章 343: What a brother and uncle should do

"He would at times wait for her to finish classes so he could follow her around pestering her all the way home. At that time I and father weren't there so we didn't know about it."

"She tried to be strong and defend herself but at some point, she broke down. She didn't even tell me or my father about it when we returned. Because the boy was the grandson of an elderly adviser he came to our home one day."

"It was then she realised the boy who had made her life difficult had breached her only haven. Scared she hid inside her closet and refused to answer my call when father asked me to find her so she could greet the guests."

"When I found her she was curled up like a dumpling crying. That's when I realised something was wrong. Do you know what I told her then?... I told her it's okay to show some weakness to the people you trust. She shouldn't have to always shoulder the burden by herself because I was there for her."
