[Trouble] Chapter 3 - Returning to hometown


A few feathers of white and black falls around the area of that abandoned mansion, and two baby’s crying can be heard from inside of the mansion. Some people who passed through that mansion just looked at the mansion, thinking that they might have misheard it.

The reason as to why no one come to check is because the mansion history, where there are a lot of ghost that are said to be sighted by the people who tried to explore the mansion, which scared the people whom are living in the area. It is also said that the mansion has a curse, which proved why people who came to disturb the mansion peacefulness are then faced with few misfortune.

Juniel looked at the mansion as he and Shinai land on the roof. He wiped his sweat away and smiled a bit, taking a few breathe. This is because they finally catch up to where Riz is and it really took quite a lot of effort to find Riz trails, “This is where the last trace of him is.”

“So he must be inside then.” Shinai nods and she went to the balcony. Seeing that the balcony is not locked, she opened and enter with caution. She look around as she walk as quiet as possible, to not alert Riz, and she mumble as she walk, setting a barrier to ensure that he cannot escape again.

“Shinai, this is weird, those babies he is carrying is crying… and he does not move from the same spot for quite a long time…” Juniel said as he also enter, and follow Shinai. “I’ll go check at the first floor.” He added as shinai just nods as an okay.

And so, Juniel went to the first floor, though he stop and hide when he hear someone else enter through the front door, soon after he hear sound of things clatter and a mid-aged woman and man seems to talk about something.

.._..

“Honey, i-i-its riz!” Lyla rushed to where Riz is, and lift him, though Riz was unconscious, while Lyla hugs riz with teary eyes, she was shocked because he looked exactly like her dead son, but he look much older than before. Her shaking hand move and pats Riz hair gently.

“It might not be Riz...” Fuz pats Lyla shoulder, “It might be someone who looked like him, because our son die three year ago...” He said while looking down, though he then noticed the two babies, who stopped crying when they came in.

.._..

“Who?” Juniel mumble as he continued to watch them from a distance, “And Valence shrink back?” he looked more and frowned, he felt that something is not right, while he be careful. Later Shinai arrived behind Juniel.

“Those middle aged man and woman seems to be his parents.” Shinai peeked along with Juniel, “And they look rather rich too. The lady seem to especially care about him.” She smile and sighed a bit, “well I think, it is safe to leave him to them.”

“Hey? Are you sure?” Juniel looked at Shinai, he did not expect for her to easily allow Riz go. “This very unlike you, Shinai. You aren’t the type to leave your target like this, and even suggesting to leave him to those unknown people... is really unexpected.” 

“Wha- Hey! I’m a woman too, so I can... Well, quite understand how that lady feels, and I definitely am not planning anything, okay? I’m not that evil.” Shinai cross arm and she puff cheek again, unsatisfied for that statement.

“Heh... A woman.” Juniel look away, as if mocking her a bit, so Shinai frowned and go pinch his cheek, “Ow ow..! That hurts… I’m wrong I’m wrong, so please stop pinching me.”

“Humph! Serve you right.” Shinai puff cheek more and then they can soon see the lady and man bring Riz and the babies out. Shinai are not worrying because earlier when they caught Riz, Juniel make sure to put a tracker on Riz by using his own power. He make sure that the tracker was put in a hidden location so that it will not be found out.

.._..

Meanwhile at Lyla and Fuz home, Fuz carried and put him at a room for guest despite Lyla telling him to put Riz in their son’s room. Lyla went feed the babies since the babies seemed really hungry and thin. Fuz watch over Riz by staying next to the bed for the whole night, even though he still does not believe that Riz is his son, he still are somehow glad that he is back. Though Lyla was also overjoy for being able to adopt two more kids.

.._..

On the next day, Riz woke up. However he refuse to eat anything at all, and after a few weeks passed, he started to look thinner and pale. Lyla and Fuz became worried about him and tried to talk to him, but Riz never show much response to what they talked about.

Fuz has already confirmed that Riz was indeed their son, their one and only son. He took a small bottle of Riz blood when Riz was sleeping and also some of Lyla blood too. He then went to the biggest hospital in the town where he is working at, and do a DNA test. 

The result of the test showed that Riz’s blood and both Lyla and Fuz blood are a 100 percent match, which actually shocked Fuz so much. However, when he returned home he sat on the sofa in the living room in silence, thinking a lot of stuff. However after a long time thinking, he stood up and went into the kitchen where Lyla is currently cooking.

Fuz hugs Lyla, and Lyla can see that his hands are trembling so she smile and pats his hands as a way to comfort him, “Honey… It is really our son, right?” She asked with a happy smile, yet tears still come down, dropping from her chin down to the floor as she turned off the fire and cried into Fuz arm.

And so that night, Fuz as usual sat in front of Riz, he tried to talk to Riz like every day. “Hey, what is wrong?” Fuz asked as he hold one of Riz hand, “What happen to you…”

Though Riz just stared straight, as if he was not there, as if his mind was empty, like a doll. His eyes looked dull and his heartbeat are small. Fuz checked on Riz pulse, Riz retina, and even his pain sensor, however there was no sign of any response from Riz.

More days passed, and since Riz are not responding [Riz.exe is not responding lol], Fuz and Lyla has to forcefully feed him in order to make sure that he is receiving enough nutrient and his life is not threatened. Since they cannot feed him something solid, all they can currently feed him are just porridge and fruit juices.

…Until a burglar incident on one day.

.._..

“Wow damn this house is so easy to break in..!” said one suspicious person, wearing all black with their face being covered by a see-able fabric. He put back his tool that he used to pick on the lock which grinning.

“Yeah dude, damn stupid for using a lame old lock. Hah.” Replied his accomplice, as they then sneak through the house and took any of valuable items that can be found in the house. And then when they enter a room, where Damian and Angela was sleeping, they could not help but look and stare at the two babies.

“Ey, think we can sell off this two to those human trafficker? I bet they’d be able to fetch a super high price..!” Asked the accomplice with a sparkle in his eyes, feeling greedy.

“Yea. Let’s take them too.” He agreed, however they weren’t that lucky because the two baby awoke when they are lifting them, he look at the two babies, “See how big their eyes are, these are definitely high class genetic so they must be very pretty when they grow up. Wow” he mumble. Upon hearing that, Damian and Angela started to cry loudly, and their crying alerted Fuz and Lyla.

However when Fuz and Lyla arrived at the room, Riz was already there, the burglar was on floor, somehow unconscious with the room in a mess, but the two babies are safe in Riz arm. Fuz and Lyla was shocked since Riz has never move from his own bed ever since he was awake.

“Riz…?” Lyla called Riz name and went to Riz to check him, meanwhile Fuz go quickly and tie up those burglar. He can see that the burglar have been beaten badly, that even their face is unrecognizable. Which make Fuz raised his eyebrow and turned to look at Riz after he finish tying them.

“m..mother..” Riz looked up at Lyla slowly, and he has a very gentle eyes. Lyla with tears, runs to him and hugs him firmly as she cried.

“Mother... father... Riz was scared…” Riz said while he show a smile to his parents, “Those people tried to take Angela and Damian away…” he said and then snuggle Angela and Damian, he seems like he is not going to let them go.

“It’s okay now Riz, they won’t be able to take them away... And we’ll be here whenever you feel scared…” Fuz said he pats Riz to comfort him from being scared. However he did not notice that Riz are not even feeling afraid, he looked really calm and he just smile as his parents bring him back to his room as they then go check the door and decided to change the door lock to a new and proper one.

.._..

Shinai whom are watching from above the clouds, watched with doubt, “Hey, Juniel.” She turn and look at Juniel who was eating a fluffy looking cake, it seems to be a cheese cake, that he go buy from the town not far from their location, and he is eating with delight, “Wha.. Juniel..!” she smack him with angrily.

“Uh? W-what?” Juniel was startled and look at her, though he is glad that his cake is safe from falling. “Uh, I was eating you know, that’s kind of rude... And you even hit my head…” 

“Didn’t you see what he did? His action?” Shinai crossed her arm and leans to his shoulder, “He definitely is valence now, and else how can he have such power? To bring down two adult when he is just a child?” she said with such serious face, feeling more doubtful.

Juniel eats more and said “Well, that’s definitely aren’t the strength of a child.” He lick his finger to clean up some of the cream that stick at his finger when he ate, “It is him, because we did follow him from even before he was born. It’s just whether he regains back what he lost or not.”

“Ah! Then we need to take him back then!” Shinai look at him with a serious expression that make her frown again, while Juniel chuckle a bit and shook his head.

“Shinai, you are too strict, we can just watch him, and there is no need to take any action yet.” He smile, and kissed her nose, which caught her by surprise. Shinai blushes and look away with puffed cheek, couldn’t fight him back. “Plus didn’t you said that you are fine leaving him to his parents earlier? Are you taking back what you said? Hm?”

“No… I’m just worried that someone might have some bad intention for him…” Shinai said with a bit sigh and shook her heads a bit. “That will be a disaster… If it really happens”. 

On the other hand, “Don’t worry, we are here after all.” Juniel said with a bit chuckle and then he continue to eat while Shinai nods and continue to watch.

.._..

And later the police arrived after Riz parent called them and the two burglars was arrested and bought away to the police station for some interrogation and also to lock them up, while Riz was already sleeping with Angela and Damian in his own room.

And the next morning his parents decided that they need to spend their time with each other so that they can strengthen the bond as a family, so they all went for a picnic all together. The babies look around, they had never seen such a beautiful and calm scenery, Riz plays with then with smile and his parents chatted with him and Riz reply to them properly.

“Oh yeah Riz, soon you are going to be a middle schooler, do you want to go to any of the prestige school? Father can help refer you to the school.” Fuz asked with a smile and offered the some of the sandwich to Riz while he himself are eating one.

“Mn, no father. Its okay, I’ll just go to the usual school… I’m fine with that” Riz said as he shook his head with smile, “Riz... Don’t want to go to somewhere far… Staying here is okay.” he added and took one of the sandwich that his father offer.

“Oh is that so? Okay then, father won’t force you” Fuz smile and ruffles Riz hair. Angela and Damian holding his finger with such cute smile and laughing happily with sparkle in their eyes.
