Shoecha
Ch 14- Return of the Aleta

Upon their return from Typherus, the place changed. Dead flowers. The river is back. Plants and shady trees cover the course of sunlight. More miserable than Typherus before.

A true symbol of real darkness.

" E'h..." My hands were raised, covering my two eyes.

Brightly, I blinked my eyes many times, adjusting the extremely glare light caught by my sense of sight.

Samar I saw a man with long white hair in a Knight's dashing suit that I had just seen a moment ago.

" Var," he called.

" Arguza?..." I'm trying to sit down, is this still in that world? Something fell off my forehead, a little wet towel.

" Who's Arguza?" Ask. I looked at him, very clingy.

" Aleta?" I hesitated, staring around. A familiar atmosphere, this is my room.

But, I'm sure what I saw just now was Arguza, wait...

Yes, if only his red hair was a bit long and became white.

I hit my forehead slowly, you idiot! I think I was really dreaming.

ALETA

I opened the door, not in the key. He was always reckless. She should have remembered my message to always lock the door when she wasn't home.

I rushed in. I really miss this building. I'll pick him up at school later in the day as a surprise. Variella must have missed me.

I rushed up to my room on the second floor to immediately rest after a long trip and consumed a lot of this energy. My room is next to Variella's.

I quit, I quit,

" Ck," I decak, I walked over to his room, intending to close the door. Usually he would make it difficult for me to look at his room, but now he opens it wide because I rarely come home.

" Vaaar!" I rushed closer, what happened? Thief, or?...

I carried her, put my little Variella to bed. His nose was bleeding a lot, still wet, meaning it had just. He collapsed on the side of the bed by the window.

Her body has a fever, it's very hot. I went downstairs to get some water and a little towel. Cleaned his face, then compressed it.

I can't imagine what would have happened if I hadn't come home today. Holy hooch! I could never count on one bit.

" E'h..." His hands were raised, covering his two eyes.

He blinked his eyes many times, adjusting the extremely glare light that his sense of sight might catch.

" Var," call me, make sure he's okay.

" Who's Arguza?" Ask me. He looked at me, very clingy. Why did he know that name. From where? The seal has still not changed in the slightest, shifting only one point fifty-three percent since the last time I left this house.

" Aleta?" He hesitated, staring around.

" You've been back, since when? And, hey!! Why did you enter my room, this is a ban area for you!!!" His shout was aware of the strange rules, making his small body even limp because it was still too weak to be used to move. I held her two shoulders with my hands.

I smile...

" Oh, come on Var, I found you passed out with blood on your nose, what happened, you should have called me if anything happened, or needed anything" I said. Hugged it. He's still quiet. I'm concerned. Very worried, even though he was actually very annoying, and never stopped acting by always looking for many ways to lure my emotions out.

" I guess you're just like Mom and Dad who never want to know what I'm doing, what's going on with me, and what I'm feeling." The answer is subtle, it seems very sad. In front of me, Variella is still my little sister whom I love very much.

" I'm sorry, now I'm too busy with my own world to let you be lonely, sad, and think too much, Var, I'm your brother, so I love you so much, believe me... Also Mom and Dad, don't ever worry me again, okay?... Sorry for my negligence all this time..." Answer me trying to calm him down.

" I miss you so much, Aleta rese!" Terkanya glazed.

" I also miss you so much, stupid Variella," I kissed the top of her hair, as I often do.

Variella is indeed only the adopted child of the Souju family, behind her name was the Souju clan removed by reason of following my Mother's clan who happened to be named Namira Aesyel. It's just that Aesyel's word was put on the front. But that doesn't mean we never loved Variele.

Since Kirana, my only child sister, died in an accident, Variella is the one who can make Mom better from her sadness. Variella also made me never feel lonely.

We found Variella eighteen years ago in a suburban park. At that time I was only five years old, the incident happened one year after Kirana died.

I let go of my hug to Variella, reached into my pants pocket, and took out a purple responsibility box. Put it on Variele.

" Happy birthday little brother, sorry, brother can't come home in time" I said, it's been ten days. He took it, and opened the box.

I took the silver bracelet in a slightly black alloy, then grabbed Variella's left hand, put it on.

" It looks good, and, pretty," praise me for what it is.

" Thank you" he said sincerely.

" I'm sorry" I said again, hugging her.

Ever since Variella grew up as a teenage girl, I realized that my affection for her had changed.

No longer an elder sister to her sister, but, more strongly leaning towards the affection of an Aleta, for Varella.

I realized all that, I'm a normal guy. I don't want to blame the circumstances that have made me so close and familiar to Variella. Seeing all the changes in him at all times.

But, I also realized, this was all a big mistake. Because of me, I shouldn't have this feeling... To him, the Master whom I have great respect for my past life.

On the other hand, I don't want him to know, Family is something he prioritizes a lot. He loves me too. I really don't want to see him feel sad because of reality like that. So, whoever, just don't him. There are so many women out there.

" Rest, I'll keep you here,"
