Tall, black wavy hair covered his forehead, fair skin and frosty blue eyes which were currently starting at the pocket watch in his hand. He looked like he was in his mid 20's.

A sigh left his pink thin lips and a frown found its way on his handsome features.

I stared at him. It was hard not to.

His beautiful eyes met mine and at that moment, time stopped.

Wind rushed through us (again),ruffled his wavy black hair......

And.....

I could hear the wedding bells.

Soon a breathtaking smile took place on his lips, his face lit up as he made his way towards me.

My mind was blank and all I could imagine was my wedding with this piece of art.

And when he reached in front of me, he hugged me.

Fucking hugged me.

"I missed you..." His deep voice whispered in my ear.

That's it! I'm getting my wedding gown ready and we will go to Japan for our honey-

"...my dear sister."

Crack.

If you're wondering, that's the sound of my hopes and dreams getting shattered.

But wait.....

Adailia has a brother?!?!

Isn't that illegal? Only one child is permitted by the laws of Obelia. And he looks older than Adailia, that makes Adailia an illegitimate child. Wow! This can be one of the ways Traashid can use against Adailia and kill her in future.

Besides, was he even mentioned in the novel? Hmm... Was he the one who kidnapped people and then tortured and killed them? Wait no! That's a different book I read on the same day (the day of my death). Ugh- reading so many books always ends up with me getting the plot mixed up.

Not to mention, they look nothing alike. Aren't siblings supposed to look at least a bit similar?

I looked up and examined his handsome features. He has frosty blue eyes like the Archduchess and black hair like the Archduke.

Wait a second... Don't I have the same hair colour as the Archduchess and same eye colour as the Archduke?

I can't believe that the author of this novel made their characters look like that? I mean normally sibling would look similar, not just a younger version of their mother and father with a few features swiped. Things like these always remind me that I'm stuck in a novel.

"Lia?" He said giving me a confused look and I snapped out of my thoughts.

Quick say something!!

"I missed you too, Oppa*!" I said smiling.
(Oppa means older brother of a female person but it is also used to refer someone who is older than you in Korea)

He stiffened instantly and that's when I knew, I said something out of character.

Shit! But how am I supposed to know what Adailia acts like around her brother? I don't even remember his character.

Maybe saying Oppa was a wrong move. This novel has a western setting, but I think a few Korean words were used here and there since the author originally wrote this novel in Korean, though I was reading it's translated version.

But what's done is done.

"....Say that again." Adailia's Oppa said.

"I missed you."
