Chapter 1589 A Sister

Chapter 1589 A Sister

"I raised my children well and I taught them not to depend on any help, especially anything that comes from you.

I was stupid back then. I worked my ass off just to disprove some assholes who said I got here because of you or my mother.

You always visited me when you had the time but I was the one who kept our meetings short."

Varian covered his face and gritted his teeth, trying to hold back his tears.

"Maybe you noticed and respected my decision or maybe you didn't delve deep into it.

But I was avoiding you a bit and even my mother too.

I wanted to...prove myself first.

I thought...we'd have all the time in our world.

I was wrong.

You disappeared without warning and my mother busier than ever.

And then, the children grew up. And they had children.

The world was changing, new tides were rising. I tried to become the best in my field and I drowned in my career.

I don't even know how time passed...but when I came to my senses, Maya was dying."

"No!" Varian was screaming at everyone and no one. There was no rage in his voice, only grief. "Why is she dying? Why does she have to die? I can save her...they can save her...no...she doesn't have to die..." Kyle showed a helpless smile. The smile with which a young girl named Maya fell in love long, long ago.

"She didn't want to live any longer. She said she had it all and just wants to go. I don't understand her really, but...I don't want her to be alone. So, I left with her." Kyle said with a loving smile as he thought of his wife.

A moment of silence passed.

Varian watched as tears glistened in Kyle's eyes and rolled down his cheeks. The digital tears split into millinons of little light particles and dissipated.

Rubbing his cheeks, Kyle asked him with a smile.

"Remember the first time you met?"

Varian nodded without thinking. It was after a duel with three.

"You beat three guys and won an impossible match. But your eyes were dead. She was a bit scared you know, but that's the thing about her, she can act despite the fear.

She gave you a well wisher note, one sisters give to their brothers twice every year in her city.

And then, tada! She became your sister from that day."

[Brother, I want my son to be as brave as you.]

[Brother, I hope you are safe.]

[Brother, I am very happy whenever I think of the time we spent in academy. Is it because times were so simple?]

[Brother, I want to see you at least once I before I die.]

[Brother, are you eating well?]

How many?

How many did she write?

For how many years did she keep writing them?

And why did she even write all this...for the man who might never return?

Wiping away his tears, Varian carefully placed them all back into the box and found the last note.

[Brother, this is my last note to you.

I'm sorry because I don't know what situation this note will find you.

But please remember this.

Even if you don't believe in yourself, there is a sister who always will.

You did the impossible. Whatever comes your way, you will win!

There is no doubt about this.

And brother, sorry, Kyle asked me for one last help.]

"Kyle!"

When Varian raised his tear-stricken face, he saw Kyle dissipating while waving his hand at him with a smile.

"There were 50 billion souls in the federation, but I'm glad it was you!"

When Varian caught him, the hologram had already dissipated. Collapsing powerlessly, Varian read the ending of the note.

[When I gave you the first note, you promised that I'll be your sister from that day, no matter.

Then, Now and Forever.

So, somewhere in a corner of your heart, promise to remember me as your sweet little sister, okay?

Then, even in your world of storms, I will be a little flower in the darkness, giving you one more reason to smile.]
