Chapter 124

• Brook.
• Zero cries without stopping for a long time, he doesn't say anything when he finally calms down, he just releases me and settles next to me, he brings his knees together and rests his forehead on his arms, I approach him and rest my head on his shoulder, he tenses slightly at the contact but doesn't pull away or ask me to move away. Seeing him like this breaks my soul, I would like to be able to understand what is happening to him and what he has, but he should not ask.
• - Why? - His hoarse voice surprises me, I turn to see him, his face is still hidden in his arms. - Why do you care so much? - continues and I sigh "I care about you, Zero," I murmur and he laughs softly.
