My Star From Another Star

2 - Men like me?

"What is this place?", she entered inside my small house which is not so far from the border.

"My house", I switched on the lights.

Her eyes widened at the view in front of her. "You are rich but your house looks below average."

"You!! What do you mean below average? Huh?", I glared at her deadly. "Also this isn't my real house. I need to stay here for the time being I am on my duty."

"What duty do you do?", she asked cluelessly.

"Can't you see my army uniform? Unbelievable! I am a Lieutenant General", I said and sat on the chair.

The chair broke into pieces once I sat on it comfortably. Gosh! This is so embarrassing.

She left a small laugh and looked away. I  cursed under my breath.

"What do you do?", she asked once she stopped laughing.

"I protect people!", I answered.

She seemed to be speechless for a second. After a moment she said,"Will you protect me too?"

"Huh? Uh- Ofcourse it's my responsibility to protect my citizens", I smiled awkwardly.

She came and hugged me,"Thankyou!" My heart started racing as she caught me off guard. I smiled and then she said something I can't even forget till my last breath.

"Thankyou so much big brother",she hugged me tighter and my heart which was racing out of love shattered into pieces.

She moved away from the hug. "Thank-you brother!", she said again.

"Can you... can you..", I said but couldn't complete it.

Can you just stop calling me brother?

"Why can't I call you brother?",she seemed to be confused.

No way. Did she read my mind again?

"Ah! Sorry. I should have asked your permission first."

"Can you really listen my thoughts?", I was startled.

"Hmm", she nodded.

Woah! Unbelievable!

"Bro.."

"Don't call me that", I cut her off instantly.

"So what should I call you mister?", she asked.

"Mister is fine. But don't call me brother for God's sake", I rubbed my forehead.

"Who is God?", she asked.

"Huh?" Is she mentally disable?

"What is mentally disable?"

Jesus christ! She would be the reason of my death. Gosh!

"What's death? Who is Jesus christ?"

I sighed heavily,"Stop talking! Aren't you hungry?"

She didn't reply.

"I am asking are you hungry?"

No reply.

"Why aren't you answering me?"

She walked to a table and wrote something on the notepad. She brought the paper to me. The paper read- You told me to stop talking earlier.

"Woah! You know how to write but don't know who is God!", I scoffed.

"You snatched away your hand when I held it earlier at that weird place so I  couldn't take all the information properly", she said flipping her hair.
