Today was like any normal day, wandering along the long trails of sand. It seemed like it could go forever. It wasn't long before I wandered back into the pod to find Lo'ak being lectured. Whatever crazy thing was happening, Lo'ak was always somehow involved. After the lecture was done I walked up to him.
"As your older brother, I think you should tell me what you did." I placed my hand on his shoulder and nodded a bit.
"Fine. I snuck out at night yesterday." Lo'ak came clean, but it wasn't the full story.
"Don't get caught next time." I laughed a bit and walked away from my brother.
It may come off that I don't like my brother very much, I was petty to him mostly all the time. But Lo'ak is my brother, I couldn't possibly hate him. Not like how I hate Aonung. Our way of showing our hate for each other isn't what you'd expect but, he's an arrogant dickhead and I hate him with all my guts.
This morning I didn't feel like doing anything, I didn't have the energy to make full interactions. I make my way to the dock, but I haven't been able to enjoy its beauty. I would always get interrupted by something and I guess today was no different. I glanced up from the water to see Aonung and a few of his making their way past the coral to go hunting. I just couldn't keep my eyes from batting at him. 𝘞𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘢𝘮 𝘐 𝘥𝘰𝘪𝘯𝘨? 𝘞𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘪𝘧 𝘈𝘰𝘯𝘶𝘯𝘨 𝘴𝘦𝘦𝘴 𝘮𝘦? That's what my brain was telling me but my body had different ideas. While Aonung was scouting in the area, he saw me staring at him. I'm guessing he could tell that it wasn't a look of hatred because he started to stare right back. We were checking each other out at this point, I couldn't take it. I got up from Aonung's sight and left. Why is he such a hot dickhead? I couldn't control my thoughts. He has had a stick up his ass since the day we came here, I wanted to beat his ass from the day I came here and I still do. I walked to a quiet place where I knew I wouldn't come across someone. I just needed to work out my thoughts because they had their ideas.
"Something up?" I looked behind and there stood my dad.
"No, just getting some peace and quiet." That was the truth, I just needed to get Aonung out of my head. That dickhead cast a spell on me or something.
"Alright, have fun"
"Yeah, thanks" He walked out of sight, and I waited till I couldn't hear his footsteps to let out a big sigh. 𝘐'𝘮 𝘴𝘶𝘤𝘩 𝘢 𝘥𝘶𝘮𝘣𝘢𝘴𝘴. That was the only thing I could think about.
