Chapter 13 - First Normal Life?

He opened one of the big gates of the garage, and then got in one of the trucks and said "Get in."

I got in the truck. Talor inserted the key of the trucks on the key hole, and with just one twist the engine started.

He drove the car care fully through the three main gates and then we went towards the dead mutant.

We got out and he started cutting the body by a knife from the armory of the truck, I stood near him to see if any mutant was coming to attack.

When he was cutting that thing he asked "So, for how many days were you two traveling together?"

"For six days." I answered.

"For six days only!? You two are this close in only six days!? She doesn't even talks to anyone else here." Talor explained.

"Well... what can I say? For me she's like my little sister. I don't know about her though... when she met me she wasn't scared, but rather she felt safe. And when she was told to go with me, she didn't even hasitated. I think, seeing me, might had made her remember someone from her past." I explained.

"Hmm... I see. So what about you, don't you have anyone to meet aga-" I didn't let Talor finish his sentence and said "No."

After a moment of silence he asked "So what happened to them?"

I remained silent, I didn't wanted to talk about my past, I wasn't ready yet.

Seeing I'm not answering he said "Not wanna talk about it? You know it might help you loose the weight on your shoulders, right?"

I answered "I'm just not ready yet to talk about it right now. maybe sometime later? Or someday?"

"Hmm... Let me tell you about my family, and how I loose them it might make you ready to talk about it." he explained.

"huh?" I said.

"Ok then, let me start." He started, "When I was born my mother died, soon after due to the shock of loosing his wife my father died too. I was taken cared by an orphanage for 5 years. later I was adopted by the family of Carl. They took good care of me. When I was fourteen Carl's father, my adoptive father had gotten an unknown deases, he later passed on.

Carl's mother, my adoptive mother still took good care of us. I was better at studying than Carl, but he was better at sports. She loved both of us dearly.

But unfortunately, she too didn't had much time left. She had a major case of high blood pressure, though she didn't showed us but she was in constant pain. She would work as if she felt nothing of that pain, and somehow we, I and Carl didn't even noticed that. After four years had passed she died due to heart stroke, till her last breath she just did everything for us.

Afterwards, I became a researcher, I had took biomechanics. And on the other hand Carl had gotten his PhD over forging around the same time.

it was the time I met him Oliver Carter, he too had a PhD on biomechanics, and somehow he was interested on me.

He at first met me on the university of scothard in the nation of wisdom, zerokio.

He met me as another normal researcher, he tested me and then revealed his identity. He asked me to not tell anyone about him, I asked if I atleast can introduce him to my brother. He allowed it.

It was only three years ago. After which I was learning how to predict animal and human behaviour from him, though it was too hard for me, it would had taken me atleast twenty years to learn that.

and you know the rest. So what about you then?"

He had already collected every part of that mutant. So I said, "let's get going, I'll tell my story at the main building."

"Fair enough." he said and we entered the car.

after we got back into the garage, he said, " I'll refill the bio fuel areas of theses trucks and the generator, it should take me only an hour. After that I'll hear your story."

"Okay I replied and went towards the hallway.

"Angle!" I shouted when I got to the hall.

Angle came running and answered "yeah?"

"Let's go, I'll show you the shower."

Afterwards I took her to the shower. Carl had already put a towel in there. I stood outside as she started showering.

"So... do you still miss your parents?" I asked while standing outside.

After a bit of silence, she answered "No, not when I'm with you."

"Hmm... do you remember anyone else other than your mother before the accident?" I asked.

'There might be some relative of her still alive. The chances are low but, if I could find them she should be with them shouldn't she?' I thought.

Silence, she didn't gave any answer.

'I shouldn't had asked that' I thought and said "Sorry, I should not had asked that, I guess."

"It's not like that." she replied.

"Huh?"

"I remember having an older brother but, I can't remember his name, his face nor can I remember when and where I saw him the last time." she explained.

"An older brother? don't get worked up about it, you might had met him a long time ago. And that's why you couldn't remember him, maybe..." I replied thinking 'a brother? would he be alive, and why would she forget him?

She isn't that old to forget someone related to her, or did she only met him once? What ever might the case be, if he is alive he might be better at taking care of her. I should try finding him.'

after 2-3 minutes she was done showering.

"Did it felt good?" I asked.

"Yeah" she answered.

We went back to the main building.

"So... Everything is settled down then?" Carl asked.

"Yeah" I answered.

"Then let's have breakfast together." Carl said.

"Haven't Angle had breakfast already?" I asked a bit confused.

Angle was going to say something but before she could say anything Taylor and Carl said "She refused to eat without you, so we thought, might as well have dinner with you two."

I looked at Angle and then said "I see." and then looked at those two and said "What are we waiting for? Aren't you two starving?"

"We sure are." they said.
