“Just continue to be my brother.” She said, grinning slightly as her moods were gradually lifted.
The world seemed to stop for that second. He stared at her grinning face, feeling his heart get penetrated by hundreds of invading daggers, slashing ruthlessly within him. He felt the pain edging slowly, filling up his body thoroughly. Brother…huh? He clenched his fists tightly and gritted his teeth. Why…why don’t you see it? Why can’t you see me?
He smiled cheerfully at her. “Okay, if that’s what you want me to be, I’ll always be your warm and caring brother. So, just stay beside me, okay? I’ll always be here to support you.” He moved his hand to caress her hair, messing it up slightly as she smiled sheepishly back at him.
