It Will End In A Kiss

Rude and Nosy

(BLU)

Robin stayed in his room the whole Sunday morning and afternoon. I envy him. I also want to stay in my room to avoid Mr.Akage but I don't have any excuse to do that.

Especially because it's my fault why Robin had a difficult time last night.

I can still see it. Everytime I am closing my eyes, that whole scene will play in my head. Robin's loud screams, the panic on Mr.Akage's face while trying to open the door of Robin's room, the force that slammed me on the wall when Mr.Gilbert shoved me out of the way to help his masters.

And when Robin fell on the living room, the helpless look of him won't get out of my head. As well as the sound of his sobbing.

I don't understand anything. I don't know what those were all about. I just know one thing...I caused Robin a lot of pain last night.

And also...I am scared to face Mr.Akage. I can still picture the fury in his eyes while he was asking who turned off the lights on Robin's room. I think if I was within his reach, Mr.Akage will hurt me.

He will hurt me really bad.

But this morning, Mr.Akage was calmed and composed once again while we were having breakfast.

"Gilbert, prepare a tray for Robin. Give him a light breakfast. Prepare some calming tea for him as well," Mr.Akage ordered in an even tone.

"Will do, Master Zane." Mr.Gilbert got busy serving us food and preparing a tray for Robin. I stared longingly at the Akages' butler, hoping against hope that Mr.Gilbert won't leave me alone with the older Akage.

But Mr.Gilbert left to feed Robin and I was left in the breakfast table with my guardian.

I look down at my plate. "I'm sorry, Sir." I decided to start this thing with an apology. "For what happened last night. I didn't mean to..."

"It's not your fault, Blu." Mr.Akage said. I looked up to check if I heard him right. My guardian nodded at me. "It's not your fault." He repeated.

I winced, "I think I should take some of the blame." I said.

Mr.Akage shook his head. "You are a kid. We are the adults in the house. We should have explained to you the rules in this house..."

"I am sixteen," I said. "Yeah, a minor still but I fairly know my right from wrong. I should have not acted like that. You welcomed me into your home but that doesn't mean that I should touch everything in it. Especially someone else's room..." my voice faded at that point in shame. "I am sorry,"

"I see," Mr.Akage nodded. "Thank you for taking the time to think about this and for bearing some of the blame. I see now that you are a thoughtful child, Blu."

I scratched my temple at his kind words. "Is Robin okay?" I finally asked the question I have been most curious about. "I didn't know he is that afraid of the dark."

"It's not that simple, Blu. I wish Robin is just afraid of the dark but it's more complicated than that. One day, he might tell you everything about him but for now, I hope you will keep your distance from my nephew. What happened last night is still fresh on his mind and he might lash out on the nearest person and I don't want that person to be you." Mr.Akage stared at me intently. "I know you have your doubts but I do care for your welfare, Blu. Your parents were my friends and I know how much they love you. I want you to be careful and not to get hurt. Do you understand?"
