Chasing Dreams (Book 2)

Thirty Nine

SiMON's POV

Sandro was surprised when he saw me waiting in the living room. I know. He didn't expect to see me here. Not at this time. I intently stare at him when I noticed Samantha behind the door. And she was sitting in a wheel chair. What the fck happened?!

My eyes went back to Sandro and I glared at him. I ran to him and held the collar of his shirt.

Simon: What have you done?!

He just clenched his jaw instead of answering me.

Samantha just glanced at me and continued to turn her head from left to right. She was looking at the entire house like this was the first time that she had been here. Then I noticed the bruises in her arms.

I left Sandro and walked towards her.

Simon: Sammy, what the hell happened?! Did Sandro hurt you?!

She blinks her eyes and gives me a blank stare.

Samantha: W-who-

Sandro: Simon. Stop!

Simon: Stop?! You better have a good explanation about this!

Sandro: Let her rest.

Simon: Fine.

Manang: Mag-usap kayo ng maayos. Huwag kayong mag-away sa harapan nya.

Simon: Opo, Manang.

Manang: Sandro, Iho. Hindi pa ayos ang guest room.

Sandro: Manang. Pakihatid po sya sa kwarto ko.

Simon: Kwarto mo?! Bakit sa kwarto mo?!

Sandro: Actually never mind. Manang, ako na po ang bahala.

He just ignored me and carried Samantha in a bridal position. She has a bandage on her feet too! He quickly went to the stairs but before he made a step, I called his name again.

Simon: Sandro!

Sandro: If you want to talk, we will talk. You better wait!

Then he faces his back at me. Manang told me what happened but I didn't expect that I would see Samantha like this. So this is why I thought of visiting here. Something bad happened.

SANDRO's POV

Samantha: Who's that guy?

I carefully put her to bed and fixed the pillow on her back.

Sandro: That's Simon. He's my brother.

Samantha: Older brother?

Sandro: No. I'm the eldest.

Samantha: Y-you are?

Sandro: I know. You noticed that he was taller than me. Wait until you see our youngest.

Samantha: What is his name? The youngest one.
