"Lannie, why do you keep aggravating your brother?" Layla asked. These past few days Layla can't understand why her daughter keeps on annoying her brother every time they are together. Before, they are alway harmonious even though there is a little tease on here an there.
'What has change?' Layla asked inwardly.
"It's because brother is not doing what he is supposed to do! At this rate, we will lose the top candidate to become my brother's bride! He just keeps staring at his laptop all day long, and goes out after fiddling in his laptop." Lannie would understand if her brother is working that is related to his study, but every time she peeks on his laptop nothing that pops on the screen is related to any of his studies. "And when I asked him what he is working on, he won't tell me and just brush me off."
"Lannie, whatever your brother is working on, you shouldn't be aggravating him for that reason only." Layla calmly said. "It's clear that your brother likes Anna, and who knows, the stuff that he is working on his laptop must be related to Anna as well." Layla believes in her son, and whatever he might be doing she hopes for her son to succeed.

Meanwhile, in Kyle's room, he is currently talking to someone over the phone, "Erik have you found it?"
"Yeah, I found it. I can't believe that they hid it here and yet, nobody was able to see it." The place that Erik is currently at right now is the old house where a certain couple died pointing a gun at each other. "Do you want me to watch it?"
Truth to be told, ever since Erik heard the story behind Marcus Coleman and Elijah Robertson, Erik has become curious and wants to solve the problem that those two elders have no guts to do so.
"No, wait for me. We're gonna watched it together." When Kyle was fiddling at his laptop these past few days, a certain file suddenly intrigues him. He tried to open it once but it did not work, and it only crashed his laptop; everything that he saved on his laptop was erased.
He upset when that happens, but he felt that folder might his clue on finally finding the truth. Kyle redid all his works again, and when he encountered that certain folder again, but he did not open that folder carelessly as he did before. Kyle tried all the methods that he knows to remove that instant kill bug from the folder, and when he solved that problem, he sent Erik back to where everything began.
"You know if this turns out to be so unbelievably unreasonable, I will be upset." Erik truthfully said what on his mind. In all this time he was helping Kyle solve this problem, he has been expecting that there is some deep story behind the cause of the hidden feud between Marcus Coleman and Elijah Robertson.
Kyle also feels that same way as Erik; if they were to know the real reason why the sister of his grandfather died and found out that the reason is utterly so childish. He will surely curse at their graves for giving both families such as heartbreaks and headaches.
Kyle did not reply to Erik anymore and hung up the call. He lay down at his bed and the conversation that his family had earlier popped in his mind, and then suddenly, a cold smile appeared on his face. He remembers that face very well, that guy was the person Anna talked to back at the game Aaron was in.
The way they interacted with each other it seems to him that they are pretty close to each other. Their closeness to each other can't even compare to the closeness he has with Anna, and Kyle felt jealous of that.
Maybe his sister is right; he has been focusing on the matter between the Colemans and the Robertsons that he has no time to get closer to Anna. If he keeps this on, Anna might be taken away before he could even make a move, and when that happens, then all his efforts o trying to impress Marcus Coleman will be in vain.
'Maybe I should take time off on this matter after tomorrow' Kyle said inwardly as he looks at his calendar to see what vacant day does he has to be able to see Anna.

"Lannie, what the heck are you doing?" Leon irritatingly asked Nathalia who is currently fiddling on her phone. Somehow seeing those little movements from Lannie's hand is making his heart race in worry and fear.
"Duh! Obviously, I am taking a picture of you and Anna," Lannie said as she tries to find a perfect angle to take a perfect picture to send to annoy her brother. Anna and Leon are too close to each other that some might think that they are more than just friends.
"Stop that! A certain person might kill me if you continue to take pictures!" Leon's instinct of fear and worry is right! Leon is sure that Lannie is taking a picture of him and Anna together like this and show it to her brother.
'Hanging around with these people will be the death of me.' Leon is inwardly crying at the situation he is in right now.
"Don't spout nonsense, Leon. No one will kill you," At least that is what Lannie hopes for. Lannie smiles at Leon, but that smile is not in the slightest helping him feel better.
