Camilla looked at the blanket that had fallen from her shoulders, holding it in her hands without saying a word, as if lost in thought.

She covered herself with the blanket and didn’t close her eyes. But when she opened them again, there was a blanket wrapped around her.

There was no one else who could have shown such kindness.

Noticing this, she quickly grabbed the handle of the tightly closed door and turned it, opening the door.

“Ah… Good night, Camilla?”

Raon was standing there, welcoming her with a slightly awkward smile.

He greeted her as she went out the door again today.

Camilla, seeing his awkward smile, eventually shed the tears she had been holding in her heart for a long time, and soon her legs gave out and she collapsed in place.

His awkward smile. His hand waving goodbye.

Because it was a gift more valuable to her than anything in the world.

The small act of being able to look at him again and talk to him was such a blessing to her that she ended up shedding tears in front of him.

Raon, who saw her like that, seemed greatly embarrassed and couldn’t keep his hands still.

“Camilla! What’s wrong?! Where does it hurt?? Camilla!”

Raon looked at her as she suddenly collapsed, worried that she might be sick.

[thud]

Camilla grabbed Raon’s body with her hand, who was looking at her with worried eyes, and pulled him closer to her.

Laon, who couldn’t keep his balance due to her actions, ended up staggering for a moment and falling into her arms.

She hugged Raon tightly without saying a word.

“Ka.. Camilla!!”

He had a hard time understanding the current situation due to her actions, and was greatly surprised by her sudden embrace, and struggled to get away.

“……….”

He noticed that her hands were shaking as she held onto his body, so he stopped struggling and began to look closely at her face.

Raon, looking at her face, which was grimacing and shedding tears, felt deep regret and despair from her, although he couldn’t explain it in words.

Although she had great strength, she looked so weak in front of him.

Since he had never heard or known much about her past, he couldn’t figure out why she was crying so desperately and why her face was full of regret.

[Hug]

Raon, who saw her like that, hugged her trembling body tightly and wrapped her around him.

He didn’t know why, but he just felt it was the right thing to do.

I thought it was right to calm her down, since she seemed so unstable.

That’s why he hugged her trembling body tightly and pressed it against his own.

Surprised by his actions, she opened her eyes wide and looked at him as he hugged her.

She was shedding tears while forcibly embracing him, but when he pressed his body against hers, she was surprised as if she had not expected this.

He hugged her tightly and said.

“Everything will be okay.. Don’t struggle anymore.”

What his mother used to say to him when he was little, while shedding tears.

Raon hugged her and told her that everything would be okay.

After hearing his words, she buried her face in his chest and cried.

“I’m sorry… I’m sorry for lying… I’m sorry for not being honest…”

“I’m sorry for deceiving you for my convenience..”

Burying her face in his chest, she cried and confessed to him things she had never been able to tell him.

She didn’t want to deceive him any longer, even though he had reached out to her and confessed his true feelings.

I didn’t want to feel guilty about seeing him anymore.

Then she finally shed tears and confessed the truth she had been hiding deep in her heart.

In response to her words, Raon simply stroked her hair gently without saying anything.

Raon calmed her down by simply caressing her head silently as she confessed the truth in his arms.

As her crying began to stop little by little, Raon finally opened his mouth.

“Ms. Camilla.”

“………..!”

When Raon carefully called her name, she flinched in surprise.

But she couldn’t raise her face and buried it in his chest.

He saw her like that and smiled slightly as he said.

“Camilla, listen carefully to what I’m going to say from now on, okay?”

Raon spoke to her, who couldn’t raise her face, and she nodded in response to his words while holding him in her arms.

“Actually, I knew to some extent that Camilla was lying to me.”

[Shock!]

Her body squirmed as if she had been stabbed by his words.

Up until now, she had been under the illusion that she was deceiving him for her own gain, but he had seen through her lies, and she trembled in shock at this fact.

“But… That doesn’t mean I resent or hate Camilla. Everyone has their own secrets, and no one likes to talk about them.”

“So… you don’t have to be so heartbroken because you lied to me.”

He spoke while carefully caressing her head, which was buried in his chest without being able to raise her face, and at his words, she soon raised her head and looked at him.

When I looked up, there was a smile on his face.

However, it was not a smile made to mock her appearance, but a smile made to look at her as if it was okay.

His eyes held complex emotions that could not be expressed in words.

“Now… you’re looking at me?”

Raon spoke carefully to her, who was looking at him with reddened eyes.

At his actions, she came to her senses and tried to let go of the hands that were restraining him.

The action of embracing him was done forcefully without considering his feelings. So, when she came to her senses, she hurriedly tried to let him go.

This time, he hugged her even tighter.

As if he noticed her hand trying to let go of him, he held her closer to him the more she tried to move away.

As a result, their faces became close enough that they could feel each other’s breath.

“……….”

“………”

The two people who were looking at each other’s faces did not say anything and just looked at each other’s faces.

5 seconds… 20 seconds passed, but they didn’t leave each other’s side.

While they were looking at each other like that, Raon carefully grabbed her hand.

“It’s okay if you don’t tell me right now. If you don’t want to tell me, it’s okay if you never tell me.”

“Just remember this one thing. No matter what happens, I will never resent you or hate you.”

“And.. I will tell Camilla someday what I have been hiding. But if your story ever hurts you too much, please tell me.”

“Then I will be there to listen to all your stories.”

‘No matter how others judge you, you are the light that brought me out of the darkness and my eternal savior.’

Raon swallowed his last words and stared intently into her trembling eyes.

At his words, a bright smile appeared on her face.

In fact, he knew that she was hiding something from him and lying.

However, even though he knew this, he was not disappointed in her and instead comforted her by telling her that she didn’t have to say anything if she didn’t want to.

His words were his true heart, without any pretense.

When she realized this, she felt a happiness that could not be exchanged for anything in the world.

There was no need to feel guilty or hesitate when looking at him anymore.

And.. there was no need to hide the feelings I had for him.

The fact that she could approach him with a sincere heart was a treasure of the utmost importance to her.

Then she moved her hand again and returned to his arms.

This time I didn’t bury my face.

Because then I wouldn’t be able to smile when I looked at his face.

That’s why this time she didn’t bury her face in his chest, but instead looked at him with a smile.

Raon, who saw her smile like that, also smiled as if relieved to see her return to her usual self.

The two people who had been holding each other so tightly looked at each other’s faces and smiled without saying a word.

I could tell without even saying anything.

How they feel about each other and how they look at each other.

So they just looked at each other’s faces without saying a word.

The two people who were looking at each other thought that it would be nice if time could stop like this.
