36. The sequel datting

-The Best Valentine-

Entering the bird's nest, the fire is like burning yourself.

----------------------------------

Maura let go of her grip as they walked down the corridor. Let people whisper in their direction.

Today Maura openly admits that she avoided being in public just because she was afraid that her cousin would gang up on Erlang.

Maura took a deep breath. Erlang still didn't make a sound, the man seemed resigned to being carried anywhere by her.

"Sorry.." Maura whispered.

Now they were far from the cafeteria. Erlang still faithfully walked beside her, even though now they were not holding hands anymore.

"Sorry about my brother. Shit!! I'm really lazy to admit that this crooked man is my brother," Maura exclaimed.

"Why should you apologize?"

"He's bothering you!!" it's not a question but a statement.

Maura saw it with her own eyes, if she didn't scream maybe Gio the barman would have hit Erlang.
