"James, go with them. "He ordered James.
David interrupted, "Boss, you are not coming with us."
"No, I will pick up someone first. " Ezekiel said.
"Oh your girlfriend right? Okay.. okay.. " he said and took Mr. Winston with him and walked towards the car.
But James stood there and raised his brows. Keil, didn't deny? He didn't know much about their feelings but he was sure that they were not in any relationship.
"Keil, you and Kiara.." James hesitated a bit.
"She needs protection, right now."Ezekeil cut his words. "Now go. "
James nodded and followed them.
...
Ezekeil returned back in daze. Even though at that time, he didn't flinch, still he was seriously not looking forward on seeing those gross things again. It made him feel very uncomfortable right now.
And on top of that, the same betrayal thing, the same killing thing, everything tonight reminded him about his parents death. About his revenge. And he really felt very, very uncomfortable.
When he entered Kiara's room, he found her asleep on the couch with an open magazine on her legs.
He felt his mind clear up a little by looking at her. He went to her and picked her up and put her on the bed, covered her with the blanket and went to take a shower.
After shower, when he returned to her room, he found her awake. It seemed she just woke up.
"When did you come?" she asked sitting up on the bed.
"Just a while ago.. How is your leg? " he asked and sat on the bed examining her wound.
Kiara who noticed something off about him, held his hand and asked, "Keil..what's wrong? " She said so gently that Ezekiel's heart felt full for a moment.
"No.. nothing. " His voice shook.
Kiara cupped his face and made him look into her eyes. "What's wrong Keil? Are you upset or uncomfortable some where? "
Ezekeil looked at her and slowly nodded his head. Then, he started shivering.
She instantly hugged him tight. "It's okay.. "
Ezekeil burrowed his face on the neck and said,"It was gross.. really gross. This deaths, blood, flesh.. Kiara I need to calm. Kiara.. "
Kiara understood it very well. Though he was a son of a gangster and a very achieved young man in that field, it was mostly about his brain. Being physically weak, he never took many lives from his own hands, but that whatever incident happened with him, made him do so many things he didn't think of.
If it was someone else, they would have broken.
"You know Keil, you are really strong. More than you can imagine !"
Keil looked at her face. Their faces were literally an inch apart. But just then Kiara moved forward to placed a soft kiss near his lips ,on his cheek.
He froze. Completely froze. After a good few seconds, he heard Kiara wishper,"Shall we go? "
He came out of his daze and averted his gaze and nodded. But Kiara saw his ears that had turned red.
She chuckled. So cute!
...
In the car.
She didn't bring up the kiss or anything again.
He didn't start to talk about anything.
So she started," Huh.. now I will also be able to help you guys... OMG.. am so excited.!!!"
"First you need to get well, then we will see. " Ezekeil snapped.
Kiara nodded, but felt something odd.
Ezekeil always acted like he didn't want to talk about this topic. Did he not want her to join them? Then why did he share their secrets and all? Anyways some thing was odd and she was sure of it.
