This is why he was so sweet with Kizy and Evie. He does not take Kizy as his teammate but more like his younger sister or even a little child. Nicole said, or more like thought out loud.

Hmmm. He has a soft spot for females since he lost his wife and baby girl. He would have never shouted or scolded you if not for your request about faking love. Rose concluded, thinking she had said enough.

With that she got up and turned to leave. She knew that Nicole must have known her mistake, as well as her misunderstanding regarding Victor.

Thank you. Nicole suddenly said, wiping her tears away.

Rose just patted on her shoulder before leaving with the empty bottles and glasses, intending to clean up her room.

Ill take my leave now. Nicole said after Rose came back, getting up to leave the room.

Dont go and apologise to the First brother now. He would still be in his angry mood. Maybe visit him in the morning when he has cooled down and in a state to think calmly about whatever you have to say. Rose said, knowing his First brother through and through..

Hmmm. Thank you once again for clearing my misunderstanding. Nicole said with a small smile before leaving.

Nicole came back to her room, still processing the entire story about Victor. That night she was unable to fall asleep, her thoughts revolving around Victor.

*VICTORs ROOM, MARKUSs HOUSE*

Victor was sitting on his bed, deep in his thoughts when he heard a knock on the door.

Come in. Victor said, wanting to know who was awake this late and that too wanted to meet him.

And surprisingly the person turned out to be Kizy.

Why are you still awake? It is very late at night and you have a job that you join early in the morning. Victor said in a reprimanding tone, immediately shifting to his role of an elder brother after watching the clock which showed 3 am.

I had some doubts. You can scold me if you want to though. Kozy said plainly while sitting beside Victor.

And why will I scold you? Victor asked.

Because of two things. First for the scene I played out with Nicole. I didnt expect it to turn out this way. Although I knew that grandpa and grandma would definitely doubt you to be that man, I had planned to keep you hidden and then plan a break up. But to save me from grandpas scolding, Nicole blurted your name. And I am equally wrong and responsible in this case. Kizy said, knowing that Nicole had already spoken with Victor.

Hmm. Victor simply hummed in response.

Secondly, I am apologising in advance for whatever doubts I am about to ask, because you are bound to be sad after hearing that. But I cant help it. I have tried everything in my control to help myself, but I can not continue this any longer. Kizy said, her voice ultimately sounding a little high pitched, all her emotions riled up.

You can always come to me, Second sister. You didnt have to struggle with whatever youre facing this long alone. You know I am always there for you, no matter whether I like your decision or not. Victor said, placing his hand on Kizys head, consoling her even before she could break down.

How how did you manage to survive after Anna left you? Kizy said before she ended up crying loudly.

Victor had frozen for a moment, listening to this name after eternity. But there was one thing he had decided.

Anna had always been the love of his life and she would remain the same. But he needed to move on. If he was to stay at the same place, then it was bound to hurt not only him but his friends and family as well.

Thus even when there was this lava of emotions boiling inside him, he had sealed them of forever, wanting to keep Anna as his forever sweet memory, as well as his biggest lesson of how he was not supposed to let any other person close to him die such death.

Thus the next minute, instead of thinking about Anna, who was already dead, he chose to help Kizy out who was crying right now in front of him.

Hey.. stop crying, second sister. Just tell me whatever it is but dont cry. You know I can never tolerate your tears. Victor said before wiping her tears away, though to no avail.

Kizy was literally crying buckets, as if all her riled up emotions could no longer remain in the bubble of coldness she had developed.

This.. this is getting even harder than than I imagined. I can not not survive without Markus. I.. I may be over.. overthinking but I can not ignore this feeling that he is in some.. some danger.. and I am the one who has caused caused it. Kizy said while crying even more badly, her emotions taking the best of her.

Stop crying first girl! You dont have to make it so hard for yourself. Dont blame yourself for something you havent even done. Stop crying now. Victor said, wiping her tears away before immediately rushing to get water for Kizy.

He had never seen this little sister of his, cry so much. She had always been a calm person to begin with. Thus even when Rose would be so dramatic on smallest of events, Kizy would remain composed.

Thus she crying this much meant she was truly heartbroken and now he could understand the depth of love she shared with Markus.

Here. He said before giving the glass of water to Kizy, which she drank a sip or two before choking on it and coughing.

Slowly slowly. Victor said before rubbing her back, sad to watch Kizy in this state.

Kizy cried for some more time before her crying eventually died after half an hour.

Sorry for being a crybaby and troubling you this late. Kizy said before getting up, knowing that it was already very late.

Stop. Suddenly Victor said, getting up along with Kizy.

Hope you all are liking the current plot. Thank you for reading!!
