The true identity of Volcan was finally revealed to them, and knowing that it's one of Arlo's family member, it was like a punch to the guts for Remi
Remi left the rooftop early and ended up walking in the lonely school hallways at a slow pace. Her face darkened with her hair covering her gloomy eyes
Realizing something she said before, she stopped her steps and stood still. It was just a moment ago back on the rooftop
***
"Should we tell Arlo about this?" Sera began
"Remi. What do you think?" John asked. He felt like Remi should be the one to decide. It was related to her brother after all, and she would be the closest to Arlo out of the two
"Remi...?" Sera called, since Remi wasn't answering, "Should we help his Aunt?"
....
"No..." Remi replied with an almost silent voice, "She should pay for her crimes" She slowly walked away and left the rooftop without saying another word
Why did I say that? Was it revenge that was talking?
If it was a random person, would I help them?
Volcan...
No. Valerie is a murderer. She got what she deserves. Why should we help her get her powers back? To kill more people?
"Remi..." A certain someone called, and Remi turned her head up to see who was in front of her, "What's wrong?"
"Oh, Blyke" Remi gave a forced smile, and Blyke couldn't bare to see it, "I'm just fine... don't worry"
Remi slowly walked away past him, so he instinctively grabbed her arms, "Cmon, you're so bad at hiding your emotions"
Blyke tried his hardest to brighten her up, but Remi instantly shook him off and escaped his grasp "I'm not in the mood, Blyke. Please"
Blyke gave up, and just watched as Remi walked further way from him
What's going on, Remi?...
The only time you don't open up is when it's something about your brother, or EMBER
Rooftop
Back on the rooftop, John and Sera was left surprised. They've never seen Remi act like that before
"So, what should we do?" Sera asked, worried for her friend "About Arlo, I mean"
"Let Remi think about" John replied, "As for myself, I don't give a shit what happens to his aunt"
Sera glanced at John. He doesn't act like it. But he seemed worried for Remi more than me. She thought, and John noticed
"Hm? Why are you staring at me like that?" He raised an eyebrow, "Did you just notice my charm?"
