"What happened to you Phi? " A worried Chay looked at me with horror depicted on his face, Porsche came from inside after hearing Porschay's concerns.

"Nothing, just got drenched in rain and screwed by life. "

" It doesn't seem like that..... Have you fought with someone? "

"It's nothing, who can dare to? I would have punched the shit out of him. " I faked a laugh and the two naive brothers accepted it, as I thought.

I was in a bad mood and wanted some alone time, so I just excused myself and went to sleep early, but my mind was stuck in what happened a few hours ago, that bastard, I so wanna break his jaw, his filthy hands seemed to make me dirty, I cleaned and scrubed my body again, fuck! That bastard left hickeys all over. I tried hard but in vain, after an hour I tried to sleep but my mind was still stuck there, how the hell am I gonna find a place?
Sleep took over me and I slept without realising, but I woke up mid sleep, I had a nightmare of him trying to assault me. I took the jacket of my mother, which she left for me when she died when I was an 8 year old. It has always been a comfort to me, as if she was there to caress my head and encourage me, I slept peacefully again.
The next few days college went by and I was still in search of a house, I had a lot of discussion with Porsche who wants me to stay with them but he ended up agreeing to me, and also started looking for a place. It simply means Kinn will be searching it for him, I am not envious though.
It was Friday and the weekend was on the way, I came from my part time job and just had a glass of water,  when Porsche almost jumped in front of me, I spit the water over him, he stood there, freezed, and went back. It took him 5 minutes to come back the same way he did.
" PETE"
"What? "
"I have found a house for you!! "
"Oh congrats..... Wait what-"
"Yup, Kinn's Cousin is living in a duplex and he agreed for the upper floor and at your budget, it's all your type, I had myself certified it and you will love it. "

"It's true or you are forcing Kinn? "

" He does it out of love, they say their is no difference in love and war. "

"Well that's true for you, but how you got a house in three days when I had been searching the whole two months? "

" I just said to Kinn that I am not allowing him to even think about my ass until you have a place for yourself, that too the one you like. "

" I don't know I should be thankful to you or sorry for Kinn. "

" Well it's perfect and we can shift on Sunday, along with it, we will give you a farewell party tomorrow too. "

" On This Sunday, that's quite early. "

" His cousin is a  sociopath and he barely sees anyone and even talk to anyone, so he asked you to move in when he is out of town, he won't be home too often anyways. "

" That's fine by me, it's not like he is a criminal or whatever that I should be scared of. "

" Yup, but Kinn says he is a  complex guy, though he doesn't talk about him often. But why are you making this puppy face? "
" I love you Porsche! You are indeed my best friend except when you are drunk... "

I jumped at him, hugging him tightly, sometimes the prayers are heard and finally mine too, it was as of a weight was lifted off my chest.
The house was perfect and even more than I wanted, his cousin wasn't there so I didn't got a chance to thank him in person.
We all drank and had a feast at Porsche's place after shifting my stuff, Porsche got really drunk and was blabbering.

"Oh my lovely child Pete, you, you, know how much I care for you? I love you just like Chay. Don't leave me.... I will be better.... " He was crying and hugging the empty bottles.

" I am here only, you will see me everyday. "

"Take care of your house and be a good wife... Just like I had taught you... "

"He isn't getting married Porsche, now come on let's go home. " Kinn took the bottles back and got him a glass of water.

" NO, I am not leaving him alone, I will sleep next to you today... " He clinged to me and helpless Kinn had to leave him there.

I moved in on Sunday evening and it was all going good, it felt so awesome coming to your own place after a tiresome day. I haven't met the Cousin of Kinn, and I am being curious as I had heard a lot about him.
His name is Vegas, I don't remember where have I heard this name but it sounded familiar, he is a Senior in the Software Engineering major, same age as Kinn and is the son of his father's brother, his parents lives in USA and he is a single child. But he is a sociopath as said by Kinn, meaning someone who doesn't have feelings or emotions and basic human tendecy to connect. But he is the topper of the whole class in three consecutive years.
Three weeks passed and I was well settled, our half semester exams were over and I was free for a while now. I was standing on the balcony, seeping down my flavoured milk, when a car stopped in front, the garage opened and it was parked. Vegas was here. A guy with a cap over his face, he was almost similar to Kinn's build, but his face was covered in mask and cap. He entered the house before I could say anything.
I don't know what to do? Should I go and say hello? Or just stay there? I decided for the medium choice. I will go around evening for giving out some fruits.
I was waiting for the clock to hit 7 pm and I quickened my steps to downstairs, I knocked on the door, it took almost a whole of 5 minutes for the door to click and open, he turned his back and walked inside.
"Come in, You must be Pete right? " He was pouring a glass of water and his back towards me, I was just sitting on the sofa waiting for him to turn but it was taking him forever.
"I had been away for a while, I thought I should give you some space to be comfortable. So, do you like the house? "

" I love it, and thanks for considering the case and I apologize for the discomfort. " His voice seemed familiar but his back was still turned to me.

" Don't mention that and by the way I am Vegas. Well it's not the first time we met. "
He turned towards me, and my mouth fell to the floor in horror and shock, he was that pervert from back then. Means the pervert back then was Kinn's Cousin Vegas, whose house I am staying right now.
