The Oddities Of Life

8. Blood brother in town

3rd May, 2017

So we lost the match today, which surprisingly didn't dispirit me much, on the thoughts of having a good friend who is ready to do anything to keep me happy.

The most awaited 2-week public holidays have arrived and I have a lot of To-do-lists piled up in my head. I had to go for ice skating with Leo and group at 5 in the evening and so I decided to get myself engaged quick enough.

First of all , I went to the supermarket to fetch the stuffs which my mom had asked me to ( Yeah she always gives me a lot of chores to do!). Then I made sure that Blubby had access to all that he needed. And finally it was time for the skater to get ready.

Just then a red car began honking by 4:45 itself and it was none other than Theo's car.

*JUST TO CLEAN THE AIR...BY RED CAR , I DO NOT MEAN TO GIVE THE IMPRESSION OF A DATE NIGHT OR ANYTHING! *

I could see Leo dying from a nervous breakdown as he lied to me earlier that he is an expert in ice skating. This whole thing was basically my idea because I wanted Leo to tell me the truth and make him feel that I'm always there for his help.

On arriving at the destination, Leo wanted to use the restroom. I puffed up my laughter and told him to take his own time.

Just as our eyes fell on the rink, we waited for no one, put on our skates and rushed to the arena. While Ella and I danced about with pride, I could see the three guys breaking their legs each minute. It was so funny to watch them that I didn't see a slightly cracked ice surface and almost tripped, and the next thing I knew was being held by a blonde, muscular guy with eyes as blue and as deep as the Pacific Ocean that you could just get lost in it forever. It looked just like any romantic movie scene and I pretended as if I was damn namby-pamby to get up from his arms. That's when Leo rushed in his sneakers and pulled me over.

"Hello brother", he said, giving a one-sided wink. Leo on the other hand looked frustrated and so vexed that he could literally cause an explosion.

"What are you doing here?", Leo began rising up. "Oh come on Leo. Don't you wanna give me a hearty welcome after all these years? By the way , I see I've missed a lot of things and so would you mind updating me with everything?" , he looked coyly at me.

"You never told me that you had a brother" , I looked dubiously at Leo.

"Hasn't he? Damn Leo , make sure you have no more secrets with your new girlfriend!" At this, the whole gang began giving him death glares.

Hi , I'm Jordan , Leo's elder brother!" , he said scornfully.

"I'm Aria and hey..thanks for saving me from almost breaking my spine" , I chuckled.

"We need to leave Aria" , Leo pulled me.

"But we just came here a few minutes ago and why do you wanna leave so early? Plus you haven't swanked your skating skills yet." , I joked.

"Hahaha , Leo , you skate? Your dissembling game is still on , isn't it? , Jordan smirked.

But as soon as Leo got up with clenched fists , Gale pulled him right over and demanded me to get in the car fast.

I never saw Leo this angry. In fact he is the most calm person you'll ever come across. He didn't even text me at night like he does usually. I was indeed very pissed off by the fact that he hid a lot of truths from me. And I think this is rising a few suspicions in me about him.

A/N : So what do u think about this chapter?!! Jordy seems to be a badass huh?!
I'm really sorry for the late update and I apologise if I made the chapter seem boring. Aaaaand yeahhh this is a looong one....but guys, don't you think that when you have an awesome plot set in ur head, then it's really difficult to stop writing!
