Bab 168: Private Dorm

After hearing Deanna's story, Arix felt a wave of emotions. If she'd ended up on Planet Void instead of Planet Waste with Sister Gwen, her survival might have been in question.

Noticing the concern on Arix's face, Deanna asked, "Arix, are you scared?"

"Yes," Arix replied honestly, then gently took Deanna's arm and asked, "Deanna, have you ever been scared?"

Deanna smiled, her eyes twinkling like stars. "No, because I have my brother."

"I see, you and your brother are really close," Arix thought about Marceau, who also adored his sister, and felt a bit envious. But she also felt glad, because she knew she had two wonderful brothers as well. Kellan was always kind and caring, and even though Drexel could be unreliable at times, Arix knew he was also the best brother anyone could ask for.

"Yes, my brother is amazing. I hope I can be his bride one day," Deanna said dreamily.
