chapter 74

Ashton smiles as he exits the limo smiling with Noah barely trailing behind. He soon looks up at the large mansion, it had an old new feeling to it but to Noah this place felt haunted, as if a ghost is here.

“C’mon! Foster!” Ashton yells.

Soon the door opens entering the welcoming area, soon an old man greeted them with a smile.

“Young Master, have you brought a guest?”

“Yes, remember Noah?”

Foster smiles, “yes, how can I forget?”

Ashton smiles happily, “come let's go up to my room!”

Noah barely had time to react before he was dragged up stairs, he looked around feeling that this place is different from the last time he came here as if there is a missing presence.

reaching his room Noah takes the chance to breathe before observing… There really is a difference in money huh.

He looked at Ashton’s bed, his bed was a house within itself… literally at the bottom there is his bed but he also has a ladder Leading up… Stairs. At the top was a mini house and balcony, the house was white matching the aesthetic and colour of the entire room.

“So?”

Noah chuckles, “your house looks amazing, you don't mind doing a rental?”

Ashton blinks with a blush, “no! You don't need to pay! We're friends!”

Noah chuckles at the silliness of his friend pinching his cute baby cheeks. “Well, I need to go shower first.”

“Oh, I'll go get you stuff.”

Noah nods, he looks around the room. It's pretty but looks kinda lonely. Last time he was here Ashton room felt… Safe and homie.

Oh right Ashton mother, he hasn't gone to say hi yet. Opening the door he peaks out Walking into the hall, reminiscing about the past when he last came here. Ashton’s mother The fun loving type made the place extremely Fun. After all the people who Here were Arian, Noah, Alex and him.

Noah pauses in his tracks, seeing a man with a child about 3 years old. The baby resembling the man, Noah recognizes the man as Ashton’s father. Noah feels wary, his heart beating fast, if Nathaniel Makes him feel nervous this guy… This in front of him terrifies him. If Nathaniel is a demon, that guy… that guy is the devil himself.

Noah feels his needs giving out as the man's head slowly turns to his. “You? Who are you?”

Noah is nervous, his heart pumping blood fast, sweat trickles down his face, his palms sweaty. “A–I–I …” so his lips snapped shut.

“Noah?”

The tension Broke once Ashton Steps from the last stair, soon he turns to the man. “Oh daddy! You're here.” He chimes.

The man smiles gracefully, “Ash, is this your guest?”

Noah looks at the man carefully, Ashton smiles. “Yes, my best friend Noah!”

The man walks up to Ashton Rubbing his head, “that's good, you're always talking about him. Bring more friends over” he chuckled heartedly.

The child in his arms cooed as she was asleep and Ashton looked at her, “Liz is sleeping?”

“Yes, she is tired after a long day of playing.”

“Good, let her get enough rest after all she'll soon joìn us after I'm done.” Ashton chirps.

The man feels happy gently pinching his cheek, “anyway go play with your friend now, I'll be going.”

“Kay!”

Noah soon collapses on his knees after seeing the man at a distance, he feels like all the strength is gone from his body.

Sihan and Alex smiled as they were now out on a movie, since both were free; they decided to go out on a date.

Sihan bought popcorn as Alex bought the sodas both entered sitting in their seats, not 10 minutes later both were tearing.

“Oh my the Wig–Hahaha”

“Oh janah, that's his son.”

Then there was anger…

“vete a la mierda federico”

“¿qué?”

None of them knew how to speak the language but watching the movie ultimately They learned, soon the anger turned to tears.

“Oh no, Fred!”

“You were a go man,”

Soon the movie ends as they leave Talking, “that was a good movie though.”

“I know right?”

After watching a movie, I went to a diner for something to eat. “Tonight is fun,” Alex Said.

“I almost forgot that a part of me loved to do this stuff.” Sihan said in a low tone.

Alex smiled, “before you got Noah?”

Sihan smiles,  “Yeah, but things Change.”

Alex smiles, “we can still do it, our life doesn't end because we have children? We can hang out more, being honest my life was always in the upper class in society so… my life has always been at the top. Special stuff you know, but today I feel Like your everyday civilian, hehe!”

Sihan darkens, he thinks to himself how much Nathaniel is unworthy of such a beautiful soul, he watches as his friend eats into that sloppy sandwich Without a care in the world.

Alex thinks this is delicious, he then slurps the soda. “I see them do this in the mov— oohhh brain freeze!”

Sihan eats his sandwich feeling nice, he then thinks about His former days in school. It was nice wasn't it?

Alex stops, “this is delicious!”

“You're a little foodie aren't you?” Sihan chuckles awkwardly. “Oh wait you have something a little on your–”

He points at the corner but when Alex keeps missing he walks over to clean it himself.

“Huh? Thank you!”
