The Toussaint twins

|A day later|

I was still in hospital with her. I was still in disbelief of the events that took place. The nightmares of the violence I've witnessed so far. I sighed and looked at Zariah's contact details. I dialed her and placed the speaker to my ear.

"Sœur? Qu'est-ce que j'ai fait?(Sister? what have i done?)" She asked.

"Avez-vous entendu parler de Keegan ?(Did you hear about Keegan?)"

She was silent for a moment, "How do you know that I know her?"

"I have warned you about your secretive ways."

"No seriously, who told you!? Was it Haze?"

"Don't mention that name!"

"Geez sorry mom." I could feel her rolling her eyes.

"Paxton told me. Keegan got shot—"

"Aucune façon! Par qui?(No ways! By whom?)"

"Vous pouvez deviner par vous-même(You can guess for yourself)" I leaned back, placing my hand on my forehead.

The line went silent. I could feel the anger fuming up within her.

"I think the fuck not."

"You think the fuck so, Je suis tellement stressé et accablé(I am so stressed and overwhelmed)"

"We'll talk about this when I get there, do you need clothes?"

"A suitcase of them preferably, study material and hygiene products."

"Eh? You're moving in?"

"Can we not discuss this-"

"Bien(fine)"

"Ciao" I hung up. That went well then expected but I still have to explain myself.

I am so scared to call Paxton. She would probably fuck me over. I should have warned Keegan about Zion's intentions but I didn't think it was much of a threat...

Now look at the mess I caused. I stood up, placing my phone aside. I leaned in and gently held her cheek. It will get better once you wake up. I promise.

|Later that day|
|Zariah Toussaint|

"Zariah?"

"Duncan...hi" I smiled at him. Gosh he is one gorgeous white boy.

"It's weird seeing you here?. Since when do you watch me do fencing?" His English accent was so strong, fluent and deep. At times he makes me feel like I do not know the language.

"Since today. You owe me." I arched an eyebrow.

He just scoffed and wiped his sweat, "With what exactly?"

"Do not pull that shitty move. I had your ass begging—"

"Alright alright!"

"That gala was awful" I slightly cringed my face.

"Welcome to my world."

"Hmm. Is your brother still within the force ?"

"Just retired. Got a job?"
