Twisted Love's

Episode 18's

Nolan continued to talk about his father.

"It would be strange if he did all that alone, but it was normal for him to bring his son to study."

"From the outside, it looks like he's a family man ... Willing to go all over the place to give his son the best education."

"Gmph ... Show me how smart he really is." Nolan told me with an annoyed face.

I wasn't sure if I should talk or not, I decided to wait patiently for him to tell me more.

"As soon as I found out the intent behind it, I immediately hated being called a junior and distanced myself from him."

Now that he mentioned it, maybe that's why they spoke so formally to each other at Le Miroir.

I thought there was something strange at the time, but I couldn't stop it ...

"But then time passed and I became a lawyer following in his footsteps."

"Now everyone calls me junior, and that sucks!" Nolan exclaimed furiously.

"But don't you like being a lawyer?" My toot.

"I don't feel one or the other about it. I just do it." Answer Nolan.

"Then... Do you have a reason to be a lawyer?" Ask again.

"Reason?" Nolan sighed, thinking about it.

"If I have to name one, it's so everyone can call me Nolan."

"That's your excuse?" Ask wonder.

It doesn't seem like a good reason to be a lawyer ...

"Boyouthing, right? I know." Nolan.

"You mean you want to surpass your father in the same field, do you?" I confirmed the reason.

"Yes, you're a smart guy. It only means if I can replace him as a lawyer. I myself don't even fully understand the reason..."

"But I want to be Nolan, not him. He could deal with being called Senior Nolan. I'll make it happen soon." Nolan said confidently.

"But you're Nolan for me and everyone at Lilac Court too ..." I said.

"I knew. Only the people in Lilac call me that."

Could that be why Nolan didn't move?

I mean, he's famous and probably rich enough to own his own house or even his own apartment complex ...

I always thought it was strange for him to live with someone else, given that he seemed so haughty.

"Mrs. C has done a good job of bringing in a respectable crowd." Nolan smiled faintly.

When she smiled, I felt like I understood her a little better now.

When we left the Club House, the horse fields looked like they were painted orange in the sunset light.

Is that all for today? I'll sleep well tonight after all that riding ...

I stared at the orange fog as the car drove along the mountain path.

Wait ... Did we come through the mountains on the way to sin**i earlier?!

I thought about it while staring at the sidewalk as the car continued to cross the road.

Nolan finally parked the car on the top of a small mountain.

"Where are we?" My toot.

"Seeing the sights." Nolan unlocked his seatbelt and stepped out of the car to open the door for me.

"Follow me." Nolan walked up.

"OK..." I got out of the car and followed him.

As we walked past a small building, a spectacular view began to be seen.

"Wow!" Excruciate.

"This is my secret place." Nolan.

The dark horizon stretched far and wide, with stars glistening above the dazzling white.

The lights of the city gleamed down below, enveloping the ground with its own stars.

"Beautiful..." I looked at the expanse of Kaleido city in amazement.

"I came here praying for another victory after I won every case of mine." Nolan

So this place means a lot to him ...

Even so, I never knew that Nolan was a superstitious person.

The sun quickly set, cooling down the night breeze that shook my hair.

It is getting cold now ...

Huh huh?

I thought it was strange at first, but I understood the purpose behind his move.

He blocked the wind for me ...

As soon as he cut the wind, my hair that floated back on my shoulders.

Nolan, you ...

"My impression of you has changed a lot today ..." I said.

The faint smile on his face shone in the dim light of the moon.

"I'm sure I've started badly, haven't I?" Nolan.

"Then, maybe you won't hear it?" My toot.

"Continue. What'sthat?" Pinta Nolan's.

"At first I thought you were a cold, scary person ..." I said.

"correct? I told you." Nolan scowled.

"But it's just the past. Today I know that you're a nice guy who has a special smile." I said.

"Well, you're different than I thought." Nolan.

"really? How's it?" Askaqua.

"When you first came, I thought you were a boring person. That, since you have a doctorate, you must be an arrogant researcher."

"But it turns out you're a confident person, and not too boring." Nolan

"I'm not arrogant!" Excruciate.

"seen? It tells you that you're a confident person." Nolan.

"Same for you. You have a special smile." I said.

"I...?" Nolan looked confused.

"You smile when you're with Dietmund. I've never seen you like that before. Hehe ..." I said.

"Shush." His smile and gentle eyes reduced the spicy bite from the words that came out of his mouth.

After we left, it was night. We both decided to go for a light dinner.

When we finished eating, we went through the parking lot side by side.

"Day is fast." I said.

"Are you a child? It's not even late at night yet." Nolan felt strange.

"Didn't you know? Responsible adults always come home early.Hey Nolan... Thank you for today." I spoke slowly to Nolan beside me.

"What's that about?" Ask.

"I'm really having fun today." Our movements stopped as we turned around to face each other on the moonlit path.

"When we tossed the coin, I never thought you'd actually ask me out on a date. We're all drunk, and besides, I don't think you're the type of person to do such a thing." I said.

"Whatchu mean? What kind of people?" Nolan started raising his eyebrows.

"You know, the type that takes betting seriously after we all drink ..." I said doubt.

"Do you think I'd be too upset to ask you out on a date or something?" Ask annoyed.

"Till this morning, I guess. I told you, right? My impression of you has changed a lot today. I just wanted to say thank you. I really feel happy today.Is it so awkward?" I said.

Now it seems she'll assume I had terrible expectations about our date all the time just now ...

"No. I feel the same way. Honestly, my expectations were pretty low. But like I said, I always keep my word. I invited you out today because I considered it an obligation."

Yep. It must have been how she felt when she spoke to me last night ...

"But it turned out differently." Further

"What do you mean?" Ask wonder.

"As you said, surprisingly, I feel happy ..." Nolan.

"Noland..." Just then, the passing car lights illuminated Nolan's face. His narrowed eyes looked at me, so I stared back at him.

A long time passed where we both said nothing.

"Julie. I'm..." He finally broke the silence and stared deep into my eyes.

"... Nolan Junior." But then, a masked man approached us from the side of the road.

Naturally, the two of us turned around and looked towards him.

His appearance, without imagination, could be described as rich.
