Pretending to Be a Girlfriend？ 109

Chapter 109 – The Core of the Past (9)

They were silent
If there was anyone he hated to hate as much as Stachis, it was his older brother his, Stion, on whom he depended heavily.

“Why are there no words?”

Even if he is hated by Stion in the first place, he has no future.
Even if Starchis miraculously accepts them,
A relationship that is opposed by the family cannot last long.

And the longer they stayed silent, the more Stion grew angry with them.

“…Did you do something?”

Moving slowly, he sat down on a chair.

“Russ. What did you do?”

This time, point out the target and ask a question.
You are more likely to get an answer if you point out one question than if you ask three people at the same time.

“What did you do, Starchis, to act like that?”

“Yes..?”

I know Starchis is mad.
But how on earth did he act? Stion, who was just waiting to see what happened, was like this.

Starchis was afraid of change.
It was something he had to endure and endure, but he imagined that he could not bear it.

“How… What actions…”

“How about Starches?”

He only coldly spit out the facts he saw.

“I don’t know anything else, but you guys are completely filmed. I hate it.”

That was the word they feared the most.

Saying that he, who was always by his side and reassuring him, hates them.
The sentence that I won’t even be able to watch him from the side.
His smile His may never be directed at him again.

Starchis, who became everything to them at some point, did not want to keep them around.

Bien started to shed her tears again,
Lily slowly leaned forward and stumbled.

And Russ blankly chewed on what she had heard.

Meanwhile, Stion continued to speak.

“You guys… Especially Russ.

“…What time do we get back?”

Dumbly, Russ asks.
Stion, who had come in with anger, could not help but soften at that expression.
It is the parties who face the biggest problems.
That’s why I don’t want to free them.

“You know what to do.”

“I apologize… I have to apologize…”

“I don’t think I even want to see your face right now. And if my predictions are right, I won’t be back for a while. Well…Whether it’s because of the work there or because of you.”

Stion had not visited his father’s grave his, thinking that he might stay there.

Back.
Russ’ heart tightens.
Biting facts drain her body’s strength like heavy mud.

‘Do you hate seeing my face?’

Russ repeats the words to herself.
She has known him for a long period of time and she has never been.
Even in the occasional fights, there was never a time when each other’s existence was unpleasant, and rather, there was a sense of stickiness that was felt when we were by each other’s side even when we fought.
They say that they never fall apart over trivial things.

And this problem was not trivial.
It’s like that just by looking at his reaction after leaving everything.
Starchis hates to have him around.

A major change was taking place that could not be reversed.
The relationship that I believed would never change is completely reversed.

He had to use his hands his somehow.

Russ moves her stiffening body her to reach Stion.

“Please… Tell me where you are… Please… I need to see Starches..”

“You said no.”

It was the same with Stion, who had waves of emotions.
It was because the more the girls showed such a dramatic reaction, the clearer it was that they had committed an unspeakable mistake.

That’s why he was riding a line to some extent.
Between the heart that endures the swearing you want to say because the expressions you see are full of pain, and the heart that wants to explode anger nonetheless.

At least, he had been holding back his anger his well until now, but that was all because he was a Starchis party member.
Starchis are the party members that must be constantly together.
More than anything, he hated that his own actions his hurt Stachis.

Even so, the desperation that appeared on the faces of Russ and the other party members did not seem to go away.
It was a face that was restless and wanted to get closer to Starchis somehow.

Stion wondered if he could make those expressions even if he exploded the emotions he was hiding, and he gritted his teeth.

…But, maybe, it might just look like that.
It may be that he desperately wants to meet Starchis.

Stion let out a deep sigh.

“Whatever it is, not now. Starchis will be confused right now.”

Realize that anger is not a tool to break their hearts.
I had to give them a convincing explanation so that they would effectively give up.

“I made them visit their parents’ graves.”

“Yes?”

“Ah..!”

“… !”

The three women reacted immediately.
There is no way that the girls who have been together for years do not know what parents mean to Stachis.

“That… Then more… !!”

Russ’ reaction intensifies.
Her body her tenses and her expression her contorts.
She wanted to open her mouth to all three women, but only Russ, with whom she was partying, could speak her words her to Stion.

“What?”

Stion was dumbfounded.
They say to leave people alone, but why can’t they do something so simple?

“S.. Starchis.. I mean it’s going to be hard right now..!”

Tears flowed from Russ’ eyes her.

“Every time you talk to me about your parents…It was hard…!”

Russ couldn’t stay still.

It is obvious how hard her best friend her and first love her will be in front of her parents’ grave her.

If it were him, she would pretend to be okay but soon feel pain and struggle.
I didn’t want to make a fuss by his side his or win his love his.

It was as pure as this moment.
When he stumbled in trouble, I wanted to lend his shoulder his.
If he showed tears, I wanted to shed tears by his side.

When he was sick he wished he wasn’t alone.

It wasn’t a time like this.
He licks his lips and says something he never wanted to say.

“Please… Then it doesn’t have to be me… “

“..Then?”

“L…It’s okay if it’s an L Jain… Please Starchis can rely on just one person…”

It was hard to bear that he wasn’t the one next to Starchis.
It wasn’t that I had any desire to acknowledge El Jain.
Her mind her wanted to tear her apart and kick her away.

But more than that, I hate Starchis having a hard time.
Especially when it comes to her parents her.

Stion tried to understand what she was talking about.
She was Russ, who had been toiling around A-rank commissions for weeks, bleeding and eating dirt.
Only one, for Starches. To win his heart.

But all that effort is in vain, trying to keep Elsaine by his side his, even trying to do it for him.

From Stion’s point of view, it was an overreaction.

“I don’t have to worry that much. Starches are adults too. Do you think I don’t know my brother better than you?”

“Mr. Stion might know better. But when it comes to parents, I know better.”

Russ opens her eyes wide in conviction.
Even through her tears her, she did not escape Stion’s gaze her.

“If Chis ever told you about your parents, you can’t say this. I’ve seen Stachis suffer through parental issues for years… Years. For years… It stuck by my side.”

“…”

“If you look like you can survive alone, you are mistaken. More than anything else, he’s sensitive about that issue…”

This time it was Stion’s turn to be silent.
Again, he thinks of his younger brother.
I didn’t like it, but it seemed fine.
Although he sometimes felt intense emotions, he thought that it was because of his future work with the party members.

But what if his strong feelings were only because of his parents his, not because of his party members his?

It is rare for the two of them to talk about their parents.
It was a sensitive topic to each other and there was no opportunity to bring it up.
I don’t have enough time to even talk about fun things, but it was uncomfortable to bring up such a serious story.

He says he does n’t know how Starchis reacts to his parents his… Maybe that’s the case.
But even so, he was not his own little brother who would break easily.
Even if it’s hard, he will come back with his own answer.

He knew better than anyone else that tumbleweed.
Russ is blinded by love and cares deeply for him.

“… I won’t ask you to tell me where you are. Elzain, at least let Elzain know. If love is right…! Please… Tell them to come visit me.”

Russ feels defeated.
I really had to admit it now.
She was robbed of him and lost.
She wasn’t the one who could be by his side his and heal his wounds her.

Stion thought.
There’s no way Rose can get to him.
She is the daughter of Hiannisti.
Didn’t she sleep out at Barefoot Base a few days ago?
It was Stion who allowed me to do that, so I couldn’t help but not know.

Now she may not be able to get out of the house.
Even if they can come out, they will not be able to visit their father’s grave.

Rose is not

“..No matter how you think about it, it’s an overreaction.”

Stion murmurs.

Like Starchis, he has overcome any adversity.
He’s not going to collapse just because the problem with his parents his broke out.
Although he can be in a bad mood, he doesn’t break down.

But what bothers me is what these three did to him.
I was worried about that.

If the shock of the three women was greater than expected,
I thought that my younger brother could be having a hard time because I was in trouble.

All the more, these party members should stay away from him.
The more they do, the more it helps them to turn their attention away from him.
You have to wait and see so he can draw his own conclusions.

“So work it out. I came to find out what you guys did, not to ask for your advice or to ask for your advice.”

At Stion’s words, silence descended on the base.
Once again, they couldn’t help but recall their mistakes.

From Starches point of view, it must have felt like a fish swimming in a fishing ground.
Actions make the heart pound and draw a line.
Even if I said it was because I loved her later, I couldn’t believe it and the time I spent alone worrying about it would have felt in vain.

“… You guys, are you kidding me?”

Blue fighting spirit pierced through Stion’s body his.
Even though he was the same brother, he was much colder and wilder than Stachis.
It seemed that he could see how he lived to protect his younger brother his.

“The family of the man you like so much, do you feel friendly? Starchis likes me, do you think I’m a good person?”

-Deed deed

Things near Stion begin to shake and tremble.

“This is the final warning. My brother… Stop hurting me. Please…! I want you to help me so that I can be happy..!”

The second was an unnecessary warning.
They themselves knew better.
I had no intention of hurting him anymore.
If you just stay by my side.. I thought I would give everything, but there was no disagreement.

Russ lowers her head.
In the midst of this, only Starchis, who is still struggling and hurting alone, comes to mind.

I remembered his last appearance of him.
He looks like he’s thinking about something in a restaurant.
She didn’t even know she was coming, in deep thought, until she got near it.

At that time, did she already hear the story about her parents?
From then on she wondered if she was already hiding the scars.

That she couldn’t be by his side and support him now.
No, it hurts so badly that there is no one who can be by his side her right now.

Stion got up from his seat and, without saying goodbye, turned around and headed for the gate.

-Bang!!

Again the women were left in the dark.
