One Roof With Five Hot Jerks

Sid’s Point of View

The mansion feels empty without Missy around. I feel like there’s something missing even though we’re complete. We’re in the dining room right now and eating our breakfast. It has been 3 days now since Missy left. I’m going to lie if I don’t say that I’m missing her.

Unlike the usual us, we were eating silently. Clearly, everyone misses Missy. Who wouldn’t miss her though? She has been with us for so long. Although I accompany them to get to their home, I’m still surprised that she will leave. I mean, I didn’t expect that to happen because I know that her heart grew closer to us. Also, the other reason was Alyn. I thought she wouldn’t leave because she couldn’t let go of Alyn and her love for him was strong but I was wrong.

I don’t know what she was thinking but I know that she hurt herself. She thought that the love Alyn showed to her was just a mere joke. However, she doesn’t know that my cousin is sincere. I know that because I can see how miserable he is right now. Even if he won’t say it, we can feel and see on his face how it hurts for him. And just looking at him hurts me too.

Did you know? When we got home after escorting Max and family, we saw Alyn unconscious in his car. We rushed to the hospital that day and my heart was full of nervousness. Seeing his car in front of the gate I’m positive that he was planning to find Maxine and chase after her, however he doesn’t know where to find her. How did I say that? Because the first thing Alyn talked about when he woke up at the hospital was Maxine. He even asked us where he could find her. Nevertheless, instead of answering him we just hugged him. And there he started crying.

Since then, he has become quiet. He won’t pick a fight with us unlike he usually does. After going to school, he will just go straight to Maxine’s room and lay down there. He always doesn’t have an appetite so he always skips his meals. But right now, he’s here with us.

“Finish your food before you go upstairs,” said GH.

“Why don’t you tell me where Maxine is so I could do what you want?” Alyn looked at him.

“Alyn-”

He turned to me and cut me off instantly, “You’re with them, right? So, don’t look at me with pity in your eyes. I don’t need them. What I need is Max, only Maxine and nothing else.” He scoffed, “Seriously, I’m not really sure whether you’re really my relatives or my enemies. Why can’t you tell me where she is?”

Louis put down his utensils, which made a sound, “You really want to know?”

“Hey, Louis,” Byron called him, trying to stop him.

Louis turned to him, “What? He wants to know the truth so why don’t we tell him?”

But… He would get hurt. I don’t want to see Alyn this heartbroken again and severely hurt.

“Tell me,” said Alyn.

I bit my lower lip and waited for Louis to speak, GH was also quiet too and seemed like he didn’t have a plan to stop them.

Louis smirked, “Wendy requested it. She asked us if we could hide her whereabouts from you. We can’t just tell it to you because we promised and we don’t want to ruin her trust in us. Also, she said… That she fell out of love. She doesn’t want to see you again, Alyn. You better move on now.”

Alyn’s jaw clenched. My head turned to Louis and tried to figure out why he said that Missy fell out of love. Missy’s face that day was saying that she’s struggling whether to leave us. Is he… Pissing Alyn off?

“She left a letter to me,” Alyn started. “Do you think I will ride on your words? Don’t make a fool,” he stood up and slammed the table. “If I know, you’re just hiding it from me so you can solo her. But… Do you think her feelings would change and she will love you back?” He smirked and shook her head, “Don’t make me laugh. You’re just like trying to destroy a hard stone.”

“If I knew this would happen. If I knew Wendy would be hurt in your hands, I shouldn’t have let her go. I shouldn’t have given her up to you. You’re an asshole, and you wouldn’t change. You don’t have a chance to get back to her again,” Louis gritted his teeth. “Your relationship with her stopped the day you kissed that damn ex of yours.”

Alyn smirked, “Not because I can’t find her now, I wouldn’t find her anymore. You know me well, Louis. I could do everything I wanted even if it cost me my life. I don’t have a chance to get back to her?” He shook his head, “No. It’s you… You are the one who doesn’t stand a chance with her whatever you do. I’ll show you… I’ll get her back even by force,” He scoffed before he turned around and walked away.NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

He didn’t finish his food again.

I’m on the terrace, staring blankly into the sky while thinking of Missy. To tell you the truth, Missy was my first love. I liked her the first time I saw her and the longer it went on the more I liked her. She’s simple but gorgeous, fearless, and she’s always being herself. She doesn’t care what others would say to her. Who wouldn’t fall for her?

The day she confessed to Alyn, I was there. And yeah… It hurts. However, I just accepted it. I don’t want to ruin the friendship between us so I didn’t confess and I regret that. I think it will be good if I confess my feelings to her even though I know she will reject me. At least, I said it and I let her know. But it’s too late now I can’t do that anymore, I don’t have the chance to do so because she’s not here anymore.

“What are you doing here?”

I looked to my left where the voice came from, there I saw Alyn also looking at the stars.

“Nothing…” I answered and looked up to the sky again.

“Sid, do me a favor,” he uttered. Although I already knew what he was going to say, I still listened to him. “Tell me where Max is. I’ll do anything you want.”

I smiled and turned to him, “Can you be my slave, then?”

He turned to me, “Yes.” He answered while staring directly into my eyes with his serious stare.

My smile faded, “What Louis said was true, Alyn. You should accept the truth.”

Lies. The only truth Louis said was that she requested us to not tell Alyn where she is. He wouldn’t find her without our help because he doesn’t know Missy’s biological parents. Basically, he doesn’t really know what her family status is, where she lives and what life she has right now.

“What I said earlier was the truth as well, she left me a letter telling me she loves me,” he said. He sighed then looked up at the sky, “Do you think we won’t see each other again?”

“I-I don’t know,” I replied.

He smiled and looked at me. He messed my hair up, “Are you nervous? It’s okay if you can’t tell me, I understand. Then, I’ll go to bed now,” he said and turned away.

I just followed him with my gaze until I couldn’t see him anymore. I bit my lower and sighed. I want to tell him her whereabouts but I also want to see everything he can do to find Missy. I trust him that he can do it. And if that happens, I really wish that none of them lose their feelings yet. I’m also Alxine’s fan, you know. Alyn + Maxine = Alxine. Pfft- cute right? I just thought of that to be the name of their fandom when they started dating.

[Tomorrow Morning @school]

Wherever I go, I hear Missy’s name. The rumors about her transferring school spread out to the school. And I don’t know who spread it, but the rumors that she’s a child of a well-known billionaire in the country spread too. They are surprised because they thought that Missy was just out nanny. Well, we’re surprised to know about her family too. Who would have thought that the young lady GH found was actually a child of a billionaire and the child of the next president of the country?

I hope Missy is doing fine right there. I’ll visit her some other time. Goodness, I really missed her. I’ll go there on Sunday to see her. I promise!

Damn. Just thinking about visiting her makes my heart pound. I’m excited.

Hmm… What gift should I give to her? It’s shameful if I go there without a gift.

My smile faded and I stopped walking in the hallway when someone suddenly blocked the path. The heck?

My brows furrowed, “What are you doing?”

“U-Uhm… Can I talk to you?” She said.

“Huh? Who are you?” My brows remained furrowed.

“I’m Angela!” Her face lit up suddenly. “Angela Garcia,” then she smiled.

“Who cares? Tch,” I clicked my tongue and pushed her to the side.

The hell is her problem? What a bold gesture, blocking my way, really? I don’t even know her.
