Ezekiel was driving the car and I still had so many questions in my mind but he said I have to wait till my birthday so I decided I will. He finally dropped me at front of my house. Before leaving he said "Now I will always be around you and protect you no matter what". "I can protect myself, I don't need anyone's protection" I replied with a sarcastic smile. "You are finally home dear, come have some cookies, I know you love them" Mom said. Right now i really wanted to eat a poison and die in some corner but she made those cookies with love for me. I sat down and was about to eat. "Lini, Did anything weird happen to you these days?" She asked. I was taken aback by this question. What did she mean by that? Did she know something? Was she also hiding something from like others? With wide eyes I asked "what do you mean by that, Mom?". "Nothing, I mean you are going to turn 18 next week so I thought you must be going through a lot of CHANGES as you look worried and tired all the times" She replied with a heartwarming smile. Maybe I am thinking so much, maybe she asked this genuinely. "Nothing much mom. It's just school as they give us a lot of homework, that's why I am tired". I ate the cookie. "Good night, sweetie" she said. "Good night, mom" I said and went to my room.

I closed the room and was lying on my bed. Suddenly a call came from an unknown number. I picked it up and said "hello, who's this?". "Hey babygirl" a voice came and I was definitely sure it was Ezekiel but he sounded different. The voice was same but it was not familiar at all. "Ezekiel, where did you get my number?" "Woah. Hold on there babygirl. Why are you calling me by my brother's name?". WAIT! WHAT?!!! BROTHER!!!!. "Why are you silent babygirl? I think you are disappointed!! Isn't it?!. I was not disappointed, I was shocked. Brother.... Like seriously?! But I was not going to buy it. NOT AT ALL. "Ezekiel, stop joking around. I am already tensed. Do you think this is a kind of time to joke around?!". He laughed like a lunatic and said "Hazzzzze, I may sound like brother or I may LOOK like my brother but trust my babygirl, I am not HIM!! My name is Mikhael Denzell " MIKHAEL!!!! WHAT THE HELL IS HAPPENING AROUND ME?! "Babygirl, I am downstairs and I am here to meet you. I've been waiting you for a long time. Won't you meet me?" I was so much shocked at this moment. I just cut the call at that moment. Suddenly my mom called me "sweetie, someone named Mikhael is here to meet you, he's waiting for you outside, come here!" And that's when I lost my mind. I ran downstairs and went outside and there he was standing against the car with a devilish smirk. He looked just like Ezekiel but instead of brown hair he had dark black curly hair and hazel eyes. But i could just tell with a look that they were 2 poles apart from each other in every respect. He was wearing jeans and a black T-shirt and he was looking totally amazing. I couldn't take my eyes off of him because i was trying to look for Ezekiel in him but no he wasn't there. He definitely wasn't Ezekiel. WHO ARE YOU?!!! WHO WAS HE?! It was strange that I could differentiate between them, although i met Ezekiel only twice. TWICE!!!! GOSH!! He started to walk towards me and said to me with a smirk "Babygirl, I think you fell in love with me at first sight" I snapped out of the moment and said "You wish! I don't care whether you are Ezekiel or his brother. Just get out of here". "Woah, easy babygirl. Is this the way to talk to your savior?!! He said. Savior! What?! Why does everyone think that I need some kind of protection and that I am so fragile that I will break into pieces if someone touches me? First it was my aunt and now these two guys."I don't need your PROTECTION. Just get lost and tell your brother to do the same!" I was about to go back in my house, he suddenly grabbed my hand and pulled me closer towards him. There was some darkness in his eyes and I could feel that. He was about to kiss me.

"STOP!!!" It was Ezekiel. He seemed to be angry. "Brother, what a not so pleasant surprise?!" Mikhael said with a smirk. "What the hell are you doing here?!" Ezekiel said. "I am here for the same thing that you are" Mikhael said and looked at me with a glare. I felt uneasy. Ezekiel walked towards us and took me aways from Mikhael. "Hazeline, get back into your house right now" Ezekiel said. At the same time I saw something. The colour of his eyes. It.... CHANGED...... From Light green it changed to DARK GREEN! He looked really angry! "Brother, there's no need to get angry over this. See I am leaving" Mikhael said this to his brother. "Astalavista babygirl, we will meet soon" He winked and said this with a smirk. After that he left in his car. "Listen, don't talk to him again. He's not trustworthy. You can't trust him" he said. "Don't tell me what to do. I am enough mature to take my own decisions. I am not a kid. And on top of that what makes YOU trustworthy? Why should I trust anyone among you? Why? Just let me be. Leave me alone. Get out of my life. I only met you twice and you already are trying to make my life a living hell. I don't want to talk to you right now. Just leave." I just lashed out on him. "Just go inside and take care of yourself" he said and left.

I went back into my room. Now things were getting out of my hand and i wasn't able to cope up with all this.
Suddenly a call came and it was Lisa. "Hazel, you know what? Dimitri was calling and he told me a hot rumour! Do you wanna know?" I was in no mood to listen about this shit. "Lisa, I wanna sleep. I am tired. Let's talk about it tomorrow" I said. "Come on just listen. You know that new hot guy in our class? Guess what?! He has a twin brother who's gonna join our school tomorrow! Isn't that exotic?!" She said. "I thought you weren't interested in him, Liz!" "I am not interested in him Hazel but I do wanna see his brother. If he's this much hot, I wonder how much his brother will be?" She said again. I knew how his brother looked but I couldn't tell her. There was so much going on. "Ok Lisa, I am not interested in any of them. So let's just cut this short. Bye see you. Take care", without hearing her reply I disconnected the call.

Next day I went to school and I was sitting in my class. Ezekiel was also there but I decided to ignore him. I was looking out of the window and I noticed that black apple became big. I don't know why I wanted to see that apple closely but than I remembered Ezekiel's warning and decided to stay away from it. "Hello students, how are you?" Ms. Georgia came in the class and today she was behaving extra sweetly. Plus she didn't attack me as always. "Pretty good mam" our class representative replied. "So today I am going to introduce you a new boy in the class. Please welcome Mr. Mikhael Denzell". Mikhael walked in and everyone was shocked except me, Ezekiel and Lisa. Though Lisa was instantly impressed by him as she was literally blushing. "This is Mr. Ezekiel's brother and he will be studying with you guys from now on. Mr. Mikhael you can sit with your brother" Ms. Georgia said. I can see that Ezekiel wanted to stay away from him. What the hell was going on between these two brothers. They seemed to be enemies more. I wasn't thrilled at all. Mikhael, as always, smirked and said "No, I don't want to sit with this douche bag, I would rather prefer my Babygirl". He came to my side and pulled my seat towards his seat and EVERYONE IN THE WHOLE CLASS WAS SURPRISED. "You are my babygirl, aren't you?!' He said and kissed me on CHEEKS. I was still processing what just happened. Ezekiel lost his cool and punched his brother in front of the whole class...

And i was like WHAT THE HELL?!!..........
