apologize

saint walk put from his car after done parking in front of his house. as usual, emi will stand in front of his gate with a plastic of street food in her hand while waiting for saint to come to her and do some conversation.

"so what do you have for me today emi ?"

emi smile then walk in then sit at the boot of his car.

"so at my work place not my in my work place exactly it's like around my workplace there is this one guy lo— wait...... what happened to your head ? there is bandage on and so on !"

saint look up and touch the bandage on his right forehead.

"oh this ? i got into a little fight with someone at work and got hurt just like you see. it's find just a little scratch, now continue your story"

"no i am not going to continue, now tell me what happened at your work"

saint took a sit on his boot car too right beside emi and loosened his tie and unbutton one of his shirt to make himself more comfortable.

"so there was something kind of bad luring out from mouth to mouth at campus today. so i asked my students the details about that things...."

saint looks at emi then sigh hard before continue to tell her more.

"....it's about one boy named.....warka"

hearing his younger brother name, emi's focus rising up to 200% percentages.

"tell me more saint, what about him ?"

"it's a scene from his high school, where he got into a big fight with his friends and ended up got hurt so badly and.....they told me that warka become deaf because one fatal move from his friends"

emi still looking at saint with serious face, she knows that saint have more things to tell him about what happened at his campus today but for some reason saint seems hesitated.

"tell me more saint, what happened after that ?"

saint took out his phone from his back pants pocket and open his gallery and show a pic to emi. it is a picture of warka during his high school at the school assembly.

"that's the boy i talk about"

emi took saint's phone, at first she tried to thought that maybe the boy that saint been telling her just another boy that have the same name and same fate as his brother but turned it really his brother. emi didn't even realizes that she beaming in tears knowing that his brother's name is in bad condition once again.

"th- then what happened after that ? how did you get hurt ?"

"my students told me that warka is a violence person and go punch and kick people for fun-"

"there is no way my brother would do that !"

"i know emi, now slow your voice down. listen to me first okay ?"

emi cover her mouth, knowing that she just blurted out that warka is her younger brother to saint. looking at saint's reaction, she assumed that saint already know that warka and her are siblings after all.

"my students also said that his friends said something that offended him in some way and that's why the big fight happened"

"s- so how did you get that injury on your head ?"

"this ? i got it from your older brother, jayden"

"what ?! you know jayden too ! the fuck are you ? a fucking stalker ?"

"wh- what ?! no ! why would i ?"

"i mean, who knows ?"

"not like that emi, at first i didn't know that jayden is your brother. i just found out today when my students told me about warka's rumor"
