Chapter 7

Carl? "Imagine there are two Carl, and two Rex. Draw the four together. I want to see how you put them together!" Edward furrowed his eyebrows while? Carl grabbed his shoulders? "And don't tell Rex okay? It'll be between you and me..when can you draw it?" Edward raised an eyebrow, not agreeing yet. "Well, since I like drawing, I'll do it," he said, bored. "But..." Carl sighs? "There's a charge?" Carl laughed lightly at his sudden spontaneity, then said, "Agreed." The bell rang, signaling the start of the school day. He entered his classroom and looked at Rex; Still that shaggy hair on top of his head! "But Rex, you're his older brother, how does he treat..." He was silent when Carl pulled him from behind by his clothes; Rex looked at Carl in surprise, especially as he caught a glimpse of the sharpness on his face. Carl in a sharp voice, looking at Rex's face? "If you consider me your brother, he has nothing to do with it." Rex blinked innocently, "He's my first friend here, so..." "You really do consider me a friend, which was great!" Carl dragged him outside? "I'm going to borrow it for a bit, brother." He said the last word wearily, and then walked out of the classroom, closing the door behind him. Rex bored? "The class has already begun!" Carl? "Louis..." Lewis looked at him silently and said to the first, "Rex... not my brother." Carl slowly opens the lab door to make sure no one is inside and then enters with Luis. Lewis? "What do you want here?" Carl? "Confirming who Rex is; I'm serious about him not being my brother" Lewis turned and left the lab, and said with boredom, "You can visit me in the evening; that will be fun." Carl was silent watching him and then walked behind him? "You simply agreed?" Lewis? "I've got something to talk to about too, so you can visit me, I'll send you my home address and we'll make a date." Carl? "Well...don't tell Rex that okay? I'm just confused about it..." They arrived at the classroom and unfortunately were imprisoned; And here they are in a shabby, narrow storeroom they are sitting in, and the door is locked on them. Lewis sighed, "That's the behavior of a hard-working student; you must have changed since Rex..." Carl? "Well.. he just said half an hour because I'm hardworking." Lewis? "It's not something you're proud of anymore!" It was quiet for a moment before Lewis sighed and started talking? "You've been very calm.. perfect as far as I've known.. your grades are always high.. you speak so tactfully and smile to everyone.." Carl mumbles? "Was that good?" Lewis? "Of course! Everyone loved you! You're the school's role model!" Carl? "Well.. I'm still that guy who hates friendships, but everyone has a quiet edge.. that's what I think.. and also..." He walked toward a corner of the storeroom and pulled out from the rubble a computer, opened it, and handed it to Louis. Carl? "I prepped it because I knew something like this might happen, so I want Rex's ID..." Lewis? "H.. well...." He looked at Carl.. he always wanted to get to know him because of his idealism, he feels that he is a special person.. But he changed a month ago... since Rex came along he's been nervous and hot-tempered... Or has he always been like that and was just calm and diligent? Carl? "I won't interrupt you. When the professor comes to get us out, tell me your summary..." Lewis sighed and started working on the computer without saying a word. [Louis searched for the duration of the confinement while I was bored but I haven't said a word since he started.. Lewis was known for his love of electronics, so I wanted to take this point in him, and after we parted.. He simply left with a sweet smile, "I won't talk to you now." I really didn't get any information from him! On our way home, he was laughing and having fun while talking to Rex, who puts his hand from time to time in front of his mouth with his constant yawns, and the edge of his eyes was weeping from sleep. As I watched them silently, Edward stood beside me, and agreed with me that I would meet him tonight, and he would show me the painting I ordered this morning! I am now in trouble; I just got back from my part-time job and... I promised two and I don't know who to go to first? Lewis Shaggy or Edward the Short?] Carl closed his notebook and went to his closet, changed his clothes into a plain light suit in pastel colors, and then opened the door to see Rex sitting comfortably tapping his finger on the table. He ignored him as usual, but when he reached the door he spoke the first.. Rex? "Carl, wait! You're not going anywhere!" Carl furrowed his eyebrows and said sharply? "And who are you to command me!" Rex? "You're being chased by X! He might attack you at any moment!" Carl was bored, as he opened the door, getting ready to go out? "You can guard me if you're afraid of my death!" He left indifferent. Rex mumbles, rubbing his head wearily? "Damn it, he was afraid and now he's indifferent!" He sighed and ran outside and...didn't see Carl! He turned on the nearby roads and did not see him or know which way he took.. He swallowed with difficulty and then started running while shouting his name. It was very dark and rather mild in that deserted neighborhood where you could hardly hear any sound except from the breathing of a sixteen-year-old boy whose face was sweating, and he put his arm to his forehead tiredly, while he received another blow from the whip from the one standing in front of him. X muttered in pain as he tried to catch his breath. The subject laughed when Carl finally spoke "X! What a name I like!" Carl furrowed his eyebrows in pain? "What do you want from me?" He approached him and muttered coldly, "I want to kill you..." Carl bluntly? "Then kill me! You've been torturing me for a while. So get me out of all this and kill me!!" He laughed provocatively, "I didn't know you were so eager to die." Carl's chest was rising and falling as he gasped for breath, and some of his clothes had been torn from the beating. "Don't be cynical, do what you want, and set me free." "Where is he? I may guarantee your life if you exchange yourself for him..." Carl furrowed his eyebrows, saying, "It is not fair to replace someone with me... I will wrong him; but... who do you mean?" "The one who always helped you..." "Rex?" asked? Carl. The other was surprised? "Rex huh...that's his name, what a pathetic boy" became his name? Does this mean that his name is fake? X raised the whip and decided to hit him again? "Where is he? I know he.. lives with you! Where is the location?" They heard the sound of shattering the glass of the nearby window, and? Carl smiled slyly? "It seems you don't need to look for him." Rex rushes inside even though it's on the second floor, looking sharply at X and muttering coldly, "Sorry I'm late,? Carl." Carl? "It's okay with you!" Rex kicked X who raised his arm and while doing this they exchanged cold looks.. X smiled provocatively? "So Rex, huh?" "And it seems you liked the name X as much as Arles said," he said coldly. Carl furrowed his eyebrows, knowing that the other meant him; He rolled from under them when they approached him in the midst of their quarrel, and he picked up a stick, but he soon sat down on his knee, tired. X's eyes turned red as? Carl was surprised; He just got used to turning left..and noticed that Rex was also surprised.. The fists and kicks were fast and X's hits seemed quicker since his eyes had turned. X? "Do you not feel weak when someone rescues you?" With this sentence he wanted to provoke? Carl, but the other did not affect him, quite the contrary. Rex muttered coldly as his eyes toward X? "Stop gossiping and just run to your destination." Carl smiled weakly and stood with difficulty because of the pain and then walked outside hiding his pain with confident steps, a tear betrayed him that no one noticed.. a tear because he is much weaker than he shows.. returned home; Take a quick shower, take a sedative, jog, and he's decided to meet Lewis before Edward..! in Louis' house; He was crouched on the floor in front of his computer with headphones on his ears.. His hair was more messy than usual.. He was wearing teenage clothes with youth cartoon badges and tags on it. As well as the walls of his room full of posters and those tapes scattered here and there; And that desk full of comics, and the desk covered the other baggage In another corner is that TV and in front of it are all kinds of games.. The room was too messy to tell you it was a messy teenager who is fond of electronics and cartoons.. Only a six-year-old girl opened the door and said, "Louis, you have a guest, can I bring him here?" He did not answer her, because those headphones on his head prevented him from doing so. She smiled at him cheerfully? "You have a guest!" He smiled, too. "I don't like formalities; just let him in!" she ran out while he put the earphone back over his head with both hands; He smiled happily as he looked at his computer. Carl entered, and the child closed the door behind him; Carl stepped forward and threw a sack beside Louis containing some sweets, chips and chocolate bars; Then he threw himself on Louis' bed tired and exhausted, closed his eyes and gathered himself looking at Louis who pulled out a bag of potatoes to crunch in front of the computer "What did Lewis come up with?" Lewis lowered the voice as he looked at Carl. "Do you know that you were sold?" He said it in a very casual tone. Carl was shocked and upset; Then he furrowed his eyebrows in annoyance because Louis knew this, but he realized that searching for Rex might lead you to this. "I wanted his identity," he said annoyed, "I don't care about any other information... Also, it turns out that Rex isn't his name..." Lewis? "You may not believe me, but it has no name." Carl squinted his eyebrows? "Excuse me?" Carl? "What do you mean!?" Lewis goes back to the computer and says, "I got your dad's diary..." Carl's face seemed to show interest as he waited for the rest of the conversation. Lewis? "I'll read part of it in a month, okay?" Carl? "I hear you..." Lewis reads while Carl imagines his father's voice. A pathetic child has come to me; looking at him at first glance tells you that he is a homeless... His eyes were blank and he asked me a very strange request.. Sir, can you adopt me? I couldn't answer him, I didn't expect that there are children asking to be adopted by someone, usually they are just waiting.. His age, as it turned out later, is already eighteen; And when I was silent He said that he would not bother me and would buy me a house with everything in it.. He just wanted me to name it and attribute it to me! Then he asked for the house where Carl actually lives.. I was surprised by him saying I want him with me at home..
