Phoenix Reborn: My True Brother - Episode 3
Chapter 3
The man he was speaking to having gongback inside the house. He walked to his son and tooled his hand, dropping his wallet where he knew the girl would see. He pretended not to have noticed while blocking his son's view to ensure the boy didn't see an stired him away.
"Excuse me sir!" Olivia called to him. He ignored her. "Sir!" She called a little louder. Feigning annoyance, he turned sharply to see her struggling to stand, "What, you dirty little street urchin con!" He spat. He watched with amusement and awe in equal measure as the girl flushed in anger but tried not to show it. Someone with that amount of rage could be moulded into the perfect weapon.
"One, I'm not a con or a street urchin, two, being dirty or here is not by choice and it doesn't give you the right to insult me and lastly, I thought you'd want to know, you dropped your wallet."
"Why not wait till we are gone and steal it. It has plenty of money which you clearly need."
"I'M NOT ATHIEF YOU UNGRATEFUL OLD MAN!" She snapped at him just before she blacked out. He didn't understand why but he rushed and caught her before her head hit the ground. This girl was affecting him in a way he did not yet understand and was not sure he liked

. The only person he'd had a soft spot for his whole life was his son. Now this girl....
He carried her back inside to his room and put her on his son's bed, then went back out with his son after locking the door. Luckily, no one saw them. They went to the Java store, ordered food to go then stopped by the supermarket for supplies. They also got a couple of clothes for the girl from a nearby boutique then went back to the store. The girl was still passed out by the time they got back. He forced some of the milk they got from the store down her throat then let her sleep. Clearly, she needed the rest. He and his son then sat down to have their breakfast. Luckily, it was still hot.
It was noon when she finally woke up. She could feel she was asleep on something soft even before she opened her eyes. And the room smelled like something sweet. She slowly opened her eyes and sat up. The boy she'd seen that morning was the first thing she saw. He was laying in the bed next to hers and was on a phone. He looked in her direction when she stired.
"Sleeping beauty is finally awake," he said to no one in particular and sat up.
"Where am I?"
"In our room. It's not like we could leave you out there like that. Dad will be back soon.

. Cookies?" he asked her stretching a closed packet in her direction.
"Thanks." She says taking them. He also gives her a juice. He let her eat in silence for a while and just watched her. When she was done he decided to strike up a conversation. "Would you stay if dad offered to take you in. I mean, you did say you have no one."
" Why do you think your dad would offer? "
"Just a hunch. So would you?"
"I don't know. Depends..." She was interrupted when the door opened.
"So you are up. Why haven't you taken a bath. The bathroom is right through that door and clothes in that bag by your side. We'll talk when you are done."
