Chapter 6
"Hebe, I don't have time to listen all the bullshit you talk."
"Yeah, you never have patient to hear the truth, no matter how you want to know it."
"The last time, where is my sister Hebe?"
Jared found that every time he looked into her eyes, Hebe always avoid hers. She knew something that Jared didn’t know clearly.
"I don't know." She says calmly.
"You can't lie to your mate." Jared whispered, and walking closer to her, they almost kissed each other.
Her relax face turning into a scowl giving him a cold glare. All he could read from her eyes were gain hatred and anger.
Suddenly, she starts laughing. "You... You think after all you did to Ingrid? we would still be together, poor man?"
"Where is my sister?" Jared never gave up.
"I can tell you that she's long gone, and you will never find her! " She grinned like a devil. "She left to find something more important than you. "
What? Ingrid was gone. Eventually Jared knew why he felt so weird and knew what seemed so different at house. There was no more Ingrid’s scent.
"Do you know the reason why she run away?"
"Oh God, look at this poor man. The way you treated her! FOOL! How could you think that she will leave for you since you’ve been treating her like that!"
"But she was the one to blame! Father was dead! Because of her! Why are you acting like I'm the bad guy? You don’t know sometimes how much I want to hug her! How much I want her to tell me the truth and we could live like we used to be!!"
"No Jared, you are the one to blame and your mother." Hebe said in a soft voice.
"I notice that you’ve already mentioned my mother two times, so please explain to me why this is my mum's fault? I don’t understand! Plz tell ME!" Jared’s voice rose and rose.
"Your mother cheated on your father."
In a while, Jared couldn’t make any expression as a reaction. He went down in flame, and his heart was burnt into ash. Everything went blurry, there was no truth anymore.
"You're lying." Jared took few steps backwards, shook his head. Actually, he found the answer, but he didn’t want to face all this mess, or his mistake precisely.
"I am lying? You know actually whether I am lying don’t you. My eyes already show you the truth, you just don’t believe it." Hebe’s words like knife, cut Jared’s heart open and kept bleeding.
"Now you know the truth, and you have nothing to lose, your whore mother or your sister who already run away?" Hebe thought that she never been so cruel.
Jared took few steps back and sat on the steps. He held his head, realizing that he lost his treasure, and no one support him. Regrets and guilt are two ropes, locked him so tight that he couldn’t breathe.
"How you know this? Why? Just tell me why, I need to know all the details." Jared used all his power to voice, his throat felt like burned, maybe tears could save him.
" Ingrid and I saw them, when we were on the way home after school." Hebe sat next to him.
"Your mother was... kissing an unfamiliar man's face. I hate this illicit affair." Hebe paused and continued, "Ingrid was crying. She struggled that should she tell this your dad. You didn’t know the look on her face that time. I always want to tell you what actually happened. But Ingrid stopped me many times. What you want to say."
"I do feel like a fool, look what I did to her. "Jared held his head, looking into her eyes.
Their gazes were fixed on each other. Just stared at each other without a word as they were talking by a corner of their heart.
"This is reason why she is gone?" Jared frowned.
"She said it was the best and asked me to keep this secret. "
Only fool did what Jared do. Angels rolled their eyes, and devil rolled their dice, Jared got so many times to know the truth, but he made the wrong choice. His sister has been protecting him.
"I wish Ingrid could tell these."
"She may come back someday."
"I need to deal with the worst one." Jared said pulling Hebe up and then rush out of her house.
There is a liar in his house, he needed to kick her out from the house his father lived. Jared running and remember some stuffs that his mother didn’t seem sad on his father’s funeral. He cleared the air, but he breathed in the smoke.
"I am rejecting you as my mate. I can't be with you as you hurt Ingrid so!"
Jared almost fell while running.
Troublers liked him.
