I was silent because of what he said. I admit that I joked that he was jealous of Louis, but I didn't expect that he was really jealous. I sighed and looked away, I played my fingers because of nervousness.
Did I go to far to push him saying all of these? I can sense that he is really mad at me right now. I only want to know the reason why he's always mad when he saw Louis and I together, but I never imagine this one.
“W-Why are you jealous with Louis?” I asked and bit my lip before looking at the window.
I heard his loud sigh, “You to seem so close already. You are not like that to me before we became acquaintances until we became friends,” he answered.
“Are you afraid he will surpass our friendship?” I asked weakly, he gaze at me before he shook his head.
“I'm not scared, Scar… but I'm scared to lose you. You're so precious and important to me more than any rubies and gems in this world, I don't want to hurt you or lose you.” I just nodded in response because of what he said.
“because you see me as your younger—” he cut out what I supposed to say.
“It's not because I'll see you as my younger sister, you are precious and important to me before we became friends,” he said, which silenced me even more.
My chest pounded because of what he said. I don't know why there is a part of me that's so happy because I'm important to him, not because he treats me as his younger sister. But one thing is for sure, I'll not going to like it.
“You're so fragile, Scar, if I could just wrap you in bubble wrap, so you don't get broken, I would do it,” he said and honked at the big gate.
We were already here at their house, I didn't even realize we had arrived. I feel so tired from the trip, even though I didn't do anything but sit and fight with Ace.
“Hi, aunt,” I greeted as I got out of the car. She smiled and kissed me.
“Hi, uncle,” I also greeted Ace's father kindly. He smiled at me and led me to their mansion. Tito and Tita are like my real parents. They treated me so well, like their own daughter.
Sometimes, I envy their family for being complete and happy unlike mine, however, I'm grateful that they seem to include me in their family.
I have my own room here and things that they buy for me. They know all my struggles and what happened to my family. When daddy always want to kick me out. I go here until he summons me back to the mansion.
“I know you are tired from the flight, go to your room and I will send your luggage there,” uncle said.
“Thank you,” I answered and walked upstairs.
Aunt is still outside, taking Ace to see what the storm has ruined here in the mansion. It's their big mansion and a whole garden, it's five hectares if measured or maybe even more.
There are many flowers here and behind the mansion there are man-made falls and plants of tulips flower and different flowers.
I looked around my room as soon as I entered. Clean and nothing changed. I smiled and got some of my clothes here before cleaning my body in the bathroom.
When I came out of the bathroom, I saw their young maid in the house with my stuff. I smiled as I approached her, “Hi sissy, how are you?” I asked and smiled at her.
Rina is one of the maid here at Ace's parents mansion. She has only been here for a year and what I can say is that she is a very kind child. She's one year younger than me, she worked here to sustain her studies and support her family.
Her eyes widened as she saw me, “It's you, older sister!” she exclaimed, making me frown.
“Stop calling me that, call me in my name,” I promised and pulled him to sit on my bed.
“Scarlet, who is the one that Ace like, they are talking about a girl outside for a while now?” she asked in confusion, “does brother Ace have a girlfriend?” she added.
My eyes furrowed because of what she said, “Why, what are they talking about?” I asked out of curiosity.
She bit her lips while looking at me, “Well Scar, I heard brother Ace said that he likes someone who is just a few years younger than him, and it is very impossible to like him back.”
My chest pounded because of what she said. Maybe he's not talking about me, right?
“Are you alright?” she asked, bringing me back to reality.
“I'm fine, what else did he say?” I asked nervously.
She held her chin as if remembering what else Ace had said earlier, “She's so fragile, and he doesn't want that girl to be hurt, but the thing is he doesn't know how to protect her,” she said, making my heart beat faster.
sh*t!
“What else?” I asked nervously.
“There is no more because someone called him in the phone and then right after he ordered me to bring your things here,” she said.
I bit my lip because of frustration. Damn! does he really have feelings for me? How is our friendship? It might ruin everything!
He told me he sees me as his younger sister, but why did everything he said about the girl he loved match with me?
“Are you okay?” asked Rina. I nodded in response and smiled at her awkwardly. “Why do you like Ace?” she asked.
I glare at her, "No way! I don't like him and one more thing, he's like a brother to me." I take a deep breathe and walk towards the balcony of my room.
I hate myself for having this happy feeling inside of me. I should never experience this. Damn you Ace for the fourth time you ruin my system again! I should never have feeling for him, I don't want to ruin pur friendship because of this.
I hate love, and I'll never fall in love. I promised.
