"Hey ya, Luka. Your parents still out, huh?" Asked a girl with long white hair.
This is my aunt, Echo. Technically, she's not actually blood-related to my mom but they have a sister bond so I call her my aunt.
"Yeah. Seems like it. What do they even do when they go out like this?" I wondered.
"What? They never told you that they're super secret ninjas?" Echo asked with a smile.
I chuckled, taking it as the joke it was.
I guess even Echo's kept in the dark about my parents' job. Or maybe she's just keeping it a secret from me. But whatever. I guess it's kinda fun to guess what they could be doing. I hope they tell me one day though...
"How's Yachel?" I asked.
"Annoying as always but fine regardless. He actually went out to help his brother on that job. I don't think your father approved but Yachel can be very determined when it comes to him and your father," the girl told me.
I smiled.
"Good to see they're getting along then. I haven't seen him in a while," I mentioned.
You see, my father and his brother don't always get along too well. It's pretty funny to see them when they're together though. They're like a pair a three-year-olds, always arguing over everything. Hehe. It's definitely very amusing to watch.
"So want me to make you a sandwich or anything?" She asked.
"I'm fine. Are we still getting pizza for dinner?" I told her.
"Hah. Again? Sure. I'll go order it now, ok? I'll be downstairs if you want anything," she told me with a smile.
"Thanks," I smiled back as she left the room.
Hm... I wonder where Kyo and Infinity ended up going...
"Infinity?! Well, are you just gonna stand there all night?" asked Kyo to a distracted Infinity, gazing at my window.
"..." he didn't say a word in reply.
"Hey! Don't ignore me!" Ordered Kyo as he punched Infinity hard in his face, causing him to fall to the floor with a bloody mouth.
"Did you feel that, Mr heartless?" he asked.
"No. Your punches are weak. Even Luka could punch harder than you," Infinity told him plainly with a fixed expression.
"Ha. Miss Rose has indeed caught your eye, has she not?" Kyo told him as Infinity got up and wiped the blood from his lip.
"Not for long. I assure you, I won't allow her to get further access to information on me," Infinity claimed.
