He was afraid of what Kai could do once he tells him the reason why he was asking such a question. As known, there was no way Kai wouldn’t want to know the reason why he was asking such a question.
He was doubting Kai would keep to the promise he made never to tell their father about what was happening to him at school once he tells him the reason why he was asking such a question.
Kai might be like, ‘So after all this time that has passed, they’re still bullying you at school? The main bullying stopped at some point, but it had resumed again?
I’m having a feeling these things happening to you at school would never stop, they might keep happening until it gets to your graduation. And I can’t allow that, Ryan,
I’m sorry, I have to break the promise I made to you never to tell dad about what was happening to you at school. I’m doing this for your own good, I’m doing it to help you’.
Yes, Ryan was afraid Kai might be like this after he tells him the recent happenings at school. And Ryan didn’t want that, he didn’t want his dad to find out.
This was the real reason why Ryan was afraid to ask Kai the question…he’d finally acknowledged it.
He confirmed at some point that Kai wouldn’t dare betray him and break the promise he made to him never to tell their dad what was happening to him at school…but right now, Ryan was having too many doubts.
Kai was just staring at Ryan with that confused expression still plastered on his face. He was wondering why Ryan was finding it hard to trigger the conversation he wanted to have with him.
He was wondering but couldn’t find the answer to why he was finding it hard to do so. And it was only making him more confused.
He had asked himself the same question multiple times in his mind, but finding an answer to it was just impossible, there was no way he wouldn’t become more confused…
Ryan was also staring at Kai, and words couldn’t just flow out of his mouth due to the fear he was having.
“I can’t just seem to understand you, you’re making me so confused. Why is your mouth sealed? Why can’t words just flow out of your mouth? I mean, you brought me here to have a particular conversation with me, but for minutes now, you haven’t said anything”. Kai stated with his gaze focused on Ryan.
By now, Ryan had already decided he wouldn’t be asking Kai the question due to the fear of what could happen when he asks him the question.
He only planned on staring at him until Kai leaves. He wasn’t happy with what he was doing, he wasted Kai’s time by bringing him here without asking him the question he wanted to ask him, which would then lead to a conversation.
..He knew what he was doing was wrong, but he just had to do it.
Kai’s confusion had already turned to annoyance by now, so he stood up from the bed and said to Ryan while glancing at him with annoyance in his face and tone of voice,
“Did you bring me here to waste my time on purpose? I did everything you told me to do, you told me you wanted to have the conversation in your room, I came to your room. You said we should sit on your bed, I sat on it,
And since then, words have been finding it hard to flow out of your mouth, you’ve just been staring at me. Minutes have passed, but you haven’t had the conversation with me, so what was the need of coming to your room?
You only wasted my time, and you know what? I’m furious at you”.
And after those words finished flowing out of Kai’s mouth, he began walking out of Ryan’s room until he finished walking out of it.
With the way he opened the door and closed it, anyone would be able to tell he was angry. He opened the door swiftly and slammed it…
Ryan was feeling so bad after Kai left, he knew what he did was wrong. But as said, he had to do it because of the fear he was having. After sitting on his bed for a few minutes glancing at space with a lot running through his mind, he laid on it.
‘Dylan might have discovered other ways to scare off bullies, his research might have yielded good results. I hope he’d truly discovered other ways to scare off bullies if there are some at all so he can relay them to me tomorrow, and we can begin implementing them immediately’. Ryan thought to himself after lying on the bed. Enjoy more content from empire
It didn’t take long for him to doze off after lying on the bed. Before that happened, thoughts had been running through his mind here and there.
******
Another day had arrived, Ryan had already gotten up from bed by now and began preparing for school. As he was preparing, he was hoping Dylan would have discovered other ways to scare off bullies.
He kept thinking about it nonstop. And even now that he was done preparing and was standing in front of the mirror glancing at his reflection, he was still thinking about it.
He was in his room, and the mirror he was standing in front of was also in his room. He was glancing at his handsome face in the mirror and also staring at how the robe he wore fitted him.
After he was satisfied with how much he’d glanced at his reflection in the mirror and wasn’t thinking anymore, he walked out of his room heading straight to the living room.
In fact, the main place he was heading to was the dining room. He knew the servants would have prepared breakfast by now and would have kept the plates of food on the dining table.
It was the usual, that was why he was sure they would have done so by now. They all needed to eat breakfast before leaving for their different destinations, that’s why it was said the main place he was heading to was the dining room…
He’d arrived in the living room by now, and since the living room wasn’t far from the dining room, all he needed to do was to glance at the dining room from where he was standing.
And just as he thought, the servants had already prepared breakfast…he could see plates of food on the dining table.
The servants had already taken their own share of the food along with the guards’ share, the ones on the dining table were for the Howell family. It didn’t take long for everyone in the Howell family to gather around the dining table.
And by now, they were already eating. Ryan noticed a kind of bad blood between him and Kai as they were eating, and this was because of what happened between them yesterday.
Yes, Kai was still angry at Ryan, and Ryan noticed it during the time they were eating. Kai didn’t glance at him once nor did he utter a single word to him.
Ryan knew he needed to apologize to Kai, but he wouldn’t be able to do so now since everyone was present in the dining room…he’d do so later.
Everyone in the Howell family was already done eating by now, and one after the other, they began leaving for their different destinations. The guard that rode Ryan to school yesterday was riding him to school right now.
And while Ryan was on the horse, and it was in motion, he was thinking about what he was thinking while preparing for school this morning and even after he was done preparing. He was thinking if Dylan was able to find other ways to scare off bullies.
..And he wasn’t only thinking about it, he kept hoping he was able to do so.
While thinking, he was also glancing around as usual as the horse was in motion. The guard kept putting the horse in motion until they arrived at Ryan’s academy.
Ryan didn’t waste time to come down from the horse. And after coming down from it, he glanced at other horses on the school compound. Yes, there were few other horses on the school compound apart from the one he just came down from.
He wasn’t the only one that got ridden to school with a horse. Some of the horses on the compound just arrived in it, so the kids sitting on top of them hadn’t come down from them yet.
But some didn’t just arrive in it, so the kids sitting on top of them had already come down from them just like him. After glancing at the horses and the people sitting on them to his satisfaction, Ryan began walking toward the building where his classroom was situated.
Seeing that Ryan was already walking away, the guard that rode him to school rode the horse out of the school compound…
