I Thought I Was A Devil

Season 5 Side Story

Leo and King:

Trigger Warning:

As the tension mounted between Jules and me that evening, brother Leo, anxiously waited near the park. He paced back and forth, fidgeting with his fingers, until finally, with a gulp, he reached into his pocket and pulled out his phone. Dialing my number, he was met with the automated message: "The number you are calling is currently switched off, please try later." His heart skipped a beat, the anxiety intensifying. Despite numerous attempts to reach me, he only grew more uneasy and helpless with each unsuccessful call. Feeling overwhelmed with stress, he found himself at a loss for what to do next. Rather than making a decision, he opted to reach out to King instead of coming to see me, aware that I might not appreciate him meddling in my affairs.

He taps his feet Impatiently, while waiting for King to pick up the call. He bit his lip betraying his ego that was breaking into pieces by calling his own brother. I never understood why they had such strong rivalry and hatred towards each other, even though they are twins. I thought most twins shares strong bonds with each other, just like Angela and me. I guess, these two are of different breeds. Finally King picked up the call after few seconds as he hears Brother Leo breathing loudly and panicking even before he could speak.

King was out for a candle light dinner with his new girlfriend when he notices his phone ringing. Picking up the phone in his hand, he checks the name and frowns. Then he looks at his date and smiles widely before kissing the back of her hand.

King: I am sorry dear. But there is an emergency, so we need to conclude our date for today. (He says feeling ashamed) I promise that I will make it up for you, the next time we meet. (He places her hand against her cheek)

Woman: (she pouts slightly but King's charm worked out smoothly as she blushes) F-Fine, but don't do this next time. (She says getting up)

King: (gets up as well as he kisses her lips) I promise. (He says before paying the bill and getting out of the restaurant after her. Before picking up the call as he hears the nervous panting of Leo from other end and hardens his jaw while trying to remain calm) tell me.....what happened to Anne?

Leo: (he blinks confused and surprised at the same time) How did you know?

King: Why else would you call me? (He sighs) Stop beating around the bush and shot.

Leo: Arg....fine. I don't have energy to argue with you anyway. (He bit his lower lip showing distaste regarding the situation) Anne....she promised to meet me after school today.

King: So you people are making plans behind my back huh. (He says with a hint of jealousy)

Leo: Is that important right now? (He frowns)

King: Tsk, fine. I will keep that topic for later discussion. Now continue. (He pouts)

Leo: A-Anne....s-she never showed up for our appointment. (He bit his lower lip while stammering) A-And her phone is not reachable. What should I do? I am getting worried. (His heartbeat starts increasing again, as he breathes heavily while panicking) King, what if something bad happened with our sister? What if she is dying or something? What if.....what if......

King: Jeez, calm down. (He runs his fingers through his hair) Where are you?

Leo: Near the park. Why? (He asks)

King: Stay there, while I find out what is going on. (He sighs) And stop panicking, our sister is strong. Nothing will happen to her. (He says before disconnecting the call, even though he was worried, he tried not to panic, knowing that getting stressed won't give a solution.)
