Chapter 254 - For now (1/2)
Year 4014 Mist Kingdom Central Market
She wonders how they ended up looking for a group of lost children. However, when Lyn saw how frantic that Mother looked. She knew she couldn't just leave the situation alone. It didn't take them long to find the kids.
”He's really fantastic. Probably the best,” Lyn beamed. The person she was boasting about was her eldest brother. Though he did not express a keen interest in it. Her eldest brother was very good at playing a musical instrument.
”Geez do you not have any pride or what?” Rhys said.
At that comment, Lyn blinks, ”Huh?”
”Nothing.” he paused. ”Is that guy that fantastic?”
”Yes,” Lyn said with a smile. ”If only I can play as well as him it would be great.” While her music playing is only mediocre at best, she liked to play.
Her eldest brother playing differs completely from hers. However, his sound could easily enter her heart; it could easily stir it. It's funny since her eldest brother is so cold-hearted.
”Say comparing me to that guy who's better?” Rhys suddenly asked.
At that comment, Lyn looks down. ”Well, I have never heard you play. How am I supposed to answer this question of yours?”
When they met each other's eyes, it was only then when they realized that the children were gone. ”geh---”
Yet they didn't have to panic for long; she sighs a breath of relief seeing the kids by the balloons. Thank goodness.
”These brats run of far too much.”
Lyn chuckled, 'He must have been worried too.' Rhys is a very awkward person, at least when it comes to expressing his feelings.
”Look big sister they gave us free balloons.”
Lyn bends down and pats their heads. ”Why don't you play an instrument here? That will easily get some attention, so others will notice you,” Rhys suddenly suggested.
What is he saying? ”What why me?” Lyn said. He bent down And similarly patted the children.
”Didn't you come here to practice? That's killing two birds with one stone. Although the standard isn't there, I guess it's alright.” Though it's true, she brought her instrument with her; she didn't think she would have time for it.
That fellow....he is pushing his luck. ”Then why don't you do it? Aren't you pretty confident with your skills?”
Forget it. He will probably say no. ”Okay.”
He extends his hand out, ”Lend me your instrument. Hurry up. Is he serious? A smile was plastered on his face. ”You wanted to hear my music, don't you?”
Wait, wait? What seriously?
”Sorry I don't mean it that way.”
Even if...he is rude and cruel. He can pull those kinds of expressions too, huh? Lyn hands it over to him.
'I'm very good.' What the..how can he say such things so easily? Can he really play? Her gaze landed on him, his stance and posture is right though, it's almost nostalgic in a way. Uncommonly confident and also rude to people, she wondered what kind of music such a person would bring. Her eyes went wide once he started playing...this...sound is…
…
After they dropped the kids off. Lyn decided that since Rhys showed her something nice, she would do the same too. She quickly looked around and found a hilltop.
”I could casually hear your melody
I wonder why I'm always, always remembering it?
When I hum to myself, thinking about you
Inside of my scr.a.p.ed heart, I feel satisfied
This unscientific wonderful feeling must be magic
Let's walk on, just like this
With our voices in unison, let's imagine tomorrow
Even though I can't see it, I'm not afraid
When it comes to something valuable, don't hide it, carry it along with you
If you love it, then it will always shine
