AQUARIUM

"RYM! I was wrong! I shouldn't have said that, okay? Okay? Nothing will happen to Yasa. She'll wake up, okay?" She shoved him away as he tried to coax her, he doesn't want to hear her say these things from her. She couldn't be depressed at times like this.

"Yasa won't leave me! If she leaves--- if she leaves... WHY AM I STILL WORKING HARD TO BE AN ACTRESS?! IT WAS YASA'S DREAM OF BECOMING AN ARTIST! THAT'S WHY I AM WORKING SO HARD! I WON'T EVEN LET ALVAN TOUCH ME IF NOT FOR THIS CAREER! I won't even think of sacrificing my body to him!"

"AND I WILL NOT LET ALYX ABUSE OR DISRESPECT ME! Treating me as his prostitute, no! I could even give you up for her, even though I like you a lot. YASA IS MY SOLE REASON TO BE ALIVE! SO WHY WOULD YOU SAY SHE IS DEAD?!" She exclaimed more boisterously than she could and her sobs could be heard. Her expression showed that she was having difficulty breathing and speaking due to crying so much. "YOU WANT ME TO DIE TOO?!"

"No! I don't, I take it back, Rym, I didn't---"

"You want me to die!" She whacked his chest repeatedly until Kane grabbed her hands and appeased her by caging her body in his arms.

Kane didn't know what to do to soothe her. He was used to her smiling and always sweet behavior. Her being agitated, he was flustered. He knew that she loved her twin sister so much, but he didn't expect that she thought of Yarisa this important.

"You want me to die! Let me go!"

"NO! I was wrong, Yanarym, I was wrong. I'm the bastard, I was lying, she's sleeping, alright? You need to calm down. She'll hear you getting angry. Yasa hates it when you're angry right? Let's calm down, what if Yasa hears you? " The girl in front sniffed and traced her calmness. Kane slowly approached her and stroked her arm.

"Y-you ... said sh-she's dead." She said sobbing and like a child, he immediately shook his head.

"No, not dead. I said she's brain dead. It's a state of mind but she's breathing and her heart is beating. I was wrong, okay? I shouldn't have said that."

"I will die if she dies! DON'T SAY THAT SHE'S DEAD!" Yanarym added, he nodded and cajoled her again.

"I will never do it again, I'm sorry," Kane uttered to her. She continued to cry and sometimes pushed his hand away but that didn't stop him from putting his hand on her back.

Guide-sama: "Yanarym, the brothers have left."

Yanarym discreetly grinned at what she heard from Guide-sama. All of the workshops and personal coaching have come to fruition. If she hadn't died and transferred to this world, she wouldn't know she had a knack for acting. Yanarym praised herself, beautiful and gifted. What more could she ask for?

Guide-sama: "...what's your next plan now Yanarym? They have heard everything including your confession."

"Which one? The one about Alvan where I only used him to gain popularity? Tss, even if I don't tell Alvan about it, out of the three men, he is the one who knew it very well. I never failed to make him feel disregardable."

Guide-sama: "Disregardable, is that even a word? Even so, you're too cruel to make him feel disregarded." Yanarym feigns ignorance to Guide-sama's remark.

"As for Alyx's torture scene yesterday, hmm, how do I say it? I don't mind really? I had fun with the role-play of being a victim."

Guide-sama: "..."

"And! Alyx was indeed very wild last night, like an actual ra-pe scene, he can't deny that fact. He also admitted what he did was wrong."

"My answer to your question is about what should I do next?" She laughs at her mind, "Now that they have all fallen into the trap, it's time to move them to my aquarium."

Guide-sama: "I don't understand, especially the net, fish, and aquarium, I don't get it."

"Okay, I'll explain it to you, listen carefully."

Guide-sama: "... okay."

"I read a webtoon, you know, Yanarym version 1.0."

"In that webtoon, the female lead, FL, was the minor villain of the original plot, it seems, like me, FL was also a transmigrator. Then, the real female protagonist of the story, the fisherwoman collects fish. Those fish were the male leads. Never mind who was the main-male lead, there is no first, second or third male lead. And they are not really fishes and fishers, it just equates to their role something like that."

"All the male leads have different personalities, attitudes, and status. A prince, a knight, and a magician. The fishes were free, so the fisherwoman will catch them, which is the true FL, not the FL transmigrator."

"Once the fishes were caught by the true FL, it means, they've fallen in love with FL. Once they're in the aquarium, it means, FL has total control over the hearts of the male leads."

"So if I encounter some reverse harem genre, I would automatically think it's fishing time. And it's funny because I didn't expect to have my own fish and aquarium after I died."

Guide-sama: "I found it weird, why does it have to be fish? When most of the time, male species were compared to dogs?"

Yanarym: "..."

Guide-sama: "Don't you think so too?"

"I agree."

After Yanarym's OSCAR performance, she fell asleep in the exhaustion of crying. Kane laid her on the wide sofa and put a barrier at the end of it, in case she would move around in her sleep and fall. After covering her in a blanket, he rushed out to the Operating Room. Though he wanted to stay by her side, he was still on duty, he had to do his job and be responsible.

An hour after Kane left the room, a man came in and placed the bouquet of white roses on the side table of Yanarym's twin sister's hospital bed.
