family secret (Haylen)

My mother thought for a moment.
"I don't know the company's name, but the guy he bought it from... Adrian Hanson. Didn't like him." she said.

Thomas nodded as he wrote the name down, "We will look into him." he replied

Angela nodded and then looked at me. I have been watching them quietly, still not knowing what to think right now.
"I hope you'll find him. For my sake and yours." my mother said to Thomas.

Thomas nodded, seeing the look in Angela's face, he then got up and walked to the door

I lay my hand on my mother's shoulder. "We'll find him. I promise." I told her. She only nodded. She told me not to be mad at my father and I said I wasn't and then followed after Thomas.

Thomas was half way to the elevators by this time

"Tom!" I called after him, not being that fast yet. I sounded a little worried.

Thomas stopped and looked at her, "Yes?" he asked

I quickly caught up to him, giving him a slight bit worried look. "Just wanted to catch up..." I said, catching my breath. "You okay?"

Thomas nodded, "I am, you?" he asked

"I will be, when this is over." I said, but didn't look at him.

Thomas nodded in reply, "Lets go then" he replied

I nodded and walked down to the elevator next to him, staying quiet, a side that I didn't show often.

Thomas looked at her while waiting for the elevator, "I'm sure our father is okay."

I looked at him a little surprised.

Thomas looked at her, "What is it?" he asked

"Nothing. Just surprised how easily you picked up on that." I replied honestly.

Thomas nodded as the elevator doors opened

I got into the elevator, looking at him.
"C'mon big bro, I wanna find that Adrian guy and show him what it means to mess with us." I said, in a quiet tone though.

Thomas smiled abit, then nodded as he got on the elevator

I gave him a small smile back.
"Still kinda strange."

Thomas nodded again, "Aye, but I never knew our father or my mother." he replied

"I know... but I think you're already the best brother I could have." I replied, looking at him. "We've been watching out for each other right from the start... that's not gonna change, right?"

Thomas looked at her, "That will never change" he replied

I smiled a little more. "At least you already like your sis."
