Hiding the Twins from Their Billionaire Father by Pixie

S21 73. A Brother’s Love

“I don’t know exactly how you feel. Our situations are different. Mom and I are not as familiar as both of you are. But….” Frank stole a glance. His gaze turned sad.

“From what I’ve heard, the closer a relationship is, the more painful it is to be separated. So, I guess you’re suffering a hundred times more

than me.”

Barbara swallowed hard. Her throat was dry. She couldn’t get out the words. Only her eyes spoke. She couldn’t believe that Frank really

noticed her.

“You know the others are worried about you, right?” Frank continued.

Barbara turned away from him, worried that her emotions would

escape.

“Sorry. I didn’t mean to cause trouble. I’ve actually tried to forget about it, to be fine. But apparently, it’s not easy.”

“Then don’t.” Frank turned around, facing his half-sister. “Don’t pretend to be fine. Let out all your anger. Since the circumsta cannot be changed, we can only manage what we can control.”

Barbara shook her head. One of her hands was clenched in fron

her chest. “I can’t control myself.”

“Mom has no hope of returning to the way she was before.” Barbara’s voice turned raspy.

“That’s not what I meant. I talk about the hope for you to move on

way.”

Barbara’s cry stopped.. Out of the corner of her eye, she studied Frank.

“So, what do you want me to do? I really don’t know what to do. It’s hard to even breathe.”

Frank bent down and grabbed Barbara’s shoulders. “I want you to stop relying on yourself to deal with this trauma. You are my little sister and I am your brother.
