As he finished speaking, Little Six looked up again.
"Mono's... parents... are they gone too?" she said quietly.
Mono nodded.
"Yes, they're all... gone."
At this mont, he could only silently apologize to his parents in the other world.
To comfort Six, he had essentially beco an unfilial son.
He simply wanted to comfort Six.
"Then... isn't Mono sad?"
Six's voice ca again.
Mono shook his head. "What's the use of being sad?"
"So things, once lost, are gone forever. Since we're still alive, we should plan for tomorrow. What use is there in constantly dwelling on past sorrows..."
Six was stunned.
Why would such sorrowful words co from Mono's mouth? Had he, like her, also experienced unimaginable pain? But why couldn't she move on?
While he could... be so...
Mono suddenly crouched down and looked at the still-dazed Six, smiling. "How about this? From now on, why don't you treat as your family? What do you think?"
Little Six snapped out of it.
Family?
"Is Mono... willing... to be my... family?"
Her pitch-black eyes, filled with hope, gazed silently at Mono.
Mono nodded with a smile.
Family... that's a step closer than friends.
This way, Six definitely wouldn't harbor any designs on him easily. Plus, it would comfort her.
It was killing two birds with one stone.
"Then... will Mono... always... stay with ?"
Six's uniquely indifferent voice
ca again.
Mono was taken aback.
"This..."
This question stumped him.
Who can stay with soone forever?
He wanted to promise Six.
But... he didn't want to lie to her.
Because once a promise is made, he would definitely see it through.
But, staying with Six forever.
Was that realistic?
In this world, they had co together for survival. What if they left this place?
Would they still be able to talk like this? Things often change in ways that exceed one's imagination.
Perhaps, at any mont, he might be swallowed whole by a monster erging from so corner.
Eternity... probably doesn't exist.
However, he quite liked Six, so what should he do?
Besides, the two of them had experienced so much... contact along the way.
Even though she was a child, he should take responsibility no matter what. How could he refuse?
Seeing Mono remain silent, Six's star-like eyes flickered slightly. Was it... not okay?
Just as she was feeling nervous and disappointed—
"Of course... I will always stay with Little Liu."
H
Mono's voice suddenly ca through,
"Until... the day Little Liu no longer wants as family."
Mono finally spoke up.
Although this promise seed sowhat difficult to fulfill.
Nevertheless, he said it anyway.
Compared to a difficult challenge, what mattered more to him was having no regrets. Mono would not do anything against his own heart.
If he liked her, he liked her, so he would go through with it. Why worry so much? Did he want to wait until he was dead to act?
Therefore, it seed he could only agree to Six's request.
"Mono... are you telling the truth?"
The questioning tone carried a hint of joy and a hint of nervousness. Seeing Six's jubilant yet calm appearance, Mono's heart relaxed.
However, thinking about how he had been moved by Six again and even made a vow, he suddenly felt a bit unpleasant again.
"Really, really, okay? I don't want to say it a second ti. I'm going to sleep."
Having said that, Mono waved his hand, crossed his arms, and lay back against the wooden board.
Seeing this, Six blinked her eyes.
Her pitch-black eyes were full of confusion.
It was quiet for only a short while.
The slightly depressed Mono felt a small head lean against him. Before he could even open his eyes, a soft whisper ca: "Little Liu likes Mono the most..." Hearing the faint voice, Mono was slightly stunned...
