"Are you okay now?" Fourth asked Fah when she came out from her bedroom all fresh and ready to go.

"Much better.. Thanks to you and Gemini.." She smiled at them.

"Do you want us to take you to your sister's house?" Fourth asked her again.

"No.. It's okay.. She'll pick me up... Maybe in ten minutes.. She's already on the way.." She said.

Fourth nodded and approached her. "Call me when you arrive there.."

Fah gave him her beautiful smile. "Yes..Sir.."

Gemini was secretly rolled his eyes. Then he told Fourth to hurry up.

"Ok we'll go now.." Fourth said. Gemini just nodded his head and he walked outside first leaving Fourth behind.

In the elevator, Gemini kept shuting his mouth. Fourth noticed it and he opened the conversation first.

"Our class is at noon today, do you wanna stay with me or go home? You have one more task from me, right? Did you do it?" He asked.

"I think I wanna go home now after I take you home.." Gemini replied.

"Ok.." Fourth said.

On the ride home, they didn't talk much. They just enjoyed the ride with the music on. After Gemini dripped Fourth, he left directly and Fourth went to his room alone.

But suddenly there's someone called him when he was about to opened his door.

"Fourth..."

Fourth turned his head. There was only one person who called him like that. And he was right. His cousin was there.

"Phi Earth...when did you come?" Fourth asked him.

"Yesterday.. I came here last night but you weren't here.. Where have you been?" Earth asked.

Fourth didn't answer him yet, he opened his door and they came inside together.

"I was with my friend.. She need help so I just accompanied her.." Fourth answered him.

"Her? Who?"

"Hmm....Do you remember my friend when I studied in England? Fah?" Fourth asked him while he putting his bag and his jacket on the table.

"Kind of... Your ex? She's here?" Earth asked again.

"Yeah.. She live here now..... Mix didn't tag along?"

"No.. I just want to meet you alone..." Earth stared at Fourth deeply.

"What is it Phi? Something serious?" Fourth was curious now.

"You were just with Fah?" Earth glanced at him.

"Uhm..no...with my other friend.." Fourth couldn't meet his cousin's eyes. He sensed that Earth knew something.

"Was it that boy?" Earth asked.

"Huh?" Fourth was confused.

"The one who dropped you.. Was it him?" Earth still stared at him.

Fourth gulped. Fourth bite his lips. He was nervous now. But he nodded.

"Yes.."

"Fourth-"

"I'm sorry Phi... I just can't help my self.. I know I shouldn't be like this.. But you know exactly how my heart is..." Fourth sat down on the couch.

Earth sighed. "Fourth.. You tried so hard to be out of all these... You said it yourself that you didn't want to be related with that family.. Now what? You are mingling with their son... Your suppose to be younger brother.. " Earth sat beside him.
