"Caden!" A woman came in after the door was opened.

"Hello, sis," I greeted Bianca who rushed to sit by my side.

"Oh, Caden! Do you know how frightened I was when I heard about you getting kidnap?" she talked as tears flowing from the edge of her eye.

"I'm sorry. I made you worried," I try to wipe them.

"I asked brother Al if I could come along to see you. Are you okay now?"

"Yes I'm fine," I assure her.

"Thank goodness," she hugged me.

"Hello, Caden. I bring some medicines for you," Albert greeted me with the warmest smile on his face.

"If it's not because brother Al, I can't imagine how late it would be to save you," Bianca whipping her tear of relief.

No, shit! "Thank you, big brother Al," I replied, giving a fake smile.

The tips of his lips are twitching and I know he tries to hold his grind or laugh.

"Bianca, can you help bring some water? It's already empty," Albert suddenly said as he pointed to the empty glass beside my bed.

"Sure," Bianca answered as it's only natural. He could ask the servant. "Go talk with brother, Caden," Bianca smiled at me before she left the room. 

I smiled back and make sure she was away.

"What is this scheming that you are playing right now?" I show him my displeased look.

"You told me to meet you normally, so here I am," Kean answered lightly as he sat in the chair on the side of the bed.

"You are insane," I utter my remarks

"Well if you just wait silently, you wouldn't get beaten that badly," Kean argues. "Then you can use your energy to walk further and be found faster."

"Yep, I just meet a lunatic."

Kean just giggled, didn't find my words insulting. "Here let me help fix your leg," he suddenly said while putting his hand is on my right leg. In an instant, I feel warmth surrounding it.

It just lasts for a few seconds but when he finished, I don't even feel a single ache from my leg again. "That's better," he said. 

"You can..." I was surprised.

"Yup, the only 'power' I could do, even though the effect is limited. Ah, can you...?"

I quickly shook my head before he finished his sentence, unconsciously lied, and he gave a sighed.

"I really hope you could do magic or any power. I've tried it for so long and can only do that much of healing," he explained. "Well, it's not like we can predict where we end up."

I look at him suspiciously. "What do you want from me, Kean?" I asked again.

"I wonder what I want..."

"Can you stop with your wordplay? It's getting old," I whined.

He only smiled. Then, he leaned forward and whispered to my ear, "I'll tell you when I finished formalizing my plan, brother," and kissed my cheek.

As if he knew someone was coming, he stood up before I heard knocks on the door. I haven't even able to construct more questions for him. The door pushed open and Darren walked in.

"I hear your siblings have come," Darren said as he walked and sat beside me. Albert gave the room for Darren.

"Darren, meet my older brother, Albert," I introduce him out of courtesy.
