A/N: The picture above is what their house look like. The siblings live there alone because their helpers, cleaners and gardeners live in a small house that is in a bit of a distance from the manor. Photo grabbed from Pinterest.
It was a rather chilly night in the Braveheart Manor, despite the wood burning in the fireplace. The heat it emits did not even reach the empty heart of the now orphaned Braveheart children. It is not enough to replace the cold embrace of the sadness surrounding the siblings. Their pretty faces are now all grim and confused. Nothing could be heard except the ocassional sobs of the Bravehearts.
The eldest of the Bravehearts, Niklaus looked absent-mindedly at the fire, he felt as if it was taunting him, provoking him to rebel, to deny the devastating truth and responsibility him and his eleven other siblings have to face.
Napalingon ang magkakapatid sa mga papalapit na yabag patungo sa salas. Dalawang tao ang dumating, isang babaeng may napakaamong mukha at may itim na buhok na abot hanggang sa kaniyang bewang, dark pair of eyes, and pink plump lips...Kara... the ninth of the Bravehearts. Kasama niya ang isang lalaking may kulot na buhok si Ramses...the third eldest Braveheart. The two just came back from a trip in Arizona that was cut short because of the news of their Father's demise.
"Kuya Nik---" Kara didn't even managed to say anything else as the sudden burst of emotions consumed her. Niklaus enveloped his sister in an embrace.
Ramses also called out to his brother in a rather hoarse voice "Kuya..." Niklaus embraced Ramses as Kara came to her other siblings.
"Did you have any trouble on your way here?" Tanong ni Niklaus sa kalmadong boses.
"It was fine Nik, how about you? How are you holding up? ...P-paano nangyari ang lahat?"
"I'm fine, you two should sit down first."
"Nik, hindi mo kailangang magkunwari... it's okay, we all lost our father, we all feel the same." Kara said in a gentle voice that almost made him break down but one look at all his siblings made him feel otherwise. As the eldest, he can't be weak, not now...they need him.
"What really happened to Dad?" Ramses asked his siblings, no one dared to speak with the fear of breaking down. But the youngest managed to answer him in between sobs.
"Si Dad...nasa kwarto siya kagabi at nandun din ako para painumin siya ng gamot niya...then...h-he asked me to make him h-his...favorite tea...then, nung bumalik ako sa room niya...he was lying on the floor! Drenched in blood...!" Ramses looked at his sister in pity at mabilis siyang lumapit upang yakapin ito. It was somehow brave of her to speak out the horrendous scene she personally witnessed of their beloved father.
