Chapter 73 - From Now On (1/2)

Later that day, after the two siblings finished eating their lunch, Haru, who was observing his sister this whole time, suddenly sighed deeply.

”What's wrong?”

”Uhh… Nothing, I'm just feeling quite relieved.”

”About what?”

Davi stared intently at her little brother for he suddenly looked a little different even though he was smiling pleasantly as usual.

”I'm just happy… whoever your husband is, I think I wanted to meet him to say my thanks.”

A line appeared between Davi's brows as soon as she heard his statement. She looked puzzled as if a big question mark just appeared above her head. An expression that caused Haru to smile even wider.

”Sis… for as long as I can remember, you've always been the one taking care of me. You gave me everything. You worked really hard for me. You gave up too many things for me. You---”

”Haru, what are you saying?” Davi cut through her little brother's words. It was because she suddenly felt strange listening to him. This was the first time he talked that way towards her, as though he suddenly became quite mature, leaving Davi puzzled about what he was trying to say.

Seeing her worried and confused face, the young man stood and hugged her gently, causing Davi to feel even more worried.

”Haru… what is it? Is there something wrong?” she asked worriedly and the boy let go of her as he stared at her with serious eyes.

”Sis, listen to me. Honestly, I have wanted to tell you this for a long time now but there never seemed to be a right time. But now, please allow me to say what I feel.”
