"You're kidding me. " Joey said in disbelief with his wide gape plastered in his face while his cousin remains expressionless along with the lines of do I look like I'm kidding.

"What stuff?" You asked in the middle of their conversation since you were shock that the apartment you are currently staying at was Joey's former room and so you can't help but to be curious of what secret things they are talking about.

You noticed Joey instantly panicked after hearing your question, you immediately understood why since he himself called it a 'secret'.

"Ummm..." Takeru started, he was as if going to answer on Joey's behalf since his cousin (Joey) seemed to have turned into rock due to unknown reason. "Well, you don't need to know. It has reasons why its called a secret." Takeru monotonously answered then released a mischievous smirk that took back Joey in his own thoughts. "Right, Joey?"

"Y-yes, you don't need to know..." Joey gulped down and looked at you, "really." He meekly seconded making you creased your brows at the oddness Joey just displayed.

"O-okay?" You answered sounding not so sure since you're now really, really, really curious of the things he left in your current apartment. "You suddenly got me really curious now you know..." You said as you raised your hand and pointed at the said apartment. "So...I guess...I'm going to check it out myself..." You once again trailed and then just abruptly ran towards your room startling both Joey and Takeru.

The thought has probably got onto Joey that he immediately rushed to chase you. "Oh no, you can't stop me!" You yelled as you're finally in front of your door searching the key in your bag.

"Oh no, you're not going in!" He answered as you feel the sudden eagerness to find your keys but then it turns out you lost it?

You widens your eyes in panic. "No! this can't be!" You exclaimed taking all your things out of your bag. "Don't tell me I lost it. Don't tell me I lost it." You started chanting as Joey arrived in front of you. "Noooo!"

"What is suddenly wrong with you?" Joey as he noticed the change of your aura.

"I-I lost my keys..." You trailed as Joey slowly plastered a beaming smile.

"Oh yes! You can't go inside!" He exclaimed in victory.

"Oh yes, she can." Takeru who was walking in his way to them casually answered. "Did you forget? We actually have spare keys in every room here." He deadpanned.
