Chapter 19:

It's been over an hour since Kitt and Karr had their little dispute in the bedroom. A dispute that left both of them in an awkward state of sadness and upset feelings towards the matter as well as each other. Though neither has made the approach to fix it.

Kitt was going to correct that. Hopefully.

The search was long and irritating, but he managed to find his older brother in the large, enchanting rose garden. Filled with beautiful flowers of all colors, mainly white, red and pink. It had a stone pathway down the main aisle with smaller, gravel pathways between the numerous flower beds. In the middle of the rose garden was a giant fountain, standing proudly at 10 feet tall.

Kitt walked to the large fountain, going around to the other side where a metal bench sat facing out towards the countless, vibrant colored flowers. Silently, the youngest took a seat beside his brother, who never did anything to acknowledge his presence. His wine red eyes locked on a certain stone in the pathway.

"Hey," Kitt started quietly, calmly side glancing his brother.

"Hm." Karr responded, still not looking at him.

"Can we talk for a minute?" He asked, finally looking fully at Karr. The other still refused to meet his gaze.

"There's nothing to talk about, Kitt." The eldest said, shuffling his foot absentmindedly.

Kitt frowned. "Yes there is. You're upset about what happened, Karr. Don't lie to me."

"I'm not lying to you." Karr snapped lowly, meeting his gaze heatedly. "Just forget it, alright?"

"No. Karr, just talk to me. Please. You're always telling me that I can come to you whenever I want to talk about something. Why not switch the roles for a few minutes?"

"Kitt," he sighed irritably. "I said there's nothing to talk about, so just drop it for damn's sake!"

The sudden outburst took Kitt by surprise and he shrunk back from Karr. His eyes looking uncertainly upon his brother. Why did Karr always have to snap at him when all Kitt was trying to do was help him? It didn't make any sense.

"Karr, please," the youngest took hold of Karr's hand gently. "Tell me what's wrong."

Angrily, Karr yanked his hand back. Standing up a moment later and making an attempt to leave. Kitt feeling completely shut out.

And it hurt.

"Shut up. I don't want to here another word of it." He snapped at him before walking away. Hot tears developing in Kitt's eyes as he watched him go.
