NB: this chapter is Jerry's point of view before and after Layler attacked Frank.

I arrive in my office and I find my brother and my uncle already settled. My uncle is seating on my chair and I take a seat next to Caleb.

"Hey" I say.

"Mmmmm" Caleb says.

"Where are your manners, Hey?" My uncle says.
Ugh the family formalities.

"Forgive me uncle, greetings"

"Your aunt Bathsheba recently contacted me, she is in Britain and I want to bring her back here, but we do not know where we stand with the Messiahs" My uncle says.

"Uncle, just kill her so that Aunt Bathsheba can move back here and that would make everyone in the family happy" Caleb says.

"Kill who?” l ask clearly they have discussed more, because I seem to be receiving summaries.

"Layler Messiah" What! That cannot happen! Play along Jerry my inner voice adds, fuck that.

"No we are not killing her" I finally say.

"I agree with Jerry, Caleb think of something else” My uncle says.

"Kill her gosh!" He stays true to his words.

"Caleb, killing Layler isn't an option" I say.

"Yes nephew, although we do not know what she might do if we do not"

"Uncle Frank why haven't you killed her? You already killed her father anyway"

"And so? That doesn't mean he must wipe out the entire generation"

"Why’re you so against this!?"

"I do not believe in human slaughter"

"Says the guy who murdered a man to get close to a woman he refuses to kill!"

"Shut up you two! She is my daughter okay!"

I hear the door open and I wear a shocked expression on my face as I realize that Layler is standing by the door.

"Layler" I say as I walk towards her.

"Do not get any closer" She says with hatred in her eyes as she looks at my uncle.

"How long have you been standing there?" He asks.

She pushes me to the floor, pulls the chair that the Caleb is seating on, she pulls it from behind and uses great force to push him and the chair to the side. She sends the laptop on my table flying across the room. What is wrong with her!

She jumps the desk and then she stands face to face with my uncle.
My uncle is a man who fights his own battles surely he can handle Layler so I watch in shock and excitement, shock because she might be my cousin and excitement because she looks sexy and fierce right now.

"You sick bastard" She says as she grabs him by the collar and pushes him next to the window.

"If I didn't have better plans for your death I would have pushed you through this window seconds ago"
Ouch! She has better plans? I hope that I am excluded, no seriously I hope so.

"Listen and listen very well, I told you years back that I will come for you, I gave you a head start a long time ago, you had tricks along the track, but I finally caught up with you, we’re almost at the end of the race, but you won't make it to the finish Line"
This chick is seriously hot!
My uncle laughs as if she just said some funny joke.

"Okay laugh, killing you and your family and little daughter you have in hiding will be funny" And with that she walks away.

"What was that all about?" Caleb asks.

"You knew she was listening so you decided to make up that you are her father" I laugh.

"Layler is your cousin and no one touches her, now clean up this mess" My uncle says and then he walks out.

"Must suck for you bro, finding out that you were actually fucking your own cousin" Caleb laughs.

"Excuse me?"

"Oh yes...I know...I know bro, clean up" He says as he walks out.

Layler is my cousin? But how? I need answers and my uncle won't bother to answer me. I cannot ask Layler because she took this quite lightly, but it enraged her further.
Wait but what was she doing here in the first place? She hasn't seen me in two weeks and then she decides to rock up at my work place? I wonder.
I clean up and get back to work, I lead a boring life really, no friends, my family members are all in Britain, my brother is always fucking his blonde nerd, argggg goofball, nerds shouldn't fuck. My uncle is always in Britain but he controls every aspect of mine and Caleb's lives.

Tuesday is Layler’s birthday so I will go and check up on her, she must really hate me right now so I will give her a chance to cool off.
I would have ran after her, just that my uncle made things worse. I could explain Frank being my uncle, and try to I don't know, chill ...whatever people who like each other do. Now what do I say to a girl who is actually my cousin?
