"Morning my baby. Now go and brush your teeth fast. Otherwise the food will get cold." Veronica said as Reuben nodded like an obedient child and rushed towards the washroom..

Quickly washing his face, Reuben sat on the bed again as the couple had their breakfast with peace while talking and laughing together about random stuffs..

When they were almost done with the breakfast, Reuben asked, "Honey.. I know I shouldn't start with this topic right now..

But still I want you to know that whenever you decide on taking revenge over Mr. Porter Brown, I'll be by your side on your every steps. Just keep your mind calm and have trust on me.."

Veronica chuckled and said, "I know baby.. The amount of trust I have for you, can't even be compared to the trust I have on myself..

And about punishing Mr. Brown, I'll decide about him later as I don't want to make my mood worse right now. Moreover, how much I try to ignore the fact, I still somehow feel that Alonzo is still in fault in all these matter...

I know I also had hidden my identity but I never betrayed anyone.

But both of the brothers specially Alonzo just played with my friendship brutally...Though I feel pity for him, but still I can't forget his betrayal as it kept me reminding the past which is leading me to hate him very very much.."

Reuben understood her sorrow and tried to diverse the conversation, "Honey, I don't care how much you hate others but I know that you love me the most and I love you too with everything of my life."

Veronica laughed at him and said after giving him a wink, "Of course I love you the most. Want me to show it to you?"

She then pecked his lips lightly which soon turned into another morning make out session for them..

Alonzo's Apartment…

Sunlight peeped through the windows, falling on Alonzo's eyes as it started to disturb him in his sleep...

He got awakened soon by the ray of sun and when he tried to move a little, he felt massive pain on his back.

He tried to settle himself in a more comfortable position but his head hit something really hard.. 

He finally noticed that he was sitting on the bed of Myra's room with his head placed on the headboard as Myra was sleeping with her head resting on his outstretched legs as his hand caressed her hairs..

He remembered the last night events which made his all previous beliefs scattered down into very tiny parts, like a piece of broken glass..

Alonzo let his heart free to feel the pain for not saving his brother and blaming an innocent person like Veronica for the past five years whom he loved so much..

----

Last night, after coming back from Fusion, both of the brother and sister didn't talk much. Myra straightly went to her room while Alonzo just sat on the sofa pressing his forehead on his palm to get rid of the headache he was having..

One hour had already passed but Alonzo hadn't noticed it till then and kept thinking about his brother Alex.

Finally when he felt extremely thirsty because of all the past events, he fetched a glass of water to drink from the kitchen.

But right then, he heard the low sound of someone's weeping from Myra's bedroom..

Walking towards her room, Alonzo knocked the door for two times but didn't earn any reply from her.

So he just opened the door without making any sound and entered the room to see his sister crying badly, burrying her face inside the pillow to prevent her weeping sound from letting out if the room..

But it was of no use cause Alonzo had already sitten beside her lying figure as he stroked her hair gently.

"Myra.. Sleep sister. It's already so late at night." Alonzo said as he patted her shoulder like a protective big brother.

Myra didn't reply anything but just placed her head on his legs and sobbed continuously.

"Stop crying baby sis. Your brother can't see you like this." Alonzo tried to console her but only in vain..

Wiping her tears away, Myra pleaded, "Bro can you please stay here with me tonight? I really can't sleep alone here as all the memories of today's events kept coming on my mind, running like a wildfire.."

Alonzo agreed with her and decided to stay with Myra in her room for the night so that he could protect her from all the evils.

After sitting there for a while to calm their minds, the siblings were now boaring themselves into wholly different type of emotions..

Soon Alonzo started patting Myra's head so that she could fall asleep and soon to his expectations, she really dozed off into her deep slumber but he stayed awake till late..

----

Tears started to pool in Alonzo's eyes, contemplating about everything but he wiped it off from his face when he felt Myra to shudder in her sleep a little..

Slowly opening her eyes to adjust with the sunlight of the morning, Myra turned her face towards her brother who was now watching her with a calm expression.

"Good morning, sis." Alonzo wished as soon as Myra opened her eyes and looked at him..

"Morning brother." Myra wished back after sitting up on the bed.

Alonzo gave her a brotherly kiss on her forehead before stepping down from the bed and said, "You get freshened up quickly. I'll order food from outside for today's breakfast."

Myra just nodded and Alonzo smiled a little at his sister before taking his phone from the bedside table and placing an order from the nearby restaurant. 

"I've ordered your favorite food. It'll arrive in half an hour. So go now and take a nice bath." Alonzo said heading towards the door.

But before Alonzo could turn the doorknob, Myra caught his wrist and asked, "Did our dad really kill his own son? Did I really have another brother without you who was also your twin, with the name Alex?"
