A day off work.
~Dia Wealene~
"Such a relief now."
I muttered, taking a deep sigh, my eyes glued to the ceiling of the sitting room.
"We probably would have to wait until he tells us everything he knows. If he doesn't admit it, it's just as if our efforts had gone down the drain."
Caidine put her palm to my forehead and caressed it for a while. My head was on her lap, body outstretched in the couch, while she was at an end of the couch - for my comfort of course.
"I already handed the flash over to Steve. Even if the dog refuses to admit to all his atrocities, the flash would say otherwise. Don't you think?"
Instead of a response, she made a wierd sound in her throttle and nodded her head. I looked up at her, she looked worried.
"What?"
I decided to seat up, to hold her closely in my gaze.
"Did you go through the drive yourself?"
"No!"
I shook my head. 
His apartment.~Albert~"Could you tell me what you've been doing with your life, Albert?"The very husky and demanding voice came on. I took a deep breath and sighed. Here we go again. It could only be a person. My old man."You were born with a silver spoon in that awkward and ungrateful mouth of yours. And what did you do with the spoon? You melted it in the lava of your own foolishness. Aren't you old enough to choose what is right? Can't you at least be like your younger sister?"He coughed in the background. I heard his throat make a rumble. He probably just drank a cup of water. He continued,"I recently heard that you are working as driver wherever the fuck you are. Is that what you use that big head of yours for? I used to think, seeing you grow up into a fine and tough man, that you would rule the world of the girls. My wealth being a push up for you. But what did you do? Neglect a bright future for
Family House. Yorkshire.~Dia ~"Where is she?"I hurried through the super big living room with countless king size chairs. I had just arrived at England and all I could think about was her. Of course, the thought of losing her was enough to shatter me."She's in your room.""My room?"I took the risk of turning to my dad coming behind me,"Shows how much she had missed you.""Miss me."I muttered. I didn't know why I felt awkward uttering those two words. I probably would figure out sooner or later. Or better, it could be an extension of the present mood.I hurried towards the stairs and up it. Then walked through the hallway and took another turn. My father's house has fourteen rooms and several spots of interest. I had no idea what he was thinking when he awarded the architect the project.I took the last stairs and headed to my room."Who told me to ch
Wealene's Home.~Albert~"You shouldn't had missed her. She just left, point in time you drove into the compound."Mr Wealene quoted with such enthusiasm I'd only seen in my father. I guess it's like an adult delinquency. Especially the father's, when they are hunting a thing and would stop at nothing in laying hands on it."I saw her car drove by. But I was too late to stop her. She had zoomed off."I knew I wasn't sincere. I didn't actually want her to see me. If she did, that would be worse. And if at all, we mistakenly did, twould be under a very tight circumstance. A circumstance where neither of us would be able to communicate.Suddenly, the indifferent stare of her mother swept a fact past me. I was quick to grab it."Did she say where she was going?""You don't need to bother --"Before her mother could finish up the statement, her father already snatched the stance."
Later that day.~Dia~"And he pretended not to see you?"I didn't know why I found an offense in that. Probably because I was waiting so patiently to transfer the aggression, but I remembered that Caidine wasn't the best subject for this. I tamed the urge."I don't really think that's it. He seemed scared too but kept the straight face. He looked past me as though I wasn't there. That fucker was seated behind me, but what I really don't understand was why he was on the plane with me. It feels like something is fishy. Like something isn't right.""You mean he's stalking you?"I took a glance at her. We were seated at the dining table. I was at the edge of the table, backing the parlor while she was by the side to the left."That's what to think, but you know Albert. Does he have a time for that? Does he really care whether or not I'm alive. I guess he's just putting up a charade.""You can't be su
Work.~Dia Wealeane~"Hey, cop."I said over the phone, knowing fully well what I'd just done."Cop?"His intrigued voice came on,"Did I speak amiss? You sure ain't a lacrosse team player."He chuckled,"Of course not. I simply couldn't just place the sudden formality."I scrunched my nose,"You'll probably have to get used to it then.""Alright."He succumbed under the puff of the air.I seriously didn't know why I was being all cheeky with him. I just felt really light and playful that day. Probably because there's no potential threat anymore. Rowe had been apprehended and Glen? About to find that out."So, about Rowe.""Yea, about him. The reason I called.""Okay?""He wouldn't admit to the offences. And when I say admit, I mean he's still covering up for Glen. ""But you have enough evidence in the flash I gave to you
Weekend.~Dia Wealene~"And you're sure he meant it?"Caidine looked down my nose bridge to my lips. Of course she wouldn't be thinking of anything nasty. I was sure. Or probably, I was the one who needed her thoughts to be bridled."You think I would be playing around words if that isn't true? You really think I like to speak for no reason!"She chuckled at my argument, and stroke my forehead, playing with the strands of my hair. I was lying on her laps. The bond is growing tighter eh? I know right. I'm shocking myself too."He just came around and said he was going to leave Colorado because of I stopped him from working with me."She tossed her head up and down in a gentle nod,"Why do I feel like that's not all?""I felt so too, but he was even the first to bring up the kiss thing. He argued that he didn't kiss me because he didn't want to take an advantage of me. That dummy, am I kid t
On a Sunday.~Caidine~"It'll only take an hour and I'll be back."I smiled at her and walked towards the door. The brown bag with long leather rope hanging from my right shoulder to the hips."Caidine."She called as soon as I got to the door and was going to open. I turned to her."Give me five minutes."She didn't wait for an affirmation from me. She naturally wasn't used to it. And I'm acquainted with the odds.Since we were in the first palour, it didn't take long for her to walk towards the stairs, climb through and disappear into the hallway."Is she coming with me?"I muttered, not sure if that was the right inference. But I do have this strong instinct which is always very precise, especially in the times of trouble. It's rather strange, but out of all the guesses I've made all my life, I've only missed one. And that was actually lying to myself because the omen
TORQUOISE HOME. ~Albert~ "So, how did it go? Tell me about all, without leaving out any details." He was wearing this peaceful stare as he looked away from me to the end of the cafe. There was something fishy about him but I couldn't be sure yet. I'm sure, I would get to it soonest. "Yea. As you told, we met at a poolside. I must give it to you. Your guesses were very accurate." "Get to point." He smiled, "Well, she's the hard one. She wouldn't even give me an eye. You could imagine what she considered me as... a high school vulnerable psycho who had lost his parents. Like someone who needed help. You could imagine that b--" "Watch it." He held back the remaining part of the last word and pushed his head up and down slowly. He continued, "So, that's the last time we met. I couldn't wait there any longer to have her insult me or consider me from such frame of reference.
