The bitterness that had just been suppressed was once again stirred up by David's words.
"Brother..." Lily wrapped her arms around David's waist, burying her face in his embrace.
"Brother... thank you... thank you..."
Thank you.
Thank you for being my brother.
Thank you for always unconditionally standing by my side.
"Fool, we are siblings..." David hugged Lily back, running his fingers through her soft black hair, "I am your brother, and for a lifetime... I will spoil you, cherish you, protect you, and not let anyone bully you."
"Brother..." Lily looked up, staring blankly at David.
David always asked her to call him brother, but she felt more like friends with him, so she was always reluctant to call him that.
But now, Lily suddenly realized that this person had always been protecting her.
Just like he said, he was the brother who cherished her the most.
In a sudden burst, Lily broke into a smile.
She hugged David tightly.
