Drift Beyond Parallel : Chapter 9


Dusk has almost touches in when Tia had finally reaches her apartment. I’m back home earlier then expected.” Thought Tia to herself as she amble towards the elevator. For usually, Tia will stay out late at night going clubbing or to the beaches either with her friends or Ian.

However, after that horrendous incident, where Ian’s had noun that barbaric acts of lust, upon her had definitely barbs Tia with the wreath feelings of shocked, anger and sadness. “How could you Ian? You are like a brother to me..” whispered Tia sorrowfully as she try hard not to cry.

Tia took the key to unlock the front door, however surprisingly the door was already opened and there stood Luth smiling gleefully at her. “ You are back early kiddo” credited Luth.

Tia smile faintly as she headed straight towards her room and gently closes the door behind her. After placing her school bag under her study desk, she sat on the bed and begin to wept tearfully. “Luth must not find out about this..” thought Tia as she stood up and amble towards the bathroom to has a quick shower. After she’s done, she put on her night gown and then she brushes her half wet dangling hair, which carries the sweet scent of a rose. She realised her wavy honey blonde hair had almost grown and fallen beautifully  upon her ample bosom. While brushing her hair, she could smell something tasty has been prepared by Luth much to Tia’s  comfort. 

“Smells good..” said Tia as she prepared to set the dining table by placing the plates, folk and spoon on the table while Luth bring in the pot of mac and cheese, scooping an appropriate proportion for both their meals onto the plates.

“This is prep from the scratch not from those ready to eat frozen stuff..” noun Luth with a grin.

During dinner, Luth realised that Tia was unusually quiet. Despite Luth attempts to bring in the colour of humour infused in his conversation, Tia will either smile or nodded her head. Seeing this, Luth knew something upsetting could had happened to his beloved sister.

“Ian called me just now, asking about you, while you are showering I suppose. He asked if you are already at home? He sounds to be too persistent of wanting to know your current well being.” State Luth.

Tia looked away from Luth intense gaze as she focus her sight upon the fork which she’s holding to tightly in between her fingers.

“Tia is everything alright between the both of you?” Asked Luth with urging concerns marks in his tone.

“Yeah, everything’s fine. Just a little bit of mis understanding and hiccups here and there so there’s nothing much to worry about..” replied Tia grimly. “I will give him a call but not today, well probably I will just leave him a message in a day or two..” utters Tia. “Or not ever..” rant her inner voice.

“Tia, how should I said this.. well actually I’m rather concerned about your platonic relationship with this Ian. Firstly Ian is a guy, a men and they have needs.. the urge to..”

“Ewe Luth please stop talking to me about sex and stuff it’s gross and I’m begging you, don’t touch the topics of pregnancy..” 

“Well young lady, as I’m the head of the household, the acting father and mother of yours, therefore it is my responsibility to make sure you are aware of these  things..” noun Luth thoughtfully.

“Oh daddy.. I do google ..” cried Tia with a grin.

“Finally a smile..” thought Luth with thankful and relieve note cast upon his soul.

The warmth of laughter and bubbly conversation soon sets in blissfully between the two siblings. As Luth continues to bring in the topics of being the big daddy subject, Tia tease Luth to get himself a wife or something.


“Something? What do you mean by something?” Cried Luth with annoyance causing Tia to burst out laughing until her tummy hurts.

As they were both still engrossed chatting the nights away suddenly Luth cell phone vibrates indicating a message had just come in.

“Well my lady, may I take my stance for a moment..” state Luth as he stood up and gently give a curtsy to Tia.

“Yes you may, your grand highness..” replied Tia as she chuckles away.

“Am I that old..” asked Luth as he picked up his phone from the coffee table and set his eyes upon the messages.

“Please Luth I need your help. They are shipping my mum off to the other country within 24hrs to carry on with her trade…we are in a dire and hopeless state now. I can’t live without my mum or I shall end it all..” a desperation message from Uzair marks Luth with worrisome looks cast upon his intense and charmingly  bold features.

Tia notices that frantic look on his face as she stood up and usher herself closer towards him.

“I’ve got a plan.. just sent me the location..” replied Luth.

“Luth what’s happening? What’s going on?” Asked Tia anxiously.

“Not too worry kiddo.. I need to be out tonight.. you stay put here and please lock the door..” utters Luth as he gently placed his hand upon Tia’s shoulder and swiftly walk straight towards his room. 

With these words, he put on his watch upon his left wrist, took his wallet, phone and places them inside the pocket of his pants. In a brief, he run his fingers through his hair and quickly took his coat off from the hanger and puts it on.


“Don’t wait up on me Tia..get yourself a proper sleep..” utters Luth as he lightly peck his sister in between her forehead and walks out from their home.

Tia closed the door and locked it from inside..however Tia just couldn’t brush off that listless nerves which seems to be chilling her nerves much to her anguish..
