[Shinai Indigo] 
Assuming that the framed false appearance of someone’s character was the truth about him- his being. Labeling someone as a good individual because he put up that nice persona in front of you. You. You who was still young. Weren’t tainted by the darker side of people- blindly trusted what was presented in front of you. 
The twaddle I am listening at the moment made me think about these-reminded me of the rotten story I considered gone. It is not worth my time to listen about what Roone is talking about- but here I am. All smiles- while looking at the couple in front of me. Can’t deny the sparkle I see in both of their eyes- looking so please to be seated beside each other. The prolonged eye control- not breaking the gazes. They’re in love. Or am I wrong?
Can they stand the test of time? Will they become the couple winning the prize for staying together, forever? If only I am here to witness their loving ecstatic actions towards each other. The moment I heard his name. And when Roone started to talk about how he saw him again. The darker part of my emotional fluctuations were brought to the surface. I absorb the cool beverage- listening to the conversation. The bad mood I felt slightly made me feel better. Syrupy- tastes saccharine. I like this. 
“He still is a sweet guy.” Roone looking so aglow- putting such effort from the way he spoke about him. 
The minimum amount of tolerance I felt- somehow starts to leave my body. With having a fair warning- of course. I disguise myself- expression faker than even. Looking like I am loving it. Although I want to put this lady’s finger in my friend’s mouth to stop him from taking about that guy.
“Is Roone telling the truth? That Raven is a sweet little angel when he was younger?” Russell’s interest can be seen on his face. 
I think there’s something wrong from the numbness I felt from my cheekbones down to my neck. I can’t seem to move my mouth to say a word. I looked at the two of them- both are looking expectant that I would say something that will back up Roone’s perception of that guy. Is my jaw locked? I touched the edge of my lower chin to make sure that it can still be shaken. I solidly straightened my back- and twitched my lip. I didn’t give them an answer right away- just to make sure that I can naturally vomit something nasty with a stable voice. 
“No. He is a devil varnishing himself in the form of an angel. He is the human representation of how a devil acts to mess with someone’s head. A pretentious liar- hiding his darkness too well. Making himself appear in such splendid demeanor- devoting himself to act too virtuous.” The roughness of every word I have spoken- I think I am proud to finally spew these out of my mouth. 
These words that I wasn’t able to say to him back then- I finally let it out. I still can’t get over the pain of his rejection. I stared at the these two- their mouths are gaping in shocked with the way I reacted. I have no intention of taking back my words. Once I interpose my own opinion- especially about him. I will never downplay my own words. 
“I never see you this rough, Nai.”
Russel nodded his head approvingly towards what Roone commented. “Yeah- I wasn’t expecting this too.” 
“Patronizing him. He doesn’t deserve that, Roone. And by the way- are you forgetting something? Want me to sensationalized my hatred this instant? To shake some memory?” I munched the cookie after saying it. Chocolate-chip cookies. Jordan will love these. I shall buy him some after this meeting. He will definitely love these. He is such a fan of any food-as long it has a mixture of chocolate on it. I smiled- fixating my gaze as I held the cookie. Putting it in the palm of my hand. 
“Her mood swings are on fire today, hon.” I heard Roone’s voice as he addressed it to Russel. 
“I think she’s in love?” Russel added. 
“In love with the cookies?” Roone responded unsurely. I let them continue talking. They ended up talking about other things- forgetting about him. Well- that’s good. Because I don’t want to spend my entire day carrying the morbid disgust that invaded my head space. 
I drove to my soon to be sister-in-law’s house to talk about their marriage arrangements. Rang the door bell to make my presence known- although I never told her that I am doing a surprise visit today. 
Sunny is such a sweetheart. I can never understand her reasons why she chose my goblin brother out of all the guys that courted her. 
A smile appeared on my face. Of course- she’ll choose him. She deserves to be cherished by a loving and supporting man- and my brother is that kind of man. Besides, I am at peace knowing that Sunny loves him too. All those romantic gestures that we mutually agreed to be done by him didn’t go to the trash basket after all. It worked out. Those nights we spend to plan what he will do the next day to get her attention. 
I smiled at myself. Lucky for him my friend is appreciative enough to love every single one of it. Lucky for her someone was willing to pour his effort in showing his undying love. And lucky for them because the Universe orchestrated and made a romantic union that include the two of them. It was benevolent enough to let them be together. No big dramas- no exaggerate dilemmas to be faced. A smooth sailing ride given to two people worth receiving the love they deserve to have. 
“Hello!” They both said in unison. A keen sense of greeting from my brother and my found sister feels great. 
“Hey there,my lovely pair.” Sunny pulled my hand while my brother did the job of closing the gate for us. 
“So, how’s your day?” She asked with such enthusiasm that I don’t want to ruin. The heated anger that rose lately this morning is something I don’t want to share.
“I bought him cookies.” My gaze remained unshaken towards the cookies placed neatly. “It reminded me of him. The thought of buying it for him came into my mind. Compare to his lavish behavior towards me— this is the least that I can do.” I shared at my best friend. 
Sunny looks enlightened with the words she listened into. “Nai, you’re doing enough too. Don’t devalue your efforts.” 
We settled ourselves in the sofa bed. Her living room looks unblemished. The refreshing lavender smell makes the atmosphere more relaxing. Furniture adeptly arranged—positioned to its fitting place. Mordernly casual and calm— just like its owner. My brother emerged bringing us the goodies from his fiance’skitchen. He satisfyingly put it into the centre table. My brother is stable and grounded. They are doubtlessly that pair suitable for a peace loving type of household. 
“Please, love each other until the very end. Profess to keep your vows to eternity, okay?” Whenever I see couple like them who are happily in love and contented with their counterparts— brings me a heartwarming feeling. It always does brings me joy. Their sense of devotedness, the passionate love for each other, the inclination of williness to prioritize eacj other. They are both very admirable- for they can do it for each other. I am the witness. My eyes perceive everything good that they both did together as a couple. I want them to stay like that- to preserve the spectacular connection so rare that these two people possessed.
They both smiled lightheartedly. 
“She’s unbelievably awesome. Is she really your sister, love?” Sunny chuckled soflty. Followed by my own brother’s chuckling.
“She is, baby. That’s my sister you’re talking about. She is amazing. But she tends to forget about it sometimes.” 
“We are here. We’re here to remind her of her awesomeness.” She chirped beamly.
Chemeric comments like these- I smiled at the two of them. “You two fancy me too much.” I fondly respond. My two favorite people in the world. About to be wedded to each other. I like it more than ever. 
“We both do. Especially Edon.” My brother teasingly pester. “Cut him some slack, Princess. You’re still holding back from showing him what you truly feel for him. You can show that man some real love.” He smiled before striking his fiance with loving kisses on her cheeks.
