[BL] Lick Me Up If You Can (Book 2)

Chapter 205

Ariel, who was sitting in the living room reading a book, got up and headed to the door when she heard the faint ringing of the bell.

"Welcome, did you do well today? What does Julie say... ... ?"

Ariel's voice gradually faded. Koi passed by her and headed straight to her living room. The smile disappeared from her face, which had been smiling with curiosity and joy, and Ariel hurriedly walked after her koi.

"what's the matter? "What happened?"

I watched Koi anxiously in the kitchen, pouring a cup full of water and drinking it, and only then did Koi, wiping the wet corners of his mouth, open his mouth.

"Al, I have something to ask you."

"Uh, huh. "Say it, come on."

Ariel stuttered unusually. Her koi asked in a low voice to Ariel, who was waiting with her brows drawn together with an ominous premonition.

"Did you know Ash was engaged?"

Ariel was momentarily embarrassed and speechless. Her eyes were wide open and her mouth was speechless in response, and her koi muttered in despair.

"You knew."

Ariel tried to say something, but soon gave up and looked away. Unable to face Koi, she hesitated before speaking.

"I didn't have a chance to talk."

"You should have done it, you knew!"

Koi spoke with unusual emotion.

"I knew I had come this far by only watching Ash for over 10 years, so why... ... ."

Koi, who had spoken up to that point, covered his face with both hands. He let out a boiling sigh and apologized in a miserable voice.

"Sorry."

His voice was muttered, muffled by his hand, and his pronunciation was unclear. But Koi continued speaking while still covering his face.

"I know there is nothing wrong with you. I'm the one who came this far to say that it doesn't matter if Ash has a partner. ... ... "I should have known that even if I was alone now, I could have done that in the past."

He poured out the words as if spewing them out between trembling breaths.

"Ash told me I was the only one the whole time."

"Koy."

"You said that you were the only one, like me, that you only liked me, so I, even if you didn't say that, I, like... ... like this... ... ."

"Koy."

Ariel urgently hugged her friend and hurriedly confessed.

"I'm sorry, I should have told you sooner... ... You were so happy, I couldn't tell you. It's been a long time already, and I never thought I'd find out like this. I knew Ash was lying to you, but... ... Since you were so happy, I thought maybe Ash might have changed his mind... ... I'm sorry, Koi. I'm really sorry."

Koi was still breathing heavily with his face buried in his hands. For a while, Ariel just hugged him. Koi, who seemed to have barely managed to control his emotions to some extent, opened his mouth.

"Are you there again?"

He continued speaking in a very hoarse voice.

"Do you know that Ash is deceiving me?"

Ariel couldn't answer right away. She swallowed her dry saliva and hesitated, then sighed and confessed.

"Ash doesn't love you."
