Chapter 20

“You look happy wife. You look too excited to meet my brother.” Maru’s a bit annoyed.

I just gave him my sweetest smile.

I really am excited! I finally know why Maru’s brother sounds familiar, because I really know him!

He's my savior and my puppy love.

Flashback

While Maru is taking a bath, I feel uneasy. I called my mom to confirm something.

My mom answered my call in just one ring.

“Hello Mara!” She sounds happy.

“Mom did you know that Maru has a bother?” I ask her directly.

“Yes. Why?”

“Why didn’t you tell me?”

“Because you knew him already. You and Maru, I mean the older Maru knew each other. You were very close before.” She explained.

I feel so lost.

“Huh? I can’t remember him.”

“Remember when you were just 10 years old, you always tell us about him. That he help you one time when you almost broke the vase in the Ottave mansion?”

My eyes widen by the realization.

“Is that him?!” I almost shout my mom.
