Her World

Chapter Twenty-Eight

 Chapter 28

“Is this some kind of joke” I asked staring straight at him, I haven’t even turned to see what Meg looked like right now I was to focused on my ‘brother’ standing before me.

“Nope no Joke this is all real. I’m your brother, so you going to let me sit down or what” He didn’t ask, it was more like a command.

“Y-yeah” I shuffled my chair around to give him more room. He plonked himself on the chair in-between me and Megan. I finally looked up at Meg but she looked like she was in a state of shock, it was like she was frozen in her chair.

“Hey sweetheart, how about you go and get some more drinks ay?” Kyle asked Meg and then dumping some cash into her hands bringing her back to the real world.

“Yeah s-sure I can do that” She then stood up trying to play it call but just ended up falling over the chair leg making her stumble right into Kyle.

Kyle just held out his arms to catch her but this coursed Megan’s whole face to light up with a red tint. He just laughed as he brought her back to her feet before sending her on her way with a slap on her bum. I heard a yelp escape from Meg’s mouth but she kept on walking probably too embarrassed to turn back round. 

When Meg was finally away from us it went deadly quiet. I weren’t too sure what to say and I’m sure he was thinking the same. But one of us had to make this time when Meg wasn’t around so I broke the ice so to speak.

“Is this a joke?” I blurted out staring right at Kyle who for a second look startled by my question but then quickly recovered with a smirk.

“Oh no this isn’t a joke you really are my sister” He spat the word as if he was disgusted by it.

“When why do you treat me like shit?” I mumbled, it was true though he was my bully. He and Karla.

“I couldn’t have anyone know that we were related think of my reputation here. People would treat me like you and well who would want that” He laughed, I was hurt by his words but I wasn’t going to let him know that.

“No we couldn’t have that” I mutter. “So why are you here? I mean how did you know I would be here?” I was utterly confused.

“I’ve known for a long time that we are related, I just thought it was about time that you finally knew” He said before casually pulling out his phone, his eyes searching for something.

“Still doesn’t explain how you knew I was here” I stated.

“I got this look” He pushed his phone into my face; I had to move my head back to get a clear view of the text.

‘Time to face the music, ‘The Coffee Pot’ at 12:00pm. Don’t be late.’

“I have no idea who this person is but then when I saw you sitting there as I walked by I knew this is what it meant.” He said pulling his phone out of my reach back into his pocket.

“So how long have you known?” I enquired

“Since you started school but the question is how much do you know?” He asked scooting his chair closer to mine.

“Well I know that I’m adopted and there was a story how I was kidnapped... and erm how your mom is dead-“

“Our mom” He corrected.

“Yeah... well her husband your erm I mean our dad owes a lot of money and well I guess that’s about it” I finished then nervously rubbing the back of my neck.

“Yeah mom died a while back now and dad well went a bit wild so yeah he owes some money but that doesn’t concern you” I shot back but I was becoming angrier. What does he mean this doesn’t concern me? Of course it does!
