"Well, you do. But anyway, you don't need to worry about anything; I'm not as strict as Mom and Dad, so relax. And look, we've reached the station," Sky said calmly, gently petting her head before standing up from his seat, pulling out his phone to check if his aunt had arrived.
Meanwhile, Sillia glared at him, but said nothing, simply following him. It did make her angry when he falsely accused her. But it was also true that she sometimes hid her phone.
It is not true at all. I didn't hide anything from him. It's just that day I was reading a dark romance book online which my friends recommended, and I was quite embarrassed to show him. And two days ago, I hid it because my school classmate, who I don't even talk to, was commenting on all my social media with flirting lines and flirtatious words, which was funny to read, that's all. Plus, I don't understand him; I don't reply to his comments, nothing, but still, he messages me every day 'good morning,' 'good night,' and so on. That's why, out of pity, I replied and talked with him. It's not like what brother thinks. They are just my schoolmates, that's all. And not only that, many other guys also try to pursue me and talk to me, but it doesn't mean anything. I mostly ignore them, but I didn't know what got into me to hide my phone behind my back that day since Sky knew I talk with other guys. It's probably because I thought Mother had entered the room. Sillia mentally rehearsed thousands of excuses and explanations to lecture him later.
A Station and a Scolding
Both stepped off the bus. Sky walked into the station and found a good place to sit and wait since their aunt and uncle had yet to arrive.
"Well, we can wait here," Sky said as they sat down on a bench on the platform.
"Hmm… how long do we have to wait?" Sillia asked.
"Not much, the train will soon arrive."
"Hmm… do you know, when you went to pee when we got here…?" Sillia began, looking at him.
"Hmm?"
"A taxi driver outside the station directly snatched our suitcase and was about to put it in his taxi without my permission. I was so scared at that time," Sillia said. Sky raised his eyebrows.
"Well, it's common for them to do so, to get their customer into their car without any trouble. You just need to tell them no with a strict tone. As for snatching without your permission… Well, it's not quite a developed place, Sillia. Plus, why the hell didn't you tell me about this before?" Sky asked, his tone a little angry, his eyes narrowed.
"I don't think it's that problematic to tell you," Sillia replied.
"Not problematic? You just said you were scared, and now it's not problematic. But I do understand why you suddenly seemed a little scared. And I definitely don't like it. Why didn't you tell me this at the time?" Sky's voice grew strict, his eyes cold.
"This is why you get angry," Sillia said mockingly.
"I get angry? If I don't get angry, then what should I do? Huh? Should I be happy that you were scared or something? I guess I need to lecture you that if you feel something awkward, then tell me when I'm around. But no, you think I get angry. How many times have I even asked you, but no response?" Sky's tone became aggressive, making her a little awkward to be scolded in a public place.
"Okay… sorry, stop. It's my fault I didn't tell you, now don't scold me here," Sillia said, irritated.
"I am scolding you? Hiss…" Sky hissed, clenching his fist tightly before slowly reopening it. He then said calmly, "I am not scolding you, girl, I am making you understand not every place is good and safe. And you not telling me when something happened to you makes me angry. You didn't understand how worried I was at that time. I haven't shown it to you, but when you were acting like that, I was not happy, not happy at all." Sky spoke directly, seriousness lacing his voice, though Sillia still managed to misunderstand him.
"Okay… I understand, now stop overreacting," Sillia said with a sigh, thinking Sky was overreacting. Her words genuinely pissed him off a little.
"Why did you even come here today? Huh?" Sky asked, his irritation palpable.
Oh shit, I messed up a little bit too much? Sillia thought, but maintained her composure. "Because I was bored."
"OH, then were you done using your phone to get bored?"
"You want to start a fight here with me?" Sillia asked, her tone also growing a little pissed off. Sky immediately denied.
"No, of course not," Sky replied calmly, merely trying to teach her a lesson, not truly angry.
"That's good…" Sillia nodded with satisfaction.
"But I do hope you understand my concern," Sky said calmly, his voice deep.
"I do…" Sillia replied calmly. And because of that, I haven't told you about it at that time.
Because more than my concern, I was worried that you would get more worried and angry. Who knows, you might even go to that taxi driver to fight with him. Since I know your nature, brother, I don't want to make you worried because of me. Sillia thought, smiling to herself. She felt quite good and relieved after telling him, even if it was a little late, it put her more at ease.
"Excuse me… You are really that person, right?" Suddenly, a woman's voice broke through, drawing both their attention.
' Huh..?' Sky looked little surprised this beautiful lady's sudden appearance. ' Are you talking to me..?'Sky asked.
' What the hell..who is this woman now..? Last time in the fair now in station..Don't tell me brother is a playboy..?' Sillia thought as she got surprised by this lady.
' Yes, yes..Are you really that person who helped me that day..?' That lady asked, as Sky didn't recognized at first but then realized it was the same lady who's thing got stolen by a theif and Sky helped her obtaining her item.
