Chapter 509 - Its okay (1/2)

Lyn decided to head off to the market when Rhys fell asleep. At first, it worried her sneaking off alone, but she recalled what Rhys said before. He said these streets are safe. She ran into Gabrielle, who was coincidentally having tea nearby, so she joined her.

”I think I understand what the issue at hand is.”

”Uh, you do?”

Or rather, why does she have to make it sound so formal for?

”In short terms, he is duping you.”

Her sweatdropped. ”I thought so, too, at first. But I do not think he is the type to plan this far.” Or rather, his recent interactions with her have seen more genuine. He was always kind to her before, but there always seemed to be something fake about his smile.

Lyn. played with the cup in her fingers. ”Recently, he's been genuinely kind. When I was troubled regarding my sister, he ended up helping me out. Somehow...I think it's nice.”

There are many other things she wants to say. But she doesn't know how to phrase it just yet; she won't search for an answer now though, because he's not her beloved person, even if she does like being with him. The feelings of 'love' are something completely different. She's still no expert on it, but Lyn knows already, that feelings of love are on a whole other level.

”I see. I understand it's something genuine that's why you feel uncomfortable that people are trying to define it for you.”

Oh, Gabrielle isn't asking her like all the others have; instead, she's... Her gaze softens. ”Well, I can say for sure that I miss Kazuya. I've been missing him like crazy.”

”I can tell. How much paper have you wasted?”

She watched at as Gabrielle glanced over at her bag. Her cheeks flushed red. ”Ah um, those are...”

”When you miss someone, you end up unconsciously acting on your desires. I'm sure all those drawings represent your subconscious.”

Her desires.. Uwaaah, she should hide them after all! She probably ended up unconsciously drawing something strange. Strange drawings, come to think of it Rhys did the same.

”Lyn, can I ask you what sort of person is your boyfriend?”

What sort of person? Gabrielle, who is offering her some advice, must be getting somewhere. What sort of person is Rhys? It's a question with many answers, and depending on the relationship with the individual, others have different opinions.
