CHAPTER 220: A LETTER TO HARRY

* * * 

Paris INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT

It was the day Steven had to fly back to New Jersey. Nina and Jessica send him off along with Albert at the airport.

"Goodbye, bro!" Albert cheerfully bids goodbye to him.

Of course, Albert is happy that he can finally hang out with Nina without a rival. And Steven understood this: the reason he is glaring at him. 

Though Steven knows who Nina likes. The thought of this guy to spend more time with her has made him jealous. 

"Don't call me bro because we are not brothers!" Steven snapped out he frowned at Albert, who smiled ridiculously. "And why are you here?" 

"Heh. Just in case when you plan to kiss Nina? I am here to block you, so I am watching you." Although he grins, Albert's voice is threatening.

Nina instantly blushed upon recalling the incident the other time. Until now, it still gives her a shock.

'Why this guy needs to bring that up! I tried to forget it completely!' she thought to herself, wanting to smack Albert on his head.

Meanwhile, Steven was also shocked at hearing this from Albert. It worries him that Nina remembers it, and she will get angry at him again. He admits that it was wrong. But he wants to convey his feelings to Nina. He truly is shameless, but he is determined to win her heart.

Steven grabbed Albert by the shirt, he sneered at him in a low voice, "Shut up! Why would you bring it up? You are just jealous!"

"Why would I?" Albert rose a brow. And he is lying. He is jealous and wants to kiss Nina. But he won't force her or surprise her with a kiss out of the blue.

That is still his principle in pursuing Nina. She is not a typical girl who would kiss any man she crosses. He queried a few Asian students back in England. And the like of Nina, who was raised by a strict family value and tradition. She is a conservative woman.

Somehow, he could see Nina, who has a great value about love. Albert thought to himself.

He shoots a glare at Albert, Steven shifts his attention toward Nina. He smiled awkwardly at her that his foolishness has recalled.

"Um, so! I'm going now!" he said to Nina. "I will regularly send you a letter, Nina!" 

"Sure, Steven." Nina beams. She was hesitant to relay the letter she prepared for Harry. "Um, Steven…"

She honestly was shy to ask Steven a favor. But she wants her letter to arrive immediately and heard a reply from Harry. "Can you hand my letter to Harry? I mean, I have a gift for him, so I write a few words." 

Nina gives Steven a long small box with an envelope where she put her letter inside.

"A gift for Harry?" Steven wrinkled his forehead. Jealousy struck him, and he was curious about what is the content of the letter.

Nina replied. She takes out two more boxes from her bag. "Yes, a small token of friendship! And I have for you too and Albert!" 

"Huh? Even that guy?" Steven rose a brow, glancing at Albert, who instantly winked at him.

He rolled his eyes before he turned to Nina. "Is it we who are supposed to give you a gift?" 

Nina laughs and explains both to Steven and Albert. "It's alright! You guys are studying hard. And Albert will take a BAR exam soon, so I want to give you guys something you all can use daily." 

Nina handed the box to Steven and Albert. They immediately opened it and were delighted to see the gift Nina bought for them.

"Whoa! These are a limited edition!" Albert burst out. "And my name is engraved on it! Thank you, Nina! I will only use it during the exam! After that, I will keep it forever!" 

Steven rolled his eyes, listening to Albert. However, he will definitely do the same. He will only use these pens during his exams or important events. It will be like his lucky pen.

"Thank you, Nina! I will keep it like the most expensive treasure that I have," said Steven. 

Nina laughs, she phrases them. "It was just a pen. But I'm happy that you guys like it." 

"What? I don't like it, but I love it!"

Steven shook his head. Obviously, Albert just wanted to impress Nina.

Not that long, all the passengers that bound to a flight for Newark, New Jersey was called out. Nina is waving at him, he waves back while he follows the crowd toward the gate. 

They were already in the sky and Steven feels restless in his seat. It's all because he was curious about the letter Nina sent for Harry.

He is debating within himself; conversing between his devil and angel as his conscience whether to read the letter or not. 

And in the end, Steven opens the letter. 

After he read it, he crumpled the paper and clenched both of his fists. 

Nina confessed to Harry. She also mentioned him and Albert, whom she rejected. Nina only thinks of Albert as a good friend while he is like a brother to her. 

Like a brother? 

He could not accept that! He loves Nina! Everything he could do for her! He will wait! But Nina only wants Harry as her boyfriend. 

Steven rose from his seat and went to the lavatory. He tore the letter into pieces before he threw it into the trash bin. 

At this moment, he is determined to be the villain until Nina becomes his. 

~~~~~ 

Harry lifted his head when the door of his room opened. 

"Steven?" 

"Hey, bro! Did you miss me?" He asked Harry with a wide smile on his face. 

Harry twitches his mouth, he blurts out kiddingly, "Why would I?" 

Steven laughs. He dropped his body onto his bed and stretched both his arms and legs. "Ah, I could finally rest my back!" 

Harry listens to Steven groaning, rolling on his bed. He is waiting for Steven to share anything, but his brother remains closing his eyes. He wonders if he falls asleep instantly after a long flight.

"So, how was it?"

Harry asked Steven.. Nervously, he anticipates his twin brother's reply.
