Chapter 621: I Think I Am Really In Love With You
William Von Ainsworth, that was his na.
I ca to know about it after I mustered my courage and asked for his na. Strange, it was such a good na, how did I forget it? How could I possibly forget the na of the person, who extended his hand to when I needed it the most?
Okay! This ti, I will not forget his na. I will rember it with all of my heart!
“Big Brother, when are we going to leave?” I asked. “I don’t have much luggage with , so we can leave anyti.”
Big Brother, Ian, and Princess Sidonie looked at at the sa ti.
Um? Why are the three of you looking at like that? Isn’t it a given that I will follow Big Brother wherever he goes?
From what I could gather from our earlier conversation, he was planning to climb a tower nad Babylon. This was the first ti that I had heard about such a place, but that didn’t matter. As long as I was with Big Brother, any place we went would be wonderful!
“We?” Big Brother looked at with a dumbfounded expression. “Sorry, Chiffon. I will not be taking you with either.”
I tilted my head in confusion, because I thought that I misheard Big Brother’s words.
“You’re not taking ?” I asked.
“No,” Big Brother answered. “Stay here in the academy with Ian and Sidonie. They will look after you while I’m away.”
I didn’t know what expression I was making, nor did I care. Only Big Brother’s rejection echoed in my mind.
‘Why? I’ve been a good girl. I did everything right. Why are you leaving behind?’
These were the things that I wanted to say out loud, but I wasn’t able to do it. I felt light headed, and Big Brother’s next words made feel as if the ground under my feet was being torn apart.
‘Did he say that he is going to be away for a month? What will I do then? Wait for him to return? What if he doesn’t return? What if he just leaves behind?’
‘Am I going to be abandoned once again? No! I didn’t want to be alone! I don’t want to be alone!’
It was at that precise mont when I felt a gaping hole inside my heart. This was similar to the feeling I had when my mother died. This was the feeling of parting with soone forever.
“Big Brother, you’re going to leave ?” I asked in a desperate attempt to convince Big Brother to take with him to the Tower of Babylon. “You’re going to leave alone?”
I watched as Big Brother wiped away the tears in my eyes, and assured that Ian and Princess Sidonie would look after .
But, I didn’t want them to look after . I only want to be with Big Brother.
My mother once told what falling in love felt like. She said that love was a feeling that makes you feel that you were unable to live without that person by your side. Being apart from the one you love would make your heart ache.
Simply put, it was a painful experience.
Yes. It is very painful. Right now, I feel like my heart is breaking.
‘I don’t want Big Brother to leave ,’ I thought. Deep inside, I know that there was only one thing that I could do in order to make Big Brother and I stay by each other’s side forever.
Yes. There was only one way.
Just thinking about it made feel hungry.
‘Big Brother… I want to eat you…’
That was the last thought in my head before Big Brother grabbed hold of and took to a place I hadn’t seen before.
The place was very beautiful. There was a house near the sea, and it gave a very relaxing feeling.
‘Um? Big Brother? Where are you going? Why are you running away? Don’t run. Let just take a bite, I promise it won’t hurt!’
When I ca around, I couldn’t see anything. I thought I still had my eyes closed, so I opened them wide.
But, nothing changed.
Darkness…
Darkness as far as I could see…
It was one of the saddest things in my mories…
I didn’t know how long I stayed in that dark, and lonely world.
It could have been a few minutes.
It could have been hours.
Days…
Months…
Perhaps, even years had passed.
I wanted to lay down, close my eyes, and just sleep forever. Maybe the next ti I opened my eyes, I would be with my mother again. I missed her terribly. If possible, I wanted to be with her again.
As I was about to lay down on the ground, I saw light in the distance. The light was very small, just like the light of a candle that could disappear at any mont.
‘It must be an illusion,’ I thought. ‘I should just lie down and sleep.’
However, the light expanded and it was drawing closer to .
When I saw that familiar red hair, and those beautiful green eyes filled with worry, I felt like crying.
That’s what I did.
I cried.
Not long after that, I found myself enclosed in a tight embrace.
It felt warm, it felt nice, it felt safe, it felt like love.
“Big Brother, please, don’t leave ,” I pleaded. My voice sounded very weak because I felt really exhausted. In fact, if Big Brother wasn’t supporting , I would definitely collapse on the ground due to how weak my knees were.
“I promise that I’ll be a good girl, so, please, don’t leave behind.” I held him as tightly as I could, but I didn’t have enough strength. I could feel my grip weakening, and my consciousness was failing .
Just before I closed my eyes to sleep, I heard Big Brother’s words that were filled with tenderness.
“Okay. I won’t leave you behind. I promise,” Big Brother replied. I could feel his embrace getting tighter. It was as if he was unwilling to let go.
‘Big Brother, I think I am really in love with you.’
That was the last thing I thought before I fell asleep in his embrace.

The Guardian who was observing Chiffon from the Heavens smiled. He could tell that the pink-haired girl was at the last phase of her Heart Devil. The red crystal floating above her chest was now littered with cracks.
The light inside it was very bright. Bright enough to illuminate the desolate plane where he currently resided.
The Final Phase of the Heart Devil was to make the person feel very happy, at least, for a brief period of ti.
When that happiness reached a turning point, that was when the Heart Devil would strike, and shatter that happiness into a thousand pieces.
The Guardian pointed his finger, and a red beam of light shot out from its tip. This beam hit Chiffon’s red crystal and made it glow brighter.
The Guardian was multiplying the power of the Heart Devil, to ensure that when Chiffon’s heart finally broke, her body and soul would completely belong to him.
