Chapter 6

It's midnight but I still can't sleep, I still can't forget what Saint said to Audrey earlier. I'm in my pajamas and ready to go to sleep but drowsiness doesn't really bother me. So I went down to the kitchen to drink milk, I thought I would catch up with Ate Mary again but I was shocked when I saw the person I didn't want to see now. Saint.
I saw him look up at me and I immediately backed away. He can't go near me, I won't allow him to come near me. I'm not important to him, am I? So maybe I can distance myself a little from him.
I turned around and was about to take a step when I suddenly felt an arm curl around me from behind me. Saint is hugging me from the back! And it's making my heart beat wild.
"Let me explain, I know you heard what I said before. I'm sorry, for hurting you again." Immediately my hair stood up all over my body when I heard Saint's calm voice again.
I didn't answer and tried to remove my hug, but Saint was just strong and he wasn't even removed from his place.
"I'm sorry, Klea. Don't make me mad at me, please?" I just held his hand on my waist and sighed.
"How are you Audrey?" I will ask. He broke free from my embrace and I was surprised when he suddenly pulled me to sit on one of the chairs on the kitchen counter.
He is holding my wrist while looking directly at my eyes. "Audrey is just a job, okay? I needed to fling with her because she's the daughter of one of the mafia bosses who wants to take you. And I'm planning to make her get attached to me before proceeding to the killing plan her father and then her. "
I was surprised by what Saint said, it's another way to protect me? And what does Audrey"s Father need from me?
"What else do they need from me?" I asked him, he sighed. And his face went blank again.
"They want you to be the heiress, and you know your Daddy is rich and he has a big share in the underworld. They want you to be the heiress and then kill you afterwards to get your Daddy's inheritance from you. You know how underworld works, Klea. " Right. That's why Dad's inheritance came to me because everyone thought I killed him.
And maybe if Mommy only knew that whoever kills one of the mafia bosses would have all its riches, then maybe she wouldn"t have left me yet.
I just nodded at Saint. "Are you still mad at me?" He asked and I immediately shook my head.
"I'm sorry, Klea. I'm just protecting you." He said and I was surprised when he suddenly approached me and hugged me once again.
And then here's my heart beat going wild again, oh my god. Why do I feel this way? I shouldn't feel this way towards Saint, he's just my brother.
"Am I a burden to you Saint?" I asked him while he still hugged me.
"No." He responded.
"Am I not important in your life?" I asked.
"No, you mean the world to me Klea." He answered.
"Don't I have a role in your life?" I asked again.
"No, you are a big part of our life especially mine." He answered again. I just smiled at Saint's answer.
He let go of my hug and looked straight into my eyes. "And now, I'm going to ask you again. Answer it properly."
I nodded. "Do you like Psalm?"
Suddenly my throat went dry because of Saint's question. I blinked and I couldn't believe what he said.
"Well, your reactions says it well .." he paused. "But I have something that might change your mind on liking him."
"What is it?" I'm confused question. I was nervous, he might kill Psalm. Well maybe not.
"This." And in a swift move, I suddenly felt a strange feeling in my heart as Saint applied his lip to mine.
He touched the back of my head to emphasize the kiss even more. I am hypnotized by his kiss, so I just close my eyes and hold him tightly on the shoulder.
He broke the kiss and looked at me. He planted one more quick kiss on me and smiled. HE SMILED AT ME. RIGHT INFRONT OF ME. Saint smiled, which he never did.
"Goodnight." He said and walked away.
My heart. Oh no. Why are you switching your feelings so quick?
When Monday came, I couldn"t get my mind off what Saint had done. He kissed me! That was my first! Besides, I don't understand, my heart beat is so loud that time. I don't understand, I thought I like Psalm? But ... why is my heart beating so fast when Saint did that?
I just closed my eyes tightly, I didn't have the strength to go to school anymore. Besides, I'm embarrassed to face Saint! I looked at the door, I'm sure it will knock later so maybe I'll go to school first?
But I don't have a car! We also don't have a driver because Saint doesn't want to because there are only a few of us at home. Oh, so I'll just eat first and get in his car right away and then I'll sleep the whole trip to school. Right. Nice plan, Sat.
As soon as I opened the door, my eyes widened so I immediately closed it again.
"Oh, c'mon Klea don't be rude to me. Open the door." There was a smile on Saint's lips as he said those words. I know this would happen, I know Saint will annoy me.
"No! Saint, I don't want to see your face!" I shouted, I heard her laugh from outside so my eyes immediately widened. He just laughed ?! He is getting weirder!
I immediately opened the door and looked at him. "Laugh again, I want to see you laugh." I immediately said.
"Nope, baby. You can't force a laugh." He smiled and said, b-baby ?! Oh my god, he is crazy!
"Don't call me like that!" I said angrily to him, he raised an eyebrow at what I said.
"Why baby? Is your heart getting weird?" Yes, Saint. Yes! You're making my heart weire and please stop!
"And why would that happen?" I asked him while he was still smiling, he laughed again. Which made me stunned. The handsome he laughed, the handsome he smiled too. All that handsome with him.
"Because, let's just say you're about to like me?" She said smiling. I rolled my eyes at him.
"What are you? Lucky? You just kissed me I want you right away? In your dreams, Saint." He stopped slightly, I thought he was hurt by what I said but I'm wrong. I saw her wide smile.
"Say 'po' again." He said.
"Why?" I asked with confusion.
"Just say it. Say the last statement you've said awhile ago." Because I can't do anything because I see Saint smiling in front of me which is really weird because he usually has a blank face all the time.
"In your dreams, Saint." I said while mimicking my last tone while saying that.
"Ah, that feels weird." He said as he rubbed his forehead, and went down to the kitchen first. My forehead furrowed because of Saint's behavior, he is getting weirder that I thought.
When I got down to the table, Saint was in his usual place. In the middle while Ate Mary is on the left side, and I am on the right side. I looked at Sister Mary and smiled.
"Goodmorning, baby Sat." I stopped slightly because of what Sister Mary said, oh god. I don't want to hear any baby words.
I looked at Saint who secretly laughed at my reaction, I immediately stared at him and rushed to sit in my seat and started eating.
"Baby Sab? How's your date with, Psalm?" Sister Mary asked with a smile, before I could answer I was surprised when Saint suddenly blinked.
The housemates were immediately alerted and immediately gave water to Saint. He immediately drank it and took a deep breath, and now I just noticed the discoloration of his eyepatch. It's now, black.
"Hey, Saint? Are you alright?" Ate Mary asked him, and he just nodded. He looked at me and I raised an eyebrow at him.
I heard him tsked and suddenly stood up and left the mansion. Ate Mary looked at me "What happened there?" He asked.
I just shrugged at Ate Mary. I hastened the meal because Saint might leave me, that man doesn't have a personal driver yet.
I was in a hurry to get out of the house but was surprised when suddenly someone pulled me and took me to the back of his car. I looked at Saint who was confused, what else did this man eat?
"Klea?"
"What?" I sighed at him.
"Don't come near Psalm now, I'll be watching you." He whispered.
"And why is that?" I asked her while still raising one eyebrow. He looked at me straight in my eyes.
"Just follow." He said sternly.
"I do not want." I disagreed with his decision. I really don't like it, Psalm is my only friend that I'm really close to at school and then he still doesn't want me to come with him? Tss.
"Just follow what I said, okay?" He said calmly while still looking into my eyes.
"I really don't want to, he's my friend. He's the only one I can talk to in the whole school because we're close. Eh, I'm sure you have a lot of friends there ㅡ"
"I don't have friends, there." He said. My eyes narrowed as I looked at him.
"Edi don't touch me with your kalonely-han, do it alone. I don't want to join!" I said frowning. Saint laughed because of what I said and my eyes widened, he laughed infront of me, again!
"C'mon, baby I'll be really jealous if you approach Psalm." He frowned and said, I rolled my eyes at Saint. Ugh! Whatever!
"I don't know about you!" I shouted and immediately got into his car. I noticed that the car he was using was his Porsche, what else was in this man's head?
Did I think lay down? Ganun? But why is he using a Porsche? Where is the Chevrolet? I looked at him when he also got in his car and he looked at me.
He leaned closer to me and immediately my eyes widened. No! Not again. Before he could kiss me I immediately covered my lips with my palms.
He laughed again. "Don't be assuming, Klea."
He said and pulled the seat belt behind me and put the seat belt on me. I felt the heat on both my cheeks because of the embarrassment.
But before Saint returned to his seat he gave me a kiss on the cheek and winked at me.
What the actual fuck, Saint Angelous.
All day at school I was like a zombie, I didn't even want to go home because I would see Saint's face again. I like his behavior better then, than now. I'm annoyed, he still has a smile, he knows, he didn't do that before, did he? What is happening to that man?
At lunch I ate with Odette and as usual they teased me and Psalm again. Psalm is a very nice guy, I just don't know about Saint and what he ate and he acted like that. I hate Saint, I don't like the moves he shows me.
"Danica? Just chill. It's like you're assassinating the pork belly on your plate." I heard Cassidy say so I immediately looked up at them.
Earlier they stopped annoying me with Psalm. I took a deep breath and looked at my plate. The pork belly on my plate can no longer be seen. My god, just because I thought of Saint that happened!
"Earlier we noticed that you didn't seem to be in the mood? Did something happen?" Eren asked me.
I smiled. "Don't worry about me, something just happened at home that I didn't like."
"Share, we're ready to listen. You're our friend." Rence said smiling, while the others nodded, while Pierce is just silent. As usual.
"Ah, it's just family problems and I can't share it with you, it's too personal." I lied. Ugh. How many times do I have to lie to them, just so they don"t know the true state of my life?
"Aww, all right. That's fine too, you always pray." Stan said and winked. I smiled at him and nodded.
"You know I still can't really believe that you're so rich ..." Odette said smiling, I just smiled at her and shook my head. It's not my house.
"Me too, I thought when he said that he was home schooled he was really rich but when I saw how big their mansion was, I was amazed that you are really very rich." Rence said. I just smiled at them in response, I can't say it's not us because it's Saint.
"Besides, I have an is-ahare ..." I turned to Stan. Odette also looked at Stan.
"Do you remember what I asked you where you are?" He said, I nodded at him. He was urinating and he asked me where the cr in the mansion was and I told him the direction.
"Yes why?" I asked.
"I'm not sure if I saw it correctly, but while I was walking in the hall I saw a picture frame that was too big. It looked like a family picture ..." Oh no. Saint's family picture with me! Oh my god, I should have just said that in the kitchen!
"Because I saw Rozen, he was with his parents. Then there's him, is he your brother?" Stan asked which immediately alerted everyone. Even Pierce looked at me and waited for my answer.
"No. If he's my brother, we should have the same surname, right?" I laughed saying. Right, act natural Sat. They can"t know who you are, and who Saint is.
"That's right, if he's not your brother, why are you in that family picture? Is he the one you're referring to as your strict brother?" Yes he is the one I am referring to strictly but he is not my older brother!
"No. The truth is that Rozen and I are childhood friends, we are very close and they treat me like family ..." I tried to explain. They all sighed and forced a smile on me
"Why do you live in their house? Where are your real parents?" Cassidy asked, I was immediately nervous about their questions. Will I tell them the truth? Who I really am? But. Saint would be super mad at me.
"Ah, because my real parents have died and because I'm close to them, Rozen's parents adopted me, they took care of me but they didn't adopt me but they also seem to be my second parents."
It was as if a big thorn had been pulled out of my chest when I saw that I seemed to convince them of what I had said. Even though the atmosphere of our table was back to normal, they came back to laughing so I just smiled.
After I ate I went straight to the school garden I rested deeply. I know they will know the truth too, even if not now but I know the time will come when they will know the truth.
"Thinking something?" I immediately turned to the speaker and saw Psalm smiling at me.
Psalm ... right. "Should I still call you Sab? Or Danica?" Psalm asked me, I smiled at him.
"Sab, call me Sab." Psalm nodded and sat next to me with enough distance between us so that our skin would not meet.
"Is there something wrong? I just saw you go to the garden." Psalm said with a smile, I just smiled at him and shook slightly.
"Nope. I just want to come here to be able to think things through." He nodded at me and I was surprised when he took something from behind him and handed it to me.
My eyes widened and I looked at him in disbelief. The pink pig at the carnival! Did he really take that? I immediately took it in his hand and immediately hugged it.
He smiled. "You'd think I got that. It's just too hard." He laughs saying while holding his neck, he's really cute when he's shy.
"Thank you, Psalm." I thanked him and smiled.
"Anything for you, Sabrina." I smiled even more when I heard my name come out of his lips.
I was about to speak when I hit someone who was already staring at my companion. Immediately my eyes widened, and gulped. Why is he here?
I noticed that Psalm also looked there but I immediately turned the direction of his head. "Don't. Don't look."
He smiled and nodded gently at me. I relaxed with his approval, I looked again in Saint's direction and saw him shake violently as he walked away.
What is Saint doing here?
