Arthur put Alfred on his laps. Teaching him slowly using a picture book. Alfred looked to the book quizzically. He seemed confused. "What's wrong, Alfred?" Arthur asked him softly.

Alfred looked at him with innocent blue eyes. "Umm… Nothing, Arthur…" He mumbled.

"Are you sure?" Arthur asked Alfred again.

The smaller boy nodded with vigor. "Yes, I'm sure Arthur!"

Arthur smiled softly to Alfred. "If you have something to ask, just ask me, okay?" Alfred nodded to him.

When Arthur came back in later years, Alfred is bigger. Arthur let out a smile when he saw Alfred imitated him. Imitated him when he's drinking tea.

After a while, Arthur decided to ask Alfred. "Why did you imitate me?" His voice shown his amusement.

Alfred exclaimed why he imitated him loudly and happily. "Because I want to be as strong as you! So I can protect you!"

Arthur's eyes looked to Alfred in pure shock. Arthur patted Alfred's head. "You don't need to become as strong as me. You only need to become what you are." Arthur told him. Arthur only hoped that Alfred will understand.

"It really looks good on you, Alfred!" Arthur told him. Alfred looks outstanding when he wears that suit Arthur just gave him. Alfred didn't seem to like it though.

"Really? But this is so formal…! I guess I will just wear this during special days."

Alfred looked down to Arthur, completely surprised. He never thought that everything will end to this. That Arthur will be crying. Sobbing there. His heart ached when he saw that. How much he wanted to just go to Arthur to hug and soothe him. Although he knew that he can't do it. "You used to be so big…" He whispered out before leaving Arthur alone in the rain. Completely and devastatingly alone.

Arthur looked to the outside of London, his eyes dull and hollow. It is raining outside. It's something normal. But Arthur couldn't help but shed a few tears. Remembering again what happen that day. When Alfred declared independence. Arthur knew why he left him. It's his greed. His greed to have more money. Making him taxed America more. He wondered why he didn't realize it sooner. Than maybe… Alfred will still be with him. But he knew it's too late. And there's nothing he can done about it.

Arthur looked to the letter, surprised. He read it's content:

… I cannot write well in a letter, it's annoying

-that's why

along with this letter, I will come to meet you!

To my beloved

From your "ex" brother

Arthur's eyes widen in surprise, and Alfred comes, with flowers. Smiling to him. Exclaiming, "I love you, Arthur!" Before he's pulled into a kiss.
