Brother Luck(not) Sadness
I opened my eyes slowly. My head felt dizzy after trying to remember the incident at Axe's penthouse. Two scary-looking strangers stared at me sarcastically. They threatened me into standing in the corner of the elevator in fear. I could see them smiling wryly before I lost consciousness, and when I woke up. I realized my hands and feet were tied to a rusty blanket. The ceiling in this room also looked unkempt. Some dirt and worn colors on the walls indicated that I was in an abandoned building. Did Axe kidnap me to get here? Why?I was jolted from my empty thoughts when I heard the sound of several people approaching. My breath hitched in alarm when the door was violently kicked in, revealing several people with masks covering their faces. One of them lifted my chin roughly. His dark brown eyes stared vengefully at me."This is my luck. I've been waiting for this for a long time. Take my revenge to him!" That triumphant voice managed to confuse me. I didn't know where I was and who I
Brother Luck(not) Gone
"Axe, watch out. Akh!" I shouted followed by a pain that gripped my stomach. I watched for a moment as Axe managed to dodge Gorson's bullets by using one of his opponents as a shield. Gorson was wrong if he thought Axe became weak when the man's weakness was hurt by him. On the contrary, it was that weakness that made Axe this tough. All of Gorson's masked troops were cut down by him. Only Gorson was left lying weak with a battered state by Axe and the haughty woman who had left this place when the chaos occurred.Axe limped over to me. Occasionally Axe's body seemed to stagger while holding his stomach. "It's alright. You'll be fine," he said weakly as he untied my hands and feet."I can do it myself," I said as Axe prepared to lift my body. He was already badly injured. There was no way I was letting him hold my weight anymore.But the moment I set foot on the floor. I felt a violent contraction in my stomach. Something seemed to flow from underneath my body. I looked down at my fe
Brother Luck(not) Lies
"Can mom ask you something?" she asked in a stifled voice.Switching topics, I thought. But I nodded anyway, albeit hesitantly. Hoping it wasn't a difficult question I was about to receive."Who got you pregnant?"Boom! My head felt like it was scalded by mom's question. What should I tell her now? I can't possibly tell her the truth. She'll be disappointed, not only in me but also in Axe. Even to herself."I don't know, mom. I was raped, the guy just left me." I stare straight ahead. I don't know why the lie slipped perfectly from my lips."Are you sure, honey?" mom asked reassuringly. I nodded slowly. I think mom knew I was lying. But she just silently let the lie run its course. Maybe she realized I needed a break from the bad thoughts that haunted me."All right. Now you should rest. The doctor said you shouldn't be exhausted. You lost a lot of blood after-" As if realizing something Mom stopped and looked at me skeptically."After what? Is my baby okay, is it still there?" I asked
Brother Luck(not) The Power of Love
I took a deep breath at the bustling atmosphere of the hospital cafeteria. I quickly made my way to the cashier to pay for my breakfast. I couldn't leave Axe in the ICU room by himself for too long, afraid that something untoward would suddenly happen. As I was preparing to leave the place, my eyes accidentally caught a middle-aged man who had just met me a few days ago. The man smiled warmly and greeted me who was standing stiffly in front of him. "Good morning too, Uncle." I returned his smile hesitantly, a little confused as to why he was in this place."Why are you here, Bridgette?"I should have asked him that. But it seems Uncle Danial had some business and we just happened to meet here."Axe was shot and put into a coma for saving me, Uncle."Uncle Danial looked shocked at my words. His eyes moved out of focus when he heard me mention Axe's name. He didn't seem to believe what I was saying."When?" he asked after gaining control of himself."Three days ago. What's wrong with y
Brother Luck(not) Wake Up
"What's this, Ed?" I asked confused as the man came over to hand me a bag of groceries."Just look at it, Miss." I gave Edward a serious look then pulled out the object inside the grocery bag. A slightly glittering box made me look deeply at the man who was still faithfully standing beside me."At the hospital I told you that mister asked me to buy something for you. To replaced your two cell phones that you destroyed. I'm sorry that I didn't get a chance to give them to you."I was silent as I listened to Edward's words. Why would Axe suddenly think of replacing my cell phone that was broken and thrown out the window that time. He was the first person to take that thing away from me, please add it to his list of sins if you like."Why did Axe change his mind?""I don't know, miss. Perhaps when mister is sober, you can ask him." I nodded in agreement. Edward was right. I could ask Axe directly when he regained consciousness."Then excuse me to return to mister company, Miss.""Take ca
Brother Luck(not) Roses
"Where are you going, Axe?" I asked as I watched him lower his legs, preparing to stand up.Axe looked at me for a moment then walked slowly towards me who was still standing in the doorway. I was just about to visit him but he was already preparing to leave."I'm bored," he said as he brushed my hair lightly.Thankfully, Axe's condition was getting better after waking up from his coma. It took two days for him to recover from his weakened state, though now I can't say that he's well. Two days ago he literally just laid down in this medical room. He didn't talk much either, although sometimes I found him looking at me questioningly.I was actually quite surprised to see him standing tall in front of me. But it seemed like happiness dominated so much that I only gave him a smile."You need to rest.""I'm okay, Bridgette. You don't have to worry." Axe cupped my face with both hands. His eyes returned to staring at my lips intensely, the same as the first time h
Brother Luck(not) Shadows
I stared blankly at the door leaf of the room in front of me. After the incident at the park, I felt something had changed about Axe. He became more quiet than usual. Sometimes I'd see him daydreaming, so lost in his own thoughts. During breakfast and dinner, Axe would often play with the food on his plate instead of eating it. He was thinking too much about the events that had passed. I was afraid he'd blame himself again and do something he shouldn't do. I sighed heavily. It seemed like my duties were increasing. I have to keep a close eye on Axe and pay attention to his health. The loss he experienced made him neglect to take care of himself."Axe, can I come in?" I knocked lightly on the door. This wasn't his room, let alone mine. Do you remember the room Axe remodeled last time? Yes. After his work was done. Axe immediately locked himself in that room."Axe?" I called again. I sighed again. There was no answer from him yet. It made me think negatively, lest he do something like
Brother Luck(not) Revenge
My breath hitched as I recalled the events of that night. It seemed like my subtle rejection had an unpleasant effect on his heart. Whenever I tried to get close to Axe, he always avoided me. I could tell he was back in a prolonged bad mood. His time was always spent working, leaving early in the morning and returning late at night. The cycle was like that for two days. I didn't even get a chance to greet him with 'good morning or good night' 'have you eaten or not'. Even on his day off yesterday, he was busy in his office all day. Didn't he realize his attitude made me feel bad."Miss, the master asks you to the backyard."I was jolted by Edward's heavy voice coming from behind. I immediately turned my head, and sure enough-Edward was already standing there."What for, Ed?" I asked curiously. Didn't Axe not want to talk to me?"Just come along, Miss."I rolled my eyes lazily. I hope Axe doesn't do anything crazy.***I walked one step behind Edward. The man led me to the garden that
