Cooper exited the living room and went outside. He went to the back of the house and sat on the swing facing the bungalow house, waiting for his brother.
One hour later.
Graven walked in the cented pathway going to his house.
Cooper left the swing. "Brother, wait!" he said and went to his brother's side.
Graven stopped in his tracks and looked at him. "What is it-?"
"How long are you going to stay here?" asked Cooper.
Graven pondered the question for a mont. "I'll be staying here for one week," he answered.
"That's too long!" Cooper blurted in protest.
Graven raised his brow in confusion. "Why?"
"I want you to go back to your place right now and only co back here on the day when Laura and I are going to get married. That's what I'm asking from you. I rarely ask you anything, just this once," Cooper pleaded.
Graven's confusion intensifies. "But why-?"
Cooper took a deep breath. "Can't you see, Laura is trying hard to catch your attention the whole ti! I think she was attracted to you the first ti she saw you. I don't want her to leave because of you. I like Laura a lot. It will break my heart if she kept fantasizing about you while she kept ignoring . Let's face it, when it cos to the look departnt, you are much more attractive looking than . Naturally, won will flock to you. You will have no shortage of won to keep you company. My future wife is my happiness. Please pity your ugly and pathetic brother..."
Graven stared at Cooper for a few minutes and sighed. "Anything else?"
"No more. I just want you to leave right now. It will give peace of mind. Please, don't get wrong. I hope you understand how I feel right now. I wish you will understand the painful feeling of watching your soon to be wife staring at your good looking brother. I don't want to elaborate much. I feel pain every ti Laura looked at you. I'm just being honest here. I hope you understand my situation," Cooper said.
Graven shifted on his feet and sighed. "I see you are jealous out of nothing at all. I want you to know that although your wife is beautiful, she's not my type. I felt no attraction to her. So...rest your mind at ease and stop being suspicious of her, " he said.
Cooper snorted. "You stole my won before! I can't trust you when you're in the sa place as my future wife. I'm just being cautious, don't get wrong..." he insisted.
Graven sighed. "Correction, I didn't steal your won. They're the ones chasing after . I never bedded any of your won out of respect for you!"
Cooper growled. "They told that you are ten tis a better love than . They talked about their wonderful monts with you in bed. Don't tell - that they're lying!" he hissed at him.
"You should know by now that won sotis tell lies for their benefits," Graven said and released a deep sigh. He clenched his hands in annoyance. He was annoyed with his brother's childish behavior. But even if that's the case, he maintained patience all the ti in dealing with Cooper's outbursts. And today is not an exception. "Alright, since you ordered to leave, then go ahead, inford my driver in the stable to ready my carriage. I'll just take my belongings out from the house," he said calmly.
He won! Aweso! Cooper grinned. "Thank you for your understanding, brother," he said and left the mini-park to go to the stable and inform the driver to prepare his brother's carriage.
Graven watched his brother's back until he disappeared from his view. He proceeds to walk towards his house to gather his things and left.
He entered the house and looked at the guy sitting on the chair, beside the dresser table with a mirror, facing the door.
"Your brother is giving you a hard ti again, eh? Why don't we just finish his life and be done with it?" said the guy.
Graven shook his head. "No. Don't do that. My brother is just a pathetic soul. He's not worth losing my patience and control," he replied. He and Cooper were very close when they were still young. But his brother changed after they grow older. Cooper saw him as his rival in everything.
"Okay. as you say so," the guy said.
"Bring our belongings outside. My brother Cooper ordered to leave the house today," he said.
"But you just co ho today. We will be staying for one week here. That's your plan, right?" said the guy.
Graven nodded his head. "Yeah...but as you can see, my little brother is angry. He wants to distance myself from this house and return only on the day of his wedding. I have no problem with that. I just co ho to visit my father and et my sister-in-law. Now that I'm done eting her, I might as well disappear from their lives," he said.
"How about your sister-in-law?" the guy said.
"How about her? I don't have the ti to think about her right now," Graven said calmly, followed by an unreadable expression on his face. "Anyways, let's keep moving. Just bring the luggage and put them in the carriage. "I'll just go back to the mansion for a few minutes to inform my father that I'm leaving," he said.
"Okay," the guy replied. He grabbed the luggage from the floor and placed them outside the house, waiting for the carriage to arrive.
Graven exited the house and went back to the mansion. He found his father on the veranda drinking tea. He lowered himself on the chair facing him. "Father, I have to go back to the site. We have an ergency. I need to go back there, ASAP!" he said.
"Wait...you just arrived today, and you will leave again?" Nicholas said.
"I'll be back next week to pay you a visit," Graven said, trying to reassure him.
"Okay, you may go now," Nicholas finally said.
"I'll take my leave now, Father. Take care of yourself," Graven said and left the veranda.
When he returned to the mini-park, his carriage was already parked outside the door of his house and his right man was putting their luggage back inside the carriage.
Graven looked at his brother standing nearby. "Happy-?"
Cooper smiled broadly and gave him a thumbs up. "Yes, thank you, brother, for your understanding," he said triumphantly.
Graven breathed deeply and shook his head. Under normal occasion, Cooper doesn't behave like this. He doesn't care if he will stay for one week, one month, or even one year in the mansion. He never did sothing like this before. This is the first ti he did this because he was jealous, afraid that he will steal his beautiful wife under his nose.
His right man signaled him that everything is ready in the carriage. Graven boarded the horse-drawn carriage and ordered the driver to leave the mansion.
Cooper watched in satisfaction while watching the carriage moving away from the mini-park going to the iron gate.
Now, he will look for his slutty wife and rubbed his victory on her face.
