“But I hope that if you can’t hold on anymore, then let go of me… The children can live without their father, but they need you.

“Nigel and Nellie have already lost Neil. I can’t let them lose their mother, too.“

Luna bit down on her lip and stared at Joshua. She could not help but feel her chest tighten when she saw the dim look in Joshua’s eyes.

“Don’t you dare move! “ Luna yelled as she furrowed her brows. “I can still hold onto you! Besides— “

She bit down on her lip and finally spilled the secret she had discovered in hopes that Joshua would keep his hope. “Neil is actually alive. Joshua, Neil is alive, and so is Theo! “

Joshua, who had been struggling to release himself from her grasp, paused when he heard this. He lifted his head to stare at her with wide eyes. “What… What are you talking about?“

“I said, they’re still alive! “ Luna bit down on her lip. “Joshua, you can’t die. You have to help me find Neil! You were the reason that I almost lost him in the first place, but now that he’s still alive, you have to help me find him! If you don’t, can you even call yourself a man?! “

Joshua remained silent for a moment upon hearing this. Then, he curled his lips into a smile and muttered, “Neil is alive… Neil is alive, after all…“

He lifted his head to fixate his unfaltering gaze on Luna’s face. “Since Neil didn’t die in the explosion… Does this mean I don’t owe you that much anymore, Luna?“
