252 Right Next To Marcel
After their father died, as the eldest son, their brother Eric had taken the burden upon himself to bind the family together and move the family business forward. And that involved taking care of their father’s favorite son. Him.
Unlike most families where the siblings fought for leadership and were at each other’s throats, it wasn’t the case in theirs. They were blessed in the sense that all five of them grew up together in love and harmony, making sure to look out for each other.
Although their father loved them equally, it was obvious to everyone that Elijah had been his favorite son. Maybe because Elijah was the last child the love of his life gave him before she left this world? No one could tell why he loved him exceptionally.
But then, while the other siblings would tire out on the training ground, Elijah would be seated beside his father, munching on his snacks and watching the fight – even though he wanted to join his brothers.
Perhaps their father wanted the boy to live a normal life because, unlike the others, Elijah began his training at a later age. However, it eventually began clear to everyone that he was designed for this lifestyle because he was a prodigy.
Elijah was a natural; he excelled at everything. A skill that everyone found difficult, just a trial and he was already efficient at it without even trying hard. Many guessed it was because he had capable siblings, so he picked it up easily from years of watching and following them around. Either way, it was obvious he was special.
Even at that, his siblings were not jealous, if anything they were glad their baby brother was not a dead weight. But even as “special” as Elijah was – people claimed – he didn’t feel complete. Thus, he left to find what he was missing, a purpose, and look where that led him.
Cindy was done with her show in no time and that gossipy colleague finally let him be – he didn’t get his name though and didn’t care about it either.
She was welcomed backstage by the first batch of security, thus Elijah, the unnamed guard, and another were extra.
.....
Even at that, when Cindy passed them by, she halted in her step and all three of them straightened instantly. They wondered inwardly the reason for the sudden halt yet none of them made eye contact with her.
To everyone’s surprise, Cindy passed the first and second guard, stopping directly in front of Elijah. There was a smirk on the faces of three of the senior guards escorting her.
They thought that Aziz had probably gotten himself in trouble. Everyone knew that Cindy was picky and it had taken them more than courage and hard-work to be part of this team yet some pretty face from nowhere had a stroke of luck and joined them. It was unfair.
???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????
All of them held their breath in anticipation waiting for the moment Cindy lashed out at him for a fault they had no idea about. However, for a newbie, he was taking the tension real well. Aziz had a stoic expression and showed no nervousness contrary to their expectations.
Cindy didn’t do anything, she simply observed Aziz who stared back quite boldly and the move would have been seen as arrogant if he suddenly didn’t back down, asking in a lowered tone, “Do you need anything, Miss?”
Cindy didn’t answer, rather she reached out and everyone tensed, waiting for the punishment she was about to inflict on the new guard, but all she did was work on his tie and each of them raised a brow. What was going on here?
Elijah didn’t say a word nor did the other guards interrupt either. They simply watched as the young girl straightened Aziz’s tie and when she was done, pressed it flat against his chest saying, “A handsome face like you deserves more than a crooked tie. Find me the next time you need help with that.” She winked at him.
But Elijah was quick to douse out the flame of ambition in her eyes, “Don’t worry, I’ll manage it better the next time,”
At once, the fellow guards looked at Aziz like he had lost his mind. Although Cindy had a nasty attitude, she was backed by a powerful family so she was treated like a goddess. Hence, Elijah seems like a crazy dude to them for declining her kind gesture.
“Can’t wait to see it then,” Cindy said interestedly. She then turned to the Captain, “He’s on this team, right?”
“Temporary,” The man said, fighting hard not to show the acid in his tone.
“Make it permanent, I want to see his face around. It’s refreshing,” Cindy told him and that was a real slap on their faces. In one word, the girl was trying to say they were ugly.
As much as Elijah wanted to reject her offer, he knew how arrogant rich brats like Cindy were, and how they thought of people as charity cases – she probably thought he was overly grateful for her help. But then, he wanted to have a smooth stay as long as he lasts here so he couldn’t offend her.
“Thank you, princess. ” Elijah slightly bowed his head to show his gratitude.
“I hope to see you around,” Cindy smiled at him and skidded along.
Even as the other guards left with her, they were seething in anger. As they thought, he got in here through his good look. As if they would make his stay here easy.
Elijah read their minds and smiled, as if he would give them a chance to bully him. It wasn’t his fault that he was easily loved by people around him. They should ask for a good look in their next life.
Well, thanks to the girl, he was now higher in ranking and all he needed now was an event that would announce him. It won’t be long now and he’d be right next to Marcel.
