The Author's POV

Chapter 555

"What did you want to talk about?"

Gazing into the distance from one of the park benches, I sat.

"Haa..."

The person next to me, Kevin, sighed and leaned back on the bench.

"You know, if you had answered my calls, I wouldn't have had to come all the way here."

"...I was kind of busy, you know?"

I replied whilst scratching the side of my neck. I actively chose not to use my phone while I was spending time with Amanda, as I thought that it would be rude of me to do so.

In addition, I was here to understand my feelings properly. Not to play around with my phone.

"...and, after sending me over a hundred messages just this morning, I wouldn't know if you sent me a message.

"Whose fault do you think that is?"

Kevin glared my way.

His eyebrows shot up as he suddenly recalled something.

"Now that you've reminded me, fix what you did."

"Right…"

Almost forgot that Kevin's memories were still altered.

"Empty your mind."

A gentle white hue enshrouded my hands as I extended them towards Kevin.

I was just about to touch Kevin's head when he backed away and warily glanced my way.

His reaction made me frown.

"What are you doing?"

"…I'm telling you now, you better not pull off another one of your jokes."

"I won't, I won't."

Waving my hand, I reached out to grab his head.

The only reason I even did what I did back then was because I wanted to confirm a couple of things regarding the skill.

If I used the skill too often, I would end up losing Kevin's trust.

"Relax a bit. If you do it like last time, you will suffer a bit of pain."

"I know."

In a harsh reply, Kevin closed his eyes.

After that, an intense white light illuminated the area we were in for several seconds. It came as fast as it went, but it was enough to attract the attention of the people around us who looked at us with strange looks.

'Figures…'

My grip on Kevin's head soon loosened, and he gradually opened his eyes.

"How are you feeling?"

I asked.

After pulling a small card from his wallet, Kevin glanced at me briefly before ignoring me and staring at it.

Similarly looking at the card in his hand, I recognized what the card was based on its color.

"Is that your ID card?"

I was met with no response.

As Kevin ignored me, his eyes swept left and right across the card. While he was scrutinizing the card, his face was filled with serious expressions.

"...everything seems to be in order."
