Just friends

Secret Allies

Allen's perspective

My brothers finally went home, God why are they so clingy.

I was trying roam around the hospital, looking for that smelly creep.

And there I saw him in his bright yellow Porsche boxster 3, I would have dropped my mouth in awe for his car.

But, I got to say, for someone who I am trying to hide from everyone, he's pretty much. Stupid.

I went to him.

"Are you really trying to kill us both?" I told him.

He looked at me, looking half dead and half asleep.

"What?" He asked.

"Well, you could have used a more subtle car, if you dont want anyone to see you." I told him.

"I just want to see her, please." He said. This guy, is crazy.

I took a deep breath. "Whatever"

I asked him to come inside the hospital.

"Doc..." the guard said to me.

"I got this." I said, and tap the shoulder of the guard. I signal to him to keep quite.

The security guard looked down, as if he did not see anything.

I don't normally do this. I cant believe I am doing this.

"How's aya?" He said in a soft voice.

"She's probably sleeping right now" I said.

"Is she ok?" He said, I can feel the sincerity in his voice.

"We are still running some test, but she's getting better now." I said.

He released a sigh of relief.

I never expected this from him. Not from all the news we heard about him, they never mentioned him like this.

We reached aya's room. He slowly opened the door.

He went beside aya's bed side, and held her hand.

He kissed it. Softly. His tears started to fall from his eyes.

I went close to him, and tap his shoulders.

"She's gonna be fine." I tried consoling him.

I cant believe we were wrong about him, he does love our sister.

He does care about her. Even the blind man can see that.

We were silent for a few hours, he just remained staring at my sister.

Holding her hand.

It was 3:30 am, and I woke up from my nap, he was still there, holding aya's hand.

"You can let go of her hand, she wont be going anywhere." I joked.

"I'll never let her go again."

"I was joking. You don't have to be so serious" I said.

He did not respond.

"By the way. Thank you for saving my sister, and calling me" I said.

"But, I'm just curious. Why did you call me? Why me?"

"Your the first person in aya's phone."

"Hmm.. that figures."

"And, I was hoping you'd see my real intention to your sister." He said and looked in my eyes.

"I know I'm not perfect. I'm far from perfect, you have all the right to think that I dont deserve her."

"Even I dont believe I deserve her. But, I love her so much that I cannot live without her anymore." He said.

"Was all the stories about you, true?" I asked.

"About what?" He smirked.

"That I was a known cassanova. That I changed girls as often as I change my clothes. That, I... killed someone."

My eyes almost popped out when he said the last part.

"So did you kill him?"

"Maybe." He said and looked down.

"I did not pull the trigger, but I was the reason he put the gun on his head." He said.

"What do you mean?"

"I dont want to talk about it anymore." He said.

"I need to know." I told him.

"Why?" He said and smirked.

"If I am putting myself for you, atleast make me believe that your worth the risk. That, I'm not having the worst mistake of helping you and my only sister." I told him.

His face lit up, looked at me and jumped to hug me.

Damn.

I stopped him by shielding my hand to his face.

"I said, make me believe first. You have to prove to me that your worth it." I told him.

"Yes, Kuya Allen!" He said with a mischievous smile.

"Kuya Allen your face!" I told him, and we both laughed.
