As soon as Pa Rouco arrived home, Lucio Rouco rushed over to ask how things were going.


    “Sister, how did your date with Brother Angelo go?”


    Pa Rouco bit her lip and said, “Angelo confessed his love to me.”


    “And did you ept it?”


    “No. I’ve always been a hairdresser with him, and I never thought he would like it.”


    Lucio Rouco approached me, unimpressed, “I’ve seen for a long time that Angelo likes you, if he didn’t like you, why does he hang out with you all the time? If he doesn’t like you, why does he hang out with you all the time? I think you’re ying dumb and don’t want to tell him off, don’t you?”


    Pa Rouco is distracted because her best friend since childhood has suddenly confessed his love to her and she’s not sure how to deal with him in the future, and because she got into a fight with Angelo tonight and is now very irritable.


    “But he’s been harassing me since I was a kid, so it’s not like he likes me in any way.”


    “Harassing you on purpose to get your attention, don’t you understand?”


    Pa Rouco swallowed saliva and said, “I have rejected him anyway, what has been said has been made clear, and he and I, in the future, will remain friends.”


    “Sister, I really don’t understand, what about Brother Angelo, do you have someone you like?”Property of N?)(velDr(a)ma.Org.


    Her eyes dodged as Lucio Rouco spoke to her and she got up and pushed him out of her bedroom, “I’m sleepy, get out of here, I’m going to take a shower.”


    “Pa, is it true that you have been in love with a man behind mom’s, dad’s and my back?”


    Pa Rouco: “Mind your own business, my lord!”


    “You’re only five years older than me, so you have the nerve to call yourself an adult.”


    “I am of age, Lucio Rouco, are you of age?”


    He pushed Lucio Rouco out the door and mmed it shut.


    On the other side of the door, Lucio Rouco growled, “Women are not right.”


    …


    When Pa Rouco returned to Imperial after the National Holiday vacation, the first thing she did was go to Severo Laris.


    When Severo Laris arrived at the college, Pa Rouco was sitting in front of the dormitory building, frowning at a huge delivery.


    Severo Laris frowned slightly and asked, “What did you buy?”


    “This is the electronic piano I use, after studying in college, the piano was neglected, I came home to y steel and my hands were so raw that I had my mother express this electronic piano.”


    Severo Laris asked, “Does your hostel allow you to practice?”


    Pa Rouco: “Definitely not possible, practicing the piano would definitely make noise to the host aunt.”


    “I’ll have someonee to transport your violin to my ce first.”


    Pa Rouco smiled at Severo Laris’ment, “That’s what I thought. I was afraid you wouldn’t like it.”


    Severo Laris called a car and together with Pa Rouco they transported the instrument to the house Severo Laris had rented.


    Severo Laris lives with Lastra in a two-bedroom house. The good thing is that the two boys don’t have a lot of stuff, so the living room is pretty empty and has more than enough space for an electric piano.


    “From now on, if you want to practice,e here and then I’ll give you the key to the ce.”


    Pa Rouco sat down in front of the electric piano, gave a few strokes, and asked, “And would Lastra approve? Will I bother Lastra by practicing here?”


    Severo Laris hooked his thin lips and poured her a ss of water, “I pay all the rent for this house, he has no right to disagree. Now he doesn’t sleep on the street just because I took him in.”


    Pa Roucoughed, “Then I’lle back more often and you won’t dare have a problem with him.”


    Severo Laris looked at her yfully and sat down next to her, pressing some piano keys with his hands, “What do you do here so often?”


    “…” knowingly, “I, of course I’m here to practice the piano. I’ve been studying piano for many years, I can’t afford to leave it halfway.”


    Severo Laris gazed at her with a deep look, “You’re just here to practice?”


    “…” His gaze was so hot that her look made his face burn red.


    She hastily averted her eyes and looked down to touch the piano, but her chin was gently caught by the man, who turned her small face and their lips intertwined.


    Click.


    The door opened.


    Lastra, standing in the doorway, glimpsed the intimacy and hurriedly covered her eyes.


    “Ouch, what’s wrong with you two?”


    Pa Rouco hurriedly pushed Severo Laris away, her little face hot with embarrassment that she had just kissed and been seen.


    Compared to her embarrassment, Severo Laris was more rxed, not at all embarrassed or troubled by the collision.


    Only to get up and tell Lastra, who was standing in the doorway, “In the future, knock before you open the door.”


    Lastra immediately exploded, “Why? I have to knock before I open the door, people who don’t know that think I have a brain.”


    “By virtue of the fact that I pay the rent for this house.”


    Lastra: “…”


    Shit, the truth is I can’t refute that.


    Lastra entered the house and couldn’t help but scoff, “Knock first when you open the door, Severo, you’re reminding me that you and Paulita are going to have something in this house anytime, anywhere aren’t you?”.


    Pa Rouco felt so flirted with that she wanted to reach out and cover her face.


    However, Severo Laris replied, “Get a girlfriend and see what happens.”


    Lastra spits blood: “…”


    Tie the heart.


    Pa Rouco asked curiously, “Lastra, you’re always inviting your little sister to dinner and movies, why don’t you have a girlfriend yet?”


    “…”


    Another one for the ages. The two are truly a couple, stomping their hearts out with such precision.


    …


    Lately, Pa Rouco runs to Severo’s house to practice for an hour or two after her sses at school.


    Sometimes Severo Laris is at thew firm and she is the only one home, so she practices a lot.


    If Severo Laris were home, the practice time would be cut in half and the remaining half would be spent hugging and kissing in Severo Laris’ arms, and who started it first is an unknown.


    If this keeps up, sooner orter the gun will be erased.


    Pa Rouco is aplete novice in this field, scared and unfamiliar.


    When Susana was asked about this, Susana’s eyes widened and she eximed, “No way, you haven’t hit a home run after all this time with Severo?”


    Pa Rouco hastily covered her mouth and lowered her voice to say, “You want to lower your voice!”


    The way to school is crowded!


    Susana withdrew her hand and exhaled, looking at her suspiciously, “Are you the one who doesn’t want to, or is Severo at peace with himself?”


    “He … doesn’t seem to have meant it – but I don’t think it’s the time either!”


    If he were to take thest step with Severo Laris, nothing would happen if he hid well, but if the family found out … Dad would rip his head off!


    “No way, Severo is so ascetic?”


    Pa Rouco: … People have good restraint.


    What can you expect from someone who can get up every morning at 6 o’clock to study and work for years and years, in what way can you expect him to indulge?


    Susana threw her arms around his neck and said flirtatiously, “I’ve read that the more abstinent a man looks, the hotter he is. Paulita, do you want to try it with Severo, to find out?”.


    Spitting blood.


    “To prove this conjecture of yours, are you going to send me to the guillotine? Susanna, your stic best friend!”


    “I’m looking out for your welfare! You’re a waste of Severo’s good looks if you don’t sleep with him!”


    Pa Rouco: “Is Rufio any good?”


    “?… Paaaa! And you talk about me! You horny little thing!”


    The two tugged on each other’s backpack straps and jostled each other on the school boulevard.
