Severo Laris’ silence left Pa Rouco with an incredible sense of uneasiness.


    The girl’s sad tears, sliding down the back of Severo Laris’ neck, were hot, so hot that they burned Severo Laris’ heart.


    He had never known that a girl’s tears could so strain his emotions.


    “Lita,” he couldn’t resist calling her Severo Laris.


    Pa Rouco buried her tearful little face in the crook of his neck and murmured in a squashed voice, “Don’t call me that, you don’t like me.”


    “…”


    “Why is it so hard for me to be your girlfriend, Severo, what the hell do I have to do to be your girlfriend?”


    Pa Rouco never imagined she could be so humble.


    So humble that, even knowing that Severo Laris doesn’t like her now, she would be happy if he agreed to fall in love with her and be her boyfriend.


    Severo Laris stopped in his stride and looked sideways at her, his chin brushing against her soft hair, his heart softened beyond words.


    “I thought it would have been a long time ago.”


    Pa Rouco paused for several seconds and lifted her small face to look at him nkly, “What did you just say?”


    Severo Laris, word for word, said, “I thought you were my girlfriend a long time ago.”


    …!!!


    What was he talking about, was he having trouble with his ears?


    The girl’srge, misty eyes were full of shock and confusion as she stared at him.


    Severus Laris saw that the little person at his back was silent and nced sideways at her, meeting her expressionless gaze, her voice as calm as ever, but with an added touch of tenderness.


    “Didn’t you say you liked me?”


    “I like you, but…”


    Before the words were out of her mouth, Severo Laris had already taken control of the conversation, “And what’s the other problem?”


    Pa Rouco: …


    And that’s it?


    Severo Laris was carrying her on his back as he continued to look for the path.


    Pa Rouco was in no mood to look at the road, her mind so preupied with the question she had just asked that her dulled brain was slow to recover her thoughts.


    “Severo Laris, did you just say you’re okay with me being your girlfriend?”


    The girl looked up at him with wide eyes, full of joy and leaps of happiness.


    “Hmm.” He was still as cold as ever.


    But Pa Rouco, no longer caring about these small details, asked him repeatedly several times, “Really?”


    After asking, she also approached Severo Laris’ ear.Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org.


    “Severo Laris, are you in pain?”


    Severo Laris: …


    Pa Rouco looked at her ear, which was pinched by her, and said with a little pout, “It’s all red, it must hurt.”


    Severo Laris: …


    She’s as dumb as a fool when she asks herself these questions.


    Pa Rouco reached up and pinched her thigh hard and moaned in pain, pain pain pain pain.


    Severo Laris couldn’t look away and threw out, “It’s nighttime, no need to worry about daydreaming.”


    Pa Rouco: …


    The little girl’s little face, then, was filled with a big smile.


    “Severo Laris, do you like me?”


    As much as she liked him, he liked her.


    Instead of answering her question, Severo Laris asked quietly, “After all the questions you’ve asked me tonight, isn’t it time you answered me?”


    “Answer what?”


    “Since you’re going to be my girlfriend, what’s going on between you and Gaspar?”


    “I’m not Gaspar’s boyfriend and girlfriend!” She hastily exined.


    Severo Laris: “Was it during the development of a boyfriend-girlfriend rtionship?”


    “…”


    Pa Rouco immediately flinched, her little face leaned against the side of his neck as she carefully exined, “I admit it, I had intentions of trying it with him, but it was also because of you, you always ignored me and you were always with Engracia, I thought you were really going to America with Engracia to further your studies and I was afraid I was getting more and more into it, so I tried to use Gaspar to distract myself.”


    “So, did you seed?”


    “No.” Pa Rouco ttened her little mouth and added, “Not only is it not a distraction, but I seem to like you even more. stern Laris, did you give me a p on the wrist?”


    “I can’t cast spells.”


    “… oh.” Nice and goosey.


    Severo Laris: “In the future, no more interaction with Gaspar. ”


    “But Gaspar is a ssmate of mine and a member of our ss PEmittee, so there’s no way we won’t be hanging out together.”


    The man’s frown was cold, a cold glint under his eyes, and even his voice dropped three degrees, “I mean, no more seeing each other alone except in ss.”


    Pa Rouco tilted her little chin upward and said good-naturedly, “I have aplex about that!”


    Where she couldn’t see, Severo Laris’ thin lips, slightly hooked.


    It’s good to have this self-awareness and to behave well.


    The girl looked at him, biting her small mouth, and couldn’t help but ask, “But … can you be so self-conscious about this?”.


    “Like what?”


    The girl said domineeringly, “Don’t meet and eat alone with Engracia. You’re my boyfriend now! You can only meet and eat with me alone! No one else can!”


    The voice was brittle, yet possessive of him.


    The smile on Severo Laris’ thin lips deepened, mocking, “Then I can’t promise you anything.”


    “Why?”


    “Because I definitely have to meet and eat with Rufio and Lastra from time to time.”


    “You can, they’re not little girls.” Pa Rouco breathed a sigh of relief.


    Severo Laris made an “hmm.”


    Pa Rouco leaned over his back, remembering something, her watery eyes sizing him up yfully, “Are you jealous that I have dinner with Gaspar?”


    It was to be expected that Severo Laris would have denied it, or simply ignored her.


    But to her surprise, the man bowed his head slightly and his voice was grave and serious as he returned, “Well, she’s sour.”


    The girl’s back turned, her little mouth hanging open in a radiant, warm smile.


    “Severo Laris, I love that you’re jealous of me.”


    “Not in the future, you’re mine.” Dered Clear Cooling’s unmistakably dominant phrase.


    Pa Rouco’s little ears suddenly blushed as she listened, and her little hands, sped around his neck, tightened their grip.


    It’s good that it’s hers.


    Pa Rouco is in a good mood, lying on Severo Laris’ back and lifting her little face to look at the stars.


    “Severo, the stars are so bright here.”


    “…”


    He was finding his way with her on his back, and the little thing was enjoying it.


    “Severo Laris, can we go on a date tomorrow night? You stood me upst time.”


    “Hmm.” Indulgence.


    Pa Rouco sighed contentedly and said, “Severo, I’m d to have you.”


    She had never known that feelings could be so strong when she liked someone.


    When you don’t get it, it’s hard and sour, but when you do, it’s happy and satisfying.


    Satisfying to the point that it was as if giving up everything and having him was enough.


    “Severo Laris, I love you so much, you can’t live up to the heart I have for you.”


    In the moonlight, Severo Laris had a serious gleam in his eyes.


    He would not disappoint you.


    How to disappoint.


    How much she likes him and how much he likes her are the same.


    She couldn’t feel it, he was holding back his emotions towards her, going crazy.


    The desire to kiss her hard, to make her his, so intense he was about to explode, an emotion he had never felt for anyone.


    Only her.


    “But, if you stay with me and don’t go to America with Engracia, won’t you lose this opportunity to further your education? Wouldn’t you regret it?”


    Severo Laris’ thin lips exhaled two words, clean and sharp: “No.”
