__________________________

"Syd!", I hear a familiar voice yell behind me as I am reaching for the top rack to get some cereal, Harry's favorite cerial. I instantly turn around and smile as I see Kenneth walking towards me with a smile playing on his lips.

"Hi Kenny", I greet him as he takes me in for a hug and I hesitate to hug him back but I do, so I don't make things awkward for either of us.

"What are you doing here?"

"Trying to get some cereal", I shrug and point at the cereal box, that I tried to get from the rack. Kenneth picks it for me without any problems. He's tall enough to reach it but he has to stand on the tips of his toes to reach it, he still made it look so effortless.

"Thanks", I smile at him and he returns it.

"Buying these for Harry?", he asks with a frown as I nod. "Are you paying for it?"

"No, he gave me some cash"

"You two sound like a married couple", he chuckles and I frown. "He's always loved these", he continues, eyeing the box.

"How long have you known him?", I ask with my eyebrows raised. He's always loved these. So they must have known each other-

"Since we were kids", He interrupts my thoughts. "He has always had this hatred towards me ever since my dad married his mother", he says, shaking his head.

"What?", I gasp. "You're step-brothers?", I ask with disbelief.

"Yup... Unfortunately", he sighs. Reminds me so much of that time when Harry said he knew Kenneth "unfortunately", he said back then. Why am I thinking about him so much nowadays? "He hasn't mentioned it?"

"Uhm no, he hasn't"

"I thought he would, because of your relationship and-"

"W-wait what?", I cut him off and let out a laugh. "We are not together.  I would never date someone like him", I say, I thought I already told him we were not together. After few seconds I notice that Kenneth is very quiet and stares behind me with a smirk. I furrow my eyebrows and turn around to see Harry standing behind me, eyes filled with anger and maybe even sadness. I suddenly feel very bad about saying I would never date someone like him. What did I even mean by 'someone like him'?

"Kenneth", Harry says with disgust.

"Harold", Kenneth mocks him.

"We should probably go", I say and motion Harry to come with me as I walk away. I turn around to see them giving each other angry glares. I clear my throat and Harry shots his head up and nods. He then walks away, bumping his shoulder with Kenneth’s and I roll my eyes. When Harry is by my side I start walking again, pushing the shopping cart as well.

"You didn't tell me you were step-brothers", I mumble as we walk down the halls between the huge racks. He sighs and runs his hand through his hair.

"Of course that little fucker had to tell that", he shakes his head and leans closer to me, looking at the list in my hand.

"Don't call him that", I scold him and hit his arm playfully which earns a small laugh from him.
