Phuwin led his brother to the couch in the living room and sat down next to him.

"Tell me, Gemini, what's going on? We used to be close, and now you wouldn't even tell me that someone was threatening you. I was horrified when Dunk told me about it. Why you don't trust me? I am your brother".

"I don't know, Phu! I would like to know. Something has been happening to me lately that I don't understand. I'm having nightmares, someone gave me a package with terrifying photos of a dead boy who looks like Fourth, my career is basically over, and I'm forced to play the role of the bad guy once again. I don't want it, P'! I want to be myself, I want to have the freedom to choose the person I love, I want to have the freedom to hold that person's hand, I want to live a normal life at least for a moment".

"Oh G...! But you are not an ordinary boy. You are an artist, you have talent, why don't you give others a chance to get to know you and love you?"

"I don't give them that chance?! It's not my fault that P'Erin made me look like a flirt, which I'm not and probably never will be".

"Tell her about it, tell her you don't like it. Why don't you tell anyone? Do you expect them to figure it out on their own? Believe me, most people cannot read others' minds. Do you know that lately you've been hurting and pushing away everyone who only really cares about you? Prim, Pond, me, Mom, Dunk, even our Dad. You pushed everyone away. Don't be surprised if one day you wake up all alone in the world. You can tell us, we are on your side".

Gem felt as if he had been told to swallow a particularly bitter pill. Perhaps Phuwin was right, perhaps it was enough to tell P'Erin honestly? But how? Won't it make her feel bad that he doesn't want to use the idea she spent a sleepless night on? Wouldn't that seem like ingratitude on his part? He told Phuwin about his doubts. For the first time in a long time, they talked to each other so honestly and calmly. Gem felt a pleasant warmth around his heart as he listened to his older brother's calm voice.

"No, I think she will understand and be happy that you also have your own ideas. Go talk to your new boyfriend and decide together what you want to do next".

"Fourth isn't my boyfriend".

"But I didn't mention any name, you immediately assumed it was him. I guess that means something!" - Phu laughed happily, glad that at least one problem had been solved. Gem, although he didn't usually do this, now scooped his brother into his arms and gave him a sincere hug.

"I'm sorry for being an asshole, I promise to do better".

"Okay, okay, we will see about that".

"And as for boyfriends, I have a feeling that you will be the first of the three of us to have a boyfriend" - Gemini stuck his tongue out at Phuwin as soon as he moved away from him.

"Where did this conclusion come from?"

"From a conversation with Pond. Pond is right, I have no right to stop him from loving my brother, and since he is my friend, I should trust him enough to believe that he will give up his ways for you. We saw you in the hall, you heard everything, right?"
