Unable to easily continue speaking, Yurisien, Benjamin, playfully flicked his bandaged hand and asked.
“Well, what about you?”
“…Me? What about me?”
“Tell me your feelings. Without missing a single drop, without leaking anything, every grain of sand.”
“I, um… I don’t really understand what you’re talking about.”
“That’s what I mean.”
Benjamin, holding Yurisien’s shoulder with his bandaged hand, lifted his head and met her gaze quietly.
“Did you start liking me because I’m your lifesaver?”
“That… I…”
In front of Yurisien’s eyes, the current Benjamin and the sun that had swum toward me 15 years ago overlapped. However, a little later, Yurisien turned her head sideways.
“It was Crown Prince Heathcliff who said that. But…”
“But?”
“Before I knew the truth… No matter how drunk I was, I couldn’t… with His Highness…”
The more she spoke, the more embarrassed she became, and her voice became quieter. But Benjamin didn’t back off at all, as if he intended to meticulously expose even the tiniest speck of dust. Eventually, with a reddened face, Yurisien whispered.
“I, I wanted to… kiss. It seems that’s what happened. I didn’t know why.”
Yurisien, who spit out her inner thoughts as if vomiting, seemed at a loss. Waving a fan, her face flushed, hot, and Benjamin barely swallowed a teasing smile.
‘It’s hard.’
He thought that facial expression management was his specialty and weapon, but there was nothing easy in front of Yurisien. It’s probably because she is so small and precious.
People in the Solserion Empire said Yurisien was tall, thin, and thorny, and that she lacked cute charm, but strangely, in Benjamin’s eyes, she looked adorable like a tiny animal.
‘Cute…’
It’s so cute that I feel like I’m going to die. I just want to cry because Yurisien is cute. It seems like I could put it on my palm or put it in my pocket. No, I’d rather do that. I want to monopolize Yurisien’s cute figure…
“Uh…”
When Benjamin didn’t say anything and just stared, Yurisien glanced at him with a faint smile. Even though he wanted to tease her a bit more, he asked, rubbing his bandaged hand playfully.
“Do you have any guesses?”
“That… no.”
She simply realized that this is how it turned out when she regained her senses. Only his mature and leisurely appearance, his smooth and free movements, and other free aspects came to mind.
‘I thought I wanted to resemble him every time.’
The Yurisien she had in mind finally realized what Benjamin wanted to say. When a glimmer of enlightenment passed through Yurisien’s eyes, Benjamin raised the corners of his mouth leisurely.
“You don’t have to fall in love at first sight. I thought so, but if you ask me if I’m still in love like that moment, it’s not true. I have, Yurisien. I’ve thought a lot about you.”
“……. ”
“I became very curious about you. So, I wanted to see you, and I did. I collected a lot of stories about you. Obsessively and persistently.”
Benjamin’s playful voice lowered a bit.
“Just like I did, you fell in love at the moment of salvation and, when you realized that you misunderstood the person as my stepbrother, there were times when I resented the times when I was curious about you. I even insulted you, calling you a dull child.”
Honest words poured out to Yurisien without filtering. Yurisien held onto her throbbing heart and listened to Benjamin’s story.
“But the more I did that, the more intense my thirst for you became. My love for you deepened like that. Denying the catalyst and just concentrating on you, wanting to know more about you afterward… That became my driving force. Do you understand?”
Each word delivered in a grave voice struck deep into Yurisien’s heart. Yurisien gazed quietly as if wandering through Benjamin’s eyes.
‘My heart… feels overwhelmed.’
Benjamin’s way of speaking was good. Benjamin’s style of providing comfort and enlightenment was good. Yurisien released her grip on the fan and hugged Benjamin. Benjamin gently released his grip on the fan, embracing Yurisien. He affectionately said,
“I like you.”
Not liking the words you said when you were young, but liking you. That’s why I don’t resent you for loving someone else anymore.
