Chapter 2: Piss here, and I am your father (1/2)
In the dining hall was sitting a group of three people. A girl, a boy, and a beautiful middle-aged woman. The woman looked in her late twenties, with black hair and big blue eyes. All in all, she was an extremely beautiful lady.
[Note: I said she looked in her late twenties but I never said, that was her age.]
”Mom, I think I am full.” The boy said depressingly.
”What full, you didn't even eat properly,” chided the woman and passed the plate filled with rice. ”Here, finish it.”
”Mom, I am not a beast,” Kadyn pleaded. ”I also need to go to the shop.”
Kadyn eyed his sister, hoping for help, but the girl ignored him and continued to eat her rice, head down. However, he saw a small grin curling over her lips.
”No, you aren't going anywhere today!” the woman squeaked in a firm voice, and her eyes became wet. ”Have you ever thought about what I would do if something happened to you? It was your luck that there was an angler near you, or I wouldn't even have your…”
The woman fell silent, and tears rolled down her cheeks. Kadyn looked at her face and remained quiet. He wanted to stay but his arse was on fire this entire time, because of the ”Ding” he heard recently.
He looked at his mother's teary face and sighed, then said nothing about going to the shop. It was already noon. He still had over twenty-two hours. However, he wanted to go to the shop as soon as possible and do the damn thing that voice had asked him to do.
Though he didn't know what shit that sound was, because he heard no voice the second time, nor would it reply to his questions. But there was a sound echoing in his head—tick, tick, tick, as if trying to say. 'Do not relax your butt.'
It was better to complete the task as soon as possible. He didn't want to take any chance. Who knows when this tick-tick would stop and blast his arse?
”Alright, mom, I won't go to the shop today,” though reluctantly, he said in the end. ”I am full, I will go rest.” He went upstairs to his room when he saw his mother's nod.
”Brother is acting weird.” Elora, who sat silent all this time, spoke. ”He never liked to go to the shop. Why is he insisting so much today?”
”Isn't it a good thing?” said Salona. ”Your brother is becoming responsible, this incidence must have made him realise his responsibilities.”
Elora rolled her eyes at her mother's word. Though she also thought little about it, as long as her brother was happy.

Kadyn gaped at the small bed, a table, a chair, and a mirror on the wall as he fell on the soft bed. Though not as comfortable as his bed from the earth. It wasn't too bad either. He closed his eyes as drowsiness took over his consciousness, dragging him into a world of dreams, but there was no dream, only darkness, and he couldn't ask for anything better.
He woke up when it was dinner time, and after having the food, he again fell asleep. Not knowing what was happening, but he felt tired and drowsy.
”Brother!”
”Who is shouting…” he murmured and changed his posture.
”Brother!”
”Damn it!” he growled but didn't open his eyes.
”BROTHER!!!”
”The heck!”
Kadyn sprang in shock and blinked around in confusion. His eyes felt heavy, and his head ached as fuck. Only when he messaged his two blurry eye-balls and adjusted his sight, he realised the shout had come from the door.
”Damn headache!” he winced and cursed but couldn't do anything else.
”Bang!”
Someone banged on his door. ”Brother!”
”Coming!” he said, and opened the door, and peered out with his swollen eyes.
”Aren't you going to the shop?” Elora said. ”Weren't you keen yesterday?”
Kadyn blinked his eyes at first, trying to process her words inside his head. Then all the drowsiness vanished. His eyes widened as if they would bulge out of their sockets. ”Shit!”
”Bang!”
