“Carle, you don’t have to do this. You don’t need to be my guardian angel.” Elisa could finally finish what she wanted to say, “You must go on and live your own life. Otherwise, you would lose your purpose in life.”

She meant to say it would be a waste of his time and life purpose to be her guardian angel.

But she worried that Carle might misinterpret her meaning.

Yet, Carle still misinterpreted her words. His breathing started to quicken, and his voice was croaky, “Liz, are you not willing to befriend me? I will stop bugging you. We can go back to how we used to be.”

Elisa was alarmed and frantically explained, “No, that’s not what I meant. Don’t misunderstand. I mean, we can still be friends. You have always been my friend and brother in my heart. I was trying to say that you don’t have to protect me because it’s very tiring.”

Carle breathed a sigh of relief. He relished Elisa’s willingness to go back to being friends with him.

But he would still protect her no matter what. Elisa was the most important woman to him. He refused to let anything bad happen to her or to let anyone bully her. Even if it meant sacrificing his own life to keep her whole, he would do it in a heartbeat.
