"Maggie, why haven't you seen your brother coming for you these days? Has he left the royal capital? ”

After lunch, Ratchet turned to Maggie next to her while cleaning up the books on the table.

"Ahh ”

Rakhi smiled softly and said, "I see that you are often absent-minded these days, so I wondered if it had something to do with your brother." ”

"Nothing." Maggie's face blushed slightly and whispered, "It's just that I've been thinking about the arrangements for the academy's anniversary festival recently. ”

"Oh?" Rathi stretched her voice close to her little face and said, "Then why do you often smirk when you are alone?" ”

"Rachi, you-"

As if she had been pierced by her heart, Maggie was a little stunned and shy, and stared at Ratchee with her round eyes.

"Haha-" Ratchet smirked, "Is there anything unspeakable between you and your brother?" Why else is it so strange? ”

"Nothing." Maggie's hands swayed a little flustered: "It's just that it's lonely to study in the royal capital, and I never thought that someone would come to visit me, that's whyβ€”"

"Is that so?" Ratchet said with a smile as she stared into Maggie's eyes.

Somewhat embarrassed by Rakhi's eyes, Maggie lowered her head and whispered, "Really." ”

Laki shook her head, patted Maggie's soft shoulder and said, "Okay, I won't tease you, but if you have anything on your mind, you must tell me, don't forget that there are still people around you who care." ”

"Thank you, Ratche." Maggie looked up and looked grateful.

"Yo-"

Yavis raised his hand from the front row and walked over to say hello, "What are you talking about?" ”

"It's none of your business." When Laki saw that it was Yavis, her face instantly turned cold and snorted softly: "Busy man, if you have time to care about this, you might as well think about your association activities." ”

Hearing the thorn in Laqi's words, Yavis's face was a little bad and said, "Laqi, I know I've been cold to you recently, and here I apologize first-"

"Stop-" Ratchet stretched out her hand to stop Yavis's words, "What do you mean by being cold to me, what does it matter to me whether you are cold or not?" Doesn't seem like you need to apologize? ”

"You!" Yavis frowned, his face tense, and his eyes looked at Raki with anger, "Raki, you're enough!" ”

"What do you mean I'm enough? I think you've had enough! Raki stood up, slapped her hands on the table and confronted Yavis.

The sound of the quarrel made the classmates who had not yet left come forward to dissuade them, although the people around them were no strangers to the relationship between Raki and Yavis, and there were frequent fights, but this time the situation seemed to be overflowing with anger, and the problem was a little bigger.

"Unreasonable!" Yavis, who was pulled away by his classmates, shook his hand angrily and left.

"Rakhi-" Maggie came back to her senses in shock by the scene just now, and pulled her little hand at the lost Raghi who bowed her head next to her and said, "Are you okay?" ”

Raki looked up at Maggie, a wry smile on her cheeks, a slight tear in the corner of her eye.

Soon, Ratchey wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and took a deep breath and said to her, "Don't worry, I'm fine." ”

How can it be okay like this?

Maggie thought to herself, but she couldn't think of any comforting words at this time.

"Let's go, let's have lunch together."

Raki left her seat, and Maggie followed.

On the road.

"Rathi, are you and Yavis really okay?" Maggie said cautiously.

"Hehe-" Raki shook her head with a smile on her face, "It's okay, you also know that the temper of the two of us comes and goes quickly." ”

"Butβ€”" Maggie bit her thin lip and said, "Recently, you have started arguing every time you don't say a word, it's really abnormal, it's not like you used to be." ”

Laki stopped, put her hands on Maggie's shoulders, and said with a serious expression: "Maggie, I know Yavis better than anyone else, although he is a little impetuous, but in fact he is a man with strong self-esteem, whether it is his career or love. ”

I closed my eyes and breathed a sigh of relief.

Opening his eyes, Laqi continued: "The ghost club he joined recently was suddenly promoted to the backbone, he seems to have received unprecedented attention, all his thoughts are placed there, I don't say anything about this, because it is commendable for a man to work hard for a cause, but, what kind of bullshit career is that ghost club!" And most importantly, he also exposed his true attitude towards me because of that school. ”

"What attitude?" Maggie asked, dumbfounded.

Because she had never seen Ratchee like this.

Rude, strict sΓΉ.

"As I said, Yavis is actually a man with a lot of self-esteem." Laki gasped slightly, "I thought that my relationship with him for more than ten years was enough for him to let go of these treats on me, and before this, he had always been like this." ”

"So not now?" Maggie then wondered.

"Of course!" Laqi sneered unconsciously and said: "In fact, the self-esteem in his bones refuses to bow to women, even for the lover he has been in a relationship for more than ten years, haven't you noticed it recently?" His patience with me grew worse and worse, and he left angrily after a few words. ”

"It seems like that." Maggie shrank down with some trepidation, looked at the terrifying expression that Raki rarely appeared, and said carefully: "But Rakhi, if you don't say a few prickly words, and encourage and comfort you more, maybe your relationship will get better." ”

"No way!" Raki turned around and sneered, "Isn't that what he wanted?" He wants me to be an obedient lover, and I should do everything according to his words, so should I lose my self and let him knead it? ”

"Thisβ€”" Maggie covered her mouth in disbelief.

"Maggie." Ratchet shook her head, turned to look at her again and said seriously, "Women are not vassals of men, playthings. We have to prove our worth in life, ziyou. ”

Maggie hung her head and fell silent, Ratche's words had a big impact on her, because she had never thought about it.

There is no shortage of outstanding women in EldrΓ‘n's history, but there are very few, and it is more like a distant legend, a story.

And there are even fewer such women around, or rather, no.

When such a woman appears, people will forget her femininity, as if they have lost their qualifications as a woman.

"Raki, are you and Yavis at a stalemate like this?" Diverting the thoughts swirling in her mind, Maggie looked up at her.

Ratchee sighed and said, "Because I am also a woman with strong self-esteem, when someone between the two of us puts down that self-esteem, maybe we may be reconciled between us." ”

Maggie shook her head, she was different from these girls from aristocratic families, each of them had different environmental conditions, and it was difficult to resonate with their ideological values.

"Maggie, why don't you tell me about your brother?"

Maybe the atmosphere was too heavy, Ratchey quipped with a smile on her face.

"He?"

Maggie's little hands tangle and rub the hem of her clothes, and she wondered if she wanted to confess to Raghi.

When you share a secret with someone else, you will always want to give it back.

Because then there will be no emotional debt between the two.

"I don't want to say it's okay." Seeing Maggie's appearance, Ratchee waved her hand and smiled.

"Noβ€”" Maggie clenched her fists and blushed, "I'm just trying to start somewhere." ”

"Then let's start when you met." Laqi said with a smile.

"Okay."

Maggie calmed down, her eyes drifted to the clear and warm sky and said slowly: "I remember that I was only a teenager that year, and I lived a dull life in the town of Foka with my father and mother, but one day a disease suddenly appeared in the town and infected many people, and my father was one of them, and the church personnel and pharmacists who rushed to the town to treat him were helpless, and my mother knew that my grandfather might be able to treat my father, so I hurriedly wrote a letter to my grandfather for help, but my grandfather was late until after my father died. ”

"So you hate your grandfather?" Ratchet in.

"Yes." Maggie nodded, and said in a low voice, "If Grandpa had arrived in time, maybe Father wouldn't have died." ”

"What does that have to do with your brother?" Ratchet wondered.

"After my father's death, my mother and I were very sad, and in order not to stay in this sad place, my mother sold everything in the family, and she wanted to take me back to my mother's family." The memories of the past seemed to evoke Maggie's sadness, and her voice was weak and choked: "On the way back with the caravan, a group of bandits suddenly appeared and killed everyone, and when they wanted to defile me and my mother, Brother Charan appeared. ”

Ratchet sighed softly, reached out and took Maggie in her arms and stroked her, this was the first time she had heard of her past after knowing Maggie for so long.

That's a lot to look back on.

"And then?" Raki looked at Maggie with tears in her eyes and said softly.

"Laterβ€”" Maggie said excitedly, "Brother Charan cut off the heads of several bandits who were close to me and my mother as soon as he appeared, he was very fast, his sword was fast, and then he killed those bandits in the blink of an eye, and even now I remember the cruel scene of blood and corpses. ”

"It seems that little Maggie had a deep admiration for your brother at that time, right?" Raki quipped.

She needs to get Maggie out of her sad memories, and she can't help but drum up her other feelings.

"Yes." Maggie nodded embarrassedly and said, "At that time, my mother and I were frightened, and even thought that Brother Xia Lan would kill us together, but he didn't, but escorted us all the way back to the town of Foca, although he looked very cold, but he was really a good person." ”

"He's cold?" Raki remembered the young man's face and said in a puzzled tone.

"Hmm." Maggie looked at Raki and nodded, "Yes, at that time, his eyes seemed to have lost color, and his whole person was as cold as if he had no feelings. ”

"Butβ€”" Ratchee frowned slightly, "why did it make people feel warm the last time I saw him?" ”

Hearing Raghi's words, Maggie was a little embarrassed and said, "I don't know, after all, we haven't seen each other for more than three years after that, maybe something has changed at that time." ”

"I see." Ratchee nodded and said, "So you and your brother aren't really brother and sister?" ”

"Yes." Maggie looked down and said shyly.

Ratchee chuckled and said, "No wonder something didn't look right last time. ”

"Raghi." Maggie took her hand and pleaded, "Don't tell me about it." ”

"Don't worry." Laki patted Laqi's little head and smiled, "After all, it's a secret between us." ”

After lunch, the breeze was cool.

"Maggie, the day after tomorrow, you might as well invite your brother to join you."

Walking on the neat stone road back to the accommodation, Laqi looked up at the sky and said suddenly.

"Why?" Ratchee wondered.

"Haha-"

Ratchet laughed out loud and ran a few steps forward, looked back at Maggie and laughed, "Otherwise, how can you solve the longing for him in your heart!" ”

"Rakhi!"

A sound of shame and anger sounded in the vibrant and fresh academy.

The girls have their own hearts and minds, and they are ignorant and ignorant in pursuit of unknown dreams.

It is simply a hymn, echoing in the academy of youth.

In the black vortex they didn't know they knew existed, a stone would be thrown from them.

The result of the violent surge will be their thorough and profound memory.
