Chapter 24 - 24

Sam ignored him. He holds sam's hand even though his hands are wet and he tries to pull him off of the couch. He tried sam's to get up but he couldn't. "I said get up!" He yelled as he kept pulling Sam's hand.

Suddenly his foot got stumbled and he landed on sam's top and they both startled as his lips landed on sam's forehead.

He get off immediately and he goes back to the kitchen, "do whatever you want, stay if you want." Larry said to him and sam got surprised and he gets up and was stunned to speak.

He felt hot and he went to the veranda and he touched the drop of rain falling out from the roof. "It's fascinating." He said as he kept playing on it.

Larry was staring at him and he smile secretly behind his back. He look at the clock and it was about to evening. "The rain is so heavy, how can you get home?" He asked sam.

he turned around when he heard that voice, "oh, can I sleep here? Even on that couch?" Sam replied. Larry ignores him and he goes to the kitchen again.

He got confused and he continue playing on the raindrops. "It's relaxing."

After he played on the raindrops he went to the kitchen and he saw larry was cooking some dinner. He look at the clock and it was already 7:00 pm. "Hey! What are you cooking?" He asked.

Larry look at him and he got startled, he quickly took some tissues and he wipe on Sam's nose, "What again. Why are you often bleeding?" He asked confusedly.

"Does my nose is bleeding again? I'll go to the bathroom to clean it." He replied and he immediately run to the bathroom.

He washed his face and nose to rid all the blood. He looked in the mirror and he saw his face seemed anxious but he tried to smile. He felt a sudden itch on his head, "Ow, my head is getting itchy." and he scratches it, he was startled that his hair fall so much. "Hair falls? Oh, maybe i'm just stress." and he smile, looking at the mirror.

He went outside from the bathroom while wiping his nose, larry were preparing the foods on the table and he sat down on the chair.

"It's all done now, eat now." Larry said as he took some water.

"How about you?" He asked.

"Taking some water." and he went back to sit down.

He took a bite on the food, "as always. very delicious." Chewing it and he smiles again beautifully.

"Stop smiling like that. Just continue eating those foods, i'm sleepy." Larry said as he got annoyed but he smile secretly.

They were eating together until they finished it.

Kairo is in his great grandfather's office. He sat down while calming himself and convinced not to get nervous.

"W.. what's wrong? Grandfather, why did you call me?" He asked nervously.

His great grandfather stood up from the chair and he walk closer to him. He patted Kairo's back as he smile.

"Good job, my great grandson, you are doing well. You kept the school neat and clean." He said and kairo smile when he heard those compliments.

His great grandfather slowly held the vase and he suddenly threw it away. He got surprised and he look down.

He kneeled in front of his great grandfather, "what's wrong? What did I do wrong, great grandfather?" He asked as he trembled and shaking his mouth.

"You manage it very well but those bully students, you can't!" He exclaimed and kairo begged for some apologies. "I'm really sorry, great grandfather, I'll make sure t.. to manage t.. that problem." He replied while still kneeling.

"Go out now! Go out immediately from my office!"

He quickly run outside the office and he got shocked. He gasped while walking out.

Larry and sam was laying in the bed, they couldn't sleep so they just staring at the ceiling. He can't move and he felt awkward as well Larry felt it.

"W.. well, what time y.. you're going to sleep?" He asked awkwardly.

"How about you?" Larry replied.

"I can't sleep." He said as he glance at larry awkwardly.

"Huh? What? Oh, I mean why?" Larry replied awkwardly.

Suddenly he went closer to larry and he got startled. "Why?" He asked sam.

"Let's play something fun. The rain was still pouring. I felt bored." He said and he closer his face to Larry.

"Uh.. oh, o.. ok, but can you just take your face away from me? You're getting close." He replied as he gently pushed sam away.

He came back closer to him again and larry startled, "what again." He asked madly.

"Let's play some games."

"What games is that?" Larry asked.

"Something fun, let's play, give me some words. I'm going to like, give me one city in Germany. Then you're going to answer me. If your answer was wrong I'll put some marker on your face." Sam explained.

"Ok, that sounds fun. Let's play." Larry got excited and he agreed to him. He immediately get off from his bed. "I'll go get some markers on the drawer just wait for me."

"Just make it faster!" He replied and he laugh.

Half an hour later they were still playing on the bed, gave me some words and Larry felt sleepy. He yawned as sam is putting some markers on him.

"What is the biggest ocean?" Sam asked.

"It's the pacific ocean." Larry replied.

"Its my turn now, Which is heavy? Coin or boat?" Larry asked him. "It's boat." Sam replied.

Larry laugh and he put some marks on Sam's face, "hey! What are you doing? I'm not wrong, the boat is heavier than the coin." Sam said.

"Are you crazy? Coin could sink on the water and the boat can float on the water so which one is heavy? It's obviously the coin." Larry said as he laugh loudly, putting some marks on his face.

Sam got pissed off and he flicked Larry's forehead.

"Ouch! That hurts." as he itch his forehead. He put down the marker on the bed and he look at sam suspiciously.

"What? What look is that?" Sam asked as he got confused and scared, "What's on your mind? Huh?" He asked again but Larry was still staring suspiciously at him.

Larry immediately push him on the bed and he fell on it. Larry tickled him and he laugh loudly.

"Hey! Stop! I don't have inhaler today!" He shouts but still Larry tickles him.

"Right, you're not going to listen, huh?" He said and he tickled larry back.

They laugh together while the rain was still pouring on the roof.

Suddenly Larry held his waist and they laid on the bed after they had some fun.

"You're lost now."

Sam said as he was on top of him.

"No, i'm not." He replied as he smirked. He quickly tickled sam again.

"Hey, stop now. Please, stop now. It's already 2:00am, let's sleep." Sam said and he laid on his spot. "Goodnight." He added and he close his eyes.

Larry tossed around and he close his eyes.

After dawn, the sun came up and the birds were chirping lovely singing. Larry got dazzled by the sunlight and he didn't see sam on his side. He quickly gets up and went outside.

He saw nothing either but he saw the food on the table prepared by sam.

"Does he came back to his dorm now?" He asked himself and he walked into the table. "It's a breakfast food." He sat down and he ate the food. He saw a note beside the bowl.

("I woke up early and I went back to my dorm, if you are going to wake up, just don't find me. Just eat the breakfast that I made.")

He read it and he smile. He starting to eat the food on the table while having a smile on his face.

"It's Sunday.. what should I do here, now." He said to himself. "Should I go home and surprise my mom?.. It's a nice idea!" he stood up on the chair, he quickly took a shower and dressed up. He put on his helmet and he drove away.

Sam was making his output on his table, he gently put some tiny things on it and he concentrated on it. Someone knocked the door and he got startled, the tiny thing that he was putting went off. "Jeez, son of bitch. So tiny this, who is it?" Sam yelled and he stood up, he went closer to his door and he opened it.

"What?" He asked.

"Samuel, don't be late tomorrow for our meeting, we have a study group." His classmate said to him, "yeah, yeah." He close the door and he went back to his work, leaving his classmate outside.

"I wish there's nobody were going to disturb me this time." He put the tiny thing on his output and he concentrated on it again. It was about to fit but someone knocked the door again and the tiny thing went off. He got pissed off and he shouted. "What again!" He went to his door and he opened it. "Wha-

He startled and he calmed down."Sam, go with me." Larry said

"Where?" He asked.

"Let's go back to my town." Larry replied.

"Huh? Why? Has any came up?" Sam said.

He quickly pull Sam's hand into him and he closes the door. "No more words, come with me." and he hold Sam's arm as they run.

"Hey! Sam where are you going?.. huh? That's larry. Why is he here?" Philip asked himself while looking at them. "Why are they running?.. whatever. I'll just mind my own business." and he continues to walk to his room.

They are in the parking lot, standing in front of the motorbike and sam gets confused. "Why? Has something come up?" He asked.

"No, there's nothing. I just want to go back home just for today. I want to see my mom. I really miss her." Larry replied.

"Then, why you need to bring me with you?" He asked confusedly.

"Nothing, if I go there. I'll feel lonely, I don't have somebody to tease with." He replied.

Sam got mad after hearing it and he crossed his arms. "Teased me? Huh? Are you going insane now? Why would I go with you?"

"Please, go with me. I'll treat you some food there." He replied and he smiled.

"But I didn't change. So embarrassing if your mom saw me like this." and he got annoyed.

"Why? There's nothing wrong with your shirt." Larry replied and he took a look at his shirt. "There's just an hole but it's ok.. just hop on to my motorbike now." He handed the helmet to sam.

"But-

Larry put the helmet on his head and he suddenly went muted.

"go now. Hop on now. We're going."

He hop on the motorbike and he didn't hold Larry's waist, "please, hold my waist, i'm going to speed up." He said as he starting the engine.

He holds larry's waist with anger and he crashes Larry's stomach, "o.. ouch, that's so very tight, just loosen up a little bit." Larry said and he drove away.

While Larry were driving, Sam shouted as he felt the wind. "Woooo! It's so cold! It's refreshing!"

Larry smile secretly and kept driving on it. "Shut up now, I'm driving!" He yelled at him.

Sam didn't hear him so he kept shouting and he laughed loudly. He suddenly stood up and he shouted again. "It's freedom! Wooo! I feel it! The cold wind!"

Larry laugh at him and the motorbike is shaking, "Sit down now. I'm driving! Don't move!" He said as he was smiling.

He held Larry's waist and he felt the wind again. "It's cold."and he close his eyes.

After several hours. They arrived there. He stops the motorbike and they get off.

He took off his helmet and put it on the top of the motorbike. Larry went inside and he didn't see anything inside his mom's house.

"Mom? Mom? Is anybody here? Mom, where are you?" and larry kept looking around and he goes back outside.

"What's wrong? Where's your mom?" Sam asked confusedly.

"Who are you? Are you auntie's lara son? Are you larry?" Other said who was passing by.

"Yeah, yes I am." He replied.

"Your mother went to town to deliver the order with her sister yesterday. She told me if there was someone looking for her I'll tell about this."

"Yeah, thank you for telling me that." He replied. They went inside of the house with the spare keys.

"It's so clean here." Sam said and he sat down on the couch, "so soft." He bounced on the sofa and laughs.

"You look like a kid." Larry replied.

"So, what are you going to do here? Your mother is not here, I want to go home. Take me to my dorm now." He said and he laid on the couch.

"I'm going to clean all the messes in the backyard, just stay here. Look around if you want to." Larry replied and took off his jacket. He went to the backyard while sam got bored.

"I'm bored!" He shout and he got up from the couch. He went to look around, he took a look at Larry's picture from when he was child. Larry's family pictures and something else until he saw some strange pic that stuck on behind the one picture. "What is this?" He asked himself.

He took the picture that got stuck, there's dust on it and he wiped it. "Woah, so much dust!" He coughs because of it. He took a closer look at it. He saw someone that was familiar with him. "Who is this? This guy is so familiar. I know this is larry's father? Then who is this?" He asked himself again with all confusion in his head.

He is familiar with it and really wants to know. "Sam!" Larry shouts and he startled, he dropped the picture but he took it on the floor and he put it back behind the frame.

"Yes?" He replied, he run into the backyard, "What is it?" He asked.

"Give me some water, i'm thirsty." Larry replied.

He rolled his eyes and he walk inside, heading into the fridge to take some cold water. He goes back to the backyard and hands it to larry, "Here! Take this now."

Larry take it from his hand and he drank it. He felt hot so he put down the glass of water and he took off his shirt.

"W.. what are y.. you d.. doing?" He asked awkwardly.

"Taking off my shirt because I felt so hot. Don't you see it? I'm full of sweat now." and he continue hammering the wood.

He just swallowed his saliva back to his throat and he felt awkward looking at larry's firm body.

"Oh, by the way.. why you suddenly turn red? Did you felt hot too? Go-

"No, I.. I'm fucking not! I'm ok.. I don't feel any heat, I feel cold right now." He replied awkwardly.

Larry got confused and he handed the glass of water to sam. "Here, take it back to the sink."

He took it and he run immediately inside.

"What's wrong with him.. Ow, it's so hot." He said to himself and he kept hammering the wood as he smiling.

"Oh, so hot!" Sam yells at himself as he is washing the one glass on the sink.

Later on, he felt sleepy and he laid down on the couch to take a nap. He easily fell asleep while holding the couch pillow.

Larry was already cleaning and fixing the broken things in the backyard. He went inside to wipe his sweat and get change but he notice sam on the couch, so he walked closer there.

"Jeez, he fell asleep without doing anything." He said and he carried sam into his bed without his shirt.

Larry put him down slowly on the bed just not to wake him up. He gently close the door. He leaves sam on his room.

He wait his mom until they got back home.

A few hours later and it was already noon, he look at the clock and he saw the time, "What time did they come back?" while looking outside.

He opens the refrigerator door and there's no food in there. So he had an idea to buy some foods for the fridge, he left sam alone on the house just for that time. He quickly went to the nearby convenience store.

Larry was peacefully buying some foods and put it on the cart from the convenience store, he didn't know what's going on there house. He whistle while picking some snacks there. He took some drinks. Orange juice for his auntie and milk for his mother. He's smiling while choosing. He saw the favourite drink so he take it. He paid for those while he's calm.

His mom went back home and they got shocked why the door had opened.

"Sis? Does we got robbed? Why the door is open?" Her sister asked her. She look down and they saw one pair of shoes and one pair of slipper. "Why does there's have a shoes and slipper here?" She asks again nervously.

"Megan, don't think about that.. let's go inside." Larry's mom replied to her.

"But sis, the door is open. Maybe there's a bad guy inside and I don't want to die." Megan said to her again and she got scared.

Larry's mom grabbed some hard tube steel, Megan held the pipe and they went inside, "Don't be nervous, I'm going to smack this to someone who robbed us." She said and they walk slowly.

She look around and she check her room but there's nothing. He open the bathroom door but she doesn't see anybody, she saw Larry's room was open and she slowly walk closer there. She took a look at it and she got startled and she looks at Megan.

"Megan!" She whispered as she gestured that there was something inside the room.

Megan got scared and she's trembling. Her hands are shaking while holding the plastic bag. "Why? Sister? There's someone inside?" She asked as he whispered.

"Yeah, there has." She replied.

"Who is it?"

"Lower your voice, might he will hear us." She replied. " There's a boy sleeping at Larry's bed." She replied.

Megan got confused and she took a look on it.

"Who is that? Maybe he's the thief. Give me that I'll hit me with that steel tube and this pipe, he sleeps here huh. Maybe he got tired of robbing here. Don't worry I'll going to beat him up and put him to the jail." Megan said and she took the steel tube on her sister's hand.

"Slowly go inside." She whispered to Megan.

When Megan was about to walk inside, larry went back to the house and he got confused, "there's two slippers here now. Is mom already here?" He asked and he went inside immediately as he was holding the groceries in a plastic bag.

He saw his mom behind his room door. "Mo-

He saw his mom's hand that had a knife on it and she went inside. He got surprised and run faster into his room.

He dropped the plastic bag from his hand. He directly went to his room and he saw his auntie was about to lift the pipe tube to smack sam.

"Hey! Hey! Hey! No, don't!" He yelled.

"No, he's a-

They turned around and they got startled, "Larry? It's you larry. Why are you here?" His aunt said and his mom got startled.
