Tragedy 651 - Confusing situation

"You've been crying?" ask Elvina.
"No, I'm not crying," elak Rei who tried to keep his expression so that Elvina would believe his words.
"really? But you're like the one who just cried. Your eyes are red too."
"My eyes were accidentally sanded, so I looked like I was crying."
"You're really okay?"
"Yes. You don't have to worry about me." Rei smiled, trying to make her even more certain.
"I hope you're not hiding anything, either from me, William, or from yourself."
Rei once again fell silent without a word listening to Elvina's words just now. Somehow but the sentence Elvina blurted out seemed right on target.
The woman seemed to be able to know and read all the situations she was going through.

Chequek!
The door opened slowly. Dorothy could see Joe sitting with his head resting on the bed that Derek was sitting on. The man seemed to fall asleep after dinner, especially Dorothy knew very well all this time Joe did not escape accompanying his sister.
Dorothy stepped slowly, approaching Joe who was fast asleep with her position.
"I've guessed he'll fall asleep here" Dorothy murmured softly. The woman then used the blanket he brought to Joe with the aim that the man did not get cold.
"I know her sleeping position like this must be uncomfortable, but she definitely can't leave her sister just like that." Dorothy looked at Joe's calm face.
"Looking at your condition like this makes me feel that you've worked hard to keep each of you from getting hurt by each other."
"Joe also seems to love Derek very much."
Dorothy kept watching the two. Until his focus was accidentally fixed on Derek's two eyes that began to blink. Seeing it spontaneously stunned him.
Dorothy approached, making sure what she saw was not an illusion, and it turned out to be true. Derek blinked his eyes a few times before finally opening his eyes slowly.
Dorothy flashed a smile as she looked at the two irises for the first time since the last time.
"Argh..." The groaning crane held back slowly. His voice managed to make Joe who was asleep immediately woke up from his sleep.
"Derek!" Joe got up from his chair spontaneously.
"J-joe..."
Joe smiled knot. He's happy not to play seeing his only sister was conscious. "Ultimately you're aware too..."
Both of Joe's eyes were glazed. The man hugged his sister tightly, powerless to stem the happiness he felt.
"Joe..."
"I'm really glad you finally came to your senses, too. All this time I was afraid that you would not wake up again, I even kept waiting and accompanied you here hoping that you would wake up as soon as possible. And now that all my hopes have been fulfilled.., you're finally conscious."
Derek silent. His brain is still trying to process every incident that is in nature. He was also still trying to digest Joe's strange-sounding speech.
Derek's attention turned to Dorothy who was now looking at him with a happy smile. The woman even glazed over as soon as she saw the sight of herself being embraced by Joe.
"How are you doing? Is there any part of your body that hurts?" Joe looked at his sister with a worried face. He broke their embrace.
