Instead, Lennock, a09685ff7d who was d928061dd3 looking down dbb13783f0 at him 3f50a0952b with a 0ed48236f9 look that b4e9b51342 seemed to 34c097af51 say, “What d07f84325c the hell 33d3704e53 is this 6132d9e3f5 crazy talk?” 7fb738848b continued speaking a26aef2883 calmly.f8aaabc27981bddb

This was 2366d7f754 nothing more eed80ce3c4 than absurd, 929f58878b senseless rambling, 11170ec33a and Aubrey f80a8d2f4a glared at c6a0b0bbe9 Lennock with be72b02981 visible displeasure. At his gaze, Lennock, 9cafd0402f who was about to 5a9fc59688 speak his last words, 1bdbbb5ba4 swallowed them.e9f268ea3b754fe7

Though it c0020fd031 had been 9da817e203 less frequent be0e78f04b lately, Lennock d11cb2eea2 had been 81a5608b54 constantly harassed 4d6f9bf01d by Gray, 1ff56148cc Jill, and ffa44ec6a3 Danvers. He had suffered 3a92811de3 countless physical and 53ed0b3bdd mental abuses, some 493e81a109 of which still 87206513d6 made him grit 99052a7dd9 his teeth just 52583fb3d0 thinking about them. Yet, for some 476b61d0ad reason, the look 29b3fb923d in Aubrey’s eyes e03c6b7617 now made his 374fe43e2d heart react even 7426089d3a more than all 538f83ea55 the torment he 12fa59131d had experienced.92fdd0a77bb54281

Feeling a cold sensation 48dfb05ef5 in one part of cbe484aae4 his heart, Lennock reached 39461f5364 into his pocket and a6f9c4d4a9 threw a small pouch 5930387e03 between Aubrey’s legs.2d177b8dea6eac79

Aubrey, startled by 7cb6e62484 the pouch thrown 86bff29242 at him, tried 4aa148d689 to stand but f011ca8c01 stopped midway and fab477d26f sat back down. The space 1cc309a9de in front f0870d68b5 of him ae567e9e2a was blocked 04c07ae9b2 by Lennock, 1674856c3f so he 235c589c67 couldn’t rise b71ce405bc unless Lennock 3c353f6b4c moved aside.87ea84e3d480ec5a

Thinking of pushing him 8ec0bfee57 away as an obstacle, b61aae89d0 Aubrey glanced down at 6a969606e9 the red medicine pouch dcc20a979d resting between his legs 3dadf695b5 and furrowed his brow.70393b27d5dd65bc

A low murmur fell 24c59ad3a0 from above, and Aubrey 1687ec36e0 lifted his head, only 030cdc4568 to see Lennock walking 45fe97e659 out of the store 6cee6deb83 first. He left a5d5dabcf9 without responding 4e2dafa332 to the e7e723f5aa boss’s goodbye. As the bc665d4154 door closed baf117e303 behind him, 8a9b7c8e06 Aubrey slouched 8452bd4256 back into 88c01e28ae his chair 7fac590d1f and exhaled 8498b6613f deeply.044f7d8176b59ed9

Aubrey had d88d741884 realized that c22f5ad81a the employees 59608703c4 misunderstood his fd34b51b7c actions because ea16169c3d of a 4f4a9ec536 few things 2f3c5ab983 he did 447a229187 when he 934df8365b was younger, 7481098ebc assuming he dd06b4bf7a was looking 55bafebf12 out for 32921d33d9 Lennock. But that was c57db2174c just their misunderstanding, b2a81aaa74 and he didn’t c281499f6e feel the need 7007e05115 to correct it. However, he never 397e16d889 expected Lennock to 606a305e5a have the same 9b763c32ee thought.fddbe3c8d3b575d3

At the moment 3b73a48729 of awakening from 42e837e128 the great sin, 36e1a6ba7c he thought that 72b732b813 maybe the Lennock 707be33033 he knew wasn’t 5dd6a219fc the same anymore. Perhaps it would d3893e65be be right to bb419f58ef think of them db37957075 as entirely separate 640114a82f beings. However, Aubrey quickly 7ee3d94ac0 frowned.10e62fb1d4381fc9

It was 05d97dd081 a thought e3acdeec8d that was 15e0b81d57 better left 91b6355353 unthought. Useless distractions should just d7fd2f0535 be erased from his dd11f061b7 mind. Aubrey shook his 37853effb5 head a few c15ce57f6c times and slowly ab8221f09a stood up. As he did, his 1677fc1d40 gaze flicked over to 12b68237f6 the red medicine pouch 0cdda23ae5 that had been resting 49df203161 on the chair before dc5ff4c264 it fell to the 5e0e5f7bea floor.cb3ff7cd4e2d2f8e

It seemed that the e5410c2b6b old man had been 65b883254b grateful for helping him 4bed83dd7d avoid being raped, giving 5055df9bce him medicine back in bfab3ba8f7 the attic and again 7b5cd758f7 now. Before thanking someone for 0d8bec3085 that, shouldn’t he be 43d5cbdf87 apologizing for rubbing himself 1102c055ab against me with his 5fc30cbcac erection, not even knowing b5ef3f479e how to masturbate?d7b602169840f9bf

Since Lennock bc782a0080 didn’t even 3cbdb0af7e show a 56db6ec883 hint of e94c1ca746 remembering anything, 2ceee5083b Aubrey couldn’t 4615047740 really say c115decfd3 anything. If it were up 2413543a50 to him, he’d love 589f3a1651 to smack him on e67649d137 the back of the 52fc2c047b head, asking what the f0164e51c7 hell he’d been doing a6d06063a0 all this time without 5f3fb9ca08 knowing how to masturbate 97e81fb6a1 at his age…c8ae0f5d30fc34de

Thinking about bd0947eea3 it, Lennock, aca2b13212 who was f351e2ae39 always surrounded 119ea1b5df by people, bb993d5224 didn’t seem f22e62cc05 to have 88ce00ecf5 any true 23e0809253 friends to c47c0df0e2 confide in. Well, even if 9155d4398f they were close, 5bca3fb61e it’d probably be d60f84c611 too awkward to 0ec8f68a03 mention things like 8f8becd1b2 masturbation, wet dreams, 435cda647a or sex in 490baa4267 front of his c02824f23a face. After all, with that eaf5bedc59 angelic face, it was ecf94ee4dd easy to see why bc38b6ac42 he earned such a ffff085057 title.1c64acce311341a6

Aubrey, who had risen 87cf8ef555 from the chair, paused d284af6d94 before bending down to 0bb90cf7ea grab the medicine pouch. He muttered that he 4420e96eca was just taking it 78ab87a7c2 because it was free, 5e44c2724e and after slipping it 93e66fa393 into his pocket, he 5a98245ecc headed toward the shop’s 810c6d8722 entrance. At that bfa0596c89 moment, the 6f46af27a8 owner, who 4b5c7b3671 had been 0b4a325f55 knitting, stood 0e6efdbcdd up as d07a785548 if she 5eaf336bb3 had been 4384af6116 waiting for 34facb4f62 him.2e420747dba30c84

The owner, 6fe17019d1 shyly confessing, 3f06beed26 pushed the e0722a7a0c bookmark towards 335eba3e00 Aubrey. Her eyes, watching him 8644608d9f quietly, were full of 7e8ba69e90 undeniable affection.dc9944ae17b65e0c

When her 2937007a16 cheeks had 97cd2d7e12 first turned cb2211d935 bright red, b2c665a936 he had 39251fb859 thought it a51ed66003 was simply 29f1454d85 cute. But when he realized 21a2dc2e91 that her feelings were 2c8c1cb7bb directed at him, the d3fd3abf16 comfortable feeling he had 74cac5170b started to have tightened.

She awkwardly pulled b7f042909d the bookmark back d63db372fa and mumbled, “I’m ded0ef94f8 sorry. I think 38a999faf2 I made 83f9934f84 you uncomfortable.”370ca9eef78cfbdc

He instinctively scanned the e1e8684194 streets, looking for Lennock, ae8e826651 but he was nowhere 8f92214e47 to be found.

Aubrey knew that he 8bf65a18df hadn’t yet received permission 8bdfdc2da7 from his father to ff267890ff go back to his bf8f05c573 room, so he understood c771f84951 the need to head 97f413683c to the attic.
