FULL NOVELXO Chapter 18: Life of leisure
"Shamelessness is limitless"
***************************************************
Shenni welcomed Severus.
"Have a seat. We were just going to have our lunch. Do you want to join us?". Shenni asked politely but as soon as Gemmi heard what Shenni said his expressions soured.
He glared at Shenni but Shenni totally disregarded him. Severus saw the whole exchange but didn't bother. Instead, he smiled and asked for food.
"Sure. If you both are comfortable"
"No, we arent"
"Yes we are"
Both the brothers said at the same time. The atmosphere suddenly turned awkward and Shenni passed a dangerous glare to Gemmi.
Gemmi shivered. In his 26 years of life, he had hardly seen Shenni angry or giving him glares. But he knew better than anyone else that Shenni, who always looked shy and reserved was totally the opposite of his personality when he became angry.
He very well remembered the day when he stole money from an old lady and left her in panic. He happily came home that day and even boasted about having scrumptious dinner for that night. Shenni, who was a shy guy for the first time in his life, beat him. He gave him solid punches and asked about the origin of money. Gemmi, who was stiff scared spilled the beans receiving more punches.
That day Shenni made him apologize to that old lady. Recalling all the encounters Gemmi's spine turned stiff and he pathetically smiled. "I mean to say that, No, we aren't uncomfortable. Not at all. Please have lunch with us"
"Aye, Thank you very much for your hospitality", Severus thanked them.
Shenni served everybody. Severus and Shenni made few talks in between the dinner whereas Noworry and Gemmi kept their mouth shut. Noworry was hell bored whereas Gemmi felt like he was sitting on pins and needles. He actually came back from the gate of hell.
They finished their lunch fastly and soon Gemmi served them tea.
"You guys, there was no need for serving so much. Come have a seat. I came here to chat with you guys, not for food." Severus spoke.
Gemmi and Shenni obediently sat across the table.
"So, did you used the trick which I told you?", Severus asked with a grin.
As soon as Shenni heard he blushed and apparently he was embarrassed. Whereas Gemmi chirped like a bird. "Yes, Yes, we used the trick which you told us. Damn man, that trick nearly doubled our income. We are very grateful to you for this help", Gemmi bowed in gratitude.
"Nice, I am very happy that you made good money", Severus said humbly.
Shenni cleared his throat and said," We don't want leisure, we just want simple food and shelter for living, after all, Simple living is the key to happiness"
"Who said I don't want a life full of leisure? F*CK YOU!!! I want to live a royalty life Shenni", Gemmi argued back.
"SHUT THE F*CK UP. IT'S EITHER MY WAY OR HIGHWAY GEMMI", Shenni said through gritted teeth. His conscience was already pricking his heart because of the trick they played on simple peoples, and here his brother was bragging about it shamelessly. He was literally the preacher of the quote,' Shamelessness is limitless"contemporary romance
"Severus, earlier you said that you want to discuss something with us? What is it?", Shenni asked curiously.
"Ahaaa…. Yes. Firstly, did you do what I told you to do?" Severus asked seriously.
Shenni rows furrowed as soon as heard the question. He thought a bit and later his expressions turned ugly. "Yeah, we did. Do you really want to know about that?"
"Yes I do", Severus said calmly but this time there was no smile.
"Okay if you say so. Gemmi and I both traveled to remotes places of this city and interacted with the old peoples and the Scholars. We haven't even exchanged our information because we thought that this information may be something which is very important to you so we didn't even breathe about this matter". Shenni explained in detail.
