I thought you hate me

Chapter 5

The weeks passed by and Bonnie was surprised how rarely she met Kai since their last meeting. She ignored him as hard as she could as he kept annoying her, but when she accepted his apologize he started to stay away from her? The few times she had seen him – mostly at the Salvatore mansion, for whatever reason – he just greeted her and disappeared afterwards. The others said he wasn't planning something but a wedding gift for Jo and Alaric, but somehow she couldn't really believe that. Especially since he wasn't officially invited to the wedding which was already in a few days.

When Bonnie decided to visit the house of the Salvatore's, she didn't meet Kai but his better half. And with that, she meant literally his better half; his twin sister Jo.

»Hey Jo«, Bonnie greeted her. »Already nervous? «

Jo laughed quietly, but one could hear a nervous undertone in her voice anyway. »I don't even have time to think about what will happen the next days, how could I be nervous? «

Bonnie smiled slightly. »So much to do at the hospital? «

»Wish it would be. «, she gave back and sighed. »More that my annoying brother is always lurking around my front door and wants to do something. «

Bonnie raised an eyebrow. »Kai? «, she asked to be sure.

The expression in Jo's eyes became a bit sad. »Don't have another one any more. «

Bonnie nodded quickly and went on what Jo had said before. »What do you mean with that? With 'wants to do something'? «

Jo laughed and put the stack of paper on the table which she had hold in her arms the whole time. »I gave him some of Liv's DVDs and hoped that he would stay away from me. Sadly, he kept phoning me regularly anyway and complained about how much he missed the last eighteen years. «

Bonnie laughed together with her and imagined Kai, sitting in front of his TV alone at home and watching old movies.

She opened her mouth to say something as Jo's phone began to ring. She gave her an apologizing gaze before she put her phone from her pocket. Sighing, she answered the call. »What is it, Kai? «

Bonnie watched Jo's annoyed expression while she listened to the really long answer of her brother.

»It's just a film, Kai. – No. – Why should I know something like that?. – Stop ... - I hang up now. Bonnie's here, it's really impolite to speak to you now. Yes - « Jo looked at her. »Kai said hi. «

Bonnie just nodded and said down at the kitchen table while Jo tried to get rid of her brother. She sighed as she finally hung up.

»One day, this guy will kill me«, Jo murmured to herself and added for Bonnie: »And I don't mean physically! «

Bonnie grinned. She didn't want it though. »What did he do? «

»He's alone at home and watching the DVDs I gave him. And now he's complaining that he doesn't like the ending. Guess I'll have to look after him, it seems like he's drunk. I don't want him to walk around like that and - « Something in her pocket started to make a loud noise and Jo put it out. It was something like a detector; Bonnie guessed that she needed it for work. »Crap«, she cursed and narrowed her eyes.

»What's wrong? «, Bonnie asked and watched her. Jo sighed again.

»One of the surgeons at the hospital suddenly became sick and I have to take his shift. «, she said quickly and put all her stuff back in her pocket. »And Ric is away with Damon and I can't asked him to look after Kai - « Jo seemed to try to find a solution, but her face lightened up when she looked at Bonnie again.
