I am going to die of suffocation.
"Mom, I am not going to run away now."
She lifted up her teary eyes and brought me in.
"Who is he?"
I pointed to the little twerp ruining the dining table.
"Owe!" He welped in pain as the aunt came in after us and caught him by ear
"How rude Kishen! Wait for your brother-in-law."
Brother-in-law, who me?
Wait so, he is my Lia's brother.
Then that lady should be my...
I looked at the woman cleaning the face of the child while apologising to my mother...
Mother-in-law...
"There is no need for that. He is just a child and I was the one who allowed him."
My mother laughed and shrugged it off.
"Sister, you shouldn't spoil him that much."
She pouted and left the child alone to rub on his ears.
We had the breakfast since I came quite early in the morning and then I got ready to set out and explore some of the town.
"Wait! I am coming with you."
Rishta screamed and came running after me.
"Why?"
"Nothing but... that lady has been staring daggers at me ever since we came here."
Oh, nothing special.
It is quite normal situation if you ask me.
It is common for people to cheat on each other while in a relationship and girls like her are said to be housewreaker.
Those type of girls who are stuck to other's men by hips.
But I was the one who invited her and she may reveal her dark past to someone if kept with others for long.
"Follow me but hide when I am talking to someone."
Okay, I know that is unreasonable but it would work.
So,
"Who is this certain someone?"
"You don't need to know."
"Oh, is this your sweetheart that you always boast about being more beautiful than me?"
"Taller than you."
"Fuk you."
Ah, that is a crepe shop.
One for me, one for her.
"Take this and sit here."
I made her sit down on the park bench, two blocks from the home and I street away from the place I am going to.
I stood in front of the door with a crepe in one hand and knocked with the other,
"Would you like a half-eaten crepe? I am sure it is tastier."
A beauty opened the door, wearing a long one piece attire with careful but home-like embroideries done on it. She had tiny facial features and spirally ruby-like eyes, her tiny ears were adorned with silver earrings shaped like ribbons candies, and her forehead was covered with bangs: with long hairs that could be reaching up to her knees. Although, we both like to keep our hairs uncombed and natural, she somehow still locks more beautiful with her pinkish-red hairs.
"Wow, wait is that you, Illyum?"
"Yep, it's me, my dear Lia."
Smack!
A slap... why?
"Don't cry now, you deserved that."
She said while wiping her tears.
"But, you are the one who is crying?"
"I know, you scumbag, you can never be the one to cry."
And the crying intensifies.
I want to end this drama already.
I hugged her lightly and said,
"There, there, now don't cry."
Smack!
Why?
"Come again tomorrow."
Slam!
The closed the door.
What the heck just occurred.
I obeyed and decided to come tomorrow but before that...
I need to do something.
maybe, visit the city guard guy that was hitting on Natalia.
