The time was already a few minutes past five in the evening, and Silas was surprised that Alex and Kim are yet to come back home.

He was about to go downstairs when he heard familiar sounds coming from the entrance door.

Soft footsteps sounds made its way upstairs and stopped at the entrance of Silas' room door.

The doorknob turned slowly and it opened slowly, and a loud voice came from the room behind the door.

"Boo!"

A startled sound came from behind the door.

"Haa!"

Silas couldn't help but laugh when he saw Alex's response.

"What were you trying to do?" Silas asked with a laugh.

"I thought you were tired and sleeping after coming back from your trip. I just wanted to check if you're awake," Alex replied, sulking, while feigning anger.

"Sorry for scaring you, okay?" Silas apologized with a smile, as he ruffled Alex's hair.

Alex nodded and hugged him.

"Welcome, brother. How was your trip?" He asked.

"It was fine. I'm going on another one tomorrow. I still have a lot of things I want to do?" Silas replied.

"Like what, brother?" Alex asked, and raised his head and looked into Silas' eyes.

"A lot of things. I will tell you when it's time, okay?" Silas said with a smile, as he caressed Alex's hair.

Alex heard Silas' response and nodded, before snuggling his head back into Silas' belly.

Silas saw this and smiled, while he continued caressing his hair.

"Alex, who brought you home from school?" Silas asked, curiously.

"Mom."

Silas nodded and was about to ask about Kim's whereabouts where Kim was, when a knock came from the opened door.

"Silas, are you busy?" Kim's clear voice came from the other end of the door.

"No. Come in," Silas replied, and Kim walked into his room.

"Good afternoon, Kim," Silas said with a smile, when he saw her.

"Good afternoon, Silas. How are you? How was your trip?" She asked, with a smile with on her face.

"Fine. My trip was great. I will be leaving tomorrow again tomorrow. I was around, so I decided to check in," Silas replied.

"Another trip tomorrow? But you just came back from one?" Kim asked in surprise.

"Yeah. I have very important stuffs that I have to do," Silas replied.

"I see," Kim said, as her eyes shifted slightly.

She would be lying if she says that she isn't curious about what he's doing, what the trip is all about and everything that's going on. It's just that she didn't know how to ask.

The atmosphere in the room was getting slightly awkward, something the three of them noticed.

"Ok, I will go freshen up and prepare dinner. Just give me some minutes, okay?" Kim said, and Silas nodded.

"Alex, you should also take a shower and change into something more comfortable. Dinner will be ready soon," She said, and left the room.

"Yes, mom," Alex said, and stopped hugging Silas, before leaving the room.

After the both of them left, Silas fell back on his bed with a smile.

"Professor Edward teaches at Princeton University. I have to make sure I get him before he starts his lecture tomorrow," Silas said to himself, as he made plans for his trip tomorrow.

"Also, I should be on the lookout for young potential that I can recruit," Silas thought to himself.

The time went by slowly and a few minutes later, Silas heard Alex knocking on the door and telling him to come down for dinners.

He stood up from the bed and met him outside the door, and the two of them made their way to the dining area.

At the dining area, Kim was already done dishing out food and was taking her seat when they arrived.

With everything set, the three of them took their seats and started eating.

Silas scooped a spoonful of rice into his mouth and savoured the taste.

After literally losing the ability to feel hunger, the only thing Silas can do is to enjoy the taste of every food he eats.

They had dinner their dinner in silence and when they were done, Silas offered to do the dishes and he dragged Alex along.

Kim smiled and shook her head when she saw this. Seeing how close all of them had gotten lately, she felt that all that's left is for Chris to return but she knew that it will take a while for that to happen.

She didn't know where he was but she trusted Silas and believed that he was somewhere very safe, and she hopes he comes back a better person.

In the kitchen, Silas washed while Alex dealt with the rinsing. He could had used the dishwasher but he felt like doing it himself.

"So, Alex, did you change school?" Silas asked, as he passed a dish to him to rinse.

"Yes," Alex replied, as he rinsed the dish in his hand, dried it and kept it in its cabinet.

"Do you like your new school?"

"Yeah, I think so. I have only been going there for like a week, so I don't really know much about it but it's good. New people, new faces."

"Good. Make friends, okay?" Silas said, and looked at Alex intently.

"I will try." Alex said, and continued what he was doing.

Silas knew that it will take a while for Alex to make new friends with his response but there's nothing he can't do anything about it at the moment with his busy schedule. He can only hope things works out.

Silas looked at Alex and had the thought of giving him the remaining quantum smartwatch and purchase a Gear for him from the system store, but he knew that it would be very dumb of him to do that.

The quantum smartwatch is something he can still do but the Gear is a whole different story entirely.

Though Alex is matured and might not show off the gadgets if Silas gives them to him, but Silas can't trust others. What if they get taken away from him?

With his understanding about how school's social hierarchy works, Silas knew that Alex has a very high probability of being bullied, especially since he looks weak and is weak physically.

Silas doesn't want to put a possible target on his little brother's back.
