Chapter 482 - Four Hundred And Eighty-two: Brave Boy Allen (2/2)

Meanwhile, unknown to Neon, Allen's eyes popped open as soon as he left. Call it weird but the boy hadn't been able to sleep ever since his twin sister left the room. It was quite irritating, he had thought with Ailee gone, his life would be comfortable, but it seemed the reverse was the case.

Allen didn't need to guess twice about Neon's whereabouts, he knew instinctively he had snuck into his sister's room - the both were inseparable.

”Ahh!!” Allen kicked the air vexed. Everything he had done so far, none of them seemed to work. But wait a minute.....An evil smirk suddenly curved Allen's features, this was a perfect opportunity to break them up once and for all. Neon would get into trouble if he reported him to his parents for sneaking into Ailee's room. Mwahaha.

And with that determination, Allen climbed out of bed and went up the stairs leading to his parent's quarters. The boy was just about to knock on the door when he heard whimpers. Huh? Is his mother in pain?

”Mom?” he banged on the door, ”Mom, it's me, Allen,”

”Allen?” Was her mom's response from behind the closed door, ”What do you want, son?” her voice was hurried, almost as if she was panting or something.

”Mom, are you alright?” he glued his ear to the door, ”Is dad with you?”

”Fuck! Yes... Oh God... No!” his mother screamed.

Allen's brow furrowed in confusion, his mother wasn't making any sense. Something seems to be wrong with her.

”Mom, are you sure you're okay?” there was a trace of panic in his tone, ”Is daddy with you? Does he know you're in pain?” Allen was worried.

”Allen son!” She gasped, ”No, you don't have to worry about me... aah! Your daddy and I....” she took a mouthful of air, ”He's helping me with some exercise, baby... Don't worry, I'll see you tomorrow.... aah!.... Fuck!... Just go to bed...My God, Niklaus!”

Allen heard his mother scream once again, and this time, his father's groan joined hers. He was so hurried by the guttural sound that he took a step away from the door.

”This exercise must be quite tough,” Allen wondered as he returned to where he came from. But he realized his plan was an epic failure. Who was going to punish Neon and Ailee now?

He went back to bed, hoping to come up with another plan the next morning; he would think better with a little sleep. But when Allen closed his eyes, sleep didn't come. Compared to earlier when Neon was with him, the room was eerily quiet.

”You're a brave boy, Allen. You're not afraid of make-believe monsters used to chase weak kids to bed. You're Allen Spencer, the toughest kid out there. A little darkness can't scare you,” He said to himself.

And yes, that seemed to work, until he heard a strange creaking and the next, Allen bolted from his bed and sped like the Flash into Ailee's room as if the devil were on his heels.

”What the -?! ” Ailee was yet to curse when Allen hopped onto her bed and joined the party.
