Capítulo 81: The Weight of Home

Why did Damien come here? There was really only one thing he could do in this situation.

"I came to spoil you," Damien said simply. As he spoke, he reached out and gently wiped the tear streaks from Leonide's cheeks. Then, just like he used to do with his younger brother, he leaned down and gave Leonide a soft kiss on the forehead.

"That's so strange," Leonide said, blushing slightly as he let out a soft, amused laugh.

"Now then, what should we do from here?" Damien asked.

"What do you mean?" Leonide replied, his voice curious.

Damien playfully poked Leonide's cheek, messed up his hair, tickled his ear, and pressed his nose, while Leonide retaliated by biting his finger, tickling his stomach, and lightly pinching his cheek. They spent a while playfully tussling like that until finally, Leonide settled down, lying across Damien's lap with his arms wrapped around his waist, his face pressed against him.
