CHAPTER 37&38
There was silence afterwards.
Thickening. Weird.
“Okay, you two should know each other better. Erico, she’s Erica’s mirror. Cling”Granny stood up, Eric stood up too.
“Granny, let’s leave. You’ve been out here for hours”he said.
“Nonsense”she hit his head again.
“Granny,”he groaned and she knocked him harder.
“füç?”he cursed.
Charlie giggled and Alex chuckled a little.
Can granny just break the idiot’s head?
“Charlie and I will leave you two. Know each other better, we’ll be back”granny told Eric and turned to Alex, touching her chin.
Then she turned to Charlie.
“I have lots of fishcakes, darling. Let’s go”she said.
“Yay, love you granny”Charlie gushed, they walked away.
Alex didn’t look at Eric as he sat down. Both made sure they didn’t body gum.
She slowly ate the remaining fishcake, murdering him in her mind.
Eric got busy with his phone, he didn’t even act like someone was beside him.
Well, he’s a proud jerk anyway.
Granny, Charlie, late Erica and every nice person wouldn’t have been his relation. In fact, how Alex wishes he was born in the gutters.
No one talked for another five minutes. That’s not Alex. She’s not someone calm so she talked first.
“Big dad, never knew you were that nice”she looked at him, mockingly.
“Never knew you’d keep quiet for five minutes, you’re growing”he replied, raising his head.
“Your sister was Erica. Gran said it was an accident… I’m sorry”she looked away.
She’d have scoffed, but then, it’s about Erica.
Eric looked at her and looked away too, looking at his phone.
“The next summer after we’d met you, months before our nine years birthday, we went to Nyack and coming back home, we had a severe accident. She died in the car, mom died after two years hospitalized”he said.
“So, you knew me before now”she said.
“And so?”he questioned.
“Jerk,”she glared.
“You’ll never stop cussing, Kissmate?”he glanced at her.
The eye contact lasted for more than they could count.
Pride vs Crazy.
Then their lashes went to each other’s lips.
Like planned. Like pre-said.
Like both had the same thought.
And yeah, the thoughts were the same.
How does it feel like to kiss an enemy the second time?
If one kisses the other the second time, will it be the same as the first time?
Should they really kiss?
As these crazy thoughts filled their heads, they leaned.
Unintentionally. Without meaning to. Unwittingly.
Their faces got close, their lips almost met.
They lost it.
Until…
“I bet you naughty kids are really getting along,”Granny nodded before them. Charlie stood beside her, giggling.
Alex and Eric’s hate stare returned, they moved away, turning from each other.
“Big dad, you almost kissed aunt Alex?”Charlie gleamed.
“Shut up, Charlie. What you’d know?”he snapped.
Alex cursed herself inwardly, then she switched into cursing him.
He needs that curse not her.
“Nothing,”Charlie zipped her lips. She walked to Alex and sat on her laps, the latter blinked.
“You smell like big dad. Granny told me Erica smells like roses too”she sniffed Alex’s shirt.
“Yeah, but I don’t smell like him, okay. I’m me”she said, giving Eric a weird stare before looking back at Charlie.
Granny sat in their middle, holding Eric’s hand, he stood up.
“Can we leave now?”he asked.
“Not yet, Erico. Sit,”she looked up.
“You’ve been out for hours, it’s time you rest. You shouldn’t even be here,”he frowned.
“I want to. Stop being like your mother”she scoffed.
“füç?,”he ruffled his hair, mumbling the curse word silently.
Alex checked her phone and faced Granny.
“Gran, it’s past five pm, I should stroll home,”she said.
“Just stay for a while. Please my love, hmm? For a minute?”Granny said, Charlie pouted too.
Alex nodded once, giving up.
Eric was forced to sit. Now, Granny’s in the middle.
“You’re a student?”Granny asked Alex, a nod was the reply. Eric pinched his middle brows, knowing where this was going to.
“School?”Granny continued.
“Stars… I mean…”Alex widened her eyes realizing too.
“You’re in Stars High. Erico is in Stars High, so tell me why you won’t know him? You wouldn’t wanna tell me you’re not classmates, I guess you’re eighteen, Alex. Even though Erico doesn’t stay in class— I know he doesn’t, but I guess you both know each other. Erico is crazy, so I won’t ask him. But Alex, this is for you, why did you deny knowing him? Why do you hate him?”Granny asked.
“Granny, damn!”Eric seethed.
“Hush, my dear”she cautioned and faced Alex.
“Gran, not like… I can’t… you just won’t understand”Alex said, ruffling her hair.
Gawd, Gran!
“You can tell me, auntie Alex”Charlie butt in.
“You’re a sweet girl, darling. On our little walk, Charlie told me how you helped her get Babu, and here you are, being my hero. Erica was a sweet girl too. Despite her stubbornness, she’s always in for everyone’s happiness, except Erico of course. I wouldn’t want you like that. Again, Erico is crazy, but he’s the sweetest boy ever. When he was young…”Granny said.
“Why’re you telling her all these? What the hell is she doing here?”Eric snapped.
Alex smirked at Granny. “Tell me more, Gran”she said, if hearing his little childhood secrets will annoy him, she’ll hear.
“You…”Eric almost flared up but Granny held his hand, rubbing it.
“You wouldn’t want to upset granny, Erico. Just stay calm”she said.
“Big dad, please. I wanna hear your story again”Charlie worsened the case, the glare he gave her made her jump down from Alex’s laps, going behind her.
“Now listen… When little, Erico loved to braid hair, he was always looking for a female’s hair to braid. At two, he already knew the difference between a man and a woman. Erica never lets him touch her hair so he takes it all on his mother. If she doesn’t want that, he gets real mad that he wouldn’t let anyone touch or carry him…. Not even his mother”
“füç?, füç?… Fu… ck. Aish sh… it”Eric muttered. Alex laughed for real now, then Charlie.
“He loved doing things his way, at four, he secretly tasted his father’s drink, Dom Pérignon and since then, he has never done without that champagne. Growing up, he fell in love with drumming, he never liked summer because he never wanted to visit us, grandpa punished him severely anytime he acted rockheaded”Granny said and hit Eric on the head again.
Her phone rang and she checked it.
“My driver is almost here,”she said.
Eric frowned. “Driver? Are you leaving today?”
“Hmmm, that’s exactly why I’m still here. I miss Nyack”she smiled.
“Granny,”he blinked once.
“Don’t worry we’ll visit again, Alex is the reason we’ll do that, not you, rockhead”she took his hand, then she took Alex’s hand too.
“I wanna come back next time to see that your bond is tightened, okay? Erico, you should be glad that you have Erica back to you, you shouldn’t treat her like the past. I felt hatred earlier”she said.
“Gran, there was nothing earlier,”Alex argued.
“I felt it too”Charlie chipped in, body-gumming Alex.
“Promise me you two, that I’ll come back to New York meeting you two as close buddies”Granny said.
“Granny, you’re getting old”Eric rolled his eyes.
“Promise me,”Granny insisted, a black Audi parked before them.
“Granny, our car,”Charlie stood up. She hugged Alex, running to the car without saying anything.
“Promise”Granny looked at the ‘couple’
“Fine, promise”Eric scoffed.
“Yeah, promise”Alex scoffed too.
“Good. I hope to see you again, Alex”Granny stood up. Her driver walked out of the car, taking her bag from her leading her to the back seat of the car.
She waved them one last time before entering.
Alex waved back smiling a little, Eric didn’t bother doing that.
The Audi drove away and they glared.
“Granny is old”
“Gran is aged”
They said simultaneously.
“Good, thank fúck you know”he stood up, she did too.
“füç? off”she rolled her eyes and walked away. Eric took another route.
•Alex’s Home•
Alex walked in, she stopped and sniffed the air, smiling.
“Momma?”she called, going to the kitchen.
She stood by the door, folding her arms.
Christy backed her, humming to herself as she fried chicken.
“Hmm, I smell chicken. Ahhh”Alex shut her eyes, enjoying the air.
Christy turned to her and jerked.
“Alexa,”she muttered.
“What?”Alex pushed herself to stand straight, she unfolded her arms, walking to her mom.
“Am I scary?”she added.
“You’re back”Christy muffled.
Alex nodded, she opened the fridge and brought out cabbage, winking at her mom.
“Let’s add salad,”she pouted.
“Oh,”Christy nodded.
“Momma, I’m no longer angry. And I’m sorry about yesterday, I was being an arsehole”Alex hugged her.
She immediately hugged her back like her life depended on it. Like she’s been waiting for this day.
“I’m sorry too, baby”she muttered, rubbing her back.
“Don’t mind me, a student used that against me, so I couldn’t hold it in. Again, I’m sorry”Alex broke the hug.
Christy sniffled in.
“Don’t try it momma, it’s not even touching”Alex blinked.
“Hmm,”Christy smiled and turned her back on her, getting on with her frying.
Alex smiled and went back to the cabbage. In no time, she washed it.
She started cutting it, stylishly glancing at Christy. Christy in turn, didn’t face her.
She’s crying quietly.
“Momma,”Alex groaned and walked to her, turning her. She blinked as all the tears of the world filled Christy’s eyes.
“The füç??”she muttered.
“I can’t… I can’t hold it in,”Christy hiccuped.
“Take it in, tears are for the weak”Alex hugged her. She reciprocated.
“I love you, Alexa,”she whispered.
“Me too, Momma. I love you so much”Alex whispered softly.
•The Next Day•
•Grande Robotics~Robotic Room•
“It’s so human-like, CEO, maybe I should say HE is so like a human. Gawd”Joanne gushed, walking with Thomas.
“Is he alive now? Functioning?”he asked.
“Not yet, he’ll reboot in a week”she replied.
“CEO, do you think this is a nice idea? What if after everything, Young CEO finds out he’s a robot? We don’t even know if he has the same quality young CEO thinks of the Sharmer King to have”a man joined them.
“It’s a matter of trying. If luck is on us, fine”Thomas replied.
They got into another hall— a robotic world.
Scientists and staff in astronaut-like wears walked to and fro, testing out new robotic equipments.
Robots, screens, machines filled every corner.
Joanne led Thomas and the other man to a glass— there’s not a sign of a barrier or anything and everything inside is visible that no one is gonna know there’s a glass— her face was scanned and the glass opened.
Well it’s same, like nothing happened.
They all walked to an enclosed panel. In that glass, there’s someone.
Someone connected to cables and wires, eyes closed and dressed in iron. He looks exactly like someone.
Like the Sharmer King.
•Stars High~Senior Class•
“Y’all know about the night party on Friday? Guess what? Everyone of you is invited!”Ana screamed.
She’s standing on her desk, twirling her moderate ass.
Her fans screamed and whistled, touching her.
“No dance show that day. That night will be more than dancing. You’ll rock, and füç? and drink your brains out! Whoop!”she continued.
•Ana you’re the best!
Isa sat where she was, with her head on her locker. Mira watched Andrea as he stood up, slinging on his backpack.
She frowned, wondering where he was going.
“Oh my gawd, Grand Hottie is playing basketball today!”a girl screamed, hitting her locker.
Others checked their phones, screaming.
•That’s why Andrea went out. He went to change into his hot basketball suit!
•He isn’t here, let’s scream his name
•We love you, Andrea!
•What about DR? DR is the best! He’s not like Grand Hottie Proudie or Andrea. He’s nice!
•Eric Grande is my everything
Alex looked at Cathy, then Rhapsody.
“Dudes, I’m watching no basketball game”she whispered.
Rhapsody laughed, Cathy chuckled.
•Later~Basketball Hall•
Uproar of screams filled the hall, cheerleaders ran around chanting the ‘The Vultures’.
Rhapsody didn’t play this time, she joined Cathy in the spectators chairs, screaming and hugging her.
Cathy got tired.
Derek blew kisses at his girl-fans, jogging to the girls.
“Hey, Princess”he winked.
“Oh,”Cathy mumbled, bowing a little.
“Stop bowing, he’s an arsehole”Rhapsody winked and broke the hug, walking away.
Derek crossed his arm around Cathy’s shoulders and the weight alone pressed her down.
“We’re project partners, it’ll be fair if we do things together before then. Let’s walk, shall we?”he winked.
She didn’t look up, instead she hiccuped.
“Hey, look up”he frowned.
“I… I’m sorry, I can’t”she muttered.
“Why?”he removed his hand, standing in front of her.
“I don’t know”she bit her lips.
Derek rolled his eyes and bent to her level, relaxing his hand on his laps.
“Hey,”he whispered.
She shut her eyes tightly.
“You’re pretty,”he said. Cathy’s eyes snapped opened.
Meanwhile, Eric walked out of the hall, pushing anyone who comes his way.
His eyes blazed, burned and glimmered in anger and disappointment.
He unlocked his phone, texting someone.
Andrea walked out next, Mira sneakily followed him.
•On The Road•
Alex rode on her bike, eyes straight on the pavement, through her visor.
She prefers riding all over New York than watching a stupid basketball game.
Rhapsody isn’t playing anyway.
Who’s she gonna cheer?
Okay, Andrea’s there. But whatever.
Her thoughts got distracted when her phone rang. She parked somewhere and brought out her phone from her pocket.
The ringing cut off immediately, instead a message popped up in her screen.
Grand Hottie: Come home right away.
“Home? You’re joking”she muttered.
Another message entered immediately.
Grand Hottie: It’s a MUST Kissmate.
She rolled her eyes and pocketed her phone, starting her bike.
She rode off.
•Eric’s Residence•
Alex parked her bike before the mansion and got down, she kept her helmet and gloves, walking to the door.
She heaved a deep sigh and pressed her thumb on the device scanner. The door was opened.
She scoffed and walked in.
The large living room was empty. No soul.
“Weakie!”she called.
She walked around, turning on different spots.
She saw the elevator and ignored it, taking the stairs.
•Bedroom•
Alex slowly opened the door and she blinked in admiration.
This bedroom is ten times bigger than her house in a whole.
Christ!
Money is good. Money must worship Alex. She loves CASH and she must have lotta em.
“Where the füç? are you?”she yelled, hitting the door.
She walked forward, admiring everything.
The thick rose smell, the replicator, the large, blue bed…
Everything… to the bathroom door.
She walked briskly to the bathroom since she could hear running water.
She’s not the type to knock so she opened the door, walking in.
füç?, the bathroom is paradise on it’s own. so large and great.
“Weakie?”she called, frowning. she could see the bathroom glass door. she could see the shower pouring on a tall figure and she smirked.
She’ll go open that fúcking door, see his stupid nakedness,make him real mad that he’ll never want anything to do with her. She’ll stop being his stupid kiss mate.
Alex chuckled inwardly and held the door knob, pulling it open.
Eric froze. He stared at her blandly.
under that sinful shower, he’s hot.
Too hot. His dark wet hair glowed darker, smoothed and almost covered his eyes.
Alex swallowed, she looked down at his chest. He’s got a red rose tattoo on the left side and it’s fúcking ???y on him.
His well built body…
Wait, is she seeing his glory?
Her eyes rested on his ???y, mouth watering, long cóck for a minute.
Can a dick be this beautiful?
Isn’t gawd wonderful to create such masterpiece?
The way it’s flawlessly white, with his beautiful pink cap and the fine balls…
Damn, you’re stupid Alex.
She successfully hid her nervousness as she looked up at his eyes, smirking.
“Go out and wait for me, Kissmate, not everywhere are you meant to enter”he said, his voice is magical under that shower.
Alex glared, folding her fists. Her plan didn’t work but she’s not done, her eyes went down to his cóck.
“aren’t you ashamed? you’ve got all that to yourself, so greedy of you not to share”she said, he smiled.
“nailed it”she rolled her eyes.
“Go straight to the point, Tomboy. You want a share”he said.
“What?”she clasped her legs together. Tighter.
“You want my Medulla”he replied with zero emotion.
“You’ve finally got a glimpse of what you’ve been longing for. But it’s your last time seeing it and I’m never giving it to someone like you.”
TBC..
