317-The Brothers Meet Again.

Beatrice Dismay:

Helel and I broke the kiss once Akin barged in on us. He was shocked for a few seconds, but then he rushed over and hugged his brother. The two met as if they were the only people in the world at the moment. I had left them to talk for a few minutes while I prepared tea for them in the kitchen.

I could tell Akin was still shocked that Helel had come back to life. Akin left Helel on the couch and followed me to the kitchen to probably have a word with me.

'I will tell Maddox and Zane later," Akin said, grabbing the mugs to clean them and help me.

'How is he?" I asked, trying to know from Akin if Helel sounded different to him. He hadn't shown any different attitude till now, but it was Ace's words in the back of my mind that were making me notice him too much.

'He is probably wondering where his protein shake is," Akin joked, but then cleared his throat to say, "so, you two—are now a thing?”

I didn't really realize he would ask about the kiss he saw us sharing.

’Anyway, where is Jessie?" Akin stole his eyes from me when he changed the subject. I felt bad because I could tell he was trying not to wait for my answer because he thought it would hurt him.

’She left a few hours ago and hadn't returned till now," I said.

"I will give her a cal— oh wait! Zane is calling me," Akin stepped to the side, too excited to give his brothers the good news, but his facial expressions suggested the news they gave him was heartbreaking.
