Chapter 23: GETTING CLOSER II

Stefan told Chris to drive the car and send Cayenne home first before going to the company. The two of them at the backseat silently, both looking outside the window, avoiding each other's gaze.

As usual, Stefan dropped her off two blocks away from her house. It was her request since she didn't anyone to gossip about her. Luiz and Kyle were done preparing their things and they have cleaned the house as well. In short, Cayenne just needed to show up in order for them to leave for the hospital together.

"How's school lately? I haven't been able to sit and talk with the two of you." Cayenne stated after changing her clothes for something presentable that she can show in front of her mother. She couldn't show her tiredness in front of her mother or their lies will come to light and she will be worried for them again. The least thing she wanted to happen was for her mother to worry about them.

Luiz took the basket with fruits and snack before answering her sister. "While you are doing your best to earn money for us, we've been doing our best to study as well. By the way sis, I came as the Top 2 student in our class and there will be an awarding next Friday. Do you think you can ask for leave and attend it with Kyle?"

"I am not sure but, I'll talk to my manager about it. I hope they'll understand and allow me to have a leave on that day."

"I hope so, too." Luiz retorted with a smile. "It would be good if you can rest every once in a while."

"I agree with Luiz. You've been working for who-knows-how-long that we don't remember you taking a break. You should also think of yourself. What if something happens to you? What will Luiz and I do?"

Cayenne looked at her brothers and for the first time, she realized that she was indeed being reckless. If her mother dies because of her illness and she dies because of being reckless, what will her brothers do? That was indeed a very enlightening question. "Well, you don't have to worry about that. I found this work that would allow me to rest as well. I babysit someone and helped him sleep. When he's asleep, I can also sleep. I'm well-paid, too."

"Really?" Kyle questioned while the three of them walked towards the bus station. "When did you start working with this job?"

"Just this week. I didn't have time to tell because we always miss out on each other and I wanted to let you know once we're together."

"That's really nice." Luiz commented but his face wasn't showing any traces of happiness. Instead, he was frowning and a little doubtful.

"Is there something wrong?" Cayenne asked her brother.

"I am just wondering, how much your salary for that job is."

"I am paid $3000 a month."

"What?!" The two of them exclaimed and looked a little terrified. To babysit someone and earned that large some of money was a little surprising. "Did they ask you to do anything else aside from babysitting?" Kyle asked after getting over with his shock.

"Not really. They're kind of super rich and they needed my help since he can also sleep when I'm with him. Since I'm very much needed, they're paying me extra big."

"Well, as long as they won't ask you to do anything beyond humane, that should be fine. If ever they abuse their power against you, don't hesitate to tell us." Luiz chided in.

"Yes, little sirs. I will make sure to remember that." Cayenne stated. They reached the bus station already but they were ahead of the time so they waited for a bit longer.

Not far from where they stood, Arthur parked his car. He was waiting for this moment so that he can have time with them. He ignited the engine and drove the car in front of them and stopped. "Are you guys going to the hospital again?" he asked even before he could fully wind down the car window.

"It's Arthur." Luiz exclaimed. "Yeah, we're on the way to the hospital."

"Why don't you hop in? I'm going there to check on my sister-in-law."

"Is it alright?" Kyle asked. He knew that his sister doesn't see Arthur in a romantic way and he was worried that it would be awkward during the whole travel time.

"It's fine. Your sister should be tired from all the work as well. It would be better if you guys won't commute." Arthur responded with a harmless smile. He looked so happy without any hidden intentions.

"Come on. Let's just have a ride with brother Arthur. It will help us save some money." Luiz urged his elder brother and sister. He even opened the car and got inside without waiting for his sister's approval.

Not wanting to be disrespectful, Cayenne got inside as well. Since her brothers occupied the back seat, she had no other choice but to take the front seat beside him. "I hope we are not delaying your travel."

"Not at all. I'm glad I can help." Arthur started the car and they went to city B together. In truth, his sister-in-law was already discharged but Cayenne didn't know and she didn't ask either which was why, he was able to use it as an excuse to come to the hospital and see her.

"How's work?" Arthur opened up with a question that shows concern. It was as if he wasn't rejected and shunned by her.

"Work's fine." Cayenne answered casually. She actually didn't want to talk to him or even see a shadow of him. She would always feel guilty that she dumped him but she couldn't just bring herself to love him, either. "Is everything going well with your agricultural projects?"

"Yup. So far, things are sailing smoothly." Arthur answered with a smile. "But my love life isn't. Do you have any advice?"
