Austen looked at Eddy for a while before looking out of the window
“Why did you do it?” Nikita whispered
“It’s a secret” he whispered
” You’re full of surprises” she replied and Eddy held her hand
“I just have to protect you whenever I get the chance” he replied and she rested her head on his shoulder
Austen looked at them and smiled, even if she didn’t introduce him, he knows he’ll be her brother cos of their looks
He loves the siblings bond they share and that instant, he started wishing he had a loving sibling who cares a lot about him too
Till they got to their house, he never got the chance to see her face again cos Eddy blocked it completely
“Here we are” the driver said, st©pping the car in front of the house
“Thanks for the ride Mr Austen, you ba-rely know us but you helped, you’re really kind” Nikita said
” It’s nothing” he replied as Eddy helped her out of the car, that was when he got the chance to see her face again
“Bye Mr Austen” she waved and he smiled…. Her smile is just too cute
” Bye, take care of yourself” he said
“Thanks” she replied and Eddy rolled eyes at him as the driver drove him away
“I don’t trust that guy” Eddy said
*Why?, He’s kind” she replied
” And I’m saying people can’t be judged by how they look these days” he replied
” Ok what did he do to you?, Have you ever met him?, Why hate him” she replied as he guide her in
” I don’t hate him , I just don’t like the way he was staring at you, you’ll think he wants to devour you like a shark” he replied and Nikita giggled
” You’re too s-en-sitive” she said
“I don’t care , it’s my sister we’re talking about and I don’t want per-verts around” he replied
” He’s not a per-vert, I can just smell it” she said
” Oh Kita, you’re so stubborn… Ok I give up” he said and she smiled as they got into their room
“I nee-d to take a shower” she said, going into the room
Just like she knows everything about the cafe, she knows everything about the house too… She uses same room with Eddy cos it’s a single room ap@rtment,,
“Be careful, I’ll make dinner while you’re in there” Eddy said, entering the small kitchen
” Ok ” she replied

Regina’s Mansions**
“You c@m£ late” Regina said when Austen finally showed up
“Sorry mum, I just had to do something” he replied
” I un-derstand” she replied, hvgging him
After pe-cking her on both cheeks as usual, he was led to the dinning where he ate
The only thing he eats at home is breakfast and that’s not even every morning, he always eats dinner at Regina’s place
“Austen” Regina suddenly said
“Yes mum ?” He replied, looking up at him
“He didn’t hit you today right?” She asked slowly
“He didn’t get the chance, but I guess he’ll get it tomorrow’ he replied sadly
“Can I go talk to him?” Regina said
“No, you know what happened the last time you tried that, he’s not worth talking to” he replied and Regina stood to come to him, she hvgged his head to herself and sobbe-d silently
“I love you so much Austen, seeing you get hit by him everyday for an unknown reason really hurts” she said
” Mum st©p alre-ady, I said I’m fine” he said
” You don’t look like it, you’re always sad, I hate it” she replied and Austen stood, he held her shoulders
” Mum, I promise to be fine, plea-se smile for me” he said and she smiled a bit
” My treasure” she said and hvgged him ti-ghtly
” I love you mum” he said
” Love love you Austen” she replied.

Nikita’s place**
Eddy just finished ma-king dinner when BB c@m£ in with some books in hand
Eddy sighed and blocked the way
“You here to eat my dinner again?, No chance” he said
“I’m not interested in your dinner tonight so chill” she said seriously
” You ok?” He asked, letting her in
She sat beside the table and smiled cutely
“Tutor me” she said
“Why should I?” He replied
“I told you I wanna come to your school, tommorow is the last day for the exams, I have to go for it tomorrow no matter what, I just nee-d to refresh my memory with your help” she said
” You shouldn’t bother coming again, you’re only coming to cause troubles so stay away” Eddy replied
.” Is it because I asked gently?” She said
” I don’t want to tutor you” he replied and made to enter the kitchen but she pu-ll-ed him back, he fell and she sat on his belly
“Tell me you’ll tutor me” she said, landing her bu-tt on his stomach repeatedly
” Are you tryna make me vomit my stomach components?, St©p!” He said loudly, trying to push her away but she’s so strong
“Tell me you’ll tutor me” she said, jumping again
“Oh no plea-se!” He shouted and suddenly sli-pped his hands on her back, he luckily made her fall and he sle-pt on t©p of her instead
“I won’t” he said, pinning her hands to the floor
“Tutor me” she whispered like a girl, first time she’ll talk like a girl
And now he knows what Olive and Sunny were saying is true, she’s pretty….her eyebrows are full but well carved, she has a mole on her face and herl-ips is natural red
“Are you trying to s£dûç£me?, Your charms are too poor, it won’t work” he said and Nikita c@m£ out from the room
” I heard BB’s voice” she said
“Kita you nee-d to tell this baby boy here to tutor me,I nee-d to enter that school on Monday” BB replied and Eddy let go of her
She stood, breathing heavily
“He will, don’t worry” Nikita replied, sitting beside the table
” Nikita why are you always on her side, I’m your brother” Eddy complained
“She asked for just a little help, three hours tutor won’t be bad” she replied
” Nikita!” He shouted and BB laughed
” You’re the best Kita” she said
“How was your day?” Nikita asked
“Great….eat, I’ll wait till you guys are done” she said, standing up
” You should join us” Nikita said
“No I’m full, I ate some minutes ago” she replied and sat far from them
Eddy and Nikita ate silently and BB fli-pped the pages of the maths textbook around, smiling as she did
Some years ago when her parents were still alive, she used to be one of the best in Flowers high … But now some freaking idiots murdered her parents in cold blood and she had to leave school…..those FREAKING BASTARDS
As she thought about them, she got angered and hit the pen angrily on the floor, breaking it in the process
“BB are you ok?” Nikita asked immediately she heard the crashing sound
“I am” she replied slowly, rolling eyes at no one in p@rticular
If only she could get the bastards one day and kill them with her ba-re hands
But she’s sure that day is coming, it’ll surely come
Nikita went to sleep after dinner then BB moved to the table and Eddy started with mathematics
As he solved and explained the questions, she nodded, getting everything, they’re all what she did before dropping out
“English plea-se” she said and he brou-ght out the English textbook.. within thirty minutes, she got all what nee-ded to be gotten and they moved to chemistry then biology….
It only took two hours…..
“When you know a lot, why did you bother coming” he said and stood
“I just nee-ded to refresh my memory that’s why…baby boy” she smiled
” Can you st©p calling me that alre-ady?” He replied and she giggled
” Baby boy” she win-ked
” Gosh!, She won’t listen….I’m going to be-d” he replied
” Can I sleep here?” She asked and Eddy sm-irked
“No, go to your ap@rtment” he said and entered the room
BB sighed and pushed the books to another p@rt of the table, she placed her head on it and sle-pt off within minutes
“Will she still be staying?, Was she serious about it?” Eddy wondered as he sle-pt beside Nikita
He closed his eyes to sleep but couldn’t, he opened it again and left the room, just like he had thought… she’s still there, her head on the table, fast asleep
“Warrior” he smiled and went to her
“Ion know how to give be-d to strangers but I’ll be kind enough to give you” he said and walked to her, he carried her in his arms into the room and surprisingly she’s so lightweighted
He dropped her beside Nikita and covered her, she moved her redl-ips sleepily and he smiled
“If her parents were really murdered,who are they?” He wondered, looking at her face
Even when asleep, she still looks dangerous
He left the room and went to the living room, he sat on the ground like she did , he placed his head on the table and sle-pt off

Austen’s mansion**
“Normally I don’t sleep at night cos of this fv¢king persistent insomnia but now I think this is more than insomnia” Austen said to himself as he worked out in the living room
All he could see anytime he closes his eyes is her beautiful face and cute smile, all he could think of is her
He did an headstand then started press up too, various kinds of exercises just to make her leave his head but it ain’t working
“She’s not the first girl I’ll ever see… Austen!!!!…. But she’s perfect, she’s rare, how can a girl be blind but cute, pretty, perfect and ha-rd -working at the same time?” He asked himself, sweating a lot
He went into the bathroom and had a shower but even in the shower, her face is everywhere
He held the glas-s as the water streamed down his b©dy
“Did it really happen to me?, LAFS?” He asked himself
******
Next morning**
BB woke up on the be-d and stretched herself lightly, she sat up and saw Nikita beside her
“Wait…. how did I….
She looked around for Eddy but she’s not in the room
Getting down from the be-d, she left for the small living room and met him slee-ping with his head on the table
“He switched places with me?, Baby boy” she smiled, walking to him
She made to tap him gently but changed her mind and tapped him r0ûghly
“Bright it’s still early in the morning” he said, sitting up sleepily
” It’s past 7 alre-ady, get your lazy as-s up” she replied
“After giving up my be-d for you last night, this is all you could do, waking me r0ûghly” he said, glaring at her
” I’m not sorry” she replied and he made to gr-ab her but she ran to the door
“Say good morning to Kita on my behalf when she wakes, I’m off!” She said and left
“Crazy tomboy” he said and smiled, going into the room
*****
8:45am**
“I’ll st©p at the cafe, nee-d to gr-ab a cu-p of coffee” Austen said during the drive to work that morning
” Coffee again?, How can the popular CEO of MM be found in a coffee cafe repeatedly” Ray replied
” So the people who visit the cafe aren’t humans?” Austen replied
” I don’t mean that…I mean…why are you so stubborn” Ray said and Austen smiled as the car c@m£ to an halt in front of the cafe
He went in and took his seat quietly, Ray sat across him
“Hi I’m Zara, your server for this morning, what can I offer you” one of the servers said
” I want someone else to serve me” he said, looking across at Nikita
” Sir?” The server said
“I want someone else…to serve me” he replied and the server left
“The billionaire is here again” Sunny whispered to Nikita
“Really?” Nikita replied
“Yes”
“He says he wants someone else to serve him” Zara said when she appeared
” I’ll go* Sunny said and left for his table
” No…not you” Austen said
“Then who?” Sunny asked
*The girl who served me yesterday” he replied
” Oh … Nikita?” Sunny smiled
” Her name is Nikita?” Austen said
“Of course , she’ll be here in a jiffy” Sunny replied and left
*He wants you” she whispered into Nikita’s ear
” Me?”
” Go, fast, same table” Sunny said and Nikita smiled, ma-king her way to table 5
” Hi I’m Nikita, your server for this morning, what should I make you?” She said
” Did you sleep well last night?” He asked and Ray’s eyes wi-de-ned
“Boss”..”
” Shhh” he hushed and faced Nikita who also seems surprised by the question
” Oh … Well I did and thanks for the drive yesterday” she replied slowly
“I’m glad you sle-pt well” he replied and started staring at her without saying a thing again
Her face is just too appealing and enticing, it’s s£dûçt!vetoo and charming, she’s ma-king him fall even without trying
“Boss you nee-d to order” Ray said and he sighed
“Mocha, just like the one you made yesterday” he said and she bowed before leaving to make it, she c@m£ back after some minutes and dropped it on the table
“Wait” he said and she did
He started sipping slowly while she kept standing
“You should sit” he said, drawing out the third chair
“We aren’t allowed to sit during work” she replied
“I just have something to say” he replied
” Then I’m listening” she replied and he dropped his cu-p on the table
” Work for me” he said
” What do you mean?” She replied confusedly
“Become my coffee server in my office” he said
” Oh…I can’t do that” she replied
” Why?, Ok I’ll double your salary…or triple it” he said
” I still won’t, I’m happy here” she replied
” You’ll be happy over there too, not like my office is an house of sadness” he said and she smiled
” I un-derstand but still…I’m sorry but I can’t” she said and started leaving but suddenly felt his hand on her wrist, he actually held her and she g@sped
“Austen…’ Ray whispered
” I’m sorry…I just .. love your coffee so much and… I want to get to taste it everyday without having to drive here…. plea-se” he said pleadingly
She carefully and gently re-moved her hand from his hold and bowed, she left without saying a word
“I think I now un-derstand” Ray smiled
“St©p talking” Austen replied and Ray giggled

Sunshine high**
“Melissa?” Olive said as Melissa entered the cafeteria during lunch break
Eddy is actually eating lunch with Olive
She c@m£ straight to their table and took their foods
“Dogs aren’t supposed to eat in this cafeteria” she said and walked to the bin, she dropped the plates of food in it and wiped her hands with handkerchief
“Worthless dogs” she said
Eddy lost it completely this time around, he made to walk to her and just sl@p her but a masked person walked into the cafeteria and gr@bb£d Melissa’s hair harshly
“Ouch!” She screamed loudly as the person dragged her to Eddy and Olive, she was made to kneel in front of them,,
A proper look at the masked person , Eddy figured out it’s BB
“Apologize” she said in a muffled tone
“Who the hell are you!, I can’t apologise to dogs” Melissa replied and BB raised her boot to Melissa’s face,, Melissa flin-ched in fear of what it might do to her face
” Smell the aroma?, You’ll be flying to San Francisco if I hit you with it” BB said
Students are alre-ady ma-king videos of the strange person setting Melissa straight
Olive smiled, seems she figured out it’s BB alre-ady
“Apologize!” BB yelled
“I’m….I’m….so… sorry” Melissa stuttered and BB sl@pped her ha-rd across the face
” My face!” She winced, holding it
“There she is” the school securities said, entering the cafeteria
“You guys are frustrating” BB muttered and jumped on the tables as she got chased,,
The whole cafeteria scattered as she jumped over tables and poured away foods and drinks till she’s out of there
Melissa ran out, holding her face
“She c@m£ for the scholarsh!pexams and she’s alre-ady like this, when she gets admitted then it’s over” Olive laughed
” I think I’m liking her” Eddy said and Olive held his hand
” Let’s go to clas-s” she win-ked, pu-lling him out
*****
MM group of companies**
Das stormed into Austen’s office and Austen stood, re-ady for whatever he’ll do
He avoided it yesterday but today… maybe he can’t
Das c@m£ to him and hit his hands on his table angrily
“You dare call me a bastard?” He said
“Oh…. Jillian told you” he replied
” How dare you!, How dare you killer!” Das yelled
” And why the hell am I addressed as a killer!, Who did I murder!, Das just tell me!” He yelled at the t©p of his voice
” Lira!, You killed her!, If you hadn’t come alive, she’d still be with me right now!” Das yelled
” My….my mother?” He said, tears rolling down his cheeks
“Yes killer!, You took away my happiness and that’s why you don’t deserve a little bit of happiness!, I hate you!” Das yelled.
” Is it my fault that she died after giving birth to me?” Austen cried
“Of course!, You should have stayed, you shouldn’t have tried coming to the world!” Das yelled
” It’s not my fault!, Do you know how ha-rd it is for me without her?, I always dream of her and always want to see her…. Das how could you accuse me wrongly!” He yelled and Das raised his hand to Austen’s face
Austen closed his eyes, expecting a sl@p but it didn’t happen, he opened his eyes to see tears coming out of Das’s eyes too, he dropped his hand
“I regret the day you were born, I wish the day didn’t come….I wish” he muttered and left the office
Austen fell back on his chair tearfully and dejectedly, covering his face with his palm
“It wasn’t my fault” he cried bitterly
