Special chapter 6 – Family secrets.

[Third person POV]

Kai was very uneasy, with the way Kaiden was acting, their parents probably had a good reason to not tell them about this.

Well at least he hoped, he felt like his brother was making a premature decision with this.

But Kai didn't want to decide for Kaiden either, he didn't even know how Kaiden was supposed to feel.

Meanwhile the two women kept giggling as Kaiden was transferring money to them, it made Kai's skin crawl because it felt like they were just using him.

"Okay, now let us go rescue your father," Crystal says happily, Kaiden frowned.

"No, I will contact you soon, I need time to think," Kaiden says making Kai heave a sigh of relief, at least he was not being reckless.

"Oh… why is that?" Layla asked confused, "are you having second thoughts?"

Kaiden looked at them deflated, he felt like these two women wanted to suck all his energy dry, he would have not mind helping free his father if everything didn't seem too suspicious.

"I want to think about it," Kaiden says "this all too much to take in, I need time to adjust."

"Oh, please don't act all weak, your father is losing his mind...." Crystal tried to speak but Kai towers at her.

"He said he will think about it, no need to push him," Kai says angrily, Crystal had looked up at Kai before scoffing.

She had thought long before she started crying, "look how this hooligan is treating your grandmother, this murderer…..."

"Shut up, don't call my brother that," Kaiden roared, concluding now that his grandmother was not really on his side.

"I am sorry, I shouldn't have..." Crystal says, fearing she might have pushed her meal ticket a bit too far.

Kai on the other had felt hurt, his past was one he has been running from for a while now, all those nightmares he has been running away from.

"You should never, never in your life speak of my brother like that," Kaiden says, maybe he shouldn't have given this woman his money, maybe he shouldn't have even got that DNA test.

"Sorry, grandmother was just hurt the way he disrespected her," Layla says, taking note to stress how Crystal is his grandmother.

"It is okay Kaiden," Kai says in a sad voice, "I will wait for you in the car."

Kaiden hated how he had brought these women next to his brother who has traumas, who people are trying to paint as a monster because of a mistake he made when he was a child.

"I will call you after I have a clear decision on helping my father," Kaiden says trying his best to not cuss them out, if they had just stayed away from him, he wouldn't be in this situation.

Questioning his mother is going to be the hardest thing to do, given he loves his mother and his father, and this might break their whole family.

He walked to the car feeling all sorts of pain and confusion, "can't we just tell mom and dad about it, they will have the answers," Kai urged.

"We will tell them when we get home," Kaiden says, "I am sorry, she shouldn't have called you that."

"Already apologize for your new family huh, how great," Kai says sarcastically.

"Can you stop, I am not apologizing for them," Kaiden says angrily.

"You brought these women in our lives Kaiden, you are to break our whole family, you, you think mom and dad will stay together if father finds out mother cheated? She made a mistake okay, one mistake," Kai argued.

Kaiden felt his blood boil, his mother and 'father' had been together for a long time, and this was sure to break their relationship.

But he felt his mother deserved it, she is the one who defied his 'father' into thinking he is raising his son, it is her who allowed his 'father' to make him inherit the money which was rightfully, Kai's inheritance.

"So, grandmother was right when she said you knew?" Kaiden roars.

"Wow, you are already calling her grandmother, our grandparents ae dead Kaiden, dead," Kai says angrily, "you meet some old lady and now you have a grandmother, you sure are a loyal man."

"I probably got the loyalty from my mother huh," Kaiden says sarcastically making Kai punch him in the face, "what? You are going to kill me too?"

He felt a pinch of regret after saying that Kai had already dropped his shoulders as a sign of defeat, he looked away from Kaiden, suddenly he felt the car was crammed.

"I am sorry, I didn't mean..."

Kai doesn't respond instead he opens the car door, "you can drive home, I will take a taxi home."

"Kai, wait, it was not my intentions," Kaiden yells to his dismay as Kai just ignores him and walks away.

He drove home with a heavy heart, this whole mess had made him a terrible brother already, he is calling his brother names.

When he got home it was a bit late, he found his parents happily in the living room, Kai had already arrived home and he was busy talking to them.

"h, Kaiden love, come here we have a surprise for you boys," his mother says, he opened his mouth to speak but he stopped as Kai glared at him.

"Oh…... did you two fight again?" his father asks, "and why did you fight about again?"

"It is nothing serious, we will get over it," Kai says, he nods sadly to the statement, they seemed so happy today, he decided to not bring up the topic as he wanted the happiness to last.

His parents had a small talk before deciding to show the surprise, "hey you ugly males," Zoey chimes happily.

He could believe his eyes, his big sister had decided to come visit early, "wow, you are here?" Kaiden says happily.

Maybe it was him missing her for this long or maybe it was because he believed Zoey would help them out of the predicament, they had put themselves in.

"Come on, no need to squeeze me to death," Zoey joked, "I miss you guys too."

"Maybe it was because you haven't visited in two years," Kai teased.

"You guys can visit me too." Zoey defended.

They had all had a family dinner and it helped Kaiden and Kai take their mind off their previous problem, well that was until everyone went to sleep, well the parents went to sleep leaving the three.

"Okay, what is the problem? You two have been butting heads all night," Zoey asked in a commanding voice.

The two looks at each other, "you tell him, you are the one who brought those people in our family," Kai says angrily.

"What is going on Kaiden?" Zoey asked in fear, she always knew Kai as the one who brought trouble, not stoic Kaiden.

"We think mother cheated on father," Kaiden says, Zoey had a very ominous reaction.

"Why do you think so?" Zoey asked, "mom would never cheat on dad, that's absurd."

Zoey looked angry, "tell me why you are accusing mother of such."

"I met my real father," Kaiden yells back.

"You what?" they all turned their head to meet their father's eyes, he looked angry, rightfully so he just found out his wife cheated.
