Chapter 2 - here you go with a generous tip...

A pen a watch and a metal cube?

What a strange set of items to find in the toilet of a restaurant not caring much I pocket the items and throw the box in the ground

Let's see what is on this one

Mm a pen a wach and a metallic cube

Next I throw away the box and pocket the items

Agh the same god Damm thinks I sight throwing a nother one at the ground

Taking a few cubs from my pockets I play with them in my hand mmm mmm ~

Humming nonsense

What the hell are you Humming about

Ahh

I look at the door that just opened with a bang

And my hand holding the cubs that I was playing the edges are in my flesh

Ahh

Why are you crying the angry man now worried looks away from my face and looks at my hand

Is is covered in blood

Why is hand in blood did you cut it were for haw long forgetting why he was he here he aproches the man with a bloody hand in the toilet

If looked at a weird angle it would look like the worried man hit the crying one a little too much and is now apologizing

I'm fine he lied

No you are not he rebuked

Yes I am he continued to spout nonsense in a hurry

Stay there let me take a emergency medical kit from the staff

After leaving the crying man alone he goes to the counter explains

Really wait a sec hurrying at the back he comes with a white box with a red plus on the sides of the container

Let's go the brother that was waiting for his brother that was taking to long in the bathroom

that was angry that he was taking way way to long to do his business

and barged in forcibly

Said with worry in his voice and eyes

What is this the cashier said with a angry tone a strange type of disappointment in his voice

What the worried brother now confused said

Befor their eys the man that should have a bloody hand is looking at his hand in silence

And his eyes are not redend or are there any signs of tears he was just staying there looking stupid

'Huh dear customer ' the cashier turnd to face the visible confusiod man at his side

'There is no one that needs medical help here what will you say about this give me a good reason'

The confused brother slightly shifted his focus and notice a angry cashier looking at him demanding an explanation

The man slightly looks at him for a few seconds thinking befor saying with a pang of regret

Sorry to inconvenience and worry you over nothing

Here is a tip for your great service

Slips some money into his pocket

Ahh mm caught of guard by his swift apology he accepteds the bribe

' this is good enough of a reason ' he nods mentally

'Dont want him to do anything rash like that son of ' anger flash before his eyes, just as quickly it came it left 'but he might have not done anything' he thought

'But it is better to be safe'

Now

What the hell have you been doing in the bathroom for the past 3 hours he shouts

Snapping out his daze he shouts back

What what are you saying 3 hours at most

30 minutes you really have no sense of time

The cashier not fealing that he will get involved slips away from bathroom

What are you saying I should say. you have no sense of time thinking 3 hours is 30 minutes go outside and see for yourself how long 30 your 30 minutes are

Ok I will Let's go

Ok let's go

Walking outside he sees that the sky is dark

His brother turns his head at him

He also turns his head at his brother

'...'

'....'

'...'

Say something finally one of the brothers breaks the silence between then

Sorry he apologized

What he put his hand to his ear I can't hear you

I said I'm sorry Let's go we might miss the carnival

The other brother shakes his head and says Let's go home

Why didn't you want to see the carnival

I did but at this time we can't make it we can whach it at home on the TV plus this is only day one there is plenty of time to go in person

Huh Fine

Wiel walking the streets in the reverse direction people are walking tworders in the darkness of night silent a question was asked

How did your hand have no scars or inquiries of the sort

For the cubs blood and tears he could understand he could have thrown the cubs in the trash and washed his hand of blood and splash his face with water but what about cut flesh how could he have done that

I don't know he answers honestly slightly rasing his hand and looking at his palm that pristine clean

Stoping in his tracks he looks at his brother crosses his arms in front of his chest and says : you don't know

Putting his hand down and stopping a few feet away he slowly turns and says I Don't wiel looking at his eyes

Also not moving his gaze from his says a single word : explain

Looking at him for a few more seconds he breaks his gaze from his surveying the surroundings for a few more seconds they are plenty with people

And says to the patiencet brother that is looking at his actions in silence

At home finally after looking around he says

The brother looks at his brother for a few seconds In the eyes lowers his arms and says Ok

Wiel walking side by side in silence thinking about their own stuff

One unknown wiel the other how to explain.
