Thanks for the wonderful reviews everybody.
Chapter 4
Alibaba was sitting in the lounge since it was his break time. He was thinking about the events that just happened yesterday. He didn`t realize that the Kou Empire and Sindria hated each other that bad.
"I wonder how the fight started." He thought. When they aren't dealing with each other they are all like smiles.
"Alibaba-kun, you're on break too." The blond watched as Kouha sat beside him. Alibaba-kun, you're not from here are you?"
"I'm from Balbadd." The blond replied.
"Balbadd." Kouha said in a shock voice. The abandoned country."
"Yep." Alibaba said without caring about it.
"Kouha are you in here?" A boy with a scar on his face appeared.
"I'm here." Kouha called out.
"Koumei is calling for you, about something important."
"I'll see you around." Kouha said get up from his seat. So much for my break." He said leaving the room.
"You're the new employee that Kouen hired." The boy spoke.
"I'm Alibaba." The blond spoke.
"I'm Ren Hakuryuu." The boy spoke. You don't have last name."
"I don't remember having a last name." Alibaba lied. The blond knew his full name well but he couldn't tell anybody.
"I heard your conversation with Kouha." Hakuryuu said. Sorry I overheard."
"It's fine." The blond replied. Alibaba didn't care about it anymore since it was about the past and he couldn't change it now, but he would one day.
"You're strange." Hakuryuu laughed.
Alibaba was done his break and headed back to work. Judal was working alongside the blond and it was giving him a headache how the raven ordered him around.
"Geez, you're slow!" Judal yelled. Can't you do work any faster." It was the same every time that the blond would work the raven.
"Geez, you're slow!" The blond repeated in his head. Can't you do work any faster." Every word that Judal said was stuck inside his head.
"You got something to say, brat." Judal said. The blond wanted to say something but resisted and just gave a glare at the raven and continue doing his job.
"You're really harsh." Kouha said. Still I can't believe he's keeping up with you even so."
"I guess but I can't believe he dare give me that look."
"Met your match." Kouha laughed it off and went back to kitchen and continue his work.
After work was finished Kouen had told the blond stay over a little longer since they were going to have some get together at the restaurant. The blond didn't want to stay but he had no choice since everybody kept on telling him to stay.
"Alibaba-kun, let have a get together at your home next time." Kouha said clinging to the blond. From the looks of it the pinkette was drunk from drinking too much.
"That's impossible." Alibaba thought. There was no way everybody would fit in that tiny apartment.
"Are you listening?" Kouha said staring at the blond.
"Yes I am." The blond replied.
"You haven't drunk any yet." Hakuryuu asked surprised when he saw that all Alibaba had was some water.
"He's right." Koumei said. He was about to pour some for the blond but Alibaba manage to grab the glass that Koumei was going pour in.
"I don't drink." The blond said.
"You don't." Everybody said. Everybody could totally see it since the blond was so innocent.
"It's better he doesn't drink anyway." Judal said. I don't want to be carrying a drunk home like Kouha."
"I don't get drunk." Alibaba yelled. He didn't mean to say it but his voice came out loud. I used to drink but stopped."
"Is that so?" Judal asked with a teasing smile. I like to see you drink then."
"That's too bad since I'm not going to anytime soon."
"Maybe you should since you say you don't get drunk." Judal retorted back.
"No matter what you say I won't?" Alibaba yelled back. The two were yelling nonstop about drinking the whole time that everybody got tired of it and continue to drink their own.
"It's getting late." The blond said looking at the clock. I better go home." He started getting up from his seat.
"You can't walk home alone." Kouen said stopping the blond. Judal go take him home." Both Alibaba and Judal had annoyed look on his faces.
"I'm a man so I will be fine." Alibaba said. He didn't want this jerk to take him home.
"In what way are you a man?" Judal laughed. Have you looked at yourself in the mirror? This made the boy tick. He didn't like the way Judal had just spoken to him.
"Don't be mean to Alibaba-kun." Kouha said still just drunk.
"You also should look at yourself too." Judal said but Kouha didn't care since he was so drunk, he didn't understand anything anymore.
In the end Judal ended up taking the blond home.
"How did it end up like this?" Alibaba thought. Since they were arguing so much Kouen snapped and kicked them both outside and Judal had no choice.
"Hey." Judal called out. You don't go to Sindria anymore right."
"I don't have a choice since I stopped doing my fortune." The blond replied.
"That's good." Judal thought.
They finally appeared at Alibaba's apartment and like Kouha did Judal also had a surprised look on his face.
"You live here." He said. It's so tiny."
"Can't be helped since it's only me living here." Alibaba said as he got to the door. Thank you for the walk home." The blond bowed then went inside his apartment.
"Still, its small even for one person." Judal thought as he started heading back home.
The next day a rumor was spreading around town. The rumor was something that was unheard of.
"The rumor must be fake." Judal said. He was used these kind of rumors.
"Some rumors did some true." Kouha said.
"But this is different compare to the others." Koumei said. Kouha, Judal and Koumei had just arrived to work. They were talking about the recent rumor that was around town.
"Could the Prince of Balbadd be alive." Kouha said. Alibaba-kun is also from Balbadd, maybe he knows."
"He's from there." Judal said.
"Yea, when I asked but he gave me a weak expression like he didn't care."
"Maybe it's a deep wound.." Koumei said. Kouha shook his head to answer that Koumei was wrong.
"He acted like it was nothing."
Just than the blond entered the restaurant.
"Have you heard of the rumor?" Kouha asked.
Alibaba didn't have a choice since all the town people were talking about since he got out of his apartment.
"I heard." Alibaba said with a weak expression on his face.
"Have you met the prince when you were at Balbadd?" Kouha asked.
"I have." Alibaba said. He gave Kouha a weak expression every time he answered. Kouha stared at Alibaba with an angry look.
"You should give a better face when answering." Kouha pouted. The blond was confused by the words Kouha said. He didn't understand what the older boy ment.
"What is the prince like?" Koumei was the next to answer.
"A prince who would always look up into the night sky." Alibaba replied. The three looked at each other in confusion.
"If he was alive today he would be thinking about getting his kingdom back to their former glory."
"You sound like you want to go back to Balbadd." Judal said.
"I do." Alibaba replied back. But if I go back now there is nothing waiting for me there."
"That's true." Kouha said. Since nobody lives there anymore and everything is in runes."
"If the prince was alive he would probably be around Alibaba's age." Koumei said connecting the time when the kingdom got attack to now. He would also be living a normal life."
"Is this what they call normal?" Alibaba thought.
