บท 43: THE AMORCELLI SIBLINGS

"There you are, come here!"

Santina's voice was like a waking call that pulled Mikael's soul back at the present time.

When he looked at the source of the voice, he saw that Santina was with her other siblings.

She stood almost a head smaller than her other brothers and sisters which made her stand out as she was the only one who did not share the good height.

At the same time, Santina also did not look like any of her siblings. It was as though they shared a different gene compared to her. While others had tawny skin and unusual height, Santina had fair skin. She was once told that it was because she took after their late grandmother who was actually half Spanish.

Santina may not share the same physical features as her other family members, but what they all have in common was their character.

Each of them had the same genuine warmth and graciousness. They all have the same keen intelligence and those were just some of the collective resemblances that Mikael could observe from Santina and her family.

However, that night, contrary to the usual air of merriment present in the family, they were gathered instead around the entertainment center of the living room.

Other than Santina, the first person that Mikael managed to recognized was Andrew. He was a year younger than Santina and he was the one who was responsible for overseeing the computer store chain of the family.

The woman on her right had his back on him so Mikael was not able to say for sure who she was but judging from the baby she was carrying in her, she was most likely to be Andrew's wife, Selene.

"Hi there, Mikael. I heard you are about to become a priest. Congratulations."

Sam, one of Santina's older brother greeted him as soon as the other party saw him. Sam actually had a twin brother named Dean. The two may appear casual and lax on the surface but they were actually MIT graduates and they were both computer engineers. 

What was fascinating about Santina's twin brother was that they were both married to a pair of sisters who were also twins just like them.

Harold, on the other hand, was not present that night.

The other party was the eldest as well as the one who oversees the family's properties. He was probably busy attending important business that was why he was not able to make it to his sister's birthday.

But while the eldest son was away, the eldest young miss of the Amorcelli household, on the other hand, was present.

Vicky was the one who singlehandedly handle the investor relations of the family and just like Santina, she was not married yet.

However, unlike Santina who no longer engaged herself in any romantic relationship with a guy ever since her fiancee's death, Vicky was different.

Due to the nature of her work, Vicky often got to know a lot of people from all over the places. Which in return exposed her to networks of connection and fine bachelors at the same time

She was quirky, funny, and startlingly intelligent and so that was why it was no wonder that many guys were smitten to her in general. She was the feminine version of a nation's husband.

She had been into a lot of relationships before. In fact, her family members had already lost count of how many guys she had been in a relationship with.

But whenever the topic of marriage was being brought up to discussion, she would always straight up reply to them that the thought of tying the knots was still out of her priorities.

บท 44: PRESS CONFERENCE

Mikael moved into the circle of Amorcelli siblings and they each greeted him with a warm smile. They even patted him on the back one after another.

At the same time, they also deliberately stepped aside to let him through until he was already standing next to Santina.

They urged him to sit next to her so the two of them could watch the hourly newsbreak together. All of them knew well enough that the two needed to hear the news more than anyone else in the house.

' The suspect is believed to be behind the killing of several young boys in the dumpsite specific at District 12. The alleged notorious killer was also said to leave his victims badly mutilated before disposing it to the said dumpsite. Bureau officials said that they purposely did not release details of the previous murders to avoid a panic in the community.'

The newscaster reported and soon after the camera focused on Daniel's heavily-foundation face.

"Look at his hair all perm into a curl as well as his thick makeup. Is he attending a press conference or an audition???"

Mikael commented with a sneer.

"Just let him be, Kel."

Santina chastised as she gestured him to listen closely instead to what the other party was about to say next.

"Our in-house investigators were truly excellent at having their job done. Actually they should get the credits instead of me."

Daniel said in his interview.

"Do you think they got the right one???"

Mikael leaned closer to Santina and whispered to her. The other party on the other hand replied in the same manner and murmured.

"I do hope so."

Then she rested her back at her seat and exhaled an exasperated sigh.

"For everyone's sake, I really hope so."

She added afterward with her eyes close.

After that short preview of Daniel's interview, the newscaster came back on the air to say that the full scoop of the story would be broadcast during the late evening news. But neither of them was listening anymore.

Mikael left Santina's house at around 11 o'clock because he and the other Amorcelli siblings had a lot to catch up, especially since Andrew and Selene just got home from abroad.

The couple sure had a lot of fun stories to tell to the point that Mikael almost forgot to mind the time and he ended up staying longer than he originally intended.

The family even offered to have him stay in one of their guest room, but Mikael refused them kindly. He preferred going back to his own dorm and sleep in the comfort of his bed.

Truth be told, Mikael was actually a light sleeper.

He slept at a dorm together with the other deacons like him and at any time in the night, he could tell if any of them were awake or had left their quarter.

His ears could pick up any tiny details especially during the night when everything else was dark; starting from the voices, down to the opening and closing of the door.

In fact, Mikael could even tell when someone was flushing the toilet down the hall and even the changes in the temperature were not able to escape his notice.

The other party found it quite disturbing at first, but over time, he had grown used to it. Santina even found this trait of his rather amusing because there were times when he was known to answer questions or joined conversations of other people in the same room, despite him being in the middle of his slumber.

Often times, Santina would actually entertain herself by asking the sleeping Mikael with her out of the box questions.

Mikael was not exactly sure if it was about stress, but he found himself unable to sleep on that particular night. After watching the interview that Daniel had regarding the alleged notorious killer of District 12, the other party had been relentless.
