Rosalie nodded in understanding.
I guess that's why he answered that way earlier.
She didn't really care who was the older sibling between her housemate and the man in front of her. What she wanted to know was something else.
"Is she not here?" asked Rosalie.
There was no need to know who the 'she' Rosalie was talking about. There was no other but the missing housemate she hadn't even had a glimpse of.
Kallix felt a stifle in his chest. "... You're right. My sister left before you got down."
"That won't do." Rosalie shook her head smilingly. "We're going to live together from now on. We should get to know each other."
Kallox's Adam's apple bobbed up and down. He found himself at a loss.
Lying could've been easier, but facing Rosalie's bright and innocent face made him unable to do it.
Besides, since when did he become such a liar?
"Actually, my sister won't come."
