Chapter-111 TY

Aries's POV

Mama has arrived. We are aware of their news. Our company in Guam has not recovered and they have been forced to sell it.

"What's the plan?" I ask them.

No one dares to answer. Even Dad (Tito Julz) who has more experience on working in a company, can't even answer.

"I don't know..." Kuya Angelo started. "...Our company in Singapore is also having problems."

Shit!

What will happen to us with this? Where will we pick it up?

"How about are partnership with DENSE Korea?" Dad asked.

"They're backing out." Kuya quickly answered. Were doomed.

I heard the gate open. Jay-jay arrived. He was still smiling as he entered.

"Hi Jay!" Mom greeted her and smiled.

"Are you here? Welcome Home!" Jay-jay said and hugged Mom.

"I think you're joking... You're on a date, right?" Dad teased.

I know they're all trying to lighten the mood. They also don't want to tell

Jay-jay what's going on.

"No! Yuri just asked me to help. That's why his car tire got flat, so we took a while." He explained.

Suddenly, Kuya Angelo's expression changed. Like he just realized something.

"Jay..." He called Jay-jay. "...Go up to your room first. We just have something to talk about."

Even though he was surprised, he did it anyway. He quickly ran up the stairs to his room.

We even heard the bedroom door close.

"Is there a problem Kuya?" I ask.

"The Hanamitchi's... They offered a business deal before." He explained.

"...but it involves Jay-jay."

I knew at that moment what he's talking about. Whatever Kuya is planning, I don't want it.

Jay-jay's POV

Oh ha! I have a lot of chocolate. Aunt Gema and Uncle Julz have already gone home.

Of course I have a pasalubong. There are also new things, like shoes and clothes.

But all I really want is chocolate.

When I entered the room. Ci-N greeted me. He knew that someone was back home so the chocolate would not be missing.

"The chocolate tastes so good today." he whispered.

I covered my ears and immediately walked closer to my seat. But she didn't let me go.

"Especially the one from Guam!" She said loudly.

When I sat down in my seat, I looked at her evilly. She was stealing the attention of the others.

"Give it to me! You're so stingy!" he told me.

Oh wow!

"Shame on you? Shame on you for not giving me ice cream!"

The snake smiled and came closer to me. Suddenly, he grabbed my bag and tried to open it.

"Hey!" I shouted but the snake immediately moved away and took a pack of chocolate.

It was just a mistake, his fellow snakes saw that, so there was a commotion.

"Hey! I'm a pig!"

"Give me some!"

They ran outside because Ci-N immediately ran away with the chocolate he was holding. My bag was left on the table.

The greed factor!

I just took my bag and went back to my place.

Yuri was already busy studying. And don't be! The King of Snakes is early.

"Good Morning!" I greeted Yuri.

He just smiled at me and went back to what he was doing. Oh my god!

I looked to the other side of me where the King was seated.

I didn't know if I should greet him.

But I guess not. He's already made it difficult for me. This shameless man is so stingy. He even overpowered the woman.

I checked my bag. I had already saved some chocolate for the two of them.

"Yuri..." I called to him while handing him the chocolate. "...For you."

He hesitated to accept it at first. But he took it anyway.

"T-thank you."

I noticed Keifer looking at me. It was as if he was waiting for me to give it to him too. I checked my bag. I was really annoyed to give it to him.

Because...

But I couldn't resist either. I took the chocolate and handed it to him without looking at him.

"Oh!" I said.

He took it. I didn't hear any thanks. But it's okay, I know his pride is too high----

"Thank you."

My eyes widened when I heard that. The guy thanked me! I immediately faced Yuri.

"Come with me to church later!" I said.

"H-ha? Why?" Yuri asked me, looking shocked.

"I'm going to mass! Keifer thanked me."

Yuri suddenly laughed. He probably thought I was joking. But I was serious, I've only heard a fool talk like that once.

"I'm serious Yuri." I insisted.

"Hahahaha... I know. You seem so shocked by what you heard."

"Oh, I'm really shocked."

"Hahahahaha..." His laughter grew louder.

Yuri's hit was also so strong.

"You're so cute Jay." Yuri suddenly said, causing my cheeks to heat up.

Why is this? I'm not used to Yuri's compliments anymore. I couldn't help but feel embarrassed.

"B-don't worry about that." I said and looked away from him.

This Yuri is annoying!

Suddenly Ci-N entered the room. Her clothes were dirty. He looked like she was being attacked by snakes. She came towards me with a sneeze.

"They followed me." he complained.

She didn't seem to get any chocolate either. KThe kid is so pitiful.

I took my bag and rummaged through the contents. I still had some chocolate left that I was supposed to have for myself. But I'll just give it to him.

"Oh, just for you." I said as I handed him the chocolate.

Ci-N immediately smiled at me before taking what I was handing over.

"Thank you!" She thanked me with joy.

Sir Alvin had arrived so we arranged our seats. Yuri had also put aside the things he didn't need for Sir's class.

"Are you doing anything later?" Yuri asked me.

"Nothing... Why?"

"I-I was just going to invite you." She said shyly while rubbing her back.

Is he asking me out on a date?

"W-where?"

"At the café near your village." he answered me.

Is that open yet? Last time I went there, they were closed for renovation. But it's okay, I miss eating there too. I miss their food too.

"Okay." I replied with a smile.

I turned my gaze back to the front. My drama was on study mode for now.

We were listening to Sir in silence, when Mayo suddenly stood up and punched Eren. In shock, none of us moved.

Even Sir was shocked.

"You idiot!" Mayo shouted.

Eren didn't answer but immediately threw a punch at Mayo.

They started fighting.

"I'm for Eren!"

"Mayo! 500!"

"1000"

Look at the work these guys do! Instead of stopping them, they even bet on each other.

"If you can stop them!" I shouted.

Sir Alvin was the only one who came forward to stop them.

"THAT'S ENOUGH!" Sir shouted while standing between Eren and Mayo.

"...Do you want me to send you to guidance?!"

No one answered but their gazes were still sharp on each other. I didn't notice that they were talking. Then all of a sudden they started punching each other.

What's the problem with these two?

"Ms. Mariano!" Sir called to me. "...please take Eren to the clinic."

I just nodded and went to Eren. I grabbed his arm to get him ready to go to the clinic. That's all he didn't move. He still looked at Mayo with a bad look.

"Let's go..." I whispered but he still didn't move so I pulled him by the sideburns.

"A-a-ah! M-it hurts! Jay!" He shouted as I pulled him to the clinic.

When we left the room I let go of him. He gave me a bad look but I returned it.

"You don't need to pull your sideburns." He said annoyed while rubbing his sideburns.

"You're not listening! What happened?! Why did Mayo hit you?!"

"I don't know about him! He's a faggot who punched me!" He arrogantly answered me.

I just shook my head. They used to get along. It's impossible that he didn't know.

"Maybe you did something he didn't like?" I asked.

"I don't know.. I did a lot of stupid things. I don't know which ones made him angry."

"Think about it!"

"Oh! He's in charge of his life!"

I gave him a strong slap. Their fight would only last longer if he was like that.

"Aw... It hurts..." He whispered.

"Think about it, then apologize."

"Oh I don't want to!" He quickly denied.

"Why?!"

"He came first!"

The King of these snakes is the one who is proud, and remains stubborn. We continued arguing until we got to the clinic. The nurse immediately took care of Eren.

While examining him, he handed me his cellphone.

"Hold it first..." He said before following the nurse.

I took it and sat down in the waiting area just outside the clinic. They were a bit long and I couldn't help but get bored. Out of boredom, I opened Eren's cellphone.

Tsk! No password.

I checked his games but I didn't like any of them. I also opened his Gallery and saw pictures of them drinking. Eren was still wacky while Josh was wearing a peace sign. I kept swiping and swiping and suddenly I came across an unexpected picture.

I zoomed in to make sure of what I was seeing. I just covered my mouth.

I just saw this now----it's the second time. Because the first one, the night of the Festival.

That's it!

Two men kissing. I'm sure and I can't be mistaken that the one in the photo in front of me now and the one I saw at the Festival are the same.

S-Mayo...

I can't handle this! It's crazy! But what I can't handle is his kiss.

Si... Si Kit!

The son of seven white sheep! How are you?! My brain cells and the worms in my brain couldn't handle it.

"Are you bored?" Eren asked as he came out.

I couldn't answer. I was still holding his phone.

"...Is there a problem?"
