Aaron was looking at Aurora who was grumbling in a weak voice.
Her entire body is in pain ever since she woke up this morning.
When aunt May saw Aurora's state when they went to have breakfast in the morning. She asked for an explanation of how she got the bruises and do they have to go to the doctors or not.
Aurora told May a BS story she cooked up on the spot, about something like Aaron was being bullied in school. Since he was physically weak some jealous bullies were ganging up on Aaron. Fortunately, Aurora arrived right on time before they could hurt Aaron. Furious seeing her brother being bullied, she beat up the bullies but in the process, she also got hurt.
It wasn't that bad yesterday but after waking up today her whole body was hurting. End of BS.
After listening to Aurora, May was furious. She wanted to go to school and make a formal complaint to the school. Her nephew was getting bullied and her niece got hurt, are they teaching violence at school or something? May furiously said with a loud voice.
Telling May that she wasn't hurt that badly that she only needs to go to the hospital for a check-up.
Aaron told May that Aurora already took some pain meds for pain relief and the bruises will slowly heal in a week or two.
Aurora also asked May not to tell their parents. If they learn something like this, they will go ballistic on the school and will needlessly worry.
After some convincing May relented and decided to not tell their parents.
Now both at their room.
Aaron just finished changing into different clothes.
"Take some time off, you can't go to school for at least a week." Aaron said to the grumbling Aurora who was complaining about the pain, it still bearable she doesn't have to skip school etc etc.
Sighing, she carefully sat on the bed.
"Cant you make something for me? Like those hidden blades from that game, you have been playing all week. They look cool and quite handy certainly can replace my knives and daggers, what do you think?" Aurora said looking at Aaron.
Aaron's eyes sparked with a sudden idea.
But he frowned soon after, he looked at Aurora and said
"We dont have any resource to make such things. It really is not a bad idea, but we are poor AF and we dont have the necessary equipment to make such things." Seriously said after thinking about what Aurora said.
"But for now, I dont have much time. So stay home while I go to school."Aaron said turning around grabbing his backpack and started walking towards the door.
He looked back at Aurora and gave a gentle smile.
"Take care of yourself, while I'm at school. If you need anything aunt May is here, she can get it for you and dont forget to take your meds. Bye, sister!" Aaron said before leaving the room.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
At School.
"So you are telling me, that Aurora got hurt beating up some bullies who were bullying you?" Erisviel asked Aaron, who was sitting on their usual spot in the old court.
Erisviel was looking at Aaron with a look that was saying 'Can you at least make up a lie that is believable!'
Ian who sitting beside them also looked at Aaron with a disgusted face.
Both of them stared at Aaron for a minute before they sighed simultaneously.
"Okay, we will not ask you anything about how and why she got hurt. Just tell us, is she okay? nothing serious right?" Ian said to Aaron looking worried and concerned about Aurora's health.
"Thank you! really! both of you for your concerns, she is fine. She only got some bruises, which will heal in a week. You guys can go home and visit her after school." Aaron smiled and was touched by their concerns and worries.
"Anyway, how are you guys today. Ian, you dont look too good though? Did something happen or anything wrong?" Aaron asked Ian who looked tired and was a bit down.
Ian sighed and replied to Aaron in a tired voice.
"The club has put my name on to the competition that is going to happen in April. Its the National Martial Art Competition of our Country that happens Every three years." Slumping his shoulders and looking haggard Ian told Aaron about why he is feeling so down.
"Isn't that a good thing? You are one of the best fighters I know. So why are looking so down? instead of being happy?" Erisviel said looking at Ian.
"I'm happy, it's just that instead of putting my name into the 12-14 years old group, they signed me up for the 16-18 years old group. I'm confident that I can fight and get some good results, but I'm not that confident of winning the whole Competition of the 16-18 year old group." Ian told both of them about his worries and complained about the Martial Art Club and the competition.
"You dont have to worry much. You are already strong enough to compete with that age group. Even Aurora was thinking about this and was about to go secretly ask that captain of yours to put your name into that group today. Fortunately, she doesn't have to do that anymore since your captain already signed you up for it." Aaron laughed also told Aurora through their telepathic connection.
Ian hearing Aaron made a shocking face and was glaring daggers at him. Instead of comforting him or encourage him, both siblings were making fun of him? and they wanted to secretly sign him up for the 15-18 year old category!!!
Erisviel looked at both of them, who are making fun of each other bickering about nonsense.
She looked at her wristwatch and frowned.
"Why hasn't Nyx arrived yet in school?" Erisviel said looking at the time. Nyx is never late, in fact, she is the person who arrives first before everyone else.
Hearing Erisviel mention Nyx he suddenly remembered.
He looked at Erisviel and said "Oh! Nyx isn't here at Country O at the moment. She called me a few hours ago and told me, she left for Country Z and will be staying there for the week. She will come back after the weekend.
Ian and Erisviel learned about Nyx and they both asked Aaron, if he knows anything about the matter why Nyx left the country so suddenly?
Scratching his head and making a weird face, he looked at both of them and sighed before saying.
"Nyx said she is going to visit her fiancé in Country Z."
Erisviel and Ian both looked at Aaron in shock.
They both screamed at the same time.
"What the hell?!!"
