Breakfast

Ethan woke up at his usual time and was surprised to see his brother in the kitchen, he walked to him.

"Good morning bro." Ethan mood was really good today.

"morning." Evan looked at him for a moment and then returned his focus on the food to be prepared.

"Brother, why are you cooking so early? We could have ordered, no struggle at all." Ethan was confused.

Ding-dong.

The door bell rang, Evan gestured Ethan to open the door.

"Good morning, Anna." Ethan was surprised to see Anna standing outside wearing home clothes with a coffee mug in her hand.

Anna nodded at him and smiled, she walked in with him and asked. "How are you feeling? Any pain or discomfort?"

Ethan shook his head, when Evan came out of the kitchen wearing a apron. His hairs were little messy and the apron somehow enhanced his physique, Anna felt like complimenting him. But she restrained her thoughts and nodded at him.

Evan looked at Anna; she was wearing the simplest clothes with a loose navy blue crop top and white shorts but ended up looking so beautiful, her hairs are tied in pony tail and she looked like a teenager.

"Breakfast." Evan pointed at the dining table he set-up just now.

"Coffee please!!" Anna waved the mug in front of him.

Ethan looked at them confused and asked. "When was all of this planed? Why am I not informed?" At the end he pouted.

Anna chuckled at his reaction and ruffled his hairs and said. "Its to surprise you and make you HAPPY, isn't it Mr Wright?" Anna raised her brow at Evan.

"Of course!" Evan knew the deliberate message Anna gave to him and chuckled in his head.

Ethan gave Anna a tight hug because of his excitement and unknowingly pressed on her wounds, her brows furrowed a little but she still patted his head.

Evan saw the exchange between them and Anna's expression; he detached Ethan from her and stretched his hand on Anna's shoulder to protect her. The feelings and movements were so natural that Ethan was shocked, meanwhile Anna who was pulled into Evan's embrace turned stiff.

"Brother, why did you do that?" Ethan eyed Evan but found nothing due to latter straight face.

"We should not hug a girl like that." Evan said calmly.

"And what do you think you are doing right now? Aren't you doing the same?" Ethan pointed at Evan's hand that was on Anna's shoulder.

Anna was still in daze when she heard Ethan's word and looked up to Evan, his chin hit on her head and she winched. She took a deep breath but ended up inhaling Evan's minty masculine scent, she shook her head as if clearing her mind and removed Evan's hand from her shoulder.

"Let's eat. I'm hungry." Anna changed the topic and pulled Ethan towards the dining table.

Ethan looked back at his brothers dazed expression and chuckled inwardly.

"Brother, let's eat." He shouted and successfully pulled Evan's attention back.

"Hmmm…. Pancakes, maple syrup, toast, coffee, omelette and even sandwiches!!!!" Ethan looked at the table and was surprised.

"Why is their so much?" Anna asked.

"I suddenly want Ann to have breakfast with us~" Ethan smiled and sat down.

Evan and Anna sat down adjacent to each other facing Ethan.

"Not possible." Anna said and start serving Ethan and then for herself.

Evan saw her serving food to Ethan but not him, he found his brother and eyesore somehow!!!! He grumpily served himself and started eating.

"Anna, where were you? Why does no one was informed about your whereabouts?" Ethan asked with concern evident in his tone and face.

"Little Bird, are you worried for me?" Anna smiled but ignored the question, Evan noticed but said nothing.

"Anna, is that even a question!!" Ethan looked into her eyes and added, "Why do you look so pale? Everything seems fine but not at the same time with you."

"I'm jet-lagged nothing else. Well, remember the deal." Anna was changing the topic again.

"What deal?" Evan asked suddenly.

"Brother, it includes me and Anna to enjoy a whole day gaming and fun." Ethan chuckled and said. "She promised me because, she left abruptly."

"After breakfast then." Anna said, she looked at Ethan and said. "Call me Ann, my close friends call me that. Since we are bonding over a game its necessary."

Evan looked at Anna and then Ethan, he regretted allowing his brother at his place.

"I have day-off today too, are you going to abandon me." Evan asked in a flimsy tone.

"SINCE WHEN DO YOU STARTED HAVING DAY-OFFS?" Ethan shouted top of lungs as he questioned his brother.

Evan faked a cough to save himself from embarrassment and said. "got a problem!!"

Anna ignored their bickering and finished her breakfast. She just looked at them and smiled unknowingly. AHHH I miss my brother now!!!! She thought.

"You can go out to enjoy then, why are you forcing your brother?" Ann asked Evan in a irritated voice.

"Cause my friends are not in the country for now!! So, let me be with him." 'And be with you' Evan said in a low and calm tone. The last part was said in his mind.
