Chapter 466 – Isolation

@@

“My, do you know how worried I was…? What the hell happened until almost three days…”

Stella, a little annoyed at her little brother’s unreasonable concern, reassured him with an outwardly benevolent smile.

“Sorry. I was tired so I kept sleeping. It’s fine now.”

“Are you really okay…?”

“Because it is. Jihyeok oppa took good care of rice, right?”

“Yeah… I was eating well…”

“Okay…”

Stella, speechless, pulled the chair close to Alex.
Then she crossed one of his legs, resting his elbow on his thigh, and cupped his chin on the palm of his hand.
In that state, he stared at his brother.

His eyes look affectionate but somehow cold.
After reading it, Alex climbed onto the bed and fell on his knees.

“Oh, why…? What did I do wrong…? Tell me and I’ll fix it right away…!”

Stella raised a corner of his mouth at his sister’s low profile.
I guess I know something now. He now wonders why he is not freeing Aether.

He himself was giving his little brother an attachment.
As a good toy to see the reaction.

Of course, there was family love, but the value as a toy was greater.
In any case, it seemed that the key to freeing Aether was to abandon this family love.

‘Well…’

The present Alex is returning to his former self in America.
Stupid, timid… So he was the look he was pretty.

He sometimes masturbated imagining the body of his real sister, and showed funny reactions.
That’s why it’s a waste to throw it away.
I guess this is stupidity.

Stella, who had been watching Alex silently, asked.

“Your lips are very dry…? Are you thirsty?”

A friendly way of speaking.
Alex’s expression immediately brightened.

“Nope…! It’s okay… I just couldn’t sleep at night worrying about my sister…”

“I’m glad. Are you hungry right now?”

“No it’s okay. I’m not hungry at all.”

“Where is the laundry?”

“I put everything in the collection box.”

She is wagging her tail to get herself a good evaluation. A few days ago, she would have felt a sense of admiration, but not now.
She was just having fun.
Like seeing a well-trained dog, and inferior.

Falling in love with criminals…
Her older sister slows down while bullying her classmate…
Ruining the first important fan meeting…
I’m also aiming for Jihyeok…
Besides this, there are countless other stupid things.

Stella, reflecting on the mistakes Alex had made, suddenly became angry.
Just like what Jihyeok said last time, Alex never came to Korea to help him.
When I think about it, I feel like the remaining affection is rapidly falling.

“Did you reflect a lot? Do you think you are ready to go?”

“If my sister thinks it’s not… I’ll stay here. Shall I read the reflection?”

“No. It’s done today But Alex.”

“Yes.”

“I have a question… Can you answer me?”

“Of course. Ask anything.”

“You used to get beat up a lot in America, but why did you have a tantrum in Korea?”

Stella feigns questions and touches on trauma.
At the naked irony, Alex flinched and took a deep breath.
Stella continued, giggling inwardly as she watched his brother’s reaction.

“Are you relieved that no one in Korea knows the real you? Or is it compensation? Did you want to do what you did to an innocent person?”

“Nu-sister…! That…”

“Answer me honestly.”

“…..”

Alex’s hand on his lap was squeezed.
Seeing him trembling, it seems that he is suppressing his anger.

“Aren’t you going to answer me?”

“…..”

Alex’s eyes widened.
I feel like I’m about to burst into tears from sadness, but I can see that I’m holding back.
Alex’s reaction was the same as he meant that the question he had asked was correct.

He didn’t even care about the victim’s feelings, but when he was in danger of being harmed, he dragged on…
Where does human nature go?
Also, my brother is a jerk.

Thinking she’d heard the answer, Stella went over to Alex and caressed his cheek.

“I have been under a lot of stress lately, so I must have said something I couldn’t. Are you heartbroken?”

“… No… I… I… Did something wrong…”

“I’m sorry, really…”

“It’s okay… You don’t have to be sorry, sister…”

Stella, pretending to be tough and crying, got up from her seat, opened her iron door, and stepped aside.
Then he looked at Alex and said.

“Go out for a while.”

“…. Uh?”

Alex is startled.
Stella smiled brightly and gestured out the door.

“Go out and come.”

“Ji, are you serious…?”

“Yes. I’m serious.”

Greed flashed in Alex’s eyes.
A face that seems to want to run away at any moment.
Stella pushed Alex’s back.

“I’m giving you a prize because you’ve listened to me so far. You can go to a PC room, meet friends, do whatever you want. I’ll give you three days.”

“Four, three days…? Sister…! Is this like a test…? If I really go out, I’m out, and if I don’t…”

“You don’t believe me?”

“It’s not like that… It’s so out of the blue…”

“I’ve been thinking a lot about whether putting pressure on you like this is the right thing to do. I still have that thought… But I want to loosen up a bit.”

Were you impressed by the serious tone?
Alex bit his lip and stared at Stella.
Stella, who pretended to be embarrassed by that gaze and touched the back of her neck, tried to close the door.

“If you don’t like it, would you just stay here?”

“Oh no!!”

Alex screamed and got out of bed.

“Can I come back in three days…?”

“Yes. Until midnight in three days. I left your money and cell phone on the table.”

When he said that he had been preparing in advance, Alex’s expression brightened.
He said with a thrilling smile.

“For three days… Can I do whatever I want?”

“Of course. I won’t mind at all, so do whatever you want.”

At that, Alex took a cautious step.
After confirming that his toe had gone out of the room, he looked at Stella.
And Alex, gulping down Stella’s face as she looked fine, let her body out completely.

He asked after finding a cell phone and a white envelope on the table.

“Can I take that…?”

“Right. Don’t contact me for three days… Play well.”

“That… Jihyeok hyung is…”

When Jihyeok’s name was mentioned from dirty mouth, Stella’s thin eyebrows twitched.

“Why brother?”

“No… I heard you live together… But you’re not here… Are you in the master bedroom…?”

“It’s none of your business. Go now before you change your mind.”

“Ah, okay… Thank you… Thank you, sister…”

Stella responded with a broad smile at Alex.
Then Alex strode over, took the money and cell phone from the table, and left the house as if he were running from a murderer.

‘It was the same…’

Bang! Staring at the closing front door, Stella recalled what Alex had shown before leaving.
The gaze was directed at his thighs wearing a skirt that was tight to his pelvis…
The lower leg was slightly swollen because of it…

Alex also felt sexual desire while looking at his body.
You barked at me for worrying so much, but when I met you, you acted like that…
Isn’t instinct the same?

“Ha…”

Thinking that Alex was genuinely pathetic, Stella let out a deep sigh.

Rattle.

At the same time, when the bathroom door opened and Jihyeok came out, a bright smile appeared on his face.

“Brother…!”

Stella runs quickly and falls into Ji-hyeok’s arms.
She rubbed her face against Ji-hyeok’s chest, feeling the warmth that was stronger than before.

“I’ll respect it as much as it’s your choice… But aren’t you treating me too unconventionally?”

She raised her head at the sound of Jihyeok’s benevolent voice.

“I told you I believed… Wait for me.”

“Of course.”

“I have a schedule for today…?”

“I have. Change your clothes and get ready.”

“Yes.”

Stella, who answered like a good child, went into the dressing room and took off her clothes.
Afterwards, as she put on an innocent dress, she predicted where Alex would go.

After being freed for three days, the place Alex will go is probably in the dark.
A vulgar place where things like that happen between men and women.
There must have been a lot of accumulation up until now, and since he has enough money, he must be trying to relieve his sexual desire.

I’ll take care of it until there, but from then on is the key.
If Alex chooses to do something he doesn’t like… He’s out.
She will completely isolate herself from her sister and find freedom.

It’s a pity that the toys she can play with are gone, but she herself has many more important things to do.
And he seemed to be implicitly hoping that Alex would have an accident.
Otherwise, my heart wouldn’t be beating so fast.

After changing all of her clothes, Stella accepted the phone that Jihyeok was handing over.

-Heo-eok…! Huh…!

Thanks to the micro-reconnaissance aircraft that Ji-hyeok brought from the headquarters, Alex’s back came out of the officetel and ran down the street.
Would it be so good to find freedom?
I feel proud that my brother seems to be having fun.

‘Cheer up.’

Stella, who internally encouraged Alex to run away regardless of people’s gazes, put her phone in her bag.
