Even though she tricked me and I hated it,
I had somehow ended up seeing her every day.
The way she moved.
The way she sang.
Even when she looked at me,
She hooked me into wanting her.
Sleeping did nothing but provide me with images of her.
Her...
Lucy had been acting strangely for the past couple of weeks. It annoyed me. What was she hiding this time? Was it that she was sleeping with my little brother? If she thought she hid it well she was wrong. I knew her too well for that.
"Carla-kun" I turned around as I heard the soft voice that had drawn me to it to see Lucy. Her blush had been darkened and that look she had, was just like when I first knew she loved me.

I arched a brow. What was she planning on telling me? "What is it?" She walked next to me before staring at the night sky.
"For the first time since I've been here, these trees are blossoming."

"That's because I allowed them to." Her eyes widened as she looked at me.
"Allowed?"
"For Mao"

I laid out my palm and allowed one to rest in my hand before gently closing it. "Memories for Shin and I started around this age. Her first memories should be good ones." Her cheeks dusted red before she nodded.
"You're right"
"So what did you want to tell me?" Her eyes widened before she stared at the banister.
"It's something that I have been worried to tell you."
"Is it that you're pregnant?" She looked away from me with a blush.
"Carla-"
"It's mine, I know for sure. If you think I am letting you believe that there is a chance that it's Shin's I will not let you."
"Carla-kun, I'm so sorry." I turned her face to look at me.

"You are not allowed to sleep with him again. If you do, he will be banished and you will be punished. You got that?" She slowly nodded. "Good" I started to walk off the balcony when a thought came to me. I stopped at the door and but didn't turn to look at her. If I did she would have gotten the best of me. "And if you ever get lonely in that way, then come to me." I felt my cheeks darken but decided to ignore it.
"Carla-kun-"
"No buts, now do I make myself clear?"
"Yes"
"Good, now get dressed, we have another appointment with the marriage counselor."
"I thought that-"
"I decided that we should go back." I looked at her to see her with a mixed expression. One of joy and one of wonder.
