Chapter 5.1

[Di Di]

I immediately accepted Restia's call while calmly placing my phone in my ear.

"You— heartless monster…! You blacklisted my passport! How could you do that to me…!?" Restia yelled.

"…If I don't, you won't at least listen to me."

"Okay, I'm listening. YOU HAPPY NOW?"

…Though she's still angry, but at least she's willing to talk now.

First, I need to quench her anger.

"I'm sorry… Restia." I said to her.

"………………Uuhhhhh…"

She's shaken. I just need one more push.

"Please… forgive this idiot of a brother." I murmured.

"…(Sniff)…… (Hic)… Uwahhhhhh………………"

Like a balloon bursting, Restia cried as much as she could.

It stung my heart— like I was getting pierced by multiple needles.

…Because I could tell that her cries had a mixture of pain, frustration and relief.

"…………………(Hic)……"

Finally, Restia calms down.

"…Restia." I murmured.

"…Shut up." She uttered. "……you heartless monster."
