His chest tightened.
So she's fallen for him too, huh…
He looked down at the water, watching the reflection tremble.
I should have guessed. Javier's everything most men want to be. Confident, clever, unpredictable. The way he speaks, the way he moves, even his mischief, it all somehow draws people in. And not just his charm… he's strong. Reliable.
Maybe that's why she loves him too.
His hand clenched under the water.
The only flower that makes my heart restless… loves someone else.
He shut his eyes.
If only she didn't love Javier. If only I wasn't born his brother… maybe, just maybe, I could have told her how I feel.
The faint splash of water broke his thoughts. He looked up again, Javier was still humming, grinning at the bottle of sake.
Heres smiled faintly. A quiet, pained smile.
Lucky, huh… yeah. You really are, Javier.
Heres watched Javier lower himself into the bath, the water rippling around his frame as he let out a long, dramatic sigh.
"Ahhhh~ Bliss~"
