For Your Failed Unrequited Love

Chapter 96

what?

Felixs hand, which was holding Adrians shoulder, fell down. He only looked at him with a frown, as he did when he heard the news of a war overnight.

Felix, who couldnt figure out what to say back, asked a dazed question a long time later.

What do you mean

literally.

Adrian explained, looking at his brother with dismal eyes.

Since I was very young, I knew father didnt like me. The way he looks at me. his eyes that want me to disappear from this world. They look like theyre saying I shouldnt have been born. Even though I was young, I could feel it all.

Felix listened to Adrian and recalled his childhood memories.

Adrian was right. However, it was the same for Felix.

He also used to freeze like ice when he stood in front of their father, who was strict and never smiled at all. In front of his cold father who never says warm words, he also felt terrible fear and tension.

it was the same for me, Adrian. Thats the way he is. Hes a terrible person whos even hard on his wife.

At Felixs words, Adrians blue eyes sank cold like a frozen winter lake. He opened his tight mouth and spouted out softly.

When we were six years old, he strangled me.

what?

His brothers words were once again shocking, forcing Felix to ask back with a blank face.

He wasnt drunk or out of his mind. He was in a sober state of mind, he just strangled me without any guilt. As if thats what he has to do at that moment.

His distant voice seemed to penetrate Felixs head once, then fly away and scatter.

He didnt know what to say back. Confused, Felix just listened to his brothers story with a stunned face.

At that time, mother ran to stop father. She begged desperately. To save me. To not kill me.

Adrian paused for a moment with a dark face as if he were recalling that time.

Two identical blue eyes stared at each other. However, the difference was, one side was in shock, and the other side was sinking like death.

but father didnt stop. No matter how many times mother shouted that I was his child, he didnt stop. Then mother changed her ways and began to persuade him in other words. Our faces are becoming indistinguishable, so he can use me somewhere. At that, he stopped strangling me. Thats all she could say to save me. Im his son, but I dont mean anything to him.

Adrian let out a self-help laugh.

Thats how I was able to survive. Like mother said, father didnt try to kill me afterwards because he thought he could use me for something. He started using me as your replacement.

When Adrian stopped talking, a terrible silence filled the room.

Why in the world

Why does father want to kill Adrian?

It never happened to me. Not even once.

Adrian and him were twins born on the same day. He couldnt think of a reason why he would kill only him.

Why on earth would father.

Adrian laughed bitterly at Felixs vain murmur.

I dont know, Felix.

A desperate voice came out of his mouth.

Like you, I also dont know. Why did father try to kill me?

It wasnt until he heard this tremendous fact that Felix realized. Why their mother tried to protect Adrian as obsessive as she has been.

Why Adrian always came first to his mother.

I think thats when mother started over protecting me. Mother was always afraid that my father would try to kill me again when she didnt know.

Adrian, who struggled to finish his words recalling the terrible memories of the past, collapsed on the bed.

So dont tell me that mother loves me more. Because its not true.

How can I respond to that?

Felix couldnt say anything in front of his brother who confessed his trauma.

* * *

Felix quietly left the room. Now, he walked slowly in the dark along the campus, which smelled like winter.

Adrians voice was calm and quiet, but his words caused a stir in Felixs mind.

Why did my father want to kill Adrian?

He already knew that he was crazy when it came to his familys business, but he couldnt understand that he tried to hurt his child.

Shortly after he walked, he found a person standing in front of a nearby flower bed and stopped walking. His mother, who stumbled out of the room, remained in the academy with the help of a maid.

With a pale complexion, her eyes widened when she found Felix.Pages:Page 1, Page 2
