Lumiere & Lucretia Arc.
---
(POV: Akashic Records)
The two half siblings...
They hadn't seen each other in almost a month.
Since Lumiere lashed out on Genevieve not because she did anything wrong but rather, he was transferring his aggression.
In truth, that action was what he deemed a big mistake. He wanted to apologize.
Lumiere was aware that Genevieve was in Efistes, that was due to him meeting Garret and Ress at an inn.
"Lumiere?" she said.
Equally startled, Lumiere spoke up with a shaky voice. "G... Genny?"
Genevieve's brown eyes met Lumiere's amethyst eyes in a tense gaze.
Their silence could easily explain the unspoken tension between them.
Lumiere felt the weight of her piercing stare.
So, he nervously scratched the back of his head before finally mustering the courage to break the silence.
"To be honest," he began, his voice shaky, "I wasn't expecting to see you here."
