Xander's POV
"Hey! Wait up" Sophie called behind me as I walked away
So many thoughts were running through my mind
I suddenly stopped and faced her
"You....Sophie.... Why did you bleed that day?"
"What day?" She asked, confusion evident on her angelic features
"The day you fainted and bled on the bed...that you had to be rushed to the hospital"
"Ohh the day you threw my pills away" She teased
"That wasn't necessary" I groaned and she smiled
"I fell from a cliff back home before coming for the maid's program. The injury wasn't properly healed so it opened up again"
"What's leukocytosis?" I asked her
"Just a little white blood cells illness" She shrugged and walked off
"You know....you're weird and mysterious" I voiced out and she chuckled
"I get that a lot alright"
"How can you possibly help Black Eagles?" I asked staring into her eyes
"We'll see Xander" she said and I noticed a glint in her eyes
I shuddered suddenly,
this was a very familiar feeling
"Hey! Who the fuck are you!!"
"For a kid...you cuss a lot"
"Don't fucking judge me, you don't know me"
"Okay that's enough...I'm pretty sure I'm older than you with a few years"
"So?"
"Call me brother Alexander"
"Brother my foot"
"Earth to Xander" Sophie called out and I snapped out of my trance
"Yeah what were you saying?"
"We should leave"
"right---- leave"
"Are you okay?" She asked in concern
"Yeah sure I'm good"
I wasn't good...... I couldn't get her off my mind

After getting home, Sophie headed straight to her room because she got a call from someone
I walked towards the storage room and sat on a chair in there, slamming the door and welcoming privacy
Sophie
"Hey what's up?" I said in to the phone
"Miss, we've seen Lory"
"Where is he?"
"He's with his babysitter"
"Hold on, I'll call Sarah right now"
"Yes miss"
"Yes S--sophie"
"Where is Lory?"
"I...I...left him with a babysitter.... but she called that he went..m-m-missing"
