His gaze shifted down to Aarav's chest, "Is your heart failing?"
Aarav's pale fingers brushed over his lips as he smiled, "Yes, I don't have much time left. Might as well help you out."
"I remember when she was still alive, she loved us very much, especially Selena..."
"I'll go explain it to her on your behalf. She'll believe and forgive you."
The man's smile deepened on his face, "So confident. Can you kill me?"
Aarav's eyes flickered slightly and a white whip appeared in his hand as he spoke in a flat tone, "We have to try."
The man stared at Aarav with cold expression for a few seconds before suddenly laughing lightly,"Then let's give it a try."
...
Selena was brought into the car by Osvaldo.
Her face turned pale and her whole body trembled.
With Osvaldo's words came countless fragmented memories that shattered completely in her mind.
Each one of them was another young and beautiful face.
She finally remembered everything.
She had a twin brother named Aarav.
Before the age of five, they had always lived together.
Every night, their father and mother would sit by their bedsides, gently coaxing them to sleep.
She slept inside while her brother slept outside.
After their parents left, her brother would tenderly kiss her forehead and say goodnight in a soft voice.
They played together and laughed together.
She always cried, but every time she did, her brother would immediately soothe her with tenderness.
When she did something wrong, he always took the blame for her without hesitation.
He was like a little adult who spoke politely to his mother saying "Mother, it was Aarav who did it not my sister."
Her brother had to learn various manners every day as well as many heavy academic tasks.
But she could play freely without any restrictions.
Many nights when she crawled out of bed at midnight , she saw him sitting on the couch reading a book.
At that moment Little Selena rubbed her eyes and asked in a childish voice why he wasn't sleeping yet?
Five-year-old Little Pink didn't understand what was happening, but she could sense that something was wrong. Perhaps it was her childlike intuition, but during that time she clung to him more than usual. If he left for even a moment, she would cry and search for him.
After a few days, one night her brother went out and only returned in the middle of the night. Standing in the darkness with his small body and head down, he was ice-cold all over. With eyes that a five-year-old couldn't comprehend, he quietly looked at her.
This was the first time little Pink saw her gentle brother cry like an angel from heaven.
Little Pink was frightened and quickly crawled over to help wipe away his tears. "Brother..."
