▪️9 - Change▪️

Actually...The correct answer in the question from the previous chapter was Petir is 14 and Daun is 8. ^^

<~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~>


Days...



Weeks...



And months had passed...


Petir's friendship to Air and Cahaya grew stronger everyday.

It was like before, they'd just met then all of the sudden, they seemed to be already close to each other.

The good thing about it? Petir now knew what it feels like to have best friends who shared same interests, hobbies or even their own gifted powers with one another.

The negative part about it? He was slowly forgetting and detaching from his little brother, Daun.







Change.




Is what Daun was describing his big brother right now.

And every now and then, he would feel unwanted, unneeded by his big brother.

But, he would only just shrugged those thoughts off his mind, thinking that they were impossible to happened.

Nevertheless, he knew that things would really change.

Even his big brother.

Sometimes, the leaf element would try asking his big brother to play with him.

Petir's response?

"Sorry, I'm busy. Maybe some other time?"

Sometimes, even when he needed his big brother to help him with his homework or activities in school...


"I don't think you needed my help. You can do it on your own.", was always his response.


Truthfully, his big brother would always help and guide his little brother with his assignments, even when Petir's also doing something important from school, he would always choose to help his little brother first.

Besides, his first priority was always Daun, but since he'd changed, his first priority now was his friends, and the things he wanted in life.

Knowing Daun, he may be a childish, playful young boy, but he is very smart and observant with his surroundings too.

The nature element also has feelings, emotions.

Everytime, he was feeling down whenever he sees his big brother hang out with his new friends, spending more time with them rather than him.

He felt a bit jealous on the inside. But seeing his big brother happy with what he has right now, he wanted to respect that.

Because all he wanted was his big brother to be happy.

Sometimes, the lightning element failed to even noticed his little brother's true feelings.

He thought it was okay for Daun to spend more quality time with his friends rather than his little sibling.

But the truth is...

He doesn't know Daun was already hurt on the inside.

That he was already hurting him on the inside...

[Daun's POV]

"Yeah?--I know right?!--Heh!-" I was outside of my big brother's room, hiding while taking a peek on my big brother who was currently talking with his friends on the phone.

"Wait, really?--Yeah sure!--We can!-" My big brother said on the other line.

Honestly, I don't know what to feel anymore...

Happy? Because, he is happy...?


Sad? Because, he might've forgotten about me...?


Jealous? Because of his friends...?


Hurt? Because, he would choose his friends first before me...?


Lonely? Because, I think he never knew I existed anymore...?


Or broken? Because, our relationship as brothers might've fallen apart right now...


Just these thoughts in my mind right now made my chest tightened....

Made my heart ached...

As I really wanted to scream of what I'm truly feeling right now...


Pain.


It feels like my big brother doesn't need me anymore...

Does he?

I then touched my cheek, and felt something liquid...
























I was crying.
