I cut the bloody steak as IRA, my uncle, looks at me smiling.

"What?" I scoff.

"Nothing." He smiles.

"I don't know why are you like this."

"It's just ... How long do we know each other?" He asks.

"Since I was born." I shrug.

"Yes. I was six and you were such a cutie. But the point is you always tell me everything.

Am I too old for you to talk to now?" He looks at me.

I rub my eyes. "Of course not. I just don't think it's important enough.

It's stupid."

"I'm listening." He smiles.

I sigh."it's just ...this case is getting to me

I thought i can keep a confident image but my nerves are on the edge.

The other day I slapped my hook up date."

"Slapped him?"

"Yeah, he started talking about me being in jail.

You know it's all over the internet.

And I just got scared and anxious.

I felt bad for hitting him. But i felt worse knowing people are seeing me as a criminal."

"A little fraud isn't the same as murder.

People are doing every day. Just don't get cought."

"Well, i did"

"Not yet. They didn't rove anything. They are just making a big fuzz about it.

It will be fine.

Is the other lawyer good?"

" He's a no name. Quite young."

"So a loser. What's his name. I'm going to look him up."

"Caspian Gray." I let him name slip off my tongue.

"Why are you smiling?"

"What?" I blink.

"You said his name and smiled. Oh my god. You are such a fuck boy

Are you into him?"

"No." I shake my head. "I just ... I want to know my enemy."

He's too mysterious. I like having control.

"Dion just don't be too stupid. And when you want to be.

Tell me."

"I know what I'm doing.

Now something else. Mom wants to do some garden party."

"Yeah, she told me"

"I don't want to go." I whine and sigh.

"Me neither. Being the youngest is awful.

They all want to lecture me in life."

"Mom does the same to me. I think she sees you as her son more than a brother.

So, are you going or ... ?"

" I don't have a partner at the moment and they will all give me those looks of pity.

I hate it. I don't want to explain it to them."

"Don't even mention that. Mom keeps pushing me into wedding.

Too bad we are related. We could have been each other's fake date." Stupid family.

" If we find someone to give us company then we will go. And if not then we will make an excuse."
