"What do you think you're doing?!"
Tin asked gripping his openents arm hard.

Can who was suprised to see Tin immediately grabbed his hand to remove it on Jacques..

"Tin release him please."
Can pleaded, worried that Jacques right arm will be hurt again.

Tin looked at Can with disappointment.
"Why are you worried about him?"
"Is he so much of importance to you Can?"
"Did you forgot about me that easily?"
He wanted to ask him these questions..
But he kept silent..

Jacques in turned grabbed Tin's using his free left hand then spoked flatly.
"As Can said. Can you release my arm?"

Tin didn't look at Jacques.

His eyes were focused only on Can.

Can looked apologetically at Jacques then angrily at his now deaf stepbrother.

"Tin.. release Jacques arm."
The worry on Can's head was blinding him in handling the situation.

Aside from worrying that Jacques would be hurt..
He is scared that Tin would be put in trouble because of that.

Tin slowly loosened his grip.

Tin turned to Can then forcefully pulled him.

Jacques accepted the challenge and pulled Can back.

Can shouted softly when he felt the sudden tug on both arms.

"I only see this on movies.."
Can thought as the two were playing tug of wars and he is unfortunately the rope.

"Stoppppp it"
Can said snapping at the two..
"What am I to both of you?"
"A human rope?"

The two released him..
And Jacques was fast enough to talk.

"Can.."
Jacques called him.
"I'm not sure what he is to you."
"And I don't think he's in the mood to talk.."
He looked at Tin angrily.
"Why don't you have breakfast with me first?"
"So you can also wait for your phone to be full?"

Can suddenly felt he was on dangerous grounds..

He wanted to shout at Jacques.
"Why in hell did you choose to say those things now?"

He looked at Tin..
His eyes were furious now..

"Hmmm..Jacques.."
"I'll just get my phone later."
Can said with a forced smile..

"Okay.."
Jacques looked at Can like he was the only one there..
"Then I'll just wat for you here instead."

"No..."
"It's okay Jacques.."
"I'll  be fine.."
Can said reassuringly.

Tin couldn't take it.
"Mind your own business."
"Don't meddle with our affairs."

Jacques was about to answer Tin but Can intercepted.
"It's okay Jacques.. He's my Stepbrother.."

Tin stiffened upon hearing how Can introduced him.

"I'll see you later Jacques.."
Can smiled at him then took the keys from his hand
 
He then walked passed Tin.

Can opened the door and went inside.

Tin followed Can leaving one last angry look at Jacques then closed the door with a loud thud.

Jacques stood there and sighed.

He worriedly walked to the elevator to go back to his own place.
