Chương 45: Ring

Being in his arms was so warm and cozy. Now I didn't feel awkward at all, maybe because he wasn't doing anything obscene, but just comforting me by stroking my hair.

I don't remember how long ago I showed someone my fears and worries in order to get support and care in return. After my family broke up, I had to deal with my own problems and sorrows. I'm used to being alone and being strong no matter what. And now such a little thing has put me out of action.

I was worried about this scar, but I was afraid to reveal the truth, I was afraid to tell about my brother. And it's not that he hurt me, but that he didn't know who was standing in front of him. This vicious vicious circle was so burdensome, forcing me to lie to everyone. Why can't life be simpler? Why can't everyone live in peace, love and harmony? Why all these wars and violence? For what? For the sake of power? I couldn't figure it out, and I didn't want to.
