"He is like a brother to me."
Serena answered Serah’s question as Christopher stared at her blankly from the staircase, standing not too far from where the ladies stood he was still unnoticeable to both of them.
She thinks of him as her brother? Never before Christopher met the type of her before. It felt weird to hear that of course.
What type of woman she was really?
"Also you don't have to worry about me. Worry about yourself!"
Serena's next reply was surprisingly bold, which caused Serah's vessels to heat up while her eyes enlarged immediately.
Serena started talking coldly then.
The attitude he
Sitting on the passenger seat adjustably, Serena chewed her lips looking out of the window as the cold silence surrounded in the closed vehicle of two individuals.Consisting her and her brother-in-law, the vehicle was filled with speechlessness.Her brother-in-law on the driver's seat had his rude eyes glued on the streets while he drove through with seriously.On the other hand was she, who tried to be comfortable on her seat yet still feeling silent anxiety building up in her!She dared not to break the silence. It was indeed a surprise for her that he offered her a ride but also it was her kind of relief too.She wasn’t complaini
MEANWHILEClenching his fists on the steering wheel to the point where his knuckles turned white to the tightest grip, Christopher had a lot going on inside his head.He was indeed one hot headed man.While his mind being a total manifestation, Christopher loudly cursed hitting his fist on the horn in clear frustration then.His features hardened aggressively, it all happened in a matter of time. He didn’t plan to kick her out!The thing which angered Christopher wasn't about Serena's what-abouts at all, his mind at that time just couldn't take any disobedience when he was angry.
The rest of the day, Serena didn't come out of her room. Whereas Christopher sat on the living room's couch busied himself with his job.Working on his songs, he seemed quite disturbed while pinching his temples.Trying hard to focus on his work, Christopher tore one another paper from his notepad and bawled it up before throwing it on the floor messily, the 16th time.The living room was a such mess.He ruffled his hair as a low pitch dark growl felt pass his lips in utter frustration, he chewed the pen's end which he was holding while concentrating deadly on his upcoming song he had to release this week.He was struggling so hard to comp
Getting out of the bathroom, Christopher was half naked. With a towel wrapped around on his wet torso loosely he walked out towards his closet calmly when suddenly someone barged inside his room without even bothering to knock. His attention was diverted by the man of young 25 who had serious expressions drawn on his features with a look of unpleasantness.Joshua Ravero...Christopher's boon friend was he.The one he called to cook tonight..."Fuck you Chris, you had a woman over and you didn't even tell me!"Joshua cursed obviously being taken aback while meeting Serena downstairs.He wasn't expecting anyone here, to be hon
Serena arranged the last utensil on the dining table after laying the dishes on the middle with table manners, when soon the door of Christopher's room opened.Getting out of the room, the sound of footsteps indicated the two men.Christopher walked and behind him, his boon friend Joshua followed quietly.Awkward was he.While chewing his lower lip in silent guilt to discover the tragic identity of Serena with whom he spoke to earlier, he absolutely had no knowledge about who she was before...Joshua was indeed feeling bad for her.Christopher approached the dining with no formality before pulling the head chair and se
Finishing the dinner, the other two got up from their seats to proceed towards the kitchen again to wash the dishes.Giving a hand by holding the dishes Joshua helped Serena from behind who was holding Christopher's half completed meal.Serena leaded towards the sink first before putting on an apron and starting to wash the dirty utensils.Joshua got alerted by the sound of the water."Hey, let me do it!"Joshua offered like a gentleman while shaking her head off Serena politely refused to take his help."You have done enough by making dinner for us all. Let me do it!"Serena replied with a small smile decorated on her feature hinting it would be fine with her.
NEXT MORNINGSerena got out of her room tying her long wavy hair up into a messy bun while at that very time Christopher's room unlocked in the opposite, startling Serena.Wearing an arrogant silence like usual times Christopher crossed her ways as if he didn't even see her but the case was not same with Serena who decided to be polite.She greeted him, gaining his attention."Good Morning Brother-in-law!"But obviously not following the same gesture, Christopher just hummed blankly to her with a single nod.Serena didn't hold any complain against his behaviour as she knew that he was
Her chocolate brown eyes looked around her silent surrounding in judgement without any word. Soon sighing tiredly she massaged her nape drawing her head a little to the side of right.She was exhausted after cleaning the entire leaving room in a row after making the breakfast and getting done with the kitchen chores.Though the apartment needed no more modifications for her but yet she refused to do nothing and sit back.She stubbornly found every little work, wanting to keep herself busy somehow. That is all she had been doing since last few days to be honest.Acknowledging the fact that her brother-in-law wasn't one person of home, Serena knew he wasn't going to mind her doing nothing at all.
