If I could describe what happened after Luke and Bright came inside the room it would be: Disaster.

They started arguing the moment they stepped inside the room and far too loud for my liking.

"What are you doing here?!" Bright immediately asks Luke with his eyes twitching. Honestly I dont know whether to laugh or be annoyed at him.

"I am here to visit Win! I even brought fruits! " he said emphasizing his fruit basket in hand. "Oh hey the dragon is also here!" He continues when he spotted Frank and He earned a glare from the boy.

"Who are you calling Dragon! Hmmmp!" Frank was about to stand up but I held him. "Sheesh you are all so noisy! Do you think arguing here is good for Win! " Nene stood up and lectured the three of them.

"Hahaha!!" I couldn't help but laugh at them right now. "Sorry I just couldn't! Pffffft! Ack!!!" Crap I laughed so hard that my broken ribs hurt a bit.

"Win! Are you okay!" Bright Immediately came beside me and looked really worried. I couldn't help but have that warm feeling in my chest because of his actions, but this is wrong.

He is my brother and I shouldn't have this feelings for him. After taking a deep breathe I answered him. " I am fine I just got too caught up in the moment I guess. I forgot I have an injured ribs" I smiled weakly.

Bright's phone rang and he excused himself. Nene then dragged Frank out of the room and I am here alone with Luke. "Could you pass me some of the apples on the table Luke?" I asked him.

"Apples huh? I heard you just woke up from Nene and now you want to fall asleep again?" He said while chuckling. "What, are you talking about?" I'm saying you have to be careful snow white. But maybe I shouldn't be worried. After all your prince charming is here." He said but his eyes are focused on the apples that he is peeling.

"Hey! Dont peel the skin!" I said  and he stopped what he is doing and handed me the apples. What he said made me think. What if I truly am inside a fairytale together with Bright? What would it feel like to have him as a prince?

To end all of my sadness with a true loves kiss. To have a guaranteed happily ever after in the end of my story. I took a bite of the apple and my mouth tasted it's sweetness.

"For one last time Luke, he isn't my prince. I wish I could believe in fairytales like you but I just can't. My reality is just too far from the delusions that I have." The tears I was holding back started to surface now that Bright isn't here.

I took another bite of my apple hoping that I could fall into an eternal slumber but to my dismay I only tasted the sweetness of this fruit. I was then hugged gently by Luke.

"Don't cry na okay? When we were talking on the road the last time you were crying I promised myself I would be your knight." He let go of me and then wiped my tears with his hands.

"I would be here to wipe your tears when no one is looking. You could always cry on me and I would be always there." He said to me smiling. I don't really know if it was his words or the warmth of his hug that comforted me.

All that I know is that I felt a little better after that. He then said his goodbyes and told me he would call Nene and Frank. Bright arrived afterwards and he sat at the chair near my bed.

"How are you feeling?" He asks me. "I am pretty much alright. The doctor said that I could get discharged tomorrow but I have to stay at home for about a week." I answered.

"That's not what I am talking about Win." He said looking straight into my eyes. "Ohh..." I couldn't exactly seem to know what to answer. "I guess we are brothers now huh. " I tell him and he smiled weakly.

"I know this has been shock to you and also to us all. But I am glad that you are okay now. It's all that matters to me Win." He said while cupping my face with both of his hands.

I close my eyes and let myself linger on feeling the warmth of his hands. Bright,  how am I supposed to get over you when you are like this? How will I learn to stop loving you?

I know he genuinely cares for me and loves me like a brother but I couldn't help but feel these things. If there is a manual on how to control one's feelings I would gladly buy the whole volume even if it means sacrificing my allowance for the whole sem.

I placed my hands on his for a moment holding them. Afterwards I pulled them down and let go of them. "It's alright Bright, I know we have a lot of things to discuss with our parents. I know things are bound to change but we just can't help it cant we?" I said while looking at him in the eyes. However I could see that there is a trace of sadness on his eyes.

"It doesn't have to change Win! Nothing does! You have always been a brother to both me and Frank. That is much truer now." He said with such determination in his eyes that should've comforted me but it didn't.

"Yeah I guess I have always been like a brother to you and Frank. Nothing has changed that." I smiled weakly and it seemed to brighten up his mood and that gave me comfort also seeing him smile.

We then talked about his... I mean our father. I know nothing much about him so I could only listen to Bright as he enthusiastically tell me about Mr. Mario. When Nene and Frank came back they brought food for dinner together with Mom.

Apparently I could now eat regular food and Mom cooked lots for us and strangly Mr. Klorn and Mr. Mario where the ones who brought them inside. Docile if I may add. Well It is of generous amount considering me, Frank and Nene are Big eaters.

Apparently Mr. Mario also eats big just like the three of us. Did I perhaps got my appetite from him? Dinner was peaceful and we even made small talk.

Mom and Mr. Klorn talked about the bakeshop and Mr. Mario told us he would be taking a break from work. Frank was extremely happy about it and I could only smile seeing him.

I wish he would always be like this even if it would seem illogical. I know one day he'll get hurt but I dont want him to. I have always been a brother to him and Bright. Nothing could changed that. Nothing could ever will.
