Chapter 41 - Two Birthday Dates

[POV: TANGWEN]

"Drink this juice for now." 

A ray of my pointed look fell on the person standing in front of my fierce gaze. Dillon Alfie! A glass of juice for the decrease of my fire, he didn't even stop Aunt Harper from screening Moon's reputation but now he's acting soft on me, huh?! 

"Juice? Drink it yourself, I don't need it!" 

I grasped the juice in my hand and threw it on the floor, so forcefully. A clash and loud sound, more than 10 pieces. It was broken. All the pieces were on the ground. Seeing my face image on the broken piece of glass and there was a glint of my Brother's anger image on the pieces too. 

He looked at me with popped nerves on his face and there was tension on my face now. As a girl I may be strong but not as strong as my Bro. Such a gut-wrenching he is. He abruptly marked his palm onto the stand of the sofa. H-His face was exactly onto me. He's gonna kill me t-today?

"I heard you enough." His voice is so strange. A Heavy voice echoed through my skinny skin and before I could throw my attention from his bizarre eyes, he immediately gripped my chin and said, 

"Forget Moon! Get close to Leen Hakong and Aunt Harper! You have no mother but she. Get this one thing in your mind, Tang!" He shoved my chin and walked away with a fierce aura. Before he could step out of my room, I stood up.

Leen Hakong… Aunt Harper's dearest son. The evil personality is human. Get close to him? No way!

"That will never happen." I whispered as clearly as my brother could hear it. 

"What you said?" I lifted my head. "I said, that will never happen! I will not leave Moon nor I will ever get close to those sh*t hooligans!" He swiftly held my hand and pushed me to the wall. Pinned me to the wall. Ash, it was lively and strong. I blinked, he was looking directly into my eyes, and his hand was on the wall as a barrier. 

"Moon doesn't love you, Tang! Why are you still back to her?! Why don't you listen to me, huh?" I pushed him away as my ears began ringing. 

"No matter if she loves me or not, I love her, from the bottom of my heart." 

From the day I caught her presence in kindergarten, I decided to make her my future husband (in lesbian edition). I loved her even though she had fallen for someone. I followed her though she held someone's hand. I followed her footsteps though she followed someone else's. I loved her every single beautiful thing though she loved someone's beauty. I loved her truly, my love for her will never get down.

Maybe now she may not love me. But! Surely one day! Surely one day she will love me and feel my presence in her breath. I know one day she will give her everything for me and love me just the way Moon loves Sun. Sun promises Moon that it will come the next day and Moon waits for him every day. Just like the moon, even though I'm waiting for my Sun, I'm standing here and looking at the way you come to me. Moon Fowler. 

"You're crazy, Tang." 

Enough! I heard enough now! You should know this now, Bro Dillon. 

"I know about your Ceronidolie Pigment Test." A serious and narrowed eye of mine on him brought his tension out in seconds. He trembled and stepped back on one foot while trembling and shaking. A salt drop from his forehead slid down his cheek and dropped against the ground with a splash sound. 

It was the tension between us that took place for the first time ever! The silence broke down and he shut opened his eyes fiercely. 

"Didn't Kawin Fowler die in it? Do you know who that is?! Do you?!"

My voice echoed throughout the room and Bro Dillon's eyes stretched out as I screened my words as loud as a loudspeaker. "Moon. Moon Fowler's Father is Kawin Fowler! And you! You killed him just for your useless test!" 

"D-Does she knew it?" Of course. 

"She knows. She already trapped Bro Bleiz and Gem the next is you." 

He was wholly shocked and couldn't gather his strength to speak out. I settled on the sofa and swift my leg onto the other one. Tsh! Though I got such ruthless brothers. You had been better than both of them, Bro. You cared for me much though I've Mom and Dad who never even noticed me as their daughter.  

I guess being rich never brings you bliss if you don't have someone who loves you the most and at least sees that you exist. I remember the days when Moon was so soft to me and so kind or maybe it's just reluctant. Yet she has been, no. 

He smiled and said, "I'm ready for it. I'm ready to face my fault." I muted myself in surprise and saw him leaving the place in such a down lofty manner. What's running through his mind? If Moon really kills him then I'm surely a homeless person. I already lost Mom and Dad a long time ago and just a few days back, Bro Bleiz and Bro Gem got arrested. AI Entertainment went bankrupt, Bro Dillon is on the edge of the cliff to fall down of the Entertainment Industry. 

Everything is getting to an end so soon. The Alfie generation is on fire. Aah! I'm homeless for my family!! Moon's revenge will vanish The Alfie generation! 

—----- 

In this broad daylight, 

A clever detective like me is hiding behind Moon's window eavesdropping on the conversation she was having with her Mother or my future Mother-in-law. Aah~ that's so fast to imagine, Tang~ Sheesh, I'm blushing hard now! 

"It's your birthday, Baby! Let's celebrate it with a great dinner!" My future Mother-in-law said vigorously with a shiny smile. My dear Moon, sitting on the couch in a mood-off face with interlocking hands of hers. Something's running and rushing throughout her delicate mind. What's on you, dear? 

"I already celebrated it a long time ago, Mom." She responded with a quietude and low-pitched voice. My future Mom-in-law crouched to her knees and held her hand gently, saying, "It was the fake one but I'm talking about your real one, Baby." 

Fake one? She had two birthday dates? What's going on here? "You know right? I don't celebrate my real birthday, Mom." Why doesn't she celebrate her real ones? There must be a strong reason behind it. "I know it but how long will you keep it mute and continue your fake one, Baby." The reason is still hidden in the dusk. 

"Until my death, Mommy. The fake one is not really the fake one, right? I'm just celebrating Dad's birthday in my name. Is that worth wrong, Mommy?" 

Huh? What are they literally talking about?! I couldn't get it!! And here the biggest mistake I made was by getting confused and unfortunately, stepping on a dried wood stick which on the spot made a crack sound. What's next? Both my future husband and my future Mom-in-law put full attention on me. 

They both smiled when I was sitting down in a fearsome situation. "What's going on here, Dear Tang?" No kind smile, Moon. You're scaring me! Wah! She will never leave me without a punishment! Aahhhh! You're a lively monster! 

"I-I-I was just passing by, Moon." Passing by? You're surely lying on the face, Tang. She is smarter than you're! What do you think she won't catch you? Of course, she'll! "Passing by, huh? The road is in front of my door and you're saying you were passing by my spare window." Her face is creepy! It's surely the day I was fated to die. The Enddddddd! 

"Baby, stop jerking her out now. C'mon in, Dear Tang." Oh my goddess, Mom-in-law. I'm thankful to you for the rest of my life! I blissfully stood up but suddenly was approached by my Dear Moon's fierceness. W-What now? 

"Lucky. But you will surely have to face your punishment, Girl." 

E-Eh? You're baddddd, Moon. I hate you, get off. "Stop your baby crying face." You're the reason for it, of course. "Ignore Moon, Dear Tang." Ok Mom-in-law! I have got a lucky charm, Dear Moon. I teased her with my tongue out. 

"You stupid, Tangwen!" 

"Stop screaming on Tangwen, Moon!" Hehe! You can't raise your voice at me as long as I have my future Mother-in-law. "Stop screaming at me, Moon." I said acting a fool and provoking her, of course. I'm getting on her nerves now. Hehe!

"Ya, Tang! I'm gonna bury you in the ground!" Sheesh! I shouldn't have played with her. She began chasing with an enough annoyed face and I'm here escaping from her. "Auntie, save meeeeeeee!" As a shield I hid behind my future Mom-in-law. 

With narrowed eyes, Mom-in-law said, "Baby, didn't I say you not to irritate, Tang." 

Moon kept a surprised face looking angrily at me. "I? Irritating her? Are you kidding me, Mom?" She gave me a pointed look and narrowed one eye to shoot down me. Monster! "Auntie, she's inflaming me." I whispered into her ears looking innocently at Monster Moon. 

"My Mom's name is Lilly. You can address her Aunt Lilly, Girl." Ah? She heard it.

"Stop it, Moooon. Go, get some juice for Tangwen." Ya, ya. You should get me some juice. Mooooon. Hehe. It's funny to annoy her. 

"Why would I?" She's so mean! Humph! My puffy face absolutely grabbed my Moon and popped. Like a balloon! "Stop irritating me, My Dear Uninvited Guest." She grabbed my hand around my neck and pulled it beneath her chin. Ash, she's such a gut-wrenching. 

"Don't play with our guest, Baby." 

"I'm treating her good enough for jazz." Huh? T-That smirk… I hate it! Aah! She held my wrist and dragged me in the middle of the hallway, pleased me to the couch and handed over a juice. "Um. Drink it." Did she mix any drugs in it? I can't trust her kind smile anymore. Weird. 

"No-No thank." She suddenly leaned her head to my face and smiled brightly. 

"What happened to you? Why aren't you drinking it?" She said with a raise of her brow. That's lofty. You better know how to blow up others, huh? 

"A-A-Aah! Mommy!" My future Mother-in-law stretched out my future husband's ear as she began torturing me. Hoho! Torturing me? I was the one shooting her down. I giggled as she began screaming more and more. Don't play with me, Dear.

"You never listen to my words, huh?"

"Haiz. Haiz. Supporting her, eh?" She looked at me and grinned loftily.
