WHAT IF THEY'RE MORE OF THEM?T here's more of them who can and will attack Joardan, and what if, one of them can successfully killed him.
That was Joardan thinking all night.
There were two demons who tried to kill Joardan, but no one succeeded. He was thinking that if his decision about the angel boy, Alex is a right one or not.
The family ate their lunch quietly. No one tries to bring up about what happened yesterday, even the maids. Veronica woke up 2 hours after she fainted. She keeps asking if what she saw is real, but Michael keeps denying it. But inside of Veronica, she knows that what she witness is real.
Michael did not want his wife to worry, so he said that it was all a dream... When the truth is, it's not.
There are a lots of questions stuck in their head, but no one can answer. Except for Joardan.
"Is no one's gonna talk about what happened yesterday?" Veronica finally speak her mind. "What are you talking about?" Michael denied again.
He's good at lying about his affair, but not good about what happened yesterday.
Joardan says inside his head.
"Stop lying Michael! Stop denying about what happened yesterday! Someone attacked us with knives on their hands! She was something evil! And she haa a wings! She flies!" Veronica said. "Just forget about that, alright? I told you not to talk about it. Because it's not real." Michael said. "It's real! She flies in front of me! She tried to kill me! We can't deny and forget about it." Veronica said. "I said stop!!" Michael shouted and hit the table with his both hands.
His mother shut her mouth.
"I said not to talk about it! And if it happens, it means the door isn't lock! No one can come inside our house that easy! So next time, we should triple check the doors before going to bed so we can avoid being robbed and being killed with a costume of a wings!" Michael said. He stood up. "I'm gonna be late at work. I've been absent for three days. And I don't want to miss another work day. So if you're going to be absent again Veronica, make sure that you're not gonna be fired." Michael said and he walks away from the dining table.
Is this really our family? Fighting with just a simple things?
After the awkward lunch, Joardan help the maids to wash the dishes.
"No it's fine. It's kinda boring here. Nothing to do. So I want to help." Joardan says when the maids don't want him to help. "Are you really sure sir?" One of the maid asks. "Do I look like I'm kidding? If I'm kidding I stop washing the dishes now. Right?" Joardan says with his sarcastic tone. "I'm sorry."
Joardan is so bored. He has nothing to do inside the house. He finish all the seasons of The 100 and he want to watch Riverdale next. But, watching a show is boring too for him, he doesn't want to die because of boredom.
After Joardan wash the dishes he went outside, to the gardens. "Yellow is too bright in eyes." Joardan says. While looking to a yellow followers in the garden. "You like yellow, you requested it to us." Veronica says. Joardan smiled to his mother. "I remember, you use to give Sally a flower, this flower. Yellow become your favorite because this flowers are Sally's favorite." Veronica added. "Who is Sally?" Joardan asks in curiosity. "Your girlfriend."
Joardan gulp when he heard about what his mother said.
"I have a girlfriend?" Joardan asks. Veronica nodded. "You and Sally are together for 2 years straight." She said. "Then where is she now." Joardan asks. "I don't know, you two broke up after what happened." Veronica answered. "happened? Why what happened?" Joardan asks again. "It's safe for you if we didn't tell you all the details about your past life. Maybe god give you a second chance so you can forget all the pain in your past. So you can start a new life. And maybe changing your name is the best decisions we ever had." Veronica said.
Yes, maybe changing his name can get things better. Or worst.
"It's my idea mom. Not yours. And Karl is an ugly name. Who named it?" Joardan asks. "My mother." She said. "Oh, okay. Why Karl? I felt like there is something about that name. You know? It's old and common." Joardan says.
He heard his mother crying. He look to Veronica and he is right, she is crying. "Mom? What happened?" Why are you crying?" Joardan asks. He felt guilty, thinking maybe he offended his mother. "I used to have a brother. My mother is pregnant when she got into an accident." Veronica says. "She was 9 months pregnant that time, but she got hit by a car, and the driver who hit my mother escape. It's a hit and run case, we never found the driver. Luckily, my mother survive, but my brother, Karl, didn't." She added. "Adter that day, my mother tells me that if I'm going to have a second child, I should name my child Karl. And you came, like a miracle from heaven."
Joardan did not expect to hear that kind of his mother's past. She had a brother that is dead, and it's name is Karl. Maybe that is the reason why he hate Karl, because the origin of his name was from heaven, or from dead.
"Sorry. I never opened up to you. You're too busy practicing football. We never really talked. And I am glad that you changed." Veronica said. Veronica wiped her tears. She wanted to be strong but she can't. She doesn't know why.
"By the way, next week. You're going back to school." His mother said. "School? The learning institute?" Joardan said in shockness. "Yes, the learning institute." Veronica said while chuckling. Sometimes, Joardan's dumbness is funny, specially when he don't know a very single detail about a very simple things, like a phone.
"But school is for boring people." Joardan says. "Well, that school isn't boring. It's fun."
Speaking of fun, is it fun when someone is laughing at you? When someone bullies you? When someone poured a colored paint to you?
"Mom?" Joardan called his mother. Veronica look to him, waiting for him to talk. "Why does people make fun of me?" Joardan asks. "H-how did you know?" Veronica said. "Did you already opened your phone?" She added. "No! Absolutely not! The code is very hard to think! I still can't open my own phone." Joardan lied. "It's just, I saw it on the social media, it's called f*******:, I guess?" Joardan says. "Why does it called f*******:? It's because there's a face inside a book?" Joardan asks innocently.
Veronica laugh. She doesn't know if Joardan is joking or not. But whatever the answer, she's glad she can laugh with her son. She remembers that her old son never talk to her, busy practicing football, busy being a popular guy, busy on having a parties. Veronica wish that this son he had right now, is different.
"They tried to bully you, because they think you have power in your school because you are a son of a rich parent. They hate people who's richer than them." Veronica answered and smiled.
People are jealous sometimes. They can't accept that there is someone better than them. That is why people makes everything so they'll go down.
Joardan is sitting on a chair, looking to his laptop. Thinking what he should do because his bored. He couldn't stop thinking about Angels and Demons. Does Alex is really right? That Angels and Demons really exist, and that black Angel is trying to kill him?
He went to the search tab to search what's inside his mind.
'Angels and Demons are real?'
He press enter and he starts finding answers to his questions.
He starts reading everything he saw. But there's a real attraction between him and a site called
'Theories about Angels and Demons.'
