And on top of that, everyone he met in this luxurious room kept looking at him with slightly lonely expressions, which made him feel guilty.
But more than anything...
Seeing how exhausted Somnus looked, even to an outsider, made him feel incredibly guilty.
Seriously...
He wanted to scream an apology at the top of his lungs.
Because no one had explained things to him in detail yet, he did not fully understand it, but it seemed that Somnus and he had been quite close before.
Somnus appeared to be busy and the amount of time he spent together with him was not very much.
Even so, whenever Somnus was nearby, his chest felt light and soft somehow.
More than with anyone else, he felt calm, relaxed and safe around him.
Could it be that Somnus had been his guardian?
But he had no memory at all of having such an unbelievably handsome man in his family.
He vaguely felt like he might have had a younger brother, but he was fairly sure he had not had an older brother.
