The Headmaster

Drax and Primo stop from their tracks and stare at the woman behind the metal gate. They look at each other before walking behind Aiden and Cassie.

Aiden hugs his sister with a giant smile on his face. Cassie stands up straight before bowing to her headmaster. Jasmine only nods at them and welcomes them to her house, including the two Santoros.

Drax is reluctant to enter the home of a Matautia but avoiding them like a plague will only give their family more trouble than what they already have. 

Miss Ruby prepares food for all the guests as Jasmine sits down at the center of the table and looks at Drax and Primo. She never met Primo before but she knows Drax through and through.

"How are you, Drax?"

Her voice sends shivers up to Drax's spine. Primo senses how Drax somewhat tensed up when the lady asked for his well-being. He never sees his cousin being this tensed before. 

He nudges him by the rib, making Drax clears his throat and smiles at Jasmine.

"I am doing fine. School works are just stressful so I haven't contacted any of you guys."

Jasmine chuckles at Drax as she relaxes her muscles and sits comfortably on the chair. 

"Eat up; I won't poison you guys just because of a terrible mistake in the past. Plus, none of that is your fault anyway."

Primo looks innocent despite his age and Jasmine is so intrigued as to whom is this person beside Drax. 

While eating, Jasmine catches Aiden stealing glances to Primo who is speaking with Drax about something that Jasmine already knows about. 

She smiles at her brother's silliness. She clears her throat to get their attention and when they do, Jasmine asks Aiden about Primo.

"Are you and Primo, together?"

Aiden chokes on his own food and throws a coughing fit. Primo immediately grabs the glass of water beside him and gives it to Aiden. 

Just like a loving brother, Primo takes care of Aiden while Drax shakes his head at the corner and Jasmine watches it all. 

After the choking shenanigans, Aiden sits comfortably in his chair and drinks more water before swallowing the food stuck in his throat. He looks at his sister with a blush on his cheeks and lowers down his head.

Jasmine chuckles loudly as Drax sigh in annoyance.

"Can you stop joking around?"

Jasmine looks at Drax and smiles at the latter, making Drax rolls his eyes and finishes his spaghetti.

"Come on its fun."

Drax sighs and faces Jasmine with a serious expression plastered on his face. Before looking at Aiden, who is looking all shy at Primo as his cousin gives him a reassuring smile.

"Wait…"

Drax slowly mutters before drawing his finger towards Jasmine and Aiden then pointing it back to Jasmine.

"What the fuck?"

Jasmine chuckles as his old friend starts to put two and two together and getting a major conclusion. She had been friends with Drax since High school. 

She had always been there when Drax decided to court someone in their school but ended up getting rejected. That is until the woman finds out that Drax is a Santoro.

Ever since that revelation, she had been chasing Drax to the ends of the world but the latter doesn't want anything to do with her ever again. She just wants him now because he is a Santoro and nothing else.

"Tell me, Drax."

Drax shakes his head while tapping Primo's shoulder and signaling him to run before Jasmine finishes her question or statement.

"Is it true that one of your cousins is courting my little brother?"

Drax looks at Jasmine as if she just asked him an absurd question. Well, it is somewhat absurd, considering the fact that both of Primo and Daime had never told anyone about this except him.

Primo looks at Drax with a glaring expression and Drax shakes his head to Primo.

"Nothing came out from me."

Primo sighs and looks at Aiden who is currently blushing from his sister's statement. He looks at Jasmine who is expecting for him to answer. 

For Primo, this will be the last chance to impress Aiden's sister at any point but he doesn't care much about first impression since it is something no one had ever shown to him.

He clears his throat and gives Jasmine something to expect in the near future.

"One? Are you sure that your informant told you everything?"

Drax widens his eyes and slaps Primo's arm which made the latter exclaims in pain and glares at Drax.

"Aha… Looks like I need to ask my informant again."

Primo shakes his head and stands up from his chair.

"No need to that, Miss Jasmine. I can give the information that you want."

Jasmine hums in response and smiles at Primo. Truthfully, she already knows that there are two Santoro children who are trying to court Aiden at the same time. 

But she wants it to come from them and not from someone else.

"Do tell."

Primo nods his head and sits down once again. He clears his throat and gives Jasmine the information that she needs, even though Aiden is just right in front of him.

  "There are two Santoro children who are courting Aiden at the same time. One is named Daime Santoro and the other one is me, Primo Santoro."

Jasmine nods at his boldness. She never knew that Santoros have this type of children inside of their cages. 

Where is this man during the rampage of the Old Witch?

"Okay. I will allow you. Under one condition."

Primo nods his head and waits for Jasmine to continue. He is willing to take whatever precaution that Jasmine has for her brother. This is the first time Primo will be doing this, might as well; take it like a true battlefield.

"Tell me who you are."

Primo looks at Jasmine and obviously taken aback by the sudden question. He never expects someone to ask him that question after everything that he had been through for the past few years. 

The latter nods at Jasmine and answers her question.

"I'm-"
