Mew and his brother, Manny got in the car and left. Manny had held himself from lashing out because of the crowd and he saw a security guard approaching the crowd.

However he still felt unsatisfied. He hadn't reciprocated his own punch when Mew stopped him. He looked at Mew and said to the driver,

"Pull over,"

"But," Uncle wanted to argue,

"Pull over right now before I lose it."  He stayed with a dangerous voice.

Uncle pulled over and Manny dragged Mew out by his collar. Mew had to quickly unbuckle his seatbelt or he was going to get bruised. Mew covered his head as soon as he was thrown on the ground. Endless kicks started raining on his body and it was a while later that uncle came to his rescue.

Manny resisted Uncle's plea to stop and he fought the man's hands preventing him from relieving his anger.

It was when he calmed down that uncle let him go and Mew thought it was safe to get up now. He was groaning and shaking with fear and pain. He didn't expect it when Manny's shoe kicked his head and all he could hear was a sharp ringing in his ears. He tried to get up but he fell over and groaned.

Uncle had to carry him and buckle him up because he was out of it.

The rest of the ride was a blur and when they got home, Uncle had to help Mew go inside the house and as soon as they got in, they heard a clap and they both looked up to see owner of the house fuming with anger standing in front  shocked Manny now holding his cheek.

Uncle placed Mew on the couch and left the room. Mew looked up and saw his mother coming down the stairs looking elegant but her face frowning.

"Expelled!? You cause trouble and I clean after your mess and give you a second chance but what? Expelled?" He asked holding his waist face full of disbelief.

Mew sat listening to his father scolding his brother. He didn't know that Manny had caused trouble. He only doing out about the rape case today but wait....

Mew analyzed what his father had said again and realized what was happening.

His father knew what had happened. He knew Manny had sexually assaulted a girl. Then is that why they had to rush his leaving and asked him to be quiet about it?

Then all this while Gulf was looking for his brother?

He remembered sitting with his mother in his room a year ago, how she ignored his busted lip and instead asked him not to say anything about his brother leaving. Mew felt so wronged and it was unfair that's why he couldn't let the officer know his brother was the one bullying him because it would only show that his brother left recently.

But now he was learning it was because he had raped Faffy that he had to leave and it was difficult to digest that fact that his family had played dirty.

The shock of his life didn't end there.

"Why is he looking like that?" The father barked pointing at Mew and he looked away suddenly surprised by how he was drawn in the conversation.

Another clap resounded in the house and Mew was startled.

"You were expelled because of bullying and you come back and do this to your brother? What did we agree on when you left?"

Mew felt like he was being punished sitting there and hearing the shocking confessions .

"I have never been disappointed as I am now Manny.  Go to your room right now I don't even want to see you."

All Mew could think of was they knew he was getting bullied by Manny and they knew it was Manny but they had kept quiet and turned a blind eye to his suffering.

If they didn't want me, why did they adopt me then? Was the question he always asked himself. They made it so obvious that he was not part of the family and it hurt to know.

After Manny had gone upstairs, Mew expected them to say anything or at least apologies and maybe explain why they did that but all they did was look at him and sigh and left for God knows where

Mew struggled to go on the flight of stairs and as soon as he opened his bedroom door, he saw Manny coming to him and he didn't want to risk it. He quickly ran in his room and locked the door. Manny banged on his door demanding him to open it. Mew knew Manny wanted to relive his anger on him and he was not going to give him that chance.

He felt like he had been pushed to the edge with all that was happening that's why he reached for his phone got in his blankets.

He called Gulf but Gulf wouldn't pick up.

He kept on calling and his calls were canceled.

He called some more and Gulf's phone was turned off.

He laid in his bed feeling so conflicted and so lonely.

It was Gulf's scent in his sheets that kept him sane, otherwise he would've jumped out of the window already.
