Theo poured his heart out to Aurora as they started their cardio exercise in the backyard.
The siblings went through so much together that they did not keep any secrets from each other.
The other was the first person they would talk to if they were going through sothing.
Just like how Theo was telling his thoughts to his sister at that mont.
"I have always loved to cook, but because of our financial situation, I could not dedicate myself to it. That changed with the money on the table. I could fully pursue my dream. And it turned out that I'm a talented cook! I fell in love even harder with the cooking art." Theo went on with a small smile on his face.
Aurora just stayed silent and gave her brother space to let out his inner demons.
"That's why the first business I opened after the Bluecloud Coffee Shop was the restaurant. I wanted to bring my joy and passion for cuisine to other people. I planned everything in the restaurant, and when it was finally ready I felt that it was my baby. I felt so happy when the restaurant opened for the first ti. I felt genuinely happy to work night after night in the kitchen of the restaurant."
"It felt like a therapeutic ti for . A place where I could turn off my thoughts and just focus on the next order. I don't think I can ever stop working in that kitchen. I love it too much." Theo chuckled.
"Plus, I t so many wonderful people through the restaurant! People that we consider close friends now."
"After being successful with the restaurant, I thought to myself, 'Why can't I realize my other dreams?'. You know that since we were little how much I love mangas and anis. And I had always dread of producing my own mangas and anis. That's where it ca from my crazy idea to open a publishing house and an animation studio."
"I poured my heart and sweat into these two projects. I used the majority of the money I earned from Bluecloud to invest in these two companies."
"I risked the unknown to invest so much money in them. But it turned out that the people liked my stories. The manga sales skyrocket and with the money from these sales, I opened an animation studio. Every step of my way until here was hard-earned. And it felt so good to use my own success to fuel my dreams."
"I feel so excited and accomplished to see people liking my products. I never cared about the money I received from these projects as most of this money I used to invest again in these projects. I think the most expensive thing I spent was this house for us."
"But this house is for our family, so I did not hold any expenses when building this house. I only asked for the best. I guess you don't even know how much this house is worth. But it can be considered one of the most expensive houses in the country. For its location and Sylph control system."
"But this house was not built because I wanted to be ostentatious. I have always dread of giving our family a palace where we could live for the rest of our lives. A place we could always co back to no matter what. This is our ho. Our only ho. I wanted to give you the palace you deserve to live in."
"And I guess I was successful because I love this house and living in it with you and Maya." Theo laughed heartily as they started running at a low pace.
Aurora was trying hard to fight the tears that were forming in her eyes.
She loved it so much that Theo had their family in his mind when he made this house.
"It's because of this house that I opened my animation studio here in Elffire City. While all other studios are located in Sakura City. I didn't want my studio to be far from my dream house. Even though so people might think it's a crazy idea to open an animation studio in a city without any history with the animation industry. I call it bullshit because I can make my own history!"
"If there is no history, I will write down my own history!" Theo said with a voice full of determination.
Aurora looked sideways and saw his eyes shimring with determination, she admired him even more at that mont. He did not shy away from the challenge even if everyone else said it would not work.
"Even though I didn't manage to launch my first ani yet, I already love it so much working in the studio. The feeling of working to produce an animation is so amazing! I feel excitent and eagerness to produce even more anis. I don't care if they are successful or not. I only want to see my favorite stories on screen!" Theo said with eager eyes as he could not wait to see Naruto on screen again.
Aurora could relate to his feeling because she herself felt eager to see his stories on screen.
"That's also why I produced my music album. I never pursued fa by producing it. I only wanted to see these songs changing other people's lives. These songs are very special to , so I just wanted to share them with the world."
"On so level, I always expected the hype around my songs as they are amazing. But I did not expect so much hype and fa. It's overwhelming, but I can deal with it as only a few people know that I'm Moonlight. And they do not treat differently because of my increasing fa. This fa feels like it's happening to another person and not , so I can be cool about it."
"But this morning, I realized that I overlooked sothing. With all this hype, the money that Moonlight will earn will be astronomical!"
"Even if I heavily invest so of this money in my other projects, I will only expend a portion of the money. I feel lost because I don't know what to do with this much money."
"I don't want my passion for music and art to be driven by money. I want to be free from these material things and pursue my happiness. But the money I'll receive will only increase, and I don't know what to do with it."
"And I know you and I are alike, Cupcake. I give you a lot of pocket money every month and you don't even spend most of it. I feel proud of you for it. If you were over the legal age, I could seriously consider giving you at least half of this money, and you could do anything you wanted with it. But it would be too irresponsible of to do that when you are still a teen. I want you to live your high school years without worrying about money and these things."
"So people might curse at because this problem I have is not even a real problem. Who would complain about extra money? But for , I don't want to be chained down by money. So, it is a problem for ."
"I guess I'm just lost for what to do." Theo sighed in a defeated voice.
The two siblings ran for a while in complete silence, each one with their own thoughts.
When suddenly Aurora's eyes lit up.
She had an idea and she had to tell Theo about it.
