Episode 3

~Few Minutes of Running~

"Mama over there! Matt's room over there!" Matt pointed to a wooden door, painted in lemon yellow. Well I guess it is pretty obvious that that would be his room. There's countless doors in this mansion, all in grey or brown, and Infront of me. Was the only exception.

Now that I look at it.. Matt is fully clothed in expensive designer stuff.. all in the color yellow.

"Oh wow, I see that you really like the color yellow." I said as I opened the door to his room.

"Woahhh!! How did mama know that?" Matt gasped. Heh, kids.

"Because I'm smart!" I said proudly. I swear I'm not lying.

I sat him down on his bed and put my hands on my waist. Yep, everything's yellow. It's blinding my eyes but alright.

"Mama, do you have questions? I can answer! But I dunno much.. I'm sorry.." Matt says.

I plopped down on the bed with Matt and sighed.

"Can you tell mama how old you are?" I rub matt's head.

"I'm four! Turning five on November 7!" Matt says happily.

"Wow, Matt will be a big boy soon!" I clap my hands.

...

BANG!

Was that.. a gunshot.? gulp.

3 minutes after the gunshot, someone was knocking at the door. It wasn't light nor was it heavy. But I sense urgency from its pattern.

"Matt, should I open the door?" I whisper to Matt who was staring at the door.

"I think it's papa.. let's open it!" Matt said, as he took my hand and lead me to the door. I'm scared, but I can defend myself and Matt..

I open the door slightly, creating a small space for me to peek my head into.

"Hi Kieran~!" To my surprise, it was just Alistair.

"Phew." I let a sigh of relief. I've expected it was him, but it really feels better to actually find out for myself.

Alistair pushed open the door. "What's wrong? Why're you sighing?" He said putting his hand on my shoulder.

"You made me nervous for a second there." I said, taking his hand off my shoulder. "What was that noise?" I ask.

"Hm? What noise?" Alistair replied, obviously lying.

"Tch, y'know what? Nevermind. Just forget I even said anything." I cross my arms and frowns.

"Papa!" Matt tugs on Alistair's shirt. "Mama mean that big bang! The big bang that always can be hear!"

"Oh. You meant that.? Ah, well.. hehe, I'll tell you if you give me a kiss." Alistair said with a sly look on his face.

Matt didn't like what his papa just said and kicked his leg.

"Ow! What is it now matt?! You've gotta quit it with my legs!" Alistair complains as he rubs the leg that got kicked.

"Why you not just tell mama? Why there's a price? No need to make my mama do hard work! You just tell him! Meanie papa. Hmph!" Matt said angrily.

He's helping me.. "Awhh that's so sweet of you Matt" I said, my hands on my chest. I was honestly touched. He was only four yet he is so wise. I don't know why but I feel proud.

"You're lucky I love you, because if I didn't, I would've already thrown you out the window." Alistair chuckles and ruffled Matt's hair.

"What amazing love language, I guess that's why you're single." I said sarcastically.

"Not anymore, you're mine now." He said in odly weird way.. which sent a shiver up my spine.

"Uhh anyways.. matt, why don't you go to your uncle Viktor and James?" I said, trying to change the topic.

"But why?" Matt asked with teary eyes.

"Ah.. don't cry.. I'm not making you leave because I don't want you here. It's just that there's something i want to talk about with your papa that's only for adults. Okay?" I explained to Matt, hugging him.

"Oh.. okay.." Matt said, looking down.

"Here's some candy. Be a good boy to your uncles okay? Don't be naughty." I give matt a few pieces of candy and pat his head.

"Yay! Thank you mama!" He jumps with joy, his happiness back again. "I'll go now!" He runs out the door and out to the halls.

I turn around to face Alistair. "Okay so-"

He suddenly pins me to the wall and started kissing my neck.

What the hell?!

"Mhm~ You taste nice.. like strawberry.." he said, licking my neck like some dog.

"Hey quit it out!" I push him off of me. Yuck.. he's got his saliva all over my neck..

"Huh? Why'd you push me? I thought you wanted to do the deed" he pouts.

"What?! What on earth made you think that?!" I said while wiping my neck with a tissue.

"Well.. you made Matt leave.. and yo

u said that it's only for adults.. sooo.." he said while scratching the back of his head.

"Seriously? I was going to talk about the gunshot earlier! You're so far off!" I hit him gently on his arm.

"Awh.." he pouts and looks at me with puppy eyes.

"Don't give me that look.. ugh. Did you shoot someone?" I ask.

He sighs. "No, but I did shoot the wall."

"You shot the what?" I said in disbelief.

"I shot the wall" he repeats.

"No, I heared you. But why would you shoot the wall?" I ask.

"Well- it was a warning shot.. although.. I was planning on shooting James's left knee but he managed to dodge.. so that's uhm.. yeah." He said, fiddling with his fingers.

"Al, you can't just go on and shoot whoever you like just because you didn't like what they said." I sigh.

Alistair wasn't even listening and was just looking at me intently.

"Uhm.. what're you doing?" I asked him.

"Oh nothing.. just- just admiring your beauty.." he said, licking his lips.. he was looking at me with obvious lust in his eyes.

I don't know how to feel about this..

"Hey Kieran.. why don't we have some fu-"

Someone knocks on the door, cutting Alistair off.

Yes! I'm saved!

I open the door. An elderly maid was Infront of me and said "Dinner is ready, Madame." Before bowing and Stepping aside. Madame??

"Ah.. dinner's ready. Come on Kieran, let's go" Alistair said. And without warning, grabbed my arm and dragged me away.
