My Brother and I, Both 17

17 

I paced anxiously outside the hospital room, where my brother had just been taken into 

surgery

Hunter draped a jacket over my shoulders and said softly, Don’t worry. This is the best hospital in the country. Your brother will be fine.” 

My chest tightened, and I couldn’t hold back the tears anymore

He can’t be hurt. I only have him! He’s all I have left!” 

Hunter pulled me into a comforting hug, his expression full of concern

But the one who looked even more worried was Holden. He sat silently in the corner, his 

face pale and tense

Finally, the doors to the operating room opened

When the doctor announced that my brother was out of danger, it felt like all the strength left my body

The next thing I knew, I was collapsing

Just before I passed out, I saw Hunter’s panicked face hovering above me

Maybemaybe I could try liking someone again

We merfolk heal at a speed far beyond that of humansat least ten times faster

In just one day, my brother was already fully recovered

When he opened his eyes. I couldn’t hold back anymore. I threw myself on him and

sobbed uncontrollably

He was my only family, after all

Being hugged so tightly clearly made him uncomfortable.. 

It had been so long since I’d held him like thisprobably not since we were kids

Even though he was embarrassed, I could tell he was a little happy, too

Despite his quick recovery, Holden refused to let him leave the hospital

That’s when I started noticing something strange between them

Really strange

My brother was actingdifferent

He’d become softer, almost delicate

93

I didn’t fully understand what was going on until one day, I accidentally walked in on the 

two of them kissing

It all clicked

Everything suddenly made sense

After everything they’d been through, after narrowly escaping death together, my brother 

and Holden had finally realized their feelings for each other

They were together now

I didn’t care that my brother’s partner was a guy. As long as he was happy, that was all that mattered to me

But then I realized something else

I was rich

Ever since my brother marriedHolden, my bank account had been filling up every 

week

At this point, I could probably afford ten islands

If I’d known my brother was this valuable, I’d have married him off to Holden ages ago
