I see the anger in CJ's eyes when I enter his office.
He immediately stands up. "What now!"
"Do I look like some freaking kid to you!" I yell.

I taunt. "You hired some babysitter to follow me around? What now! Are you stalking me!"
I'm so pissed he hired someone to follow me around without informing me.
He laughs. "You're so full of yourself, Terra!"
"Why? Why did you hire him to follow me around! You think I'm some criminal? You have something on me?"
"I'm protecting you."

"From What?"
"From my brother."
CJ resumes to his chair and heaves out a sigh.
"Your brother?" I'm startled.
"Eli."
^^^^^^
So, from the little CJ has told me, Eli is CJ's little brother.
