Perfectly Strangers | KaoRhys

Chapter 17

Rhys' POV
(Ten days before Kaori returned to the Philippines)

"I'm so happy that you're finally home again, kuya!" My sister happily welcome me home and hugged me. "I missed you so much."

"Yeah, I missed you too." I replied.

"So you're really back for good?" She asked.

"Yes Blythe, I'm not going anywhere so let me go already." I clarified.

"Okay." She said and let go. "So... did you talk to kuya Andre already?" She asked.

"Not yet." I answered.

"How about Dad?"

"Maybe later."

"And...Lolo?" She skeptically asked.

"Look, I'm tired from my flight. I need some rest. We'll talk later, okay?" I exclaimed.

"Fine. I'll stop being makulit na, so go get some rest. I'm just glad na bumalik ka na, kuya." She said and finally closed the door.

I lay down on my bed and spectate my room. It's been awhile bed. I speak to my mind as I closed my eyes.

Don't be a stranger.

I suddenly remember the gift she gave me. I directly opened my bag and get the box.

I took out the dream catcher and find a place to hang it.

Where should I put you?

"There." I'm excited to say and found a spot. I hanged it near my bed.

I lay down on my bed again and closed my eyes with a smile on my face.

I woke up and check the time. It's 09:16 in the morning. I overslept. But I felt better. Maybe it's because of this. I thought while I touch the feather of the dream catcher.

As I'm still lying in bed meditating, my phone rings. It's Argel calling, I answered it.

"Pinapapunta ka ni Chairman sa Euphoria."he stated. And I thought it would a good day.

"Okay. I'll be there." I replied and hang up.

I got out of bed, took a shower and get dressed.

As I left the room, I rashly walked out passed the dining room.

"Good Morning young master." The butler of the house greeted me.

"Good Morning." I heard my Dad greeted me so I stopped from walking and turned around. "Breakfast?" My Dad said and I failed to escape.

"Good Morning kuya. Going somewhere?" My sister sarcastically asked me as I sat down to eat breakfast.

"Pupunta kaba sa Euphoria ngayon?" My Dad asked me.

"Yes." I replied shortly.

"Give all your school papers to my secretary. Siya na ang bahalang umasikaso sa enrollment mo." He stated, I just nodded.
