She put her thumbs on the inner side of each cube and pushed outwards. Instantly, the latch in the middle flipped open.
----Chapter 4----
The front door closed, and footsteps started to approach at a brisk speed.
Panicking, she was confused about what she should do. Open the box now?!.............but what if he sees me looking in it?!?....I might not have another cha-...... without another thought; she shoved the box under his bed and swiftly closed the wardrobe doors shut.
"Saskia, you still in here?" As he walked through the door, he just saw her bouncing into an upright position with her hands behind her back.
".............What did you just do?" Saskia had the most innocent face on, adding a big grin, almost too innocent......
"Noooooooothing!"
"Why are you standing like that?"
"I felt like it!" She flashed him an even bigger grin, then without letting him say anything more, she says possibly a bit too enthusiastically:
"I need the toilet!!" She legs it out of the room and further down the corridor into the bathroom and closes the door shut.
...............................She's getting weirder and weirder................. Kai took a look around the room, she must've done something. He pulled out his table drawers and examined the contents. ...........Nothing missing here......... He looks through his document tray on the side of the desk. ................All here.............. Turning around, he inevitably spots the one thing out of place. In between the doors of the wardrobe, a little part of his suit was caught out. Being the neat and organized person he naturally is, getting his suit caught in the doors is definitely out of the question. He pulls open the doors and looks into the space, moving through each suit, he studies them with carefully. Finding nothing, he looks at the top compartment of the wardrobe, nothing had been moved, she wouldn't be tall enough to reach there anyway. Kneeling down, he looks beneath the suits, at the bottom of the wardrobe......
Sassy was washing her hands in the bathroom sink, since she was in there she might as well do something useful. And being hygienic is always a useful thing. Hm........When can I go in there again.......? I was –so- close!!....... She twisted the tap, stopping the water. She hopped off the stool and goes over to a hanging towel to dry her hands. ...............What if he actually finds out??? Maybe he would then lemme see what's inside that furry box..........
"SASKIA!!!"
She literally jumped and nearly pulled the towel off the rack. Heavy footsteps vibrated on the floor boards, each step became louder and much heavier, pounding into the ground. She had to step back quickly, the door literally flew open and standing at the frame, was her very, -very-, EXTREMELY pissed off Brother. He walked up towards her and knelt down; he placed his hands on each of her shoulders in a not-so-gentle-grip.
"Did you touch it?!?!" She only trembled in his grasp, before she could even answer in her state of shock; his hold on her shoulders grew tighter.
"Saskia!! Did you touch it?! Answer!!!" She winced in the slight pain; she was starting to be afraid. Kai would literally kick the guy's ass if he/she had injured her in any way big or small, but she never thought that he would ever be one to injure her.
"Godamnit!! ANSWER ME!!!" He roughly shook her, she whimpered in fright.
"T-Touch what....?" Her eyes were glinted with tears, while looking at Kai's, she only saw anger.
"DID you. Or did you NOT. TOUCH what was inside that box?!" He spoke every word clearly, clear and sharp as daggers. It was as if the words were stabbing at her heart. Shaking in fear, tears started to roll down her cheeks, her voice started to shake with every word she spoke.
"N-no K-ai........" He only stared back at her, watching her as the silver tears slowly traveled down her cheeks, how she was shaking in fear in his hold. But his expression soon changed, for the worse. He gritted his teeth, and took hold one of her hands.
"Come with me! NOW!" He didn't give her much choice; he literally yanked her out of the bathroom and pulled her along the corridor, holding onto her hand.
"K-Kai! It hurts!" More tears fell down her cheeks, she had to run or get dragged. Eventually, he pulled her into his room and let go of her hand. She instantly clutched her squashed hand and held it close to herself; she looked up and was faced with the same pissed off Kai. He pointed at the black box, now sitting comfortably on his desk.
"Did you touch or SEE what was inside that box?!" Saskia shook her head furiously.
"I asked you a question Saskia!! I expect an answer BACK!!"
"N-no I didn't touch o-or see wh-what was inside th-that box K-Kai!" She didn't dare cry out loud, Kai had already caused her pain, she wouldn't risk making him even angrier. He knelt down and pulled her closer towards him, so they were face to face. Literally.
"Don't you ever. EVER. TOUCH that box, or OPEN it. Understand?!" Saskia sniffled, all the tears blurring her vision.
"UNDERSTAND?!"
"Y-yes Kai........." She kept trying to force back the tears and sniffles, but they still came out; she was like a sad, lost puppy. And Kai saw this.
".............MY GOD! What the FUCK am I doing?!" He let go of her hand and punched the nearest wall.
"FUCK!" He put his hand over his face. Silence consumed the room, Saskia just stood and stared. Her last tears slowly rolled down her red cheeks, hands still clasped together, she didn't know what to do.
"............Fuck this." Kai instantly snatched up his keys on the side of the table. He reached for his leather jacket hanging off the wall and proceeded to put it on. He looked at Saskia while doing so.
"...........I'm going out, don't come in here, and don't look in here. Understand?!" Saskia nods.
"Now SCRAM!" She instantly pulls open the door and runs out to the corridor. Kai walks out of the door soon after and slams it shut, without looking back he walks out of the front door.
Saskia stood there alone.
There was no noise; there was almost a creepy feeling about the house. She walked into the living room, she looked around the place like it was the first time she saw it. She was still in the after-shock, she felt lost, scared, and abandoned. She walks over towards the couch and sits in the middle, pressing the remote button, the TV flickers on. She pulls the nearest pillow and hugs it, she wasn't concentrating on the TV, she only used it for its sound. It was like something in the background, something to keep her safe, normally that something would be Kai, but he already walked out and left her. A tear rolled down her right cheek.
"..............Kai...................." She started to cry silently into the pillow.
