The Brother Who Hates Me

[Wow, is this some kind of what you call the moment of silence?]

Sheena sent a message to Lou sensing the tension between Jordan and Raven inside the car.

Lou was sitting in the passenger seat at front while she was seated at the back right side beside Raven who insisted that Jordan's driver dropped her off after they reached Jordan and Raven's destination first which was along the way from Sheena's house.

Lou replied her message…

[Don't mind them. After we dropped them off let's talk instead at the nearest coffee shop at your place.]

Sheena suddenly paled.

"Oh, stop the car at the next subway. I almost forgot that I have to meet my father there." Sheena said out of nowhere.

Yes she was daring at Lou, always sending him bold messages but in person she can't just do it. She was feeling timid whenever she sees Lou.

Sheena liked Jordan's assistant a lot. He was handsome and with a stable job so she already set her eyes on him. But what she loved the most about Lou was he was a good fighter. She fell in love seeing how he protected her from the bullies. Knocking all the men down who pestered their house because of debts and almost killing those bastards who even dared to touch her. From that moment, she had bowed and promised to herself that she will get Lou by all means.

Then she scratched her head and laughed at herself because how can she get him if she was acting timid like this whenever she sees him. She was only good and brazen at sending chat messages at his mobile phone.

'Why can't I overcome my shyness around him?' she thought to herself helplessly.

Meanwhile, Lou stared at the back of Sheena who hurriedly walked out from the car down to the stairs of the subway.

'What is wrong with her? Why do I feel like she was avoiding me whenever we got to see each other?' Lou thought to himself and shook his head. How can he believe she liked him if she was acting the opposite? He decided to clarify things with the girl because lately something was bothering him inside.

Before, it doesn't matter at all whenever he received messages or not from Sheena, but lately…

Lou sighed deeply and was thinking if he will send another message to Sheena. However his phone beeped and it was another message from Sheena.

[Yeah, I know you've missed me a lot. Let's keep it that way and just wait for me to contact you once I am ready to meet up with you and talk to you in person.]

[Oh, right after your work go home straight and take care. Message me once you are home. **kiss and hug emoticons.]

Lou's heart stopped beating in just those simple messages. He had to do something or he felt like he was a ticking bomb that's going to blow up anytime sooner.

On the other hand, Raven can no longer take the silence and turned around to face Jordan. "What are you planning to do now?" she asked out of curiosity.

"About what?" Jordan answered as if he was not getting Raven's topic at all.

Raven arched an eyebrow and continued, "What else, I am talking about the disinheritance thing and marriage? Father seemed to be serious about it.

Jordan sighed deeply and turned his head to face Raven that time.

"What else should I do but to get married as soon as possible don't you think?" Jordan answered simply as he stared at Raven's eyes.

"But how are you going to marry when you even don't have a girlfriend yet. Don't tell me you will have an arrange marriage with fathers' business associates?" Raven asked with a creased forehead.

"Hmmm… That's a good idea, I will think about it. Lou, check the companies with good records and set me up to meet their daughters as soon as possible." Jordan suddenly instructed his assistant.

Lou replied, "Yes Boss."

Raven's face darkened. 'What the hell is wrong with him? Does he enjoy this? Is this some kind of a joke to him?' She thought to herself.

She was irritated because she thought Jordan will ask for her help. She even completed her conditions inside her head and was planning to type it then print it out in hard copy so everything will be clearer.

Raven almost jumped off from her seat when she felt a warm hand touching her face.

"Are you feeling alright? Why do you look pale suddenly?" Jordan asked staring at her while he touched her forehead then caressed her cheek. Raven bit her lip and her face flushed.

"I guess, I saw wrong. Your color was back and your cheeks were blushing now." Jordan said in a teasing tone.

Raven turned her face abruptly to the car window and said, "I am fine. I'm just hungry."

Jordan was grinning to himself. It's been a while since he saw Raven biting her lower lip. How he missed that. One of Raven's mannerisms whenever she was feeling confused or having mixed emotions was she always bit her lower lip.

Whenever he saw her doing that all he wanted to do was to kiss her. However, he was suppressing himself. He had noticed that whenever he was cold with her, she was the one who initiate the contact and he was enjoying it.
