~~~That year when Eric had fight with the neighbourhood bully while Felix was watching him from a distance. Eric was orphan. He lived with his uncle and aunt while they work. Eric would roam around the nearby area to checkout the environment they were living in. Eric saw a fragile boy. He had silvery hair with shining purple eyes. None other than Felix.
Eric wanted to be friends with him but was constantly reminded of his situation and background when he would look at himself. He would keep a close look at Felix whenever he was on the ground. Eric didn't like the way Jacob would keep Felix all to himself but he could do nothing as he wasn't aware of Felix's heart.
Eric would hide under the slides where Felix and Jacob would play and sometimes listen to there conversation. Eric felt happy whenever he would listen to Felix. At first glance he thought Felix was a girl who was being bullied by that flabby neighbourhood bully which made him to take fight with him. After learning Felix was just avoiding him and afraid of the bully Eric would sometimes hide and look at Felix.
FELIX - Why are you here? Didn't you had a fight yesterday?? If he knows he won't spare you.
ERIC - I know I know.i just came to play.
FELIX- But he is a bully . He may harm you.
ERIC- I am not afraid.
~~~Little did Eric know about the street hooligans whom the bully had paid to teach a lesson to Eric. This hooligans were not experienced neither knew how to fight they were just more in number compared to Eric.Eric was beaten untill he bleed and have bruise all over him. Seeing this Felix passed out of fear. Eric ran towards the nearest stone he could find. Tied it inside his torn-out clothes and rotated it untill no one dared to come near him or Felix. Eric was a hooligan himself who would take fight when he was bored. He would challenge the boys twice his size and ended up beating them. Not because he was pumped up but because he had his ways. Eric was cleaver.
He knew basic of things which will earn him a bread. Before living with his uncle and aunt Eric tried doing odd jobs. Even after living with them he would collect trash for his survival. Eric's uncle loved him like his son but his aunt would fight daily to his uncle to send Eric off somewhere. ~~~
ERIC - Hey!! Are you okay??
Felix was uncouncious. Eric brought water and sprayed on Felix's face. As Felix opened his eyes he saw Eric. Felix turn his head to look for those boys. No was around. They all ran for the fear of being hit by the stone which Eric rotated around like a beast. Felix hugged Eric and cried with a sense of relief as both of them were safe. Until someone informed about the situation to Felix's parents. Afraid of Felix being hurt his mother came running down. Felix gestured Eric to run away as he knew the situation can get worse. While running Eric managed to ask the name of this beautiful yet boy's name. It's Felix he shouted and what's yours?? Before Eric could tell he was caught by his aunt who came to work at the house of a resident of the society.~~~
AUNT - Only this was left to be seen.You have no work and stick to us like a leech. Sucking money out of my husband.
ERIC - Aunt isn't not what you think. I came here to collect the trash and befor...
(He was interrupted by his aunt who continued to scold him.)
~~~For couple of days there was a constant fight occuring at house. Eric decided to leave and live on his own. Uncle tried convincing Eric but it was fruitless attempt as Eric was stubborn like his father. Uncle left the hope of getting him back at the home and blessed him, gave a small packet of money which will help him to survive for few months. He promised to give money to Eric in secret while he needs to maintain the secrecy from his aunt. Eric laughed and took the packet while he was leaving. He knew it was the last time he was taking this money from his uncle not for himself but for something he planned for future. ~~~~~
<<<<<>>>>
Felix waited evey day for that boy and ask his name but he didn't know the boy was never coming back to park. Jacob didn't knew about this incident as he moved his house before they again meet at the academy which were next to each other. Felix would sit everyday wondering What happened to that kid after the fight? Why has he stopped coming. No one knew the answer and as for Eric he was long gone.
FELIX-Jacob did you see that classmate of mine?He was just here with that guy. Did you see them??
JACOB-I saw that classmate of yours who talks a lot but he was alone.
FELIX- Nooo!!! He wasn't. He knew that boy from the park. He knew him. I just saw him in the restroom.
~~~Jacob could see the restlessness on Felix's face . They both tried to check every hook n corner they could but just like that Eric was again disappeared to the thin air from which he appeared.
LUCAS-You know him don't you?
ERIC - None of your business.
LUCAS-He is a nice guy. It's just he's little popular than me.
ERIC - (;;;・_・)
LUCAS-Do you want his number?
ERIC - You have his number?
LUCAS-No but I can get for you.
ERIC - Nope not required. Before you get his number the world will know you require his number.
~~~Lucas could sense the tense in the environment as he always saw Eric watching at someone whenever he visited to him at acemdy but he would change his view point before Lucas could figure it out. Eric had sharp sense of situation. Everyone looked upto Lucas as he was handsome and smart. He scored perfect scores the only fault he had was being chatterbox. So mostly people could predict his next move as would usually blabber about it.
Lucas went behind Eric out of curiosity as Eric was someone who consider the public restroom dirty. But for some reason he went to the public restroom for the first time. Upon entering Lucas saw Eric staring with the same gaze at the mirror with which he would look for somebody when he would visit him at academy. It was Felix. Felix who was also very popular among the academy for his talent, knowledge and the beautiful eyes who would make anyone fall for him. Lucas didn't liked him. Lucas don't like people who are popular other then him~~~
LEO- It's time.
ERIC - Right. it's time.
LUCAS-so is this it?? Where it ends?(Lucas is asking Eric is this where Eric wants to put a hold on his love forever)
ERIC - i guess so.
ERIC, LUCAS and LEO left the country. Lucas contradicting to the rumour wasn't rich. He was the younger one of Leo. Leo who worked for Eric. And Eric who was building his own empire. Lucas left the acemdy to help his brother and Eric in the company. Company which was runned down by the future mafia. The king of devil's Eric was there leader.
