The Wander Caravan
Joe, Tee, Top, Hyu

Chapter 34

Joe's name appears on his phone screen. Alex who saw it immediately answered his phone. "Hallo...Joe are you okay?" Alex's heart after receiving the call.

"Sister..sister where everything's okay right?" Joe replied in a hurry.

"I'm doing fine. How about you and the others, you guys doing all right? Where are you now?" Alex said after hearing Joe's question.

Joe who heard Alex was fine immediately let go of his worry all along.

"We're all fine. Now me, Tee, Top and Hyu are in my apartment. We don't know what happened all of a sudden we all had a fever then not how long we all fainted, because I remember my sister saying that fever should not be treated in the hospital we all decided to stay home just this morning we all realized." Joe said as he explained Alex the circumstances of all of them.

Alex who heard all his foster siblings were fine immediately felt relieved. But the problem now is what to do, Alex is eager to bring along his brothers and sisters as well as his comrades in arms.

But Alex is worried the family doesn't agree to bring outsiders in. Leana has a huge secret. Which is risky if Leana's secret is discovered. But if just relying on their strength alone for now does not matter but in the future who knows.

Alex, who often makes quick decisions during his life, has a dilemma in making current decisions because he considers both sides.

Where one side of his wife and beloved family while the other side is brothers and sisters who have experienced life and death together.

These people are the most important people in Alex's life. He did not want to take the wrong step so regret later on. But if you're told to choose Alex, you'll choose his wife and family.

But, Alex also wants to try to save his younger siblings. Because Alex can't make a decision right away can only try to ask what Joe wants to do first because it's possible that Joe has other plans.

While thinking so Alex then asked Joe, "Then now what do you want to do? Do you have any plans ahead of you"

Joe who heard the question knows that Alex is in a dilemma to make a decision. Joe who has known Alex since childhood knows his nature.

Joe knows Alex will not leave them no matter what happens but in the current circumstances that have changed Alex must choose between them or his family so as not to take a direct decision.

Joe understands for Alex the family is his first priority no matter what happens after the new family is his sister and his comrades in arms.

And to be honest, Joe feels that Alex's decision is correct if Joe is in Alex's position, he will also take the decision to protect his family, but unfortunately, the four orphans left behind by their parents them.

And at the moment their family only has four of them added Alex as the eldest brother. As the four of them swore no matter what, they would always follow Alex.

~Flashback~

Joe, Tee, Top, and Hyu are the orphans the four of them left at Elisabeth's orphanage when they were babies. They were raised by sisters in orphanages until they were 15 years old.

Because the same fate and they live in the same room makes the four of them who do not have a family but want the family decided to become one family with Joe the biggest being the eldest brother, the family, Tee as the second brother, Top as the third brother, and Hyu the smallest.

But that all changed when they met Alex during their Kindergarten. Those who are orphans are always underestimated and ridiculed by other children because they do not have parents have changed their nature to be irritable and always quarrel with other children. So the four of them are stamped as bad boys.

When they met Alex, the four of them hated him because he was delivered by his parents every day. This made the four of them hate him for envy and jealousy.

Because they do not like the togetherness of Alex with his parents, the four of them immediately try and always make trouble with Alex so that they can fight but Alex never mengubris them at all so that makes them bored to the point of I don't care about Alex anymore.

They also think Alex did not pester them because Alex underestimated them just like the other children turned out they were wrong.

They know their assumption is wrong because when they were about to go home from school the smallest Hyu accidentally almost hit by a car that drove fast on Joe's road, Tee, and the, and Top who was in front of Hyu did not realize it only Alex who was behind Hyu knew.

Alex, who saw Hyu about to be hit by a car, quickly hugged Hyu to protect her. Because Alex who acted quickly Hyu was not injured due to the accident but Alex suffered a minor injury in his right hand.

Alex who suffered an injury, his facial expression did not change or feel afraid. After the incident without saying anything Alex then left them.

But since then their prejudice against Alex has changed. Though not talking at all but they start to follow Alex everywhere.

Alex who followed did not touch them at all and did not speak at all but even so the four of them felt happy because they felt there was someone else who could accept them. Therefore they always together no longer separated wherever Alex went to school they also went to school there.

Despite not speaking they know Alex has accepted them because Alex always gives them directions like where he is going to school, every time there is a picnic Alex always bring 5 supplies even though the provisions are only placed on their table.

They also know Alex is secretly asking the teacher about where they live, etc.

This relationship continued until they were Junior High, because the four of them were used to fighting accidentally they offended the local thugs.

Due to the difference in age and abilities the four of them were all beaten up when the four of them thought they would die in the beat up Alex appeared to help them.

After Alex manages to overcome the thugs he then calls the hospital and his parents to report what happened.

It was then that Alex spoke to them and introduced her parents. And because of this too Joe, Tee, Top, and Hyu first felt in the care of the parents because Marie and Paul (Alex's father) took care of them like their own children.

Marie also shared her experiences of being an orphan with them. Which finally made the four of them become aware. It doesn't matter if they're orphans.

Not having parents does not mean they should be ashamed or hate people around them but instead they should try to be useful people for themselves and also for society so that no one will judging the orphan.

And because they saw Paul's uniform and knew Alex's ideals, they also decided to become special officers with the intention to become Alex's protector.

They had to be treated for serious injuries and they had no money so it was Alex's parents who paid their hospital fees.

And since then Alex has been their oldest brother. Alex also always takes care of them and takes care of them just like the big brother in general.

Even when they are wrong Alex immediately punishes them mercilessly even so they feel very happy because they finally have another family they wanted for a long time.
