After I drank I first went through the living room when I saw the light on there. I caught up with my older brother in the living room facing the laptop, busy and with something to work on.
He looked at me when he saw me pass by. "Why are you still awake, Reign?"
"I'm thirsty, 'then they called me Shantal," I replied.
I walked over to him to see what he was doing. "Are you busy, brother?"
"Yes, a little. Bullet is passing me documents," he said.
I almost forgot, they also work for the company owned by Bullet.
Kuya Max and Bullet are business partners, they both run their own companies.
"Keep it up, brother. You might look so tired," I said.
He glared at me. "Me? Ugly? That thing is unlikely to happen."
"The thickness of your face really, brother, you're not as thick," I said, shaking.
He was about to speak when suddenly the doorbell rang. I immediately went to the door and went out.
I opened the gate and saw a box in front of our house. Nobody, so who put it here?
If it's a bomb, I can defuse it so no worries.
I carried the box into the house and laid it on the table. My older brother turned to the thing I was carrying.
"What is this thing? Who gave it to you?" he asked in surprise.
I shrugged my shoulders because I have no idea as well. "There was no one when I opened the gate so I don't know who it was from."
He chuckled. "When it's a bomb, you know. Just defuse it."
I stared at him before examining the box. I saw blood stains on the cover so I wrinkled my forehead.
Blood?I'm sure from what I can see, I know there is blood on the cover so suddenly a shiver rises in my chest.
Not afraid of bombs, but afraid of blood, what the hell, Maxreign?
"Blood stains, I'm very sure it's a death threat. For me maybe that's it," his older brother said laughing before snatching the box from me.
I sat next to him and waited for him to open the mysterious object in front of us.
He saw a letter on the side so he opened it.
"For Maxreign Ezriel. This is for you, Reign." Suddenly his older brother's voice weakened.
I knew he was worried for me, I just took the box from his hand and I opened it myself.
A handkerchief full of blood immediately opened up to me. There is also a letter inside so I burst it open. Children's minds.
I read the letter out loud that was written in blood.
I'll give you two months to stay alive, Maxreign. Until you tell us where the chip is, we won't give you a peaceful life.
You'll start counting for your nightmares.
I pouted my lips. "It's corny, just two months? Isn't it going to take longer?"
My older brother punched me hard. "Whenever you really are! This is a very serious situation, Maxreign. It's not a joke!"
I ruffled my hair in annoyance. "Hey, why are you just calm when you have something like this? When I am, it's forbidden to calm down?" I asked a frustrating question.
"You're different from me, Maxreign. I'm a public figure and I can handle myself, but you, I'm not with you every day. It's as if I'm going to die now for worrying about you, but you're just calm?" annoyed he said.
I pouted my lips.
"Brother, there's nothing we can do if I stay in a panic. They'll only see more reason to scare me, can't they? I can also fight brother, daddy trained me well and I can handle myself," I explained to him. .
He leaned back on the sofa and took a deep breath.
"They're attacking you, I don't get it. How did they know you had that chip?" he whispered.
"Even you, you don't know where I keep that chip, brother. Mom and dad don't know about it either, so I don't know how they heard it was in my hand," I added calmly. .
"What are we going to do now? Shall I tell daddy?" he asked me.
I quickly turned to him and shook violently. "No, brother! Don't tell them! I'll tell them."
"Okay, I respect your decision. But I have to ask for Bullet's help, he has many well -known bodyguards who work well. Maybe I can hire those bodyguards for you," he said.
I could have done nothing but nod. I know my older brother will still insist on what he wants even if I don't want to, he just wants to make sure that I'm safe and I am thankful that I have a brother like him.
I know I can take care and protect myself, but I can't protect myself from snipers and guns if I don't have a weapon like that.
I bit my lower lip while trying to figure out if I should change the position where the chip is hiding. But I still stick to my plan, safest to hide the chip where he is now.
I was about to stand up when my older brother suddenly spoke.
"Maxreign," he called my name.
"Why?" I asked him.
"These past few days, I've noticed that you seem to be unfamiliar with Bullet. I mean, yes, you're still attached to him but not like before. Is there something wrong?" he asked me.
I was swallowed.
"W-No, brother."
"Are you sure? Are you losing interest in him?" he added.
I shook quickly. "No, brother! He is still my ultimate crush and no one can change that. B-Why are your questions like that?"
He chuckled. "Nothing, I seem to notice that you don't act like you used to, I was just worried that you lost interest in him."
"You told me back then not to attack him like that, you said it was a desperate move. I followed you, brother, why are you worried?" natatawang saad ko.
"It's not like that. I don't want to see you get so close to Bullet. But I like him for you, so I'm scared that maybe you lost interest in him. He's the guy I want for you, because I haven't met him yet. My boss has a girlfriend. I know he can take good care of you, "he said with a smile.
Something touched my heart because of what my older brother said. He wants Bullet for me because he knows he can take care of me, like how older Max can.
"Before I can find a woman I will love, I first want to be confident that you can find a man who will love you like I do. I want you and Bullet to end up together, because I am comfortable with him and I trust him," he continued.
I giggle. "So can I date him?"
"No," he replied firmly.
My face wrinkled. "What? But why ?!"
"You're not a graduate yet, Max. I don't want you to get into a relationship until you've finished college. Don't you ever date Bullet, I know how wicked your mind is. You like to explore, and Bullet is a guy, like me. You might even seduce my boss, "he said with a bad look.
Can't believe I hit him.
"I'm really going to do that? Hey brother! I'm kind, no!" I said.
"Still, I trust Bullet but I don't trust you. I'm telling you Reign, when I really find out that you're dating Bullet, I'll take you away from him," he added with finality in his voice.
"I thought you wanted us to stay together?" I can answer the question.
"I want to, but if you disobey right now. It's unlikely you'll disobey after a while, just follow me. It's forbidden."
