Chapter 44 Just a simple rejection?
"It's been a fucking week already, get yourself together bro!!" Emily banged on the door as Yandel
refused to come out of his room, he had been sulking for the past week staying up in his room and
coming home late for breakfast and dinner and working out over time. It was something everyone knew
about Yandel, whenever he was sad or felt down he would leave his apartment in the city and stay at
the family house just to sulk, she wasn't about to let him sulk alone. It was hard to see Yandel all
worked up over a girl, he was that type of guy, he was always focused on work and didn't let things like
relationships and Heartbreaks to let him down, but now she sees that he really likes Araceli.
"Come on bro, for real, this ain't cool," Ethan agreed with Emily who gave him a look telling him
that he should shut the fuck up or she was gonna make him regret waking up this morning, but as
usual, her dumb twin brother will forever remain the same Dumb Ethan.
"Whatttt??!" Ethan exclaimed, putting his hands on his waist staring at Emily who seemed to have
something to say to him just like every other time.
"You seriously gonna go up and down telling him it ain't cool," Emily said, completely ignoring the
door they were both facing that led to Yandel's room.
"When Sasha broke up with you, you were a fucking mess, you would always cry the locker room
and stalk her around school so don't go around telling people to be cool because you ain't cool," Emily
lashed out at him.
"At least he isn't stalking her in a creepish weird way," Emily said, turning back to see that the door
was already slightly open and Yandel was peeping at them, specifically at Ethan who wouldn't meet his
eyes. He had his light brown almost blond hair tousled over his head falling into his eyes, he still had
his black vest on from last night.
"Heyyy,"
"Look who decided to come out of hibernation, I'm sure you must be very hungry, no worries I got
you, I did awful lot of pancakes and made some cold cream frosting," Emily said, smiling sweetly at
Yandel's rather grumpy looking face that had sleep mark on it.
"Emily, you don't cook," Yandel deadpanned.
"Trueeee,"
"But I had the cook make you your fav, at least be appreciative and not launch attacks on me like
that," Emily said walking away from the door down the hallway towards the stairs.
"Hey please can you tell the maids to bring it up here?," Yandel asked, trying his luck with Emily's
wrath which she seemed to inherit from her mother.
"No!!!"
"Get your ass down here, It's already noon, we are going to the Trench Arcade and you are
coming with us," Emily said in a bossy tone with finality written all over Her tone.
"You are way too bossy for the shortest person in this house," Ethan said, going back to get more
pancakes from the kitchen.
"Hey I'm not short, 5'9 isn't short," Emily whined.
"Lol you wish chipmunk," Ethan said, tugging at her cheeks even though they were hollow just like
his, he had his hands swapped away with a painful slap.
"Don't fucking touch my face you twimp," Emily growled.
"Hey, No tearing each other apart at my watch," Yandel came down the stairs spotting a black
jeans and grey Flannel shirt with black and white crocs, a total opposite from what he wears everyday,
which is some boring ass tie on some random dull color undershirt and black or grey blazers.
"Well someone looks a little refreshed, I mean I could spot the eye bags from miles away but that's
not important," Emily stood up and went towards him adjusting his hair.
"What is important is that you are going to leave this house and have fun, alot of it," Emily said,
smiling evilly at him.
"I don't get why you guys are heading to an Arcade when you guys have a game room size of
three living rooms and still want to be out there playing, possibly lower grades," Yandel said, confused.
"Well here's first, You don't exactly allow us into the game room at home because you think we will
ruin it or out friends will,"
"Secondly, it's just fun knowing there are other people there trying to have fun and forget school
and HEARTBREAK," Emily pointed out the emphasis on heartbreak.
"Very subtle," Ethan commented while stuffing his face with pancakes and frost cream.
"Thank you, I tried my best," Emily replied with sass which earned her an eye roll from Ethan.
"I don't get it, how would you even get heartbroken if you guys didn't even date," Ethan asked, Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.
confused , finishing off the pancake crust.
"Just a simple rejection," Yandel said in a low voice.
"Details!!"....
"Well what can I say, on the day you guys threw that stupid party of yours…"
"Hey my party is not stupid, it's one of the coolest ever thrown in our college stamped and verified,"
Ethan said, smiling proudly.
"Yeah right," Yandel said, standing up to take some more pancakes.
"Ethan just shut the fuck up and let's listen to Yandel's sad story so we can understand who to
fucking hit on The head with the hammer i just bought the other day," Emily said, with an exasperated
voice. The two males stopped what they were doing with a half eaten pancake hanging from his mouth
as stared at Emily weirdly.
Emily soon got sick of the stares, acting like she said she dealt with nuclear weapons. "Y'all chill
the fuck out," Emily said, dragging the chair backwards again the glue polished wood in the dinning
area causing an ear cracking sound.
"Emily!!!," Both Yandel and Ethan shouted at the same time staring at her in disapproval, in return
she just rolled her eyes and went to the kitchen to drop her plate after which she hopped on the kitchen
counter already wearing her outing outfit, A black leather Botega boot, with a red checked school girl
shorts.
"You gonna continue telling us the story or what??," Emily said, clearly tired of the conversation
even before it started.
"Well it was the night of your party and we decided to go to the game room to play some games
which I won every round till I finally let her win the last one," Yandel clearly remembered the night like it
just happened the previous day, he hadn't laughed so hard that he needed to take a sit.
"You got to let a lady win!!!"
"You let her into the game room!!!" Emily and Ethan said simultaneously in a respective manner
which earned them a 'shut the fuck up and listen' stare.
"Then we went to my study, listened to Billie Eilish, had a good wine or two and kissed," Yandel
concluded, but the shock on his face made him rethink his last words again.
"You what?!!!!" They both yelled at him as their expression slowly started to show betrayal.
"kissed….her…" He repeated this timing slowly as he also started to think about why they were
looking betrayed or was he not suppose to kiss her.
"You let her into your study!!"
"That's fucking unfair," they both said at the same time flexing the twin jinx which happened once
in a while but creeped Yandel the hell out.
"Oh for fucksake, not this again," Yandel rubbed his two hands over his face knowing the twins
were about to go into their 'freedom to look into your stuff and rights' frenzy like they had every right to
be in your personal space.
"So you guys aren't gonna talk about the fact I kissed her?," Yandel changed the topic before he
got another private space lecture.
"Kissed her??"
"That's not a big deal bro, It's not like you exchanged rings or something," Emily said, looking at
Yandel weirdly.
"A kiss is not a big deal!!!"
"What is wrong with your generation, you belittle everything," Yandel exclaimed.
"We built a stronger emotional wall, that's what we did, Times have changed, you have to adapt,"
Emily said.
"And this story ends with her rejecting you??" Ethan said, looking at his brother in pity.
"Well that being said and done...To the Trench Arcade!!!!" Emily yelled all hyped up as she came
off the counter and moved to the living room to get her little bag where she had her wallet.
The drive to the Arcade was full of Emily and Ethan ranking back and forth while Yandel kept
complaining about how bad it is to drive with crocs but the twins weren't paying him any mind. Once
they reached Trench parking lot, they both hopped down and ran towards the Arcades like kids but
didn't enter as they realized Yandel hadn't come out of his car, dragging him out and into the cafe.
They decided to go get some little snack to munch on before they gamed to their satisfaction, that
was when Emily saw Araceli and her friends on one of the tables.
"Don't look at your 12 o'clock," Emily whispered to Yandel but Yandel's eyes had already met
Araceli's before he could heed the warning…
