"I hope you will be responsible for me!"
Rhode twitched his brows. It wasn't out of surprise. Instead, he just felt exceptionally reminiscent. When was the last time I heard this? Come to think of it, it has been a long while…
He couldn't be blamed because there were countless girls who said the same thing to him in school—all of whom he had rejected. Of course, this disrupted his school life, but he never reflected upon himself. He believed that he didn't cheat their feelings or lie to them by saying "I love you forever; please marry me" or "I will take care and be responsible for you" before laying hands on them.
