-Ashley-

"Austin, I can't believe you're here with us. It feels like a dream." I hold my brother's hand and hugged him tightly. 

He smiled gently, as a reply. Austin's eye seemed so empty. 

It's been a month since Austin finally came here. Now he will live with us forever. Lately, he's been spacing out after he regained his memory. He preferred to be alone and writing something in his diary.

I don't know whether if it's a good thing, or not. I tried to ask him about it, but he always avoided the topic. So, I felt like I should stop asking him to talk about it.

But seeing him like this, make me think about his life before. I mean, I couldn't stop thinking about his past.

Was he loved? Was he living a good life before? Who's his friends, and his lover, perhaps?

Ashley sighed mentally before she murmured mentally.

Now that I think about it, we never really know why Austin involved in a car crash? I know that Enrique said that the hospital claimed it was an accident, and I believed him since Enrique is the one who found him.

But, I couldn't help but wonder.

"Hey, why are you spacing out?" Austin asked imitating me who always asked the same thing when he spaced out.

I chuckled before pinching his nose. He laughed before he asked a question.

"How do you both met Grandpa?"

"We went to visit Grandma's cemetery, and that's when we saw an old man crying over her tombstone. So mum asked the old man, why he cried so hard over Grandma's tombstone. And, that's when he hugged the two of us. Mum slapped him hard because she thought he's a pervert." I stopped after Austin laughed so hard.

"Sorry it was funny. I can imagine that already." Austin giggles. 

I smiled before continued,

"At first, grandpa said that he's a close friend to our Grandma, and he wants to treat us to dinner. But we declined it, of course. The second day, he came to our small broke apartment and said that I'm his granddaughter, and mum is his biological daughter. Of course, mum couldn't believe it. Still, she believes after grandpa showed her the DNA result from mum's hair, he managed to take it while hugging mum, plus a picture of him with our Grandma when they're still young. You're a carbon copy of grandpa." I smiled.

"Although we just met him yet, it feels like a dream after that because grandpa been showering us with so much love. We managed to stay at the mansion, eat good food, and only designed new clothes for me. It's a limited edition. Saying that it was a limited edition is a bit funny because there's no way people will have it as it only designed for Haydn."

Austin smiled gently before he was spacing out again. 

Damn, I shouldn't brag about my life. 

"But everything means nothing because you are not here with us. It's sad because mum wasn't here with us." I said sadly.

I don't know why, but it seemed that Austin's expression darkened.

Suddenly, grandpa interrupted us. 

"Now that I'm here, I'm not going to let anyone hurt both of you. Everything I have is yours. All you need to do is to live, find a good partner, and be good," Grandpa said it with a calm tone.
