Kidnappers love

New Bonds

This morning I woke up with a smile. I don't know why really. I did my morning routine before I went downstairs. When I got to the dining room, I greeted everybody and started eating. "Someone is in a good mood today", Brook said. I just kept quiet and continued eating. I was not gonna let anybody ruin this beautiful rainy Sunday for me. I love rain so much that I get sad when I see rainbows. I then took my rain boots and a cute fluffy hoodie and took a walk to the park. I was really enjoying it. I walked for more than an hour until I heard someone calling me. What was he doing here? I get it, he hates me but that doesn't mean that he must try to ruin my mood. I stopped and waited for Brook to reach me. "Hey, you have been gone for more than an hour. I was starting to get worried about you." He said.

"Why should you worry about me? You hate me" I said.

"No I don't! Shit...its complicated."

"Really? How? You are always mean, you always get angry at me, you look at me as if I disgust you and you are controlling at the same time. What do you expect me to think about all of this, huh? I didn't do anything to you. Even if you don't have a reason to hate me, why don't you just ignore me? Im used to it. I have never had anyone care for me beside my mom. I don't expect you to like but don't try to show your hatred to me please!" He just looked at me as if Im a ghost.

He went silent for a few seconds and said, " I have never been in a situation where I meet someone new in my life especially my family. It has always been us and dad. I am very strict about who comes into my life, and when dad told me that I am going to have a new sister, I became very defensive. It was like you invaded my boundary line without even trying. I know that you never say anything to anyone in the house but your presence still suffocates me but not in a bad way don't worry. So what Im trying to say is that Im really sorry Zen, I didn't mean to hurt you last night. I was just scared to see you with someone who could hurt you and I became really overprotective. Dad never told me to do things for you, I did them willingly. I just wasn't ready to admit that I care and I promise you I didn't mean those words I said. Please give me a chance to be a better big brother. I would even buy you ice cream in the middle of the night." I laughed after hearing his last statement but also shocked at his statement. I didn't know that's how he really felt. 

"Its okay, everyone adjusts to new realities in their own way. I chose to party" We then laughed it out and walked back home. Rain always brings new positivity in life, that's why. I have never had a bad day in a rainy day. When we walked back home I saw the guy with the hoodie again and he was far. "Brook, who is that?" I asked.

He looked at the direction I pointed and said, "Im not sure, why? He looks shady"

"I think he is following me, he is always everywhere I go and he also watches me from a distance, I don't know why."

He suddenly went stiff. "Lets go inside Zen. And now!" We then hurried inside and he went straight to Trevor's room. He was acting as if he just saw someone being murdered. Anyway I went room and started studying as I have school the following day.
