บท 57: Madam Ann, the Italian designer

The twins looked at me for a while before looking away with a certain amount of displeasure written on their faces.

"What... What's wrong? Why are you making that face?" I asked.

"Well, Hyung, why did you get a cat anyway?" Seojun asked.

"You look like you would do well without it." They said and I paused.

"You...don't mean that, do you?" I asked, my countenance falling. "I got Lily recently. She was alone, just like me."

They had no idea how lonely I was and when I found Lily, I felt so happy that I would finally have someone to keep me company. Even if it wasn't someone I could exchange conversations with, at least she was a living thing.

It was way better than talking to plants... It... It was better than being alone all by myself.

Without even knowing it, tears started rolling down my cheeks.

They would never know. It was because I had no one.
