"Why should I go? I'm coming."
Everyone was again surprised by Kenzo. That kid is truly a miracle. There's no fear at all with Kai.
"You or I go." Kai said again still with a cold tone and a sharp look.
Kai really feels annoyed by the presence of Kenzo who talks so much. According to him, Kenzo is very loud, and noisy.
Kenzo was still looking at Kai who was now also looking at him. Then there was a sigh from Kenzo.
"Alright alright. Don't look at me like that. I will go. But you don't miss me, okay?" Kenzo said with a wink. Oh.. this boy is really brave.
Kenzo walked out of the cafeteria, while passing the Tiger kids who were staring at him, Kenzo waved his hand and didn't forget his sweet smile. "Bye everyone. I'll go first okay."
Everyone just kept silent and didn't reply to Kenzo's words. They still wonder, how there is a creature like Kenzo. What even a Kai glared at had no effect. Ah, never mind the miraculous behavior of Kenzo.
The canteen was again bustling with songs and laughter from Tiger's children.
*****
After being kicked out by Kai -but still looking cheerful even though he just got kicked out- Kenzo walked towards his faculty building. And when he saw Eric and Edward sitting on a park bench, Kenzo immediately walked towards the two friends.
"Where are you Ken?" Edward asked when Kenzo was sitting next to him.
Kenzo flashed his trademark smile and rested his chin on the table. "I'm done with my future. Hehe.." Kenzo is still smiling incoherently.
"The future?" asked Edric no .
Edward also did not understand as well as Edric. What future does Kenzo mean?
"Erm. My future, you handsome man has no morals." Kenzo spoke with a smile that never left his lips.
Edward and Edric are surprised to learn that Kenzo has just met Kai. Edward immediately stood up and pulled Kenzo's body to join him. With a panicked face, Edward checked all of Kenzo's limbs.
"Is anyone hurt? You're not okay with them right?" Edward asked, still looking panicked.
Kenzo, who feels dizzy being spun around by Edward, can only sigh tiredly. "Haha... Ed! I'm fine. Still complete without any scratches."
Edward looked at Kenzo again with a worried look on his face. "Really?" Edward is still a little hesitant.
Kenzo nodded and still had a sweet smile on his face. Oh.. if smiling can cause diabetes maybe Kenzo's blood sugar has gone up.
Edward and Edric looked at each other, and the next second they chuckled. Yes, how stupid they are. If the Tiger gang had harmed Kenzo, then that nagging brat wouldn't be here with a big smile on his face.
As long as they sat in the garden, Kenzo couldn't stop smiling, even his smile was wide.
They sat for a while in the garden and Kenzo was still with a big smile, he was happy every now and then. However, suddenly Kenzo felt someone hit his head. Reflexively, Kenzo turned his head to glare at the culprit. Ooooh. But what is seen is not his fierce face, but his cute face which is getting more adorable.
"Ahhh! It hurts Edric." Kenzo exclaimed, stroking his aching head. Really, Edric hit his head unsparingly.
"Then stop daydreaming and don't smile like that." Said Edric who was getting tired of Kenzo who had not stopped smiling all this time.
"I'm happy right now." Kenzo defended himself by still stroking his head which had already lost the pain. But, basically Kenzo, yes it must be the circumstances.
"Like crazy, huh." Edric muttered quietly.
"Huh.. What is Ed?" Kenzo asked who heard Edric's muttering which was not very clear.
"No." replied Edric curtly, who was already too lazy to argue with his chatty friend.
Kenzo just shrugged his shoulders, then resumed his daydreaming and smiles. What a magical child.
Edric and Edward who saw Kenzo back like that could only slap their foreheads. You have to be patient if you are friends with Kenzo, who is magical from the start. Sometimes they think, what is Kenzo stupid?
Ah never mind, discussing Kenzo with all his behavior will never end.
*****
Seen a man entering a very large house, with a very wide. Upon entering the house, the man was greeted by several maids, they all bowed their heads respectfully to the man, but the boy just waltzed in with a cold expression.
"Where's Rain, Uncle?" The boy asked the butler to greet him.
"Playing with the nanny in Uncle Cris' backyard." The maid replied with a respectful bow.
The man stepped into the backyard of his house. Seen a boy playing ball with a nanny and several maids.
The man approached Rain, the boy he asked about earlier.
"Brother!" Rain exclaimed and immediately ran when he realized someone was coming towards him.
The owner who was called also smiled very sweet smiles, but unfortunately that smile was rare except for Rain - immediately caught Rain who was running and rushed to hug him.
"Rain really misses you, Brother. Why did you just come home?" Said Rain who was already clinging to Kai's arms.
Yes, the man is Kai. And in his arms was Rain Louise Laszlo. Kai's only brother.
"Sorry, I have a lot of schoolwork, so I just got home." Kai said the reason in a very gentle tone. Anyone who hears it will feel comfortable.
"Umm, but phi is sleeping at home tonight right?" Rain asked, looking at Kai hopefully.
Kai kissed both of Rain's cheeks affectionately. Yes, I sleep at home."
"Yeeyyyy, Rain will sleep with my sister later.. I beg you." Oh look Rain, who had issued his signature move when asking for something to his brother. Her puppy eyes. Oh.. so adorable.
"Hahaha.. yes." Kai brought Rain into the house. "Rain has eaten?"
"It's done." Rain replied by leaning his head on his brother's shoulder.
Rain really misses his brother, who has rarely come home for the past three years. Since childhood Rain was very close to his brother. However, due to an incident three years ago, made him have to be far away from his brother who finally decided to live alone in his apartment. Rain feels very lonely, but he also has to understand if his brother still needs to be alone. Rain was indeed still a child, he was only eleven years old. But, he has thoughts that are beyond his years. However, if he is with Kai, he will be very childish and childish.
Like now, even though his body is big but he still likes to carry his brother. And Kai will happily carry him. Kai will be a warm person when he is with his family alone. Especially to his only sister.
"You can go Jack. I'll take care of Rain." Kai spoke to Rain's nanny who had been walking behind him.
"OK. If you need anything, call me." Jack replied by looking at Kai's back who was now walking up the stairs to the second floor.
"Yes Sis." Kai answered without looking at Jack. He continued walking up the stairs to his sister's room.
Jack. A thirty-five year old man who has served the Laszlo family since childhood. Jack's entire family has indeed served the Laszlo family for generations. Jack's father was the butler—who had greeted Kai earlier—at the Laszlo's house, and his mother was a cook at the mansion.. When Jack was a child he became Kai's playmate, and now Jack is Rain's nanny.
Jack already has a wife and a two year old daughter. They live behind the Laszlo residence.
For Kai, Jack is already considered his own brother. Since childhood, Jack is the place to complain if he gets into trouble. And it was the incident three years ago, which finally made a Kai Lamya Laszlo who used to be friendly and smile smile, now a cold and untouchable man.
Few people know Kai's character first. Even the Tiger members don't all know Kai's former character. Only the core members and 1st year members of Tiger know how friendly Kai is and also his smile which is now hard to just look at.
Jack took a deep breath when he saw Kai had entered his sister's room. Jack's gaze will always look sad and worried about Kai's condition. Since that incident, Kai is no longer what he used to be.
"What should I do, Kai? I want to see you like before again. Seeing Kai who is smiling. Not like now." Jack said softly in a tone that sounded sad.
Jack turned his head when he felt someone tap him on the shoulder. And the father was apparently the one who tapped him on the shoulder.
"I'm sure, one day the young master will return to the way he used to be." Said his father Jack -Uncle Cris- who heard his son's murmur. Uncle Cris is now also looking at the closed door of Rain's room.
"It's been three years, Dad. I still don't know if Kai is okay or not. I'd love to talk to Kai, Dad. But, I'm afraid he will come." Jack looked sadly at his father who was now also looking at him.
"When was the last time he came, son?" Uncle Cris asked the child with a worried look on his face. There is a look of fear in his eyes.
"It's been a long time, I've also forgotten exactly when." Jack paused and took a deep breath. "But, it is possible that he will come again, Father."
"We really can't stop him from coming. But, we can prevent it. Always keep an eye on the young master, boy. That way, we can prevent him from coming." Uncle Cris patted Jack on the shoulder and left.
Jack is still silent with all the thoughts running through his mind. I don't know what will happen in the future, for sure Jack will always protect Kai and all Laszlo.
Tbc..
