I was on my way home, heading back to my home when my phone started to buzz inside my pocket, I wonder who is trying to reach me right now, I took out my phone from my pocket, as I saw the name written on the screen, I can feel the side of my lips go up in a wide smile, the name written on the screen was James, my brother, he hardly call me this days as if he has forgotten me already, we used to speak frequently before, but this days, he seemed to be tired of me or something, making the chase to get back his attention quite fun. “ your name and where you are calling from? ”, I asked him, backing the question up with a wide laughter, I can also hear his laughter over the phone, he definitely seems to find my act funny like always. “ Can i ask you for a favor?”, he asked me over the phone, “ Sure, anything for this over grown baby ”, I replied to him, making a joke out of the conversation, “ go to the station, I left a document there, which I am in need of right now, it’s on top of my desk, inside my office, I will text you the location to bring the documents”, he disconnected the call, as I received a message on my phone with an address on it. I don’t usually like going to that station, it’s one of the places where I am insecure off, whenever I arrive in there, everyone seems to focus all their attentions on me, as if they are waiting for something to go wrong, but if it comes to help my brother, I am willing to do anything for him, the way the officer’s look at me, I can tell that all their mind were full of lust, except for the lady officers who seems to just admire the sexy stature of my body, yes, I can proudly say that, because I worked for it. I looked around me to check whether I could see any taxi close by, and sure, I managed to see one, as I waved to it.


I was holding my phone, looking at the address to see whether I am almost there, I was dividing my attention along the way, I will look at the address of the house, then look at my phone, I continue that way till I realized that I have passed the house I was in search of, how is that possible, should i phone my brother, so he can direct me exactly to where he is, or should I just go back and check the houses which I passed, no, I think this is some kind of a challenge, and I love challenges, calling my brother would be making the quest easy. I turned around to check on the houses which I passed, oh, I think I am here already, the house is positioned at a half line, no wonder why I couldn’t see it before, I headed into the half line, in search of the address sent to me, “ hey, here I am”, I saw my brother waving both of his hands on the air, trying to show me exactly where he was, “ afternoon officer, how’s the deal going today? ”, I asked him, wearing a smile on my face, “ you know i am also a state agent, so it’s my Job to take care of the new comers in the resident ”, he said as he brought out a jotter from his pocket, and started writing down stuff, I have already brought for him what he needs, but i don’t want to go yet, it’s hard to catch up on him this days, so I have to give him a reason for me to stick around for a little while, “ do you need a little help from me, I can do a lot to help you with this hard Job ”, he looked at the back of the car, then looked at me, before taking a last look inside the house, I think he really needs it, though it’s so hard for him to admit, but I can see he really needs it, “ you don’t have to be shy little boy, just say the words ”, I taunted him.


He looked tired already, yet he doesn’t want to stop with the hard jobs, he is not quite strong like he used to be back in the days, he is quite old to continue pretending to be fit and young, “ just give it up jammy, you can never match my strength, you have to keep yourself in one piece for your princess at home ”, he immediately dropped the chair which he was carrying, and looked at me with shock in his eyes, he might have seen the look in my eyes and decided to start speaking, “ can you keep your mouth shut, you are too young to say such thing ”, both of us immediately burst out in laughter, James is definitely the funniest guy i have ever been with, he is now using my young look against me, which is so much funny, he continued to laugh, as He carried the chair He was carrying, and went inside the house, he doesn’t have a long time with him again, very soon I would start feeling bored and alone, because he isn’t always going to be here with me, he is just a human, just like the other people living around here with us. I can hear the sound of the car heading in towards the half line, I believe it’s the people who are going to live here, whom we are preparing the house for, the car stopped right behind my brother’s car, as I saw a woman come down from the car, followed by a young guy, this is probably her son, I think, I took my eyes away from them, as I called for James to come and greet with the new house owners.
