Chapter 6: A 'disgusting' friend

Lucian tried to find a reason, but only came out with a lame one.

"I-I was passing by soo--!!" He said in a panic.

Yeah right! There's no way he was just passing by. His house is literally on the other side of this place.

But it's not as if he can say that, he seems to have come back in his 16 and along with that, he even saw Sherdan's memories, can he?

Lucian sighed in his heart. What a terrible timing!

He was just hired as a secretary who will temporarily tend to Sherdan while his college friend, Brailey, who was Sherdan's original Secretary applied for a long leave.

He was so happy to be accepted in a decent position in such a large firm that he dressed himself to look presentable. Although he knows his boss, Sherdan, as he was his high school schoolmate. It's not as if they were close!. They barely talked!

So he needed to at least make a good first impression.

When he saw his boss, Sherdan, his eyes actually almost formed into a heart!.

He was so much his type.

But no, he cannot possibly try to make a move on his 'straight' boss can he?. So he held it in and acted prim and proper.

But when they we're almost about to shake hands, he suddenly woke up in this place. More like, in this year!.

And in his mind appeared Sherdan's future. All the things he had experienced. And even all the painful things he had undergone.

Lucian felt sad for him, of course, but it's not as if it's his place to meddle with his life.

But he can't stop himself. This matter involves life and death! And it involves Sherdan's 16-year-old pure heart!.

Although the cold Sherdan is very much to his liking.

He still felt guilty in his heart, it's because that 'cold' Sherdan manifested due to all his tragic experiences.

Lucian sighed once again.

"Wha...what? Who are you?"

Lucian raised his head after hearing the scum spoke. Yes the 'scum'! It turns out, this guy, Friedde, was Sherdan's boyfriend. And it turned out Sherdan wasn't even straight!

Everyone knows this guy, he was Sherdan's best friend who married his sister.

Although there were once rumor about them, it died out whenever Friedde was seen going out with different models every single month!

It turns out this scum is not only a scum! But a cheating scum!.

Lucian frowned, subconsciously. He doesn't know how to deal with this guy. Although this guy haven't done all of those things, he still dislikes him. But he felt like that's uncalled-for! So he doesn't know what to do.

Sherdan on the other hand was still baffled, but calmed down after a few second. There's only one possible reason why someone like Lucian, who weren't here before would come here unexpectedly, it must be that he also experienced what he experienced.

Although he can't be so sure, but there is a huge possibility. After all, this happened the moment they meet. It had never happened before, Sherdan had a gut feeling that this is related to when he met Lucian in his 32-year-old self.

However, he can't think of the reason why.

"Ah whatever! I'm going with Sherdan! Don't follow." Lucian suddenly said, and then coughed.

Before both Sherdan and Friedde could even make out of what he said, he had already run to Sherdan's side and pulled him in a hurry.

Sherdan wanted to talk to him about this, so he let him be.

When they were already gone from Friedde's sight, he let go of him and sighed, making Sherdan look at him.

Upon realizing that Sherdan's staring at him, he avoided his eyes and whistle.

He doesn't know what to say! He can't think of any reason that can sound 'real'?

Although he knew that the 16-year-old Sherdan is friendly and easy-going, he wasn't sure whether he'll take this into offense.

After all, he just separated them both! Sherdan and Friedde who was in a relationship at the moment!.

"Is there something you need from me?" Sherdan asked. He's still measuring whether to talk about it to Lucian or nor. It is best to discuss it, but it is still better to be cautious.

Imogen was still in Sherdan's arms and is now confused at the sudden events. Who is these two older brothers?

"Brother. I'll be late for school." She whispered to Sherdan's ears. Although it was heard by Lucian. After all it doesn't really sound like a whisper.

Lucian looked at her and had only realized that she was there. He suddenly felt guilty, it seems he had held them back.

Sherdan looked at him, and smiled, mimicking his 16-year-old self quite naturally.

"How about we talk about it after sending Imogen to school?" Sherdan proposed. Lucian immediately agreed. He doesn't have that thick of a face to say no.

When they have sent Imogen to her elementary school, they started heading to their own campus. Although it wasn't so near, it wasn't tiresome to walk there either.

Sherdan doesn't like travelling by their car to head to the school since it's not so far. And he considers walking every morning as some form of daily exercise.

"So how about you tell me now?" Sherdan said with a smile still plastered on his face. He then glanced towards Lucian, urging him to start talking.

Lucian breath in and out for a second and think of what to say. He can't just start talking about Sherdan's future out of nowhere, he might seem like a lunatic!.

"So, this, i actually just wanted to tell you something."

"You see, uh how should I say it, ah right! This xx year is unlucky!" He mentioned the year that Sherdan's parents will have an accident.

If he started like this, it wouldn't sound, so weird, won't it? He's not sure though.

Sherdan's brow slightly raised. Just now, Lucian mentioned the year his parents died. But it was probably just mentioned randomly.

Sherdan frowned on this 'sudden' dumb thought, that can't be. It can't possibly be a coincidence. Lucian came here although he wasn't supposed to be here, and the first thing he said was about the year of his parents' death.

"So you see, that year is really unlucky. You should make sure everyone in your family is safe. Especially your parents." Lucian said, he tried making it sound like he was just saying it in passing.

But Sherdan knows that's not the case. Sherdan doesn't find this too suspicious, after all Lucian really knows that his parents died in that year even in the original timeline. But now, he's sure that he might have really come from the future, the same as him.

"Ah! Also! In that year, don't let them enter an airplane!. You see airplanes are also very unlucky. This uh, according to Feng Shui." He laughed nervously.

What Feng Shui?

Sherdan finds him funny, and thought that he should inform him about the fact that he's in the same boat as him. But then, when he tried speaking about it, he seems to be unable to say anything.

Sherdan was surprised. What is this. Why can't he speak?.

A voice suddenly spoke inside his mind. It was a vague voice, like a revelation of something. He cannot make out of what it says in whole, but he knows what it was about.

The voice told him that he was given a chance to go back to the past and change the future, in turn, he had to remain silent about this one 'fact'.

Lucian was a casualty, he wasn't supposed to be here. But another God messed with their fate, binding them with the 'golden thread' that was more potent than the 'red thread'. Because of this, Lucian was also brought to this place.

After that message, Sherdan was quite all of a sudden. Lucian noticed this and tried calling him.

Sherdan looked at him and immediately acted upon what that voice said. He mimicked his 16-year-old self and Lucian immediately believed it.

Sherdan was still in a deep thought even after arriving to the school. It seems he was brought here by a so-called 'God'. But the matter of them being brought here together wasn't that 'God's' doing. But was the result of another 'God's' intervention.

Although Sherdan doesn't know what that 'God' meant when he mentioned golden threads and red threads.

Nevertheless, not being able to talk about it wasn't much of a big problem. He can still proceed with his plans despite that. It wasn't necessarily a handicap.

"Oho! Dear Sherdan is here!" Sherdan was pulled out of his thoughts after someone patted on his shoulders. When he glanced at that guy, his eyes suddenly held a faint disgust.

This was his friend in his high school time. More like, a 'fake' friend.

Among all his 3 high school friends, this bastard was the one who he saw under the sheets with Friedde while he was out working his butt off in the company.

This guy even tried defending himself saying that "he didn't do it", but was clearly butt naked!. Even trying to deceive him with that 'fake crying'.

It can be said that he was also one of the reasons why the 32-year-old Sherdan turned out into someone unable to fully trust anyone.

If not for fusing with his 16-year-old self, he might even be exactly like his usual 32-year-old self who always have a grim face and is always wary of every little things.

"Get lost." He said coldly. He glanced at Martin, that guy, with great contempt.

Martin was surprised by this sudden attitude that his eyebrows twitch.

What? What? 'Get lost'? What's wrong with this punk?

"The hell's wrong with you?" Martin said, tone slightly surprised.

Sherdan looked at him, with a gaze that seems to be degrading him.

"I told you to piss off." Sherdan said.

Sure, he was a taciturn guy at his 32. But that doesn't mean he doesn't have a temper. There's not a single person in the world who doesn't have a temper.

Once he hated someone, he will make sure that 'dirt' will never appear in front of him again with a thick face.

Although this Martin wasn't at fault but the older version of him. They have the same face. The same 'self'. Only that this guy hasn't done anything wrong.

"This assh·le! Did you wake up on the wrong side of the bed?" Martin was so pissed that he clutched on his uniform's collar.

The other two friends just entered and saw this scene. They were flabbergasted, but immediately tried to stop the two from fighting.

When they heard what happened, they were surprised. How can Sherdan be so much of a 'delinquent'!?

So cool!.

Arice almost laughed after hearing Martin's explanation. After all, Sherdan said "Get lost" and "Piss off" like a normal teen!.

Oho, before, he would be so kind and proper. Not even saying 'shit' like a saint.

Although he's nasty when it comes to, cough, 'teenage' things.

Thinking about it again, doesn't this mean he wasn't saint-like at all.

Sean, on the other hand, step up to mend the issue. He was also surprised by this sudden behavior, but he thinks it's uncalled-for.

Although Martin is an unreserved guy, and will often be loud and irritating, he's an honest guy who values friendship. He's a "bro" — con.

"Okay, first the both of you calm down and talk about it okay?" Sean tried to damage control.

Fortunately the two obliged without a fuss.

"So, Sherdan, why did you act so rudely just now?" Sean asked.

But Sherdan remained silent. Making Martin so mad that he almost wanted to scratch him.

He was acting like his usual self! He had never wronged this friend of him!.

He came to school in a good mood and wanted to give them presents after his uncle came from abroad, but this friend of him just ruined his mood!.

He was so mad! So mad that he felt his eyes getting hot from frustration.

Arice saw Martin almost about to cry and can't help but laugh. Martin is a manly-looking guy, but he was too much of a crybaby.

He doesn't know why Sherdan got mad at Martin. But he really pitied this guy. Imagine a softie getting yelled with words like 'get lost' and 'piss off'.

"Fighting!" Arice said while patting Martin's back.

He hopes this two can sort out their friendship and make up.
