Bitter Gourd

Riley's POV

" Where is your grandma?" I asked him.

" She is inside." He said.

" Let's go. Let's meet her." I said.

" Yes. Let's go." He said and we walked towards the cabin.

" Your Aunt lives with you guys?" I asked him looking at the lady from afar who was busy with her phone. It's better if we don't meet each other.

" No, they live in the UK. They are visiting us for a few days." He said confusedly. I nodded.

" Oh, ok." I said. He nodded.

" You stay here. I will just come." I said.

" Who are you?" Suddenly I heard a voice and turned to see the owner of the voice. I found a boy standing there who looks closely alike to Josh but a few years younger than him. He must be Josh's brother. Let's irritate him a bit.

" I am RD. Who are you?" I asked him.

" What are you doing here?" He asked me Suspiciously. I rolled my eyes.

" You didn't answer my question. Why will I answer yours?" I asked him.

" Because... You.." he was thinking what he should answer me. I chuckled inwardly.

" Yes. Tell me what do you want to tell me as an accuse? " I asked him and he looked at me quietly for awhile then shook his head.

" I am Bryan." He said. " Now answer me why are you here?" He asked me stubbornly. Such a kid!!!

" What does people do in the hospital? " I asked him.

" They don't roam around suspiciously for sure." He said and I rolled my eyes.

" I was having a date here. But suddenly I lost him somewhere. So, I was searching for him. Did you see him around?" I asked him rolling my eyes. He narrowed his eyes at me and I also did the same. He started to laugh suddenly.

" You are so funny, RD." He said then stopped. He looked at me sharply again. " What are you doing here?" He asked me.

" Roaming around." I said to him.

" Why is that?" He asked me.

" My wish." I said.

" Really?" He asked me.

" Yes." I said.

" Is that your hobby to roam around randomly?" He asked me.

" Yes, you can say that." I said to him.

" Alright then. But it is not a good thing to do. " He said.

" Yeah, I will take that note. Thanks for suggesting." I said.

" You are welcome. " He replied.

" Then you can go and do your works and I will search for my date." I said and he chuckled.

" What's going on here?" I heard Josh asking us.

" Nothing. I think this is your brother. He was enquiring me like a criminal. But he is cute anyways." I said to him and Bryan looked at me sharply.

" She is my friend." Josh said and Bryan rolled his eyes.

" You could just have said that straight." Bryan said still looking at me suspiciously. I chuckled at his expression.

" If I had told you things that easily then you would just have forgotten me very easily. Now that I have had a sweet time with you, you will remember me for long." I said. Bryan looked at me weirdly and I smiled widely. He looked a bit confused.

" She has a bit mental issue." Josh said and I glared at him.

" A bit?! I thought she has run away from the mental asylum." Bryan said. I rolled my eyes.

" Thank you." I said to him and he rolled his eyes.

" Well, this is Bryan my younger brother as you already know that." Josh said.

" Yeah, I do." I said.

" And this is RD." Josh said.

" She told me her name. It's weird like her." Bryan said and I glared at him.

" You are weird." I said.

" You are weird." He said.

" You, you, you." We started to fight like kids.

" Stop both of you. Are you both kids?" We stopped as Josh scolded us both. I twisted my lips at Bryan and he rolled his eyes.

" By the way, is grandma awake?" Josh asked Bryan.

" Yes, she was asking for you. I told her that you are in the OT." He said.

" Good. Let's go. Let's meet grandma." He said. He dragged me towards the cabin and Bryan followed us.

" Where is Lima? Hasn't she come yet?" I asked him looking around as I didn't find her.

" How do you know her?" Bryan asked me sharply. I rolled my eyes.

" Can't you give a normal expression?! Everytime you look like you are ready to kill someone." I said.

" Why don't you give answers straight?" He asked me.

" Because you act weird." I said.

" I don't." He said.

" As I am Josh's friend it's not abnormal for me knowing about Josh's girlfriend. It's abnormal if I don't know her, Right?" I asked him. He thought fir a second then nodded.

" By the way, I know her because we worked for the same agency before." I said.

" See? You still have to twist your words." He said and I chuckled. "By the way, are you a model too?" He asked me.

" Nope. I am a fashion designer. Do you think people will like a mental asylum escaped model?" I asked him and he chuckled.

" You are unique." Bryan said and I rolled my eyes.

" Where is Lima?" I asked again.

" Why are you after her?" Josh asked me.

" I was just asking." I said. " And it's been a long since we met last time. Besides, I have a offer for her. We need some models for our fashion house. If she wants to work with us then it would be very nice." I said honestly. I will not interfere in their personal lives anymore. It's their lives they will handle it.

" Umm...I called her and she said she is busy currently." Bryan said.

" Busy?! In the middle of the night?! Why? Does she do the night duty?" I said and both me and Bryan burst out laughing. But we stopped at once finding Josh glaring at us.

" Well ..umm ... Bryan, let's go and meet your granny." I said and looked at Josh with the corner of my eyes.

We entered the cabin and I was shocked as soon as I saw the lady laying on the bed. She is Josh's grandma?!! She is very sweet and kind. Then how turned Josh turned to be a bitter gourd?!!
