Crazy?

(Asaka Point of View)

When we get to my place, I start heading inside while Frey follows me inside. I start looking for my cutie. He is in the living room still watching some cartoons. He looks so cute. I should just keep him here and never let him leave me. I end up walking up beside him before he sees me. He pauses what he is watching and looks up at me.

"Did you fix whatever you were needed for?"

"Yes, I did. It was just some common criminals on the run."

"That's good. That it was easy that is. Not the criminal."

I wonder if he doesn't like criminals. If that's the case, I will have to be safe and I really should get back into working there. Even if I have no use for it at the moment. It will keep my secret safe and I should be able to protect him more without it being weird. I wonder if the weights scared him from how much I normally lift. He doesn't look like he works out often so maybe. I hope not. "So what were you watching?"

"It's a Slovenian cartoon. I used to watch it a lot when I was younger and I found it again so I thought I would watch it. It is in Slovenian so you won't understand it."

I smile at him. So it's for the memories then. "Well, you can go back to watching it. I'm going to get Frey settling in for the night."

I see him look behind me. Did he not see them before? "Who are they?"

"They are my younger sibling." I see the shock on his face and I can feel how Frey is looking at me. I normally keep it a secret so no one can use it against us but it seems right to tell him. After all, if I want him to be mine, he should know my family, after all, I know his family. Sure I haven't met them yet but I know where they are and who they are. Well her dad and sister are harder but I know more than most. "I should let you get back to your show." I motion for Frey to follow me as I head to the room that I have set up for them. When we get to their room, they speak.

"You are crazy for him. You haven't told anyone that we are related and then some man comes along and suddenly we are related again. What is up with that?"

I pause for a second. "I'm not crazy about him, I just don't want to lie."

"Then what are you going to say when he asks what you do for work?"

"I will tell him that I am a police officer. After all, I already have."

"So you are fine with lying to him."

"That was to keep him safe so he isn't scared of me."

"And what are you going to do when your emotions get the best of you?"

I pause for a moment as I try to stay calm. "I won't be with him. You just rest. I'm sure you need it." I walk out of their room before they can respond. 

I walk back into the living room. I'm not crazy for him, I just want him by my side at all times and I will do anything for him so that he is by my side. I don't care what it is, as long as it makes him happy. I see my darling watching his show. It actually looks interesting. I really should learn so I can speak his native language to him and so I can watch this with him. It seems to make him happy after all and then I can know what he was raised on. Sure, I could just put on English subtitles but that doesn't show how much I care. Plus, that might mess him up. After all, he is hearing his native language so I'm sure he just wants to keep hearing it with no other distractions. I wonder if there is a website that could help me learn the basics fast. I pull out my phone and I start looking. I find a website. I look through it before downloading it. I put my phone in my pocket. I sit down next to him as I try to understand what they are talking about. It is a kid show so I can understand some of it but not all of it. The show seems to be learning about the world so some words do have pictures so I could start learning now. I wonder where he found this. I might be able to find it and watch it on my own so if he does talk about it, I can understand it more. I can start really learning when he goes to bed. After all, I'm sure that if I surprise him with it then he can see how much I care and love him. No, I need to get myself together. I can't just tell him that I love him. Not yet at least.
