When Emil went back to the living room, there were no signs of his brother and aunt Phillis. He turned to the direction of Aunt Phillis's room.
Closer to the room,he slowed down because he heard laughter erupt in the room.
" what's making them laugh like that?"
He decided to crept in without their knowing, but before he could open the door, his hand paused in the air
"Don't tell your brother, he will be devastated if he finds out. I know am asking too much of you because you boys never keep even the tiniest secret from each other. But please do this for me and also your brother" Aunt Phillis voice was clearly and sadly heard by Emil who stood at the door.
"What are they keeping from him?" he wanted to barge in and demand they tell him the truth but before he could,
"I also don't want my brother to be hurt. But there are some things we have no control over. Don't worry,I won't tell." Daniel assured Aunt Phillis
Emil turned and left. Just like what his brother said, "There are some things we have no control over, and at its own time, he will get to know"
But, what if it becomes too late then !
"He will give Daniel some time and then ask him". he concluded
After thirty minutes, Emil's door was pushed open and Daniel entered. But surprisingly, he didn't find his brother in there, so he decided to check his study.
Emil after coming back upstairs, went straight to the bathroom, took a quick shower, wore his pajamas and climb to bed to sleep. But unfortunately, sleep was no where near him so he got up and went to his study.
Maybe his chaos mind will rest once he absorb himself in his work !
Daniel saw his brother's frowned face when he entered the study.
" Who dares to ruin my brother's mood !" Daniel teased
"You" Emil's simple reply surprised Daniel
What did he do now? , he looked to Emil's both ears to see whether he was on the phone.
But.......,"so he was referring to me !"
"What are you standing there for?, go and shower and be clean. Have you forgotten you just recovered from an illness !" Emil raised his eyebrows at Daniel and sneered within;
"Tsk Tsk, he's so dumb and never uses his brain"
Daniel was perplexed, "Can somebody tell him what he did wrong?"
"I didn't get to mee....."
"Its late,you can meet her tomorrow." Emil didn't give Daniel the chance to complete his sentence and cut through, as he already got the gist of what he was trying say.
"Okay, I will use the room next to the study"
"Wait!" Daniel who turned and was about to leave halted his step when Emil shouted
"Stay in my room tonight. I will get the servants to prepare a room here on the second floor for you tomorrow"
Daniel stared at his brother meaningfully but didn't say anything and strode out.
"How old is he? two years?" he turned and looked at the door on his right and smirked knowingly.
A student is just like his mentor alright !
