Forgiving Not Forgeting
"Are you sure he's your brother?"
Rose's question managed to cause a strange throbbing in my chest. If that was the truth, I hoped the answer was yes, Axe wasn't my brother. However, reality isn't that good. Who is Axe if not my brother? Someone else, is that it? Did Rose take the wrong medication to think that? There are things."Don't be silly, Rose. We haven't lived apart since I was a kid, not even when I was one year old. Axe had to live with uncle Danial because of an agreement. Didn't I tell you that?""I did, but it feels strange." Rose scratched her head, which I'm sure wasn't itchy. Oh. She must be thinking about how my relationship with Axe could be this complicated. I don't understand either. It's still a mystery, if I'm being honest no one knows the reason behind the black and white agreement other than mom, dad, and Uncle Danial. They really kept it a secret from us. Surprisingly, Axe didn't question or even engage me in a discussion about our complicatedRelated chapters
Brother Luck(not) Unread Massage
It's been an hour since Axe's eyes opened briefly, until now he's still faithful to his subconscious world. As always, Axe likes to keep me waiting. It's been three times since we've experienced something like this. Our relationship was never easy, always complicated.I let out a tired breath. I shift my gaze to the nightstand for a moment. My black flat object now caught my attention. Instantly a name popped into my head. Edward! Yes, Edward. I'll call him and ask him to bring Axe a change of clothes. Poor Axe, until now he's still wearing the same clothes we last spoke in the courtyard downstairs. It's also his fault for being so stubborn, I asked him to go back to the hotel and he kept waiting for me to end up sick like this. But the truth is that we were both at fault, if I could have forgiven him sooner. Maybe Axe would still be okay.Never mind. Everything has happened. The most important thing now is for me to take care of him so he can get better soon.I let
Brother Luck(not) Throw Up
Axe quickly pulled his hand back and gave me an unaccepting look. "You want revenge on me for almost cutting off your fingers that time?" he asked pretending to be angry.I quickly shook my head and pulled my lips together to curl into a smile. "I know what you want, Axe. You're sick, don't mess with me. I won't let you touch me."I started to lower my body from his lap. Axe was sick, he couldn't hold the weight of my body on his thighs for too long. My job wasn't done yet either, I hadn't cleaned his body even though I had wet wipes ready."What do you want?Axe gasped at the movement of my hand that pulled his hand quickly. I didn't answer him because what I did next was to trace along his arm with the wet tissue.Just imagine, six days he'd been downstairs waiting for me, six days he hadn't touched water to wash his hands."How can you stand not showering," I muttered half-mockingly. I continued to wash Axe's body until it ended at the crook of his neck. I
Brother Luck(not) The Ring
"What are you doing, Axe?" I ask as I watch him unpack the dirty jeans he woke up in this afternoon. "A ring," Axe replies as he digs deep into his pants pocket.Axe chuckles when he doesn't find what he's looking for. He laid the pants roughly on the mattress, then bent at the waist like he was thinking about something."What ring are you looking for?""The ring you gave me back."Axe spoke without looking me in the eye. He even bent down to look for the ring under the bed. Seriously, if the little thing was kept in his pants pocket. The ring wouldn't be lost considering Axe wore jeans while waiting for me for six days and five nights.Besides, why would he suddenly think of a ring. I just left him downstairs for a while to clean up his vomit.Speaking of rings. I can't help but think of that horrible night, the night Axe held a knife to cut off my fingers. All the problems stemmed from there, about my status in his eyes. And what is this? Axe was talki
Brother Luck(not) Kisses
"Axe!" I called excitedly. I smiled from the elevator. Of course, I have good news for him. Axe must be happy to see his ring with me. However, my smile was forced to disappear when I opened the door and found him lying on his stomach under the bed. He doesn't seem to be in the mood to do anything."Axe," I called cautiously. I crouched down beside him as I gently stroked his back from top to bottom, and so on."I have something for you. Want to see?" I asked but didn't get a response from him.I sighed heavily. Axe looked more like someone who was heartbroken after being left by a girlfriend than sad about losing a favorite object. I couldn't imagine if he knew that at his age, he already had a child and was still acting childish. I'm sure he'd feel ashamed of herself."This is your ring." I placed it in front of him. Axe immediately got up and changed his position to sitting. His hand quickly grabbed the ring, then looked at the inside carefully. It seemed lik

"Wake up," the soft whisper that sounded so close made me blink a few times. I felt something rough touch my back and a repeated peck on my lips.Who was trying to disturb my peaceful sleep? I moved to tighten my embrace on the warm body, trying to get rid of the endless disturbance that continued until now. "Wake up, Bridgette!" The call never provoked me to open my eyes. Instead, the distinctive scent of cologne became a calming therapy in the morning. My breath felt fresh even though my eyes were still closed so perfectly."Don't tease me, baby girl. I can stab you back if I want to."That sentence successfully made my eyes open wide. Oh my God!Axe!How could I forget I was with him. "Let go." I pushed away his hand that was busy stroking the skin of my back. I quickly got up to change my position to sitting. Unfortunately, I also forgot the state of my body. I was still wearing nothing after making love to him last night. And now he's loo
Brother Luck(not) Trouble Maker
"You see that shameless man. He came here to annoy me!"I immediately looked at the person Rose was pointing at with such fiery anger. Wait a minute, I memorized that posture. Isn't he...Theo?My mouth dropped open to see him here. Why is he stranded in Canada, shouldn't Theo be in Italy considering he is a native Italian."Do you know him, Bridgette?" asked Rose noticing my unusual reaction. I just nodded in response to her."What the hell are you doing here?"The question was not from me let alone Rose, but the now fully clothed man standing right beside me, Axe."You too? Why are you here?" Instead of answering. Theo turns around and asks. Soon his eyes blinked in disbelief. "Jesus, man, you're still alive. I thought yesterday was the last day you were in a coma," Theo joked, walking up to Axe. Instantly he forgot the trouble he had created this morning at Rose's apartment."Damn it!" swore Axe as he let go of Theo's embrace because he felt uncomf
Brother Luck(not) Misunderstood
"Come on, Aunty. Let's go get daddy." Oracle continued to pull my hand towards the room that Axe and I were currently staying in. The little boy couldn't wait to get together for dinner. I had just invited him and he eagerly said yes."Good job, Ed. Make sure he doesn't act up after returning to his habitat."I could faintly hear Axe's voice talking to someone. Of course he was talking to Edward on his cell phone. Their conversation was serious, from the cold tone of Axe's voice. Who exactly were they talking about?"Axe?"I thoughtlessly pressed the door knob of the room and found him standing in front of the window. Axe immediately turned off his cell phone, then walked over to me and Oracle."Are you ready?" Axe asked Oracle, who was now in his arms. They looked very affectionate towards each other."Who are you talking about, Axe?"I didn't want to waste the opportunity to ask him. I had to know who and what Axe was doing.Axe didn't answer yet. H
Brother Luck(not) Rose's Secret
"I'm sorry, Bridgette." "Because of me, your secret might be revealed soon."I understood what Rose meant. Her words about her purity being taken away still bothered me. I think Rose was ready to interpret her words that I didn't understand."I'm sorry for not being honest with you all this time.""Bridgette, the truth is that I - I don't really serve men who come to the club. My dealings with my clients are just arm-twisting. You know what I mean?" A nod is all I give. The rest of the time I let Rose speak her heart out."I made an agreement on a stamp that they agreed to because my clients are not ordinary people. They are classy and know their limits.""But your brother and his bastard friend came to ruin everything I've kept all these years. I kept my chastity because of my principle all along, no s*x before marriage!" The vengeful look in Rose's eyes left me speechless.It turns out that all this time, Rose had kept a big secret from me. Why? Am I n
