Chapter 3 - CHAPTER 1

It's been 6 years after they moved in Columbus, Bryan continues his career as the king of the underworld, Kang continue his studies furthermore with the help of Bryan, Haru now works as a librarian at a very small yet charming library near the apartment, her salary isn't that good yet she enjoys reading books to children. Now that they have Alexie, Alexie went to preschool and after school, she will go to the library that Haru works to hear her reading stories to the children.

Today, they'll go to the mall to buy school supplies for Alexie's new elementary school. It's just a nice public school near the University so, it's easier for Kang to pick her up after school. Their apartment looked messier than they thought, there were photographs hanging on the wall, some of them were was Alexie with Luke playing. Alexie and Luke are close friend ever since they met during a party in Atlanta.

"Bye Luke! Talk to you later, I'm going shopping with Mommy and Papa to buy school stuff today!" Alexie was just sitting at her small bed. Talking to Luke on her iPad through a video call. "I believe it's call school supplies." Luke corrected Alexie. He was also sitting in his room but he just finished taking a shower and now was drinking chocolate milk. "Welp, I gotta go, bye!" She ended the voice call.

Kang woke up to the sound of a very annoying chicken, that he set on his alarm. He was thinking of following three of them to the mall but he had lectures till 5 p.m. He grabbed his shirt and wore it as he walked towards Alexie's room. After wearing his shirt, he gently knocked on the door.. "Lex? Are you awake?" He rub his eyes, he was tired, revising his lessons. "Yes, daddy!" She opened the door slowly.

Kang smiled "Well, you go take a bath first, I'll get your breakfast ready." He went to the kitchen, getting some cereal and milk. He learned a little bit cooking from Bryan and Haru over the past few years... Alexie quickly took a bath and went to her room. She wore a grey overall dress with socks and shoes. She went out of the room, just smiling at Kang. Bryan and Haru finally got out of the room. "Morning Alexie." Bryan greeted Alexie as he pats her head.

"Morning Mommy, papa!" Alexie went to the counter of the kitchen. "Here, Lex." Kang handed her a bowl of cereal with warm milk. "Daddy, are you sure you don't want to come with us?" She was drinking her warm chocolate milk. "Yes, or not my lecturer will get mad at me. You have to go to class when you're in school." He turned on the TV to watch the news. "Why, papa?" She turned over to Bryan. "So, that you can easily learn your lessons every day." He brushed his teeth with a mint-flavored toothpaste.

Haru was making a quick phone call. She wanted to take a day off to go with Bryan and Alexie. "Thanks boss!" Haru was smiling when her boss gave her a day off that day, she ended the phone call and then her eyes fixed to the TV,

"The C.E.O of CaEstates is still not commenting any of the question, regarding about a surrogate mother and girl that is supposed to be the heir of the company. The media is still unsure what to answer to the news station's candidates."

Bryan grunted as he put on a shirt with a leather jacket and with a pair of jeans. "These kind of people are always fucked up in their heads." Kang replied. "Mommy, what does fucked up mean?" Haru then turned over Kang with 'one more word then your dead' look. "Oh nothing. Daddy himself is fucked up." Haru went to the bathroom and slammed the door behind her.

"Caiden is still wanting me to find the heir." Bryan was referring to the C.E.O. "Then what did you do?" Kang washed the dishes. "I said to him that I cannot do shit when there's no proof or file about the girl." Bryan was just really stressed out by work lately. He thinks that going shopping with Alexie will help reducing stress. Haru wore a shirt with high-waist shorts with a cardigan

"Let's go then." Bryan grabbed his keys to the car. "You sure you don't want a ride to the lectures?" Haru wants Kang to be sure with his answer. "Don't worry. I'll take a bus." Kang grabbed his towel as kisses Haru on the cheek. Haru nodded and smiled at him and went to the parking lot to the car. They went for a 20 minute drive to the nearest mall.

"So, Alexie.. What color do you want for your bag?" They were at the bag store. "Purple or blue maybe!" Alexie were looking at all sort of backpacks. "Look! There's a lot of *randoseru!" Haru was pointing out on bags that were hanging on the wall. Out of sudden, there were camera flashes everywhere. Bryan then leaned over to Haru and whispered "It's Alejan Caiden. Go in and check out the bags first, I have work to do." Haru then nodded and dragged Alexie to the randoseru section. "Greetings, Mr. Stefan." An old man stood in front of Bryan.

"Same to you Kurian." Kurian is an old butler of Alejan. "Have you considered about the offer, Mr. Stefan?" Alejan took a step forward to Bryan as he took of his sunglasses. "Like I said, Mr. Caiden. I can't do work without information or any sort." Bryan crossed his arms. "Once you find the right info, you can inform my assistant, Sier."

Alejan sighed and disappeared from the place. "Papa look!" Alexie was running towards Bryan wearing a purple randoseru. "Doesn't it look nice?"

*this is a randoseru!

"It looks very adorable on you, Lex!" Bryan was just laughing at the little girl's reaction to her new backpack. "Let's go pay for it." Bryan got his wallet out. "No need, I've already done it. So, what happened just now?" Haru asked as she held Alexie's hand. "Alejan still wants me to find the girl..." Bryan just sighed. "Don't worry. I've got your back." Haru kissed Bryan on the forehead.

"Let's go buy your pencil case, Lex!" Bryan held Alexie's other hand as they three walked happily to the stationery store...
