Night School...

Today is a bad day for the twins where both of them haven't talk to each other ever since the argument in the limousine. Right now, both of them are in different classes where Riki is in literature class and Niki is in music class.

While in literature class, Riki is reading her book called Paper Towns by John Green still mad at Niki from the limousine. Reiji is sitting next Riki who is staring at her cuz he's still worried about Riki.

I wonder, why did she and her sister lashed out like that?

Reiji thought curiously as he tilts his head. Riki turned to him with a stern gaze.

"If it's something about my sister than it's none of your business."

Riki strictly respond to him who is able to read his mind.

"It may not be my business, but I am indeed worry about you."

Reiji stated.

"I'm fine Reiji, you don't need to worry about me."

Riki assured him with a polite grin, but Reiji can see the pain in her eyes and is concern about her.

"Riki I assure you that you can't keep this up, she's your sister after all."

"Well if Niki hasn't opened her big mouth about my personal life then she and I wouldn't be mad each other in the first place."

Riki replied with an irked tone.

"Then you should've been yelling at her like that, I might not know what's going on between the two, but I believe you should think about your actions."

Reiji strictly suggested, but Riki frowned at him.

"And what do you know? You don't even know much about my life."

She coldly spat as Reiji widen his eyes. Reiji knew she is right, Reiji never cared for anyone but himself. He always spend his time studying and doesn't get along with anyone especially his older brother Shu. He never had friends or never experienced love because his mother neglected him since he was a child due to her unwanted attention towards his brother Shu whom he has resentment for many years. However when he met Riki, he felt a soft spot for the young beautiful demon woman and couldn't help but feel sympathy for her.

He then look at Riki with a serious gaze and for the first time, he shows care and concern for someone he cares deeply for.

"Riki..."

Reiji then scoot his seat closer to her and whispered.

"Do you have resentment with someone?...."

He asked curiously as Riki furrowed her brow, not wanting to think back at the time about Adriel's engagement with Diana.

"....."

Riki didn't respond to Reiji's question as he asked her again.

"Riki...tell me, what's wrong?....."

Reiji cooed into her ear causing Riki's heart to beat so slowly from her chest.

No...I can't....I can't let my unrequited feelings for Adriel get into my head....I must forget!

Riki thought wanting to forget about Adriel, but Reiji can see the pain in her eyes.

"Could it be that you're hurt by the person you loved, but didn't returned your feelings?...."

Reiji whispered curiously with Riki widen her eyes to hear him aware of her unrequited feelings for Adriel.

"....So you knew I assume?"

Riki asked.

"That could be a possibility."

Reiji replied as Riki formed a slight smirk at him, she pushed her glasses up.

"What you said is true, but I wish not to talk about."

Riki strictly suggested with Reiji clearly nodded.

"I understand, cuz I can tell how sensitive you are when you talk about, so I won't ask no more, but...I do want you to come to my room once we get home understood?"

"Mhm. Thank you Reiji."

She grinned politely as she starts to get up from her seat.

"I know class is not over yet, but I would like to go over to the music room and apologized to Niki if you don't mind."

"Oh no, I don't mind at all."

Reiji assured her with Riki grinning at him.

"Thank you Reiji."

"Anytime Riki, anytime."

He replied as Riki left the room with a kind smile at him, he went back to reading his book, but he slowly formed a smile and think about Riki.

I may not know about your past, but I'm glad you're happy again Riki.

He thought while smiling warmly at the thought of Riki.

Meanwhile at the music room, Shu and Niki haven't talked to each other ever since the incident back in the limousine. They have been quiet for an hour in the music room where both of them are listening to their music while relaxing on the floor.

While lying on the floor, Shu is listening to his music as usual, but he looks at Niki with blue eyes concern about her behavior.

Niki's acting lazy as usual just like I am, but...I can tell something's wrong with her....

He thought while staring at Niki. Niki on the other hand, is listening to her music, but she is suppressing her emotions from her argument with her sister.

Oh please, look who's talking? Just look at yourself, you're just saying because you're insecure about your feelings for Shu because you don't want to get hurt again!

Niki then furrowed her brow hurt by Riki's harsh and brutal words when she mentions her ex boyfriend.

What do you know?! You never understand what it's like to be betrayed by the one you loved for your whole goddamn life!

She then curled her knees up hurt by her hurtful words and how she takes her anger out of her. She then turned up the volume form her iPod to forget about her past relationship with her ex as she hums the tune from the song that's she's listening.

I miss your soft lips, I miss your white sheets
I miss the scratch of your unshaved face on my cheek
And this is so hard 'cause I didn't see
That you were the love of my life and it kills me

I see your face in strangers on the street
I still say your name when I'm talking in my sleep
And in the limelight, I play it off fine
But I can't handle it when I turn off my night light

But I can't handle it when I turn off my night light

They say that true love hurts, well this could almost kill me
Young love murder, that is what this must be
I would give it all to not be sleeping alone
Alone

The life is fading from me while you watch my heart bleed
Young love murder, that is what this must be
I would give it all to not be sleeping alone
Alone

Remember the time we jumped the fence when
The Stones were playing and we were too broke to get in
You held my hand and they made me cry while
I swore to God it was the best night of my life

Or when you took me across the world
We promised that this would last forever but now I see
It was my past life, a beautiful time
Drunk off of nothing but each other 'til the sunrise

Drunk off of nothing but each other 'til the sunrise

They say that true love hurts, well this could almost kill me
Young love murder, that is what this must be
I would give it all to not be sleeping alone
Alone

The life is fading from me while you watch my heart bleed
Young love murder, that is what this must be
I would give it all to not be sleeping alone
Alone

It was a past life, a beautiful time
Drunk off of nothing but each other 'til the sunrise

They say that true love hurts, well this could almost kill me
Young love murder, that is what this must be
I would give it all to not be sleeping alone
Alone

The life is fading from me while you watch my heart bleed
Young love murder, that is what this must be
I would give it all to not be sleeping alone
Alone

Once she ended the song with beautiful melody, she soon finds Shu staring at her and got irritated.

"What are you looking at blondie?"

She asked coldly as Shu responded with a light shrug.

"Nothing, just heard you singing and stuff...not that I cared about...."

He replied emotionlessly.

"Whatever and if you're going to ask me something about me and my sister then don't bother asking."

Niki rudely spat at him.

"I wasn't going to ask you anything, but...I do know that I'm worry about you."

Shu stated which causes him to widen his eyes.

What am I saying? Usually I ignore other people but...I never show sympathy for a woman like Niki, even though she and Riki are demons....

He thought surprisingly until he heard Niki retorting his statement.

"Yeah like I heard that before."

Niki retorts him sarcastically as she looked at Shu with doubtful eyes.

"What makes you think you cared about me? I bet you've never cared for anyone for your whole goddamn life."

She coldly remarked as Shu stops himself from responding back. Niki is right, Shu never talked to everyone for his whole life. Shu has been pushing people away because he's coldly detached and apathetic towards everyone especially his brothers and he even isolates himself from other people because of the unwanted attention he receives from his mother. However when he met Niki, he thought of her as annoyance like Yui and ignores her, but when he spends time with her back in the living room at the mansion, he felt something that he never felt before.

"Niki...."

He spoke to her as he got up from the floor, he walked to Niki where he sat down next to her and for the first time, he wrapped his arm around Niki and whispered into her ear.

"You don't hate me...are you?..."

He whispered with his deep husky voice causing Niki to blushed and pushed him away.

"Get off me will you?!"

She yelled at him as she felt her eyes are tearing up, she blocked her teary eyes with her arm.

"...Why?....Just why? Why are you doing this to me?..Just who do you think you are?...."

She asked curiously as tears are streaming down form her cheeks shocking Shu.

Niki....

He thought while looking at her in shock until Riki burst into the room surprising both of them.

"Niki!"

She cried where she turned to shoot me a strict frown.

"Honestly, you got to take some lessons about your manners you scum."

Riki coldly criticized with Shu rolling his eyes.

"Not my fault that I made her cry. Just asking if she's fine or not."

"Save your bullshit."

Niki coldly responded to Shu as she is being hugged by her sister.

"Are you okay? Did the man hurt you?"

Riki asked worriedly.

"No, fine. Look I'm sorry about what I said I-"

"No, the fault is mine. I should be the one who should be apologizing."

Riki cuts her off while hugging her, Niki looked at her with teary eyes.

"So...are we cool?"

She asked curiously with adorable teary eyes as Riki nodded and smiled.

"We're good now."

She grinned as Niki grinned back, they embraced each tiger once again. While watching them rekindled, Shu start to think about Niki while staring at her with concern blue eyes.

I wonder...what's wrong with Niki, but...I'm glad she's happy for now....

Shu thought as he watched the twins sharing an emotional and sisterly love moment, the twins decided not to fight again.
