PART THREE
Purple felt that she was the luckiest woman. She didn't expect that she was the one going to steal Neptune's first time. It was almost one decade Neptune's relationship to a passed away Noire. That's why she thought that she wasn't a virgin anymore. But she never loved her less even though she didn't stole the first. But then again, she was happy that Neptune put her faith in her. She tightly hugged the poor girl while their heads was on the headboard of the bed. She was still panting.
"Does it still hurt?" Purple lifted the blanket that was covering them both.
"Purple!" Neptune swat her hand away. Her face was entirely red. Purple laughingly hug her.
"My love, so shy." She had a glimpse of the pink bed sheet. It was blood-stained, the exact proof of how blessed she was. Now, she was starting to like what the girl also likes.
"I'm sorry if I was a bit rough. I never knew that it was your first." There she said it. She wanted to be honest so that she says her assumption.
"We never crossed our boundaries." She pointed out to Noire. "We both wanted to have our first wedding night."
"I'm sorry, you're not gonna be the virgin bride." She barely felt the conscience of how she felt because they already did 'those' before they wed.
"It's okay. It's odd but I felt ready. I wanted to give you all that I can. You're the one who's going to be the father of our children."
Purple just hugged her more tightly and just push her face in Neptune's chest. She was truly touched at what Neptune's said.
"I love you, my love."
"Redundant."
She laughed and repeated it. "I love you."
"I love you, too."
From those words, she was able to fully grasp the description of heaven. Her only silent prayer was for them to stay that way forever.
[Somewhere...]
At the night, just before the Homer Textiles to close...
"Oh let me plea my brother,
Something akin to nature,
In this place, standing my pressure,
What more could I hide? No more..."
"Is it ready?" A deep but manly yet hold a superiority said to no one. A man wearing a tuxedo and a black trimmed hair was standing just outside the building of Homer Textiles. In front of the man was Nepgear, Purple Heart's younger sister.
The girl was noticeable shaking but only on closer looks. Her eyes was almost wide and a tear was forming at the corner of her eyes.
The young man just stared down at her, having it's tall was more than the poor height of Nepgear.
"You know the consequence, Nepgear. Purple and Neptune was now in one bond. And I know for sure, once you tell the truth. You're the one going to broke it." The man said, then he leaned forward a bit for Nepgear only to hear. "I assure you; The more you didn't let it go, the more you'll suffer."
The young man stand straight, turning to leave.
Nepgear could only sniff.
"I'm sorry..."
PART FOUR
Purple just woke up from the bed when someone knock to her room.
"Come in, it's open." She said while she stretched herself.
"Onii-chan..."
"Why you look so sad?" She walk close to the girl and put a hand on her shoulder.
Because of what she did, Nepgear suddenly cry. "Onii-chan, please forgive me."
"Wait a second, I don't understand. What's the problem?" She started to get nervous.
"I'll ruin your life, Onii-chan. I'll ruin your life."
"Calm down, okay." She helped her sat on the bed.
"I don't want to destroy your happiness. Maybe Neptune will lost to you because of me. I won't forgive myself. I should've said it before, maybe I shouldn't take it long. But every time, I lost motivation to say it to you what you need to know."
That way Purple's eyebrows furrowed. "Did you do something that could destroy me and Neptune's relationship?"
"Onii-chan, I was the one who killed her ex. girlfriend. I'm the criminal, the one she's been looking for." Nepgear didn't hesitate saying that.
It was like a bomb that explode in front of Purple when Nepgear released those from her mouth. Shock was an understatement.
"It was Noire the one whom you run over?"
Nepgear nodded.
Of course, she knew that her sister hit someone two years ago. She was in Ultradimension that time. Nepgear was just nineteen years old. She had a bright life ahead. She run over a woman that appeared in front of her car. That was definitely not a case of hit and run.
Until in the hospital where the victim was there's Nepgear. She didn't run from responsibility and she was ready to be brought in the prison. But then, they talk to the stepmom of the victim. The stepmom just wanted the generous amount they could give for the settlement. Her sister became free from punishment by law but she never got free from guilt. She always feels depression. She accused herself.
"I collected these." She let Purple see her files that she was bringing.
There's the information in Noire's life. There's also the picture where Neptune was there as well.
"Why do you need to collect this?" She didn't have any idea why her younger sister was doing this.
Nepgear's eyes was slowly covered in tears once again. "For me to remind that I destroyed someone's life. I always tracked Neptune ever since then. She didn't know that there was a settlement that happened. What she knows, hit and run was the thing happened and also cased close since there was no witness."
"Why they didn't say that to her?" She emphatically always close her eyes. It was the clear that the stepmom, of Noire, manipulated Noire and all of them.
"Noire's stepmom said to me, Neptune will not accept to put me in prison. She could even kill me, she said. I got scared. That's why I let her believe that it was just an undetermined for criminal in the case."
"Now, I understand your reaction when you first meet Neptune." Purple slowly stroked the back of her young sister while the said sister was crying.
She lacked information. She didn't know the full detail of that accident. She was a fool because she did not even know the name of the victim. The only thing she helped Nepgear was financial. She give her a large sum of credits in her own wallet because that time their company was completely narrow.
During that time, she was busy saving the company and redeeming the credits the company had lost. She was completely took over the company. She succeeded in launching their business abroad and encouraged foreign investors.
Purple fixed everything. She quickly move everything to the company except the emotional trauma that Nepgear experienced.
She should have know. She wished she didn't have to be that so busy in the business. She should've placed a time for everyone to know. When she returned she already saw her young sister recovered, she didn't ask for the whole happening. And now, she just found out that their life is intertwined with Neptune's life.
"I don't know what to do. Maybe she'll broke up with you if she knows the truth. I've made a big sin. When Noire died, it felt like I myself was also part of where she is now supposed to; Graveyard. I saw her pain. lost the feelings to really felt the feelings of her stepmom even she was the only one left significant to Noire. She was overwhelmed with credits. But Neptune, I know she's not gonna move on."
Purple wiped the tears away from Nepgear's cheeks. She was lost for words. "It's a small world."
"Onii-chan, are you angry to me?"
"No. It was an accident."
"I should've go to the prison. Maybe it will make turn things much better now."
"Don't say that. If I was here in that event two years ago, I would still do the same. I'm not gonna let you intern. I will give all my credits just to save you. It was not an act of tolerating you because you never did that intentionally. It was just one accident. You deserved to be freed."
Nepgear hugged Purple. "Thanks, Onii-chan. So, what are you planning to do?"
"I'm gonna tell the truth to Neptune. Just give me some time. Everything will be alright, don't worry."
"Thank you for listening, Onii-chan. I felt a bit better. Thanks that you're angry at me."
Nepgear was still sad after she left Purple in her own room.
After she left, Purple eyes darted to the left files. One deep exhale that she released.
[Somewhere...]
"..."
The same man who met Nepgear in their company was standing in front of the house of Neptune. He was staring deeply in the house.
"...I see." He muttered, still staring at the door of the house. A gust of wind passed through him, his hands was on his pockets from his pants. His face was like a stone: Unmovable, stoic and hard. It was something that only emotionless people felt. It's red eyes was a bit dull.
"Let's see... if this story will have the bad ending as I expected it should be."
