Chapter 107 - You will know in a week

Helios was staying on the bed and Aria was sitting on the chair looking at the clock on the wall . She couldn't stand the awkward silence that filled the room with an unbearable pressure and more than that she couldn't stand the fact that Helios kept staring at her .

" If you have something to say , it's better to say than stare at people . I feel really uncomfortable when you look at me like that , seriously ! " said Aria in a troubled tone and looked at Helios .

" I am just a bit curious . " said Helios and then took his eyes off her .

" What are you curious about ? " asked Aria with a bit of doubt .

" I am curious about the fact that you gave up the whole work you have done till now , without giving it a second thought , just because there's a possibility that your little brother may be cured . And that possibility isn't even certain yet . If I were in your place I would have chosen to finish my studies and start a job that pays me well , then concentrate on my brother's condition . " said Helios with a serious tone .

" True but I just can let him be just like that . There's a possibility that he may recover , why not try it ?! " said Aria with a bit of a sad tone .

" There will always be a possibility as long as you have money . You were able to find a way to pay for this possibility , but if it doesn't work , you will lose a lot . You will lose your hard work at school and you will also lose the abilities to afford another possibility that may arise . " said Helios trying to tell her that her choice was wrong .

When he heard Bekora say that Aria had taken the decision to leave her studies and focus on her brother , he found it really hard to believe that a girl as ambitious as her would give up the only way she has to climb on a higher scale .

" What you say it's true , Ace also said the same thing to me . I thought of it carefully and this is my final choice . You can have all the money in the world but you can't buy health . This is the possibility that can give me the most results . No matter the price I have to pay , I will pay it without a second thought as long as it shows even the tiniest results . " said Aria in a tone which expressed all the anxiety and worry which she had kept inside for a lot of time .

Just by hearing her voice Helios could tell that she had suffered a lot from her little brother's condition .

" Haven't you tried to take him to a therapist or doctor ? " asked Helios .

" He was accompanied by doctor as soon as he was diagnosed with autism . We have sent him to every good doctor we could find . Each time we hoped to hear a piece of good news but we never did . Just a little improvement . This is the first time I hear someone tell me that there's a possibility for him to become the same as other children , as if he never suffered from this illness . " said Aria .

" Still to be throwing... " said Helios but Aria interrupted him before he could finish .

" You don't have a similar case like mine in your family , do you ?! " said Aria with a sad smile .

" No , I don't ! " answered Helios immediately .

" Precisely because of this , you can't understand how I feel . " said Aria and Helios didn't say no more .

It wasn't a problem that concerned him but he wanted her to continue her studies cause she would be a great help to him to fight against his aunt . Aria looked at Helios and asked him where did he hear this from and he said that Bekora had told him about the conversation at the medical clinic .

" Now I understand , for a minute I thought that you had done a background check-up on me . That would be creepy . " said Aria relieved .

" Haaa ?! Why would I waste my time in doing a background check on you ?! Don't think of yourself as someone important ! " said Helios and hurried to hide the CV he got from Ace under his pillow .

" I feel really relieved to hear that . " said Aria who thought that he wouldn't ask her to pay his medical bill and smiled .

' What's wrong with this girl ?! I just told her that she's not important to me and she smiles happily like that ?! ' thought Helios dumbfounded by her expression .

" You're very weird ! " said Helios unconsciously .

" And you're very annoying ! " said Aria a bit irritated by him .

" Aren't we on a truce now ?! " asked Helios with sarcasm .

" You were the one who started it ! " said Aria and grabbed a magazine she found near the table .

" You're so childish ! " said Helios and then turned his head on the other side .

The stayed quiet for another couple of minutes then Helios spoke again .

" Your family left today ? " asked Helios .

" Yeah , they did . " said Aria .

" It must have been hard on you ." said Helios and looked at Aria who closed the white magazine and placed it on the table next to her .

" Yeah , it was ! " said Aria and looked at him .

" Your little brother , is staying with you in your room today ?! " asked Helios .

" You're pretty well informed on the background of someone who's not important to you ! " said Aria with a smirk and with a tone full of sarcasm .

" Of course I have to be informed on your background cause you have yet to pay the price for your actions till now . " said Helios in a low tone .

" What did you say just now ? " asked Aria with a bit of doubt .

" Nothing ! And as for the fact that I know what happen today is because you have left a deep impression on Bekora with that decision of yours . I thought of it as the stupidest decision ever made by someone but with what you said just now I changed my mind . " said Helios .

" Well , glad to hear that ! " said Aria .

Aria looked at the time and saw that there was still one hour left before Bekora came . She wanted to go and check on Aden how he was doing but she couldn't leave the room .

" Don't worry about your brother , he's on the right hands . Bekora said that one of his people will be taking care of him since you're here . " said Helios who noticed it immediately after looking at Aria's expression .

" Yeah , I know ! But… " said Aria and Helios spoke again .

" I know you worry if those kidnappers who kidnapped Mana saw your face and will come after you and hurt your brother but no need to worry . With me here , no one will dare to do anything suspicious in this castle . " said Helios with fierce eyes .

' How come he knew well what I was worried about ?! How does he know ?! The look in his eyes is full of security and scary ! He's definitely telling the truth ! I have had this feeling for a while now…could this guy be someone powerful ?! If he is then….I am in trouble ! ' thought Aria with a worried face .

Helios forgot that he lost his calm composure for a moment . Just the thought of those kidnappers made his blood boil from anger . He wanted to catch them and wanted them dead . He couldn't control his anger and lost composure . When he looked at Aria , he noticed that she looked at it a bit scared .

" I have been meaning to ask this again….Who are you ?! " said Aria .

She couldn't keep a calm composure and he noticed that fear in her eyes but she didn't look away from him .

' I kinda like her brave character , she doesn't look away even when I am scary . It feels nice ! ' thought Helios with a devilish smirk .

" You will know after a week ! " said Helios with a smirk .

" What ?! " said Aria confused .

" Just as you heard , after a week ! " said Helios with a smile .

" Why after a week ?!.....What will happen ?! " asked Aria a bit scared and moved her seat a bit away from his bed .

" I said you will know by then ! And...ouch !!! " said Helios and his stomach pain started again .

Aria moved the blanket and the chair away . She helped Helios get up his upper part of the body up and put her hand behind his back to hold him . Aria leaned him near shoulder and chest then pressed her hand on the his stomach .

" What are....you doing ?! " said Helios with difficulty because of the pain he was feeling .

" I am helping you ! Don't move too much and don't force your body . Breathe ! " said Aria and Helios started doing as she said .

When Aria was pressing on his stomach , Helios felt that the pain was disappearing . When she felt his muscles calmed , she needed to check if he had a fever or not because she noticed that his cheeks had become a bit red . Both of her hands were blocked and she realized that there was no other was apart from checking it using her lips .

" You have to stay like this for two minutes ! " said Aria .

" Okay ! It doesn't hurt as much anymore . " said Helios relaxed then saw that Aria's face was getting close to his .

Her face was really close and he couldn't understand what she was doing . He was shocked when she placed her lips on his forehead . The were so soft that they felt like they were rose petals . When he smelled her perfume , he felt even more relaxed .

' This feeling again.....Just like the time when I kissed her . She makes me feel so relaxed , calm and peaceful....Why ?!....Is it because I know that she's naive ?! Or because she won't hurt me so I don't have to keep my guard up around her ?!....I don't know but I do know that...I have missed this kind of feeling for a long time . ' thought Helios and for the first time in so many years , he left himself completely defenseless around someone other than his grandma , Mana or Bekora .
