Chapter 114 (GETTING BONDED)

As if Michael was waiting for Harry to return back home, he went to his room with games he bought at the shopping mall.

“Big bro, welcome back. Let’s go play games in the living room,” Michael said from the door. “Hey Michael, alright I’ll be right down.” Michael left the room while Harry quickly changed in to something.

He went to the sitting room and found out Michael has already connected the game with the television. He sat down next to him and they started playing the game.

“Michael.” He slightly turned to where his name was called but it was Naomi. “What is it?” he asked trying to overtake Harry. “What do you think you are doing?”

“I’m playing games with big bro,” he said. Naomi’s face turned black, she was taken aback and confused. She went to him and tapped his arm. “Meet me in the room now!” She commanded. “I’ll come when I’m done,” he said.

“I’ll wait for you.” Harry paused the game and Michael followed Naomi to her room.

“Michael, what do you think you are doing?” She repeated the question. “Playing games with Harry. I know you aren’t blind.” He raised a brow.

“Is that an insult or what?” she snapped at him. “You know what? I don’t want to see you anywhere close to Harry again,” she warned. “Okay.” Michael turned to leave but she held his shirt.

“Where do you think you are going?” she asked him in anger. “To go play my game with Harry. What’s your business with that? You don’t want to talk to him because you hate him. So, allow me to go,” he said.

“What about you? You hate him!” She reminded him. “That was then, Naomi. I once hate him but now, I don’t hate him anymore. Harry didn’t do anything to us. I don’t want to act like Mum who hate people just because she doesn’t like them.”

“But I don’t like him and that means you don’t like him too.” She sad. “You are wrong, sis. You are you and I am me. One day, you will get married and leave me in regret. It’s high time I start making peace with everyone so that I would leave a peaceful life in the future. You also should try changing your way and if you don’t, you’ll grow up and be like Mum.”

Michael slapped her hand away from his shirt and left the room. Tears rolled down Naomi’s face, she wasn’t pained because of the words Michael said to her but she was pained because he was with Harry and doesn’t hate again.

“Harry!” She clenched her fist. “I’ll make sure I get Michael back from you.” She sat down on the bed and sobbed her heart out.

“Let’s continue.” Michael sat next to Harry. “Are you alright?” Harry asked him. “Yes,” Michael smiled and played the game.

Harry’s mind was so lost in thought thinking about what Naomi might have said to Michael and the next thing he heard was ' I won’ he came back to his senses and discovered Michael has won.

“How did you…” Harry shook his head giggling. Grandma heard Michael’s voice because his voice echoed round the house. She came out of her room to see what was happening and found them laughing and playing games.

“Keep your voices low, I’m trying to sleep.” She said from the stairs. “Sorry Grandma.” Michael apologized while laughing. She went back to her room so happy that Michael was finally getting along with Harry.

Her only problem was Naomi, that was how Evelyn was behaving when she was a teenager until she started doing things on her own. Grandma vowed to change Naomi before she grow up and become like Evelyn.

Next day as Harry had promised, he left the house with Michael to go see Emily. That was the first time he was also going to see Emily in her Aunt’s place. Aunt Gloria was the only one at home with Emily. Hanna took Jeff to Tina’s place while her husband was at the restaurant.

“Michael?” Emily was surprised to see them together after she opened the door. “Hi Emily.” He waved, revealing his braces. “Hi. Come in.” She let them in and closed the door.

“Michael?” Madam Gloria who was sitting on the couch was surprised as well. She thought the twins will never step their feet to wherever Emily was. And it surprised her the most when she saw him with Harry.

“Good day Ma’am.” Harry diverted her attention to him. “Oh Harry, you are welcome. Please have a sit.” They sat down on the same couch with Michael.

“Michael, where’s Naomi?” Madam Gloria asked him. “She’s at home,” he said. “Madam Gloria, I’m so sorry about that day. I finally got to understand what you were telling us that day. You were right, it wasn’t Harry’s fault. It was our mum’s selfishness that led to that.” He apologized.

“It’s okay Michael, I know that someday, you would understand what I was trying to explain to you and your sister,” she smiled.

“Thank you Ma’am,” he smiled and then turned to Emily. “Emily, can we be friends again?” he asked. “Must I break up with Harry first? If that is it, then I won’t break up with him.” She said.

“No, you don’t have to break up with him to be friends with me. After all, you were in love with him before we even met. I’m so sorry.” He apologized. “It’s okay.” She winked at him.

“Where’s Jeff?” Harry asked her. “He’s with my step mum,” she said with a smile. Harry raised a brow Surprisingly. He wondered when Emily and her step mum became close again.

“She lives a few houses down. I’ll tell you everything later.” She went inside the kitchen and got them some Sodas.
