Vincent's POV
I was in the living room with my brothers, when Alessio walked in dragging our sister behind him,
living room.
"What's wrong with her?" Luke asked with concern when he saw our sister's facial expression,
"She is faking it. There was an older guy talking to her. I think the girl was right yesterday, she is really an sl*t" Alessio said throwing her onto the couch, she was shaking, her whole body was trembling and something tells me that it is going to get worst.
The door opened again, this time Arjuna and his brother run-in followed by a new guy. Alessio was glaring at him. Vijay ran to our sister with a worried look,
"Ana?" he called out shocked making us all look at them, our sister was falling sideways, her eyes closing.
"This would not have happened if you kept your mouth shut" Arjuna shouted in anger as our sister was knocked out cold.
"Arjuna, stop it. We need to make sure Ana is already before we handle her brothers" the new guy ordered the brothers, they accepted his command and automatically started to take care of her and made her comfortable.
"What is wrong with her?" I ask them as I snapped out of my confused state.
"Your darling brother, just caused her to have a full panic attack, by dragging her and calling her names" Arjuna fumed in anger. Everyone glared at Alessio who still looks unaffected.
"Who are you?" Luke questioned the new guy,
"My name is Jordan, I have known these three for a long time. I will let Ana tell you my relation with her. But till then, you can consider me her brother figure" he introduced himself in a smug tone.
"It seems like, one of your brothers is not treating her right. Maybe I should take her away" Jordan smirked,
"Alright, boys. Prepare her meal, you know the drill" he once again ordered when Ana stirred.
Five minutes later, Ana woke up gasping, Jordan pulled her into a comfort hug whispering into her ears.
"Here you go. I made your comforting food" Arjuna passed her a plate of pancakes with ice cream.
"Thank you," Ana whispered as he slowly ate the food.
Three of them were watching her carefully as though they are waiting for her to crack.
"Are you ready to go?" Jordan asked her as she finished eating.
She looks at him confused, then she looks at us.
She shakes her head fast,
"You know I can't" she mumbled yet we all heard it. Perks of having sharp listening skills.
"Ana, are you sure, you can give it all up? Look at where it got you? Are you willing to go insane just so you can keep them happy?" Jordan grunted annoyed.
What are they talking about, I saw all my brothers excluding Alessio looking confused as I am. James started to stare at Alessio like me as if James was suspicious of our brother.
"Alright, I will leave now. You know where I will be and you can call me anytime. I am not giving up Ana," Jordan sighed as he left our home. The brothers stayed behind to calm our sister who started to cry again. I could feel her heartbreaking in every sob she lets out.
James's POV
It is time I confronted our baby brother Alessio, I am done with the way he has been treating our sister. I drag him to his room. I locked the door behind us as he sat on his bed. I stand staring at him with my arms crossed on my chest.
"What are you hiding Ale?" I asked him unhappily,
"Nothing" he sighed,
"You are going to tell me right now. You know what is making our sister cry and break in front of us. I want to make it right" I tell him, he looks at me conflicted.
"Just tell me and I can handle it" I rubbed my forehead,
"She is a figure skater" he dropped the bomb, making me suck in my breath in shock. I looked at him in surprise.
"I caught six months ago, sneaking out to skate with her friends. I made her choose between skating and our family. She chose us, I burned her skates in front of her" he completes. I do not know if I should be happy that he is trying to protect his brother from getting hurt, or should be angry at him for hurting our sister.
"Ale, you should tell her that she can skate again. What happened to us was not her fault. She is suffering for the mistake of someone else" I advised him,
"Okay," he nodded giving. I also told him to buy her a new pair of skates, and not to tell her that we know about her.
I want to watch her skate without the pressure of her knowing that we are watching her.
Figure skating just reminds me of my love who left without a word. And watching that sport, caused me heartache, to avoid this my brothers started to hate the sport to avoid me feeling sad. Now, this action has comes to bite us in the back.
It caused our sister suffering.
The next day,
"I told her already, she is happy, yet confused. I will be bringing her to the mall later to get her a new pair of skates. The two boys will be following us to keep an eye on me" Ale rolled his eyes at the last part.
I laughed at his annoyed look.
In the evening, I saw Ana smiling widely and she was shaking her legs as she ate her dinner, making everyone smile at her.
I sent a message to our brothers' group chat that I had something to tell them later tonight. Or rather I had something to show them. Ale made plans to sneak out with Ana to skate on the ice tonight.
"Where are we going?" Alex whined as I drove to the ice arena,
"What are we doing here?" Vin looks at worriedly,
"I am okay, just follow me quietly" I led them to the door, I knocked on it softly.
"You are here. Jordan is making her do some old routine" Arjuna whispered to us. Making our brothers even more confused.
Arjuna brought us to the side of the ice, where Ana was skating. Each movement was done flawlessly. I hear the soft gasp from my brothers as they watch her dance on the ice.
I was impressed by her flow, she is amazing. She started to pant after 20 minutes,
"This is what happens when you stop practising for six months" Jordan chided her as she drank her water. Her smile did not leave her face for a moment.
"Are you that happy to be back?" Jordan asked her softly,
"Yes, I feel alive, I missed it Jor. I feel myself again" she skated backwards with her hands wide open. She staggered when she made eye contact with me.
She fell on the ice staring at us making us to run over to her.
"You okay Ana?" I asked her pulling her up. She stayed frozen in fear.
