Chapter 101 - 101: Trouble

The sound of the heels chimed on the cement floor as Daniella walked towards the door of Claire's house. She pushed the door opened and found her friends in the living room along with a face she hadn't seen for months.

Sebastian, Robert's younger brother.

Since they were kids Daniella had noticed the difference between Robert and Sebastian, the latter had always played with her toys and tied up her hair. Even his movement was soft and feminine.

Sebastian grew up hiding his identity, only Daniella and Danny knew about it and they kept it for him and his family.

But after Robert was framed for his father's death and Sebastian lived with their relative, the man came out of his closet and became who he is right now.

He had his hair cut simple yet modern. It was a comb- over with a side parting that had a very slick finish to it, almost with no layers at all and it was the color of golden sun.

Even his style changed, he was wearing a tight polo shirt and jeans.

Though his face and the smile he had after seeing her was the same.

"Dan-Dan " Sebastian called out the name which only been used by her twin brother.

The man ran towards her, both hands were stretched to embrace her.

When Sebastian halted in front of her, his hand gripped her wrist and dragged her upstairs.

"Lay down " he ordered her as they reached the room.

Daniella rolled her eyes and obediently did what he asked for.

"Spread your legs " he ordered once again.

Daniella sighed, she removed her underwear and spread her legs and by that time Claire had entered the room , taken a syringe and was standing beside the bed.

After Sebastian got his bachelor's degree last year, he had become her gynecologist. He was still studying and would take another 8 years before he can get his license but his experience working as an assistant to a gynecologist helped him a lot about the field. Now he had Daniella as his first patient even though he hadn't gotten his license.

Apart from what he had learned, Daniella also taught him a lot.

While he was busy taking samples on Daniella's genital, Claire on the other side was also taking her blood.

"So how was your first experience?" he asked with a teasing voice, preparing her for a pelvic examination.

"If I knew that s*x would be as good as that , I would have done it the first time I met Evan " Daniella sneered.

Sebastian laughed at her reply "I am happy for you and I am glad he taught you how to properly spread your legs " he said putting his gloves on.

Claire noticed the blush on Daniella's cheeks , even the twinkle of her eyes was different than before.

"So what did you find out?" Claire asked, pinning the needle on Daniella's nerve.

"Ouch!" Daniella groaned and looked at her arm, she watched as her blood filled the tube and endured the pain.

"Later, I need to speak to everyone about this " Daniella's head started to feel heavy that it fell on the soft pillow.

When everything was done. The three left the bedroom and proceeded downstairs where Scott, Robert and Irene were waiting.

Daniella rarely called everyone to gather but when she did it meant she had some important thing to say.

She sat on the armchair of the single sofa where Robert was sitting, opposite of them was Irene who was still in her police blue uniform with both legs on the coffee table while Scott was standing behind Irene and Claire and Sebastian were seated on the long couch far away from Robert.

Daniella knew very well that putting Sebastian and Robert in one room meant disaster. Robert hated the fact that Sebastian was gay and that he married a man and even adopted a kid while Sebastian had kept his distance from his brother by living abroad.

Piercing glares were thrown to Sebastian by his brother Robert but he didn't mind it , Robert had been like this since he left the prison.

Robert raised his head as he turned to Daniella, he placed an arm on her lap and waggled his brows.

"Why are we here Daniella?, Including that fag?" said Robert with an insult, pointing his lips at Sebastian.

Wrinkling her nose in annoyance, Daniella tugged Robert's ear repeatedly.

"Stop it, Robert! Be thankful you have a brother!" she yelled into his ear.

Robert rolled his eyes; his legs stretched and lay on the coffee table. When his shoes accidentally touched the tip of Irene's shoes; the woman kicked his legs off the table and gave him a killer glare.

Irritated, Robert clicked his tongue and crossed his arms over his chest.

"What are you doing here Ms. Corrupt?" Robert asked Irene.

Irene rose a brow, her lips formed a lopsided grin "I don't know Mr. Thief, don't you have anyone that you can rob today?" she insulted back.

Daniella rolled her eyes, Robert and Irene had been like this since the beginning, and she wasn't sure if there would ever be an ending to their childish fight.

"What is wrong with you Robert?" Sebastian said, entering the arguments.

"What do you mean what's wrong with me Scott?" Robert fought back.

"Why do you keep picking a fight!" Scott moved forward, both hands at his sides balled into fists.

"Why? Do you want to fight me?" Robert got up, walked closer to Scott with his face reddening in anger .

Scott sneered as a response, he rolled the sleeve of his suit and stiffened his shoulders "Really Robert? As I recall during our last fight you had your nose broken. Want me to knock you out again?"

"You asshole!" Robert suddenly yelled; his fist lifted in the air to throw a punch at Scott but the latter's reflexes were so quick that he was able to dodge it swiftly.

Scott took a step back; he threw a punch at Robert and his fist landed on his cheeks.

Blood dripped from the side of Robert's lips, he wiped it with his backhand and punched Scott back on his stomach.

(!) Scott's body moved backward as he felt Robert's hard fist on his stomach. He composed his body to fight back but before he could, Robert had thrown another punch at him and it landed on his jaw.

Losing his balance, Scott's body slumped on the shelve by the wall and all the figurines fell onto the ground.

"Oh my god!" Claire exclaimed and rushed towards the broken angels' figurines which she got from Daniella.

"Stop it you two!" Claire yelled at Robert and Scott but the two kept on throwing punches at each other that both of their faces were now tainted with their own blood.

"Daniella help me out here!" Claire turned to Daniella who was busy tapping on the screen of her phone.

"Let them fight Claire. Just give them the bill and vacuum. If they don't pay, we will crush their balls" Daniella replied still looking at the phone in her hands.

"Daniella!" this time Claire yelled at her.

Daniella blew out her cheeks as she put the phone in her pocket and got up.

"Guys! I found my mother's killer!" she shouted, causing everyone including Scott and Robert to stop and listen to her.

"Evan's mother killed my mom. That's the reason why I gathered everyone here " her chest rose and fell with rapid breaths "and I promised to Evan that I won't kill her " she continued.

"But you are not a killer Daniella " Scott stated, he got up and later offer a hand to Robert which the man didn't refuse "You don't kill people."

She gave a mirthless laugh in response "I know. I torture people so I need everyone's help to make my plan work."

Rubbing her hands on her thigh with excitement, she asked everyone to sit down.

When everyone was settled, Daniella's eyes gloom with guilt by the secret that she had kept from them.

"But first. There's something I need to tell everyone about Evan" she bit her lips so tight that it became pale.

She held her breath for as long as she could and then spoke "I can't read Evan's mind. I can't see his past."

She heard gasps coming from her friend's lips, she gave a bitter laugh and continued "I can only see his past and thoughts when we kiss and somehow but he can also see mine."
