Bab 269: Good Luck

"How close are you to Lucy?" Tom asked as a conversation starter once he and Lucas were seated in his bar room.

"How close?" Lucas asked in confusion.

"Yeah. Although you both are not identical twins, I've been curious about the kind of connection that exists between you both since the moment she mentioned to me that she had a twin brother," Tom said as he took a sip from his glass, and Lucas smiled sadly thinking that he was no longer as connected with his sister as they had once been. 

"Hmm... I really do not know how to answer that question," Lucas said with a sigh.

"Funny, because Lucy said almost the same thing the first time I asked her that," Tom said with a smile as he remembered the first time he had visited Lucy's apartment under the guise of being her neighbor.

"What did she say?" Lucas asked curiously, wanting to know what Lucy genuinely thought about their siblingship.
