Arumi left Mesya who was still frozen with watery eyes.
Arthur and Charles also left, only David was left, he looked at Mesya who slowly approached Denias.
"Come on, get up, hurry up!" said Mesya.
"Mesya, I'm sorry ... I have misunderstood you ...," said Denias.
"Hurry and go now, Denias! Save yourself!" said Mesya. She ignored Denias' apology.
"Akh...." Denias slowly got up even though was so difficult.
Then David also approached him.
"Here, let me help you," said David.
He supported Denias' body and carried him outside the gate.
He called a taxi and paid for it, then let Denias go by taxi car.
"Thank you, David...." Denias said weakly.
David just nodded.
After that, the car drove away from the Davies family residence.
David went back into the gate.
He met Mesya who was still silent with a sad face.
The girl doesn't know what to do?
The only thing she has to do is obey the words of her adoptive mother if she still wants Romi and her friends to be safe.
"Mesya ..." David said softly.
Slowly she turned to her.
"David, you are not going?" asked Mesya.
David shook his head.
"Why?" asked Mesya.
"... because I wanted to make sure you were okay," David replied.
Mesya raised her face and looked at David with a confused feeling.
Why is David, still here?
And why didn't leave her like the others?
Is it possible that now David will not wear a mask anymore?
I don't know, Mesya's heart keeps asking questions.
"David, why now, you don't scold me anymore?" Mesya asked with her face back down. Still not sure how to look at him.
David did not move, his eyes were so sad. Maybe it's time to be friendly towards Mesya.
"Do you think I'm the same as them?" David asked Mesya.
Mesya froze, she looked at David again with a confused look.
"I'm sorry, Mesya, maybe all this time I've been rude to you, and many times I have told you to leave this family. All my attitude was not without reason. And this is my reason," said David.
"What, you did all this because didn't want to see me broken like this?" Mesya asked to confirm, then David nodded again.
"It's true, all this time I've been trying to hate you and say something rude like this because I don't want you to be like me, Arthur, and Lizzy," concluded David.
"Lizzy?"
"Yes,"
"Sorry, what the hell happened to Lizzy?"
"Lizzy...."
"Is it true that he died in an accident?"
David shook his head, "No,"
"So?"
"Huft...." David sighed again to calm his mind for a moment, to muster up the courage to talk to Mesya.
But it seemed too difficult, David finally gave up and cried again.
David forgot all his authority.
So far people only see if David is a handsome and scary man. Even he seemed very arrogant with his cold attitude.
But behind that attitude, there is a wound so deep.
David is a man who lives under pressure.
He would continue to cry and feel devastated when he thought of Lizzy, his dead sister.
His sister's death changed his life drastically.
He was forced to obey the orders of his parents.
Become a murderer.
His life is different from humans in general. In addition, David also has to keep his distance so that no one becomes a victim of the family.
Until this moment, David is still not willing to lose Lizzy.
The little girl he loved so much and had to die because he was a victim of his uncle's greed.
David kept blaming himself, for failing to be a good big brother.
But what can you do, a runny boy like him, in the past could not do anything to fight the barbarity of his uncle.
Forever David was only haunted by guilt and sadness at the thought of his brother's fate.
"David, I will not force you to tell me everything, I already know that this family is not normal, maybe they are demons who live among ordinary humans. And you, is a human being forced to become a demon," concluded Mesya.
Mesya wiped the tears from David's face. "Cry to your heart's content, don't doubt if this can reduce your burden, even if only a little," said Mesya.
David hugged Mesya again.
Masya gently rubbed David's back, "I know that bad attitude, is just a cover so that you don't hurt other people, just wants to stay away from other humans, so that there are no more victims. I understand David, and sorry I just realized it, honestly, I used to hate you, because you weren't as friendly as Arthur, but now I like you because your heart is much better than the rotten Arthur," concluded Mesya.
After feeling calm, David finally told Mesya everything, including telling about Lizzy's death who was made a sacrifice by her uncle's family.
"My mother just wanted to kill my uncle's family because of revenge. But unfortunately, that revenge has now become a greedy attitude. Mother wants to be the only family who is the successor of her ancestral family," said David.
They had not left the backyard, they were sitting in a chair. The two teenagers were forgetting all their complaints, respectively.
"Thank you, David," said Mesya with a smile.
"Thank you for what?" David asked.
"Thank you, now you want to be my Brother," said Mesya with her sweet smile.
David immediately looked away.
He used to stay away from Mesya because he didn't want Mesya to have the same fate as Lizzy.
Every time he looked at Mesya's face, in his mind, it turned into Lizzy's face.
But the longer he gets to know Mesya, it turns out that Lizzy and Mesya are not the same.
His love is different.
Even Mesya's smile made David's heartbeat even faster.
His love is not the feeling of a brother for his sister.
But another feeling, a feeling of love...?
Dunno ... David still not sure....
Even though the reality of life is too bitter, even worse than expected, Mesya feels a little calm. Finally, her relationship with David had improved.
Now she doesn't feel alone in this house anymore.
At least she could tell David about her complaints.
Unlike before, her life feels special with fake affection. Mesya's heart still feels empty.
And even she was just like a doll who just stayed silent and became an obedient child.
Although until now she is still an obedient child for the Davies family.
In the deepest trough of Mesya's heart, she hopes that one day, she and David can be released from the clutches of the Davies family.
"Ehem! How long are you two going to be here?!" asked Arumi who suddenly appeared.
