Chapter 16 - chapter 16

"anything else? Feel free to ask Lux! I am your younger sister!" I asked while giggling adorably.

"Since I am your big brother, Shouldn't we live together! Tht is! If you want to!" He said shyly and I continued to giggle.

"Why are you laughing? What's so funny?" He asked with a grim expression.

"You are funny!" I said then hugged him.

(I am getting attached to them! Is it a bad thing though? I want to ask death god about it but I fear of the answer! After all, am a human being with many emotions!)

I felt a hand caress my face which startled me back to reality.

"What are you thinking, little sis?" Lux asked worriedly.

"I was thinking about the room to select for you...and how to decorate it," I said and he chuckled then patted my head lightly.

He was taller than me but blessed with innocent looks and a kind and humble characters. I will make sure that, that doesn't change.

"Come here!" He said then pulled me in for a cuddle," don't think about that too much! Just select the room and I will deal with the decorations, okay?"

Mmmmh...

I felt so secure in his embrace.

(Is this how familial warmth feels? I have not even felt it from my mother since the time she noticed that I wasn't the same daughter as before. She even doesn't want to stay with me anymore)

Tears began trinkling down. My expression was that of a lonely person left with no hope in the world. Empty both in the inside and out.

"You are not alone now. You have me as your family. No matter what decision you make, I will support you. Wherever you want to go, I will go with you. I will be your strong pillar to lean on. You are not alone and you will never be alone,"

I looked at him. He said those words with clear determination in his innocent eyes. An expression that a person will think that he doesnt have.

(It's worth to try!)

"Okay," I smiled...
