Kris unhappily walked into the house. His father had returned a few weeks ago but left yesterday after finding out his wife was pregnant again. His mother’s stomach had grown and you could see the lump. His mother gently caressed it and smiled. Kris grumbly took off his shoes and slumped down on the couch.

“Mama, why are you even happy? That bastard left you…” his mother shook her head lightly and smiled. “It’s a gift to be pregnant so don’t fuss over it…and…your baba has nothing to do with us anymore.” his mother sadly looked away. Kris ran a hand through his hair and sighed. “Whatever” he whispered and walked into his room.

11 months later~

Kris gently carried his little baby brother as his mother cooked dinner. Kris smiled and caressed his forehead. “Hello little didi~, gege is here to take care of you!” Kris cooed. His mother watched effectively at the brotherly-love moment. “Kris, you might make a good father…” his mother chuckled, Kris stopped what he was doing and looked up at his mother, bewildered. “You’re kidding right?” Kris raised his brow with an unamused look on his face.

His mother shook her head with a smile. “No, dear. I’m serious.” Kris puffed his cheeks in ignorance and looked back at his little baby brother. The little baby boy blabbered happily. Kris chuckled, his laughter sounded husky and deep but it was enough to make his little baby brother laugh. “Stay home. I’m going to the market.” His mother grabbed her pursed and left.

Three hours later, Kris gently placed his little brother down in his crib and tucked him in. Kris kissed his little forehead, leaned back and smiled. His phone suddenly rang, he got up and walked over. “Hello?” he wiped the dust off the table. “…We’re sorry to say…Wu Xi Hua passed away just now…” the nurse exposed. Kris stopped what he was doing and his heart sank like a rock. “W-wei? What did you say? What happened to her?” Kris became emotionless. “Someone found her in an alley by the market. She…she was stabbed in the heart…” the nurse trailed off.

Kris tightly gripped his phone and his body shook in anger. “…there were writing on the wall…it said…your appa owns them money so they took your umma’s life in return…Wong Tat Chiu…” the nursed slowly said the name. “T-t-thank you…” Kris immediately hung up. *Wong Tat Chiu, you en bastard…you’ll pay for this…* his thoughts were disturbed by his little baby brother’s cry.

Kris quickly picked him up and the little baby boy stopped crying but was whimpering lightly. Kris gently hugged the baby with tears rolling down his own cheeks. He patted the baby’s bottom until he had calm down. Once again, his little brother had fallen asleep. “Don’t worry, ah-Ming. Gege will look after you. We’ll get our revenge pretty soon…” Kris glared at the floor as he tightened his grip on the crib’s wood.

…

“What a poor family? What kind of a man would kill someone’s love one just to get his money back?” You huffed as you placed the phone down. *I wonder how this family is going to cope…* you rested your chin on your palm with your elbow propped on the table and pouted. “WEI! Ying Qing Yu! Today is your last day as a trainee nurse and here you are daydreaming? Get your over here and help them…” your supervisor shouted.

“Yes, Feng jie jie.” You mumbled and dragged yourself towards her. “Hope this will end soon. I never wanted to be a nurse. There was no teacher place open at Lin’s Kindergarten so I have to waste my one year as an trainee nurse…, I tell you…” you cursed under your breath. “What did you say?” Feng raised a brow. “Nothing…” you sweetly smiled at her. She scolded and walked off. You stuck your tongue at her and continued on your work.
