Wait and See
Kirian
“Hey, boys!” Mom smiled as soon as she saw Aki and me walking towards the car in the school parking lot. “Why so sulky again, Kir?” Mom asked when he saw me walking behind Aki.
Aki turned his head and stopped so we can walk together. He wrapped his arm around me and giggles.
“Stop it,” I warned but he only made him burst out laughing.
Mom and Dad looked gave us a confused look.
“What happened? What did you do to your brother, Aki?” Dad asked as soon as we got into the car.
“Huh? Why do you always think that I did something to Kir whenever he gets sulky?” Aki’s betrayed voice filled the car.
Mom and Dad laughed, “Shall we do counting of how many times you pulled a prank to your brother?” Dad asked,
Aki giggled and waved his hand in the air to dismiss Dad’s thought, “Nope. Let’s pretend I didn’t ask that,” he then sc

The Secrets of Ole Keating Village Real Nightmare
One thing I noticed in my two years at Southshire Academy, they don’t take foundation day lightly. Lucas’s grandfather’s monument in front of the main building is newly painted. “It feels weird staring at that,” Luna mumbled beside me. We’re sitting on the bench in front of the main building. I followed where she’s looking and just like me, she’s staring at the monument of Lucian Southshire, the founder of the school. “Why?” I asked in confusion. “It looks like I’m looking at Lucas and it makes me cringe.” She caressed her arms like she really is having goosebumps. I didn’t mean to but I laughed out loud at what she said. Luna is wearing a yellow sundress like she’s just going to the beach, while I settled for a yellow turtle neck and black dress that flows down my ankle. “Why yellow?” I asked her, “We look like bunches of baby ducks.” “I don’t know. I’m just disseminating memos. Better than when we’re sophomores.” She s
The Secrets of Ole Keating Village Ghost of the Past
Kirian The whole world stopped spinning. My damn heart stopped fucking beating. I always wonder how it feels if things in the past didn’t happen. I always dream about having my brother with me. Akira is five minutes older than me. When we were young, he used to be the protective one. He might be cunning sometimes and the one who is most likely to get in trouble, but he’s sure the best brother anyone can wish for. He’s the cool city kid while I was the cold one. He got more friends because he’s easy to be with but he never treated me as an outcast. He won’t even play with other kids our age if I’m not included. I always crave a brother. We’re supposed to be best friends until we grow old. We dreamed of managing our businesses and become one of the most influential people in the business industry. But everything has changed when he was kidnapped. All this time I thought he’s dead. I fucking grieve for him until now but what the actual f

The boy we all thought dead is alive all this time—and my dad was the one who helped him.Dad and Mom stay in New Zealand most of the time and we never talked about what happened in that warehouse after I was discharged from the hospital. We all tried to live a new life.Just when I decided to finally move on from the ugly past, why does it has to happen again right now?I have a lot of questions and I don’t even know who to ask them.

The Secrets of Ole Keating Village Affirmation
Kirian joined me on the veranda after dinner. It’s funny how I easily relax whenever he’s around—like he’s my lifeline.If someone told me a year ago that I’ll feel at ease like this with someone, I’d laugh at their faces.He took the seat beside me and handed me a cup of hot chocolate. I’m not a fan of it but this guy sure is.“Are you okay?” he asked, peering at me behind his cup.“If I tell you I’m not, will it change things?” I countered, staring at my cup.“No, but at least I know what’s running in that beautiful mind of yours.”I blushed with his words. I only know Kirian for a couple of months yet it feels like I’ve known him forever. I’ve been friends with Lucas and Luna first yet strangely, it was Kirian who managed to help me overcome my fears.He has this creepy aura that his presence alone will make you go hi
The Secrets of Ole Keating Village Dreams
It’s raining hard when I woke up. I can smell bacon and eggs from the kitchen but I don’t feel like getting out of bed. My room has a floor-to-ceiling glass wall. Maybe I forgot to close the curtains last night when I go to sleep. The rain is making the glass wall blurry. After all the things that happened last night and the revelations, I can’t help myself not to worry. Someone is still hunting me and no matter what I do, I won’t be able to erase the horrible things that happened to me. All I can do now is move on and accept it like it’s one of the ugly things that color my life. A light knock from the door cut my reverie. Yuan, who’s still wearing his grey PJs peeped from the door. His hair is disheveled like he just woke up. “Morning. Breakfast is ready.” He smiled at me like he didn’t reveal his secrets last night. “Mom and Uncle Ronan will arrive this afternoon.” I told him I’ll just wash up and follow them in the dining ar
The Secrets of Ole Keating Village Come with Me
Kirian “Akira’s flight will be tomorrow morning,” Ronan stated. He’s sitting on the armrest of the settee where his wife is seated. Roux’s mom looks like just her older sister, though she’s slimmer than Roux. They arrived this afternoon just after it stopped raining. Roux’s mother brought dinner for us. She said she cooked it by herself which made Yuan cringe but didn’t say anything. Now that I look at her, I can see the close resemblance she and Roux have. Just like my Mom, Roux’s mother looks like she’s only in her late twenties. They look almost the same except for the fact that Roux’s mother has short hair. “Does he really need to leave again?” Roux asked. I look over Aki who’s sitting on the carpet while eating the girl’s leftover popcorn. He’s sitting pertly like he doesn’t care about the world. “We need to settle things first, honey.” Ronan stated, “They can’t be seen together or else our plan will go to
The Secrets of Ole Keating Village Fated to Meet You
Kirian “So, you’re leaving again?” I asked while watching Akira pack his bag. I’m standing by his doorway, my back resting on the wall while my ankles crossed together. He glanced at me after putting a sweater in his suitcase. He stopped then nodded. He tapped the bed and I walk towards it. I threw myself on his bed, his clothes falling on the floor. “I’ll be back soon.” He smiled. It still feels weird whenever I look at him and found myself staring at the same face I have. Though Akira has a darker complexion, it’s still hard to see anything which tells who is who. “Kir?” I looked at him and found him fidgeting on the carpet. I smiled inwardly, noting that his mannerism, whenever he’s nervous, is still the same. “Hmm?” “Mom knows.” I stared at him, my poker face turning over. Mom knows. The back of my head tingles and I think all the
The Secrets of Ole Keating Village Say Goodbye
Kirian might not say it but I know how hard it is for him to see his brother leave again. They just met a few days ago and here they are again, bidding goodbye to each other. Yuan helped Akira to bring his bags in the van while the twins talk to each other by the staircase. I'm sitting pertly in the living room, pretending to focus on the TV series though I can't even understand anything. Looking at the twin, people might think that the scene is just a normal day for siblings who have to say goodbye to each other. It's heartbreaking and knowing that it's Akira and Kirian makes it more frustrating. I know Kirian doesn't want Akira to leave. Akira doesn't want to, either but they've got no other option. The two of them suffered so much than anyone can imagine. "What are you thinking about?" Luna asked out of the blue. I almost forgot that I'm with h
