Lahat ng Kabanata ng DON'T CALL ME BROTHER : Kabanata 1 - Kabanata 10

Noah’s hand hovered over the waistband of his sweatpants, hesitating. His chest thumped harder than he wanted it to.God, he was wound up, his dick ached so bad. The escort he’d ordered should have been here by now. Every second ticked slowly and sharply, slicing at his nerves.“Fuck,” he muttered under his breath, jerking his head back against the pillow. His other hand pressed against his forehead, gripping hair he didn’t even realize he was tugging. The room felt too small, too warm. Too silent.The phone in his hand buzzed and he picked it up expecting some explanation from the app where he had ordered a male escort.Expecting maybe an excuse or at least an apology, but instead, it was a notification from a useless app on his phone; he threw the phone onto the bed in anger. “Fuck geez” he muttered his hands wiped down his face in frustration.The aching in between his legs reminded him of what he needed at the moment, his dick was hard and stretched, veins popping along and ac

Morning came slowly.Kai didn’t sleep. He replayed every touch, every word, every sound. Never see him again…so why think about it? He muttered.He lay there after sneaking back into his room, one arm thrown over his eyes, breathing like he’d run a race. His thighs still felt weak. His lips were swollen. His chest…A knock cut through it.“Kai?” A soft female voice. “Breakfast is ready, sweetheart.”He froze. Sweetheart. Throat tight. “Yeah…coming.”He dragged himself up, wiping his face. Just eat. Just be normal.Kai pulled the door open, poking his head out first to make sure the man from yesterday wasn't there.And luckily…he wasn't.“The last thing I want is us meeting again” Kai thought heading to the dining room.The dining room was already set when he got there. Plates. Cutlery. Coffee. Toast.Brielle, Mr. Singh’s younger sister, and her husband Finn sat at the dining table talking inaudibly.Mr. Singh was also sitting. And another woman that Kai didn't recognize.A woman smil

The rest of the ride was silent except for the occasional honks of passing cars.The car finally pulled into the driveway, Kai’s chest tightening as Noah got out first.Kai followed.Noah dropped his keys on the table the moment they got in.“Your room is down the hall,” he said without looking at him, already turning away. “Second door on the left.”Kai nodded.“And Kai?”He turned.Noah was looking at him now.Directly.“Don’t touch anything that isn’t yours.”Kai swallowed. “Okay.”Noah held his gaze another second.Then walked away.“Well…that wasn't bad, let me just hope it will continue like this,” Kai muttered lightly walking towards his room.Kai pushed the door open and was met with a simple but nice room: a king-size bed, a walk-in closet, a bathroom, and a small study space.“Not bad…” Kai said into the empty room, placing his bags on the bed and unzipping them.Kai was halfway through unpacking when he heard footsteps heavy ones.The footsteps stopped right outside his doo

The house was quiet the next morning.Kai stood in front of the mirror, tugging at the hem of his shirt.He adjusted it.Paused.Adjusted it again.“…You’re doing too much,” he muttered.He stepped back, looked at himself once more, Then he grabbed his phone and shoved it into his pocket.“Whatever.”The smell of coffee hit him before he reached the kitchen.Kai slowed down without meaning to.“…Of course he’s already up.”He exhaled once, then stepped into the sitting room.Noah was seated at the table.Back straight. Posture perfect.One of his hands was wrapped around a mug, the other resting beside his phone.He wasn’t scrolling.Wasn’t moving much at all.Just… there.Kai stopped at the entrance for half a second.“…Morning.”Noah didn’t look up immediately.He took a sip first.Then…in a low voice.“Morning.”Flat. Casual.Like last night didn’t exist.Like none of it did.Kai walked in, heading straight for the fridge.He opened it, stared inside longer than necessary, then gra

CHAPTER 9Kai stayed in the kitchen longer than he needed to.Not doing anything.Just… there. Staring at the door Noah had just passed through.His fingers brushed over his shoulder again, right where Noah had touched earlier, like he was trying to confirm something.“…There was literally nothing wrong with this shirt,” he muttered again.Still.He didn’t move.The house was quiet. Too quiet.Kai exhaled, dragging a hand down his face before finally pushing himself off the counter.“Yeah… I’m not standing here all day.”He turned and walked out, slower this time, heading back down the hallway.When he passed Noah’s door, he didn’t stop.But his eyes shifted.Just for a second.Then forward again.By the time he got to his room, the energy from earlier had already started settling into something else.Something quieter.He dropped onto the bed, staring up at the ceiling.“…He’s actually annoying.”A pause.“…and weird.”Another pause.Kai turned onto his side, pulling the pillow slig
