One and Only
120 - Still Wrong.


Next day.


Being on the battlefield made Yura even more unable to relax at will to make her wake up from sleep early in the morning even earlier than usual. Yura was unlikely to wake up later when others might not even sleep because of having to keep on guard.


Right now Yura was preparing to take care of her hair before moving out of the tent. Because of her long hair, Yura had to tie her hair to facilitate her mobility because Yura could not be willing to cut her favorite hair short.


Usually Yura always let her long hair down beautifully, in contrast to now who is on the battlefield until Yura has to adjust and appearance while there.


While being busy taking care of her hair, Yura realized and could feel that there was someone right outside the tent because she might be hesitant to enter.


"I'm getting ready to straighten my hair. Brother Yasha, is that you? Please come in, ", Yura


After remaining silent for a while, finally the curtain of the tent was preoccupied and someone entered the tent occupied by Yura.


Yura was sitting in front of a mirrorless table and her position was against the curtain which was the access to the tent so that the girl did not know who had entered her tent and only thought that is his eldest brother.


"Sir Yasha, are things safe outside? Don't you have any business like organizing war strategy or pre-war physical training with your army of soldiers? Then, can you please help me tie my hair like I used to?" yura asked.


The person who was thought by Yura was her eldest brother finally began to touch the long, fine and beautiful hair after just continuing to remain silent without making a sound.


"It's an honor for me and I'm happy to do it. I can also tie women's hair and often do it for Azkia first. May that ability still exist and I can tie Yura's hair without taking away her beauty," her inner self that turns out not to be Yasha, but Arvan.


"Usually Brother always babbles when I ask to tie my hair because it's a troublesome thing, when I know Kak Yasha likes to do it because Sister loves me. Now Brother Yasha is not nagging like before, is it because now Brother is an adult? I am an adult now too, brother. Is my hair so hard to manage? What, when I grow up, my hair turns rough?" ask Yura


"No, your hair feels smooth and looks beautiful, Yura ." replied Arvan in a low voice.


"I also like to do it, being able to tie your hair like this makes me feel happy, but I won't nag. I'm not Yasha, I'm Arvan. The one who loves you as a man towards a woman, not as a family or a sister towards her sister. I am also a man who loves you very much" Arvan continued, muttering in his heart.


This time Yura also fell silent. Actually Yura was already suspicious when the entrance into the tent continued to make no sound and the touch of hands on her hair felt different from the touch of Yasha's. Even though it had been a very long time not to meet, Yura still remembered the touch from her eldest brother.


The last question from him was deliberately Yura did to ascertain who entered his tent. Until when he heard the answer to the question from her, Yura could confirm with great confidence that it was not her eldest brother. Yura also recognized and memorized enough with the voice that belonged to Arvan.


"Why are you quiet?" asked Arvan who ventured because she wanted to hear Yura's voice again.


"Aren't you the one who kept quiet before I spoke, Arvan?" ask back Yura


"You've realized that this is me. Aren't you happy when it's me and not your brother?" ask Arvan again.


"Why didn't you tell me it was you who came in here?" ask Yura again for the second time.


"Are you still mad at me, Yura?" ask Arvan again for the next time.


"Come, it doesn't seem to be. " replied Yura


"I've even forgotten the reason why I should be angry. Why are you still questioning it? Then, why and what did you want to get in here?" asked Yura who immediately turned her body facing towards Arvan.


"I just want to see and see you. As expected, you still look beautiful even with your hair tied up" said Arvan with a small smile.


"Before I really thought you were Yasha's sister. Thank you for helping me tie my hair. You're better than Yasha's sister when it comes to helping to tie hair. You're more adept at doing it than my brother," Yura said


"I just kept doing it for Azkia before this, don't misunderstand me. I've never done it to another woman because I've never had a boyfriend other than a little sister" Arvan said, which sounded like an excuse.


"Who would want to misunderstand you? You say that like you're trying to deny. It seems like at least you've met a woman a lot and done sweet and fun things for her even without the status of a couple" Yura said


"Absolutely never. Why do you think like that? If it's the same way you've misunderstood me" said Arvan


"Alright, sorry that I already fucked you. Now you can get out of this" Yura said


"Are you really not angry with me? But, why do you even want to kick me out now?" ask Arvan


"You're thinking too much and you're the one who misunderstood me. I'm not angry, but wouldn't it be inappropriate for us to be in the same room just the two of us like this? So it's better for one of us to go outside" Yura replied


Yura got up from her seat and prepared to move out of the tent if Arvan did not want to go outside first.


"Yura, you know that I like you, right? I've told you before" said Arvan


"Because you just say it carelessly, then I assume I never heard it. This time or before," said Yura who immediately stopped when she heard Arvan's words.


"How can you say that? How can you judge my feelings carelessly?" ask Arvan


"You yourself have also admitted that you like the Queen, my sister ." Yura said


"That was before I realized my feelings for you and before I realized that saving me from being chased by dogs as a child was you and not Yuna. I just misjudged that you were her and misunderstood my own feelings, but now I know and am sure who I really feel for. My feelings are only for you, Yura. I've always liked girls who saved me from chasing dogs as a kid" Arvan said


"No, quite the opposite. I think you're still mistaken for your feelings. Maybe it's true what you like is the girl who saved you in the past, but from the moment you thought that girl was Yuna's sister and all this time you were and stayed close to Yuna's sister during your time working in the Royal Palace, so that's how long you just like and your feelings are only focused on Brother Yuna," said Yura


"Maybe even today it's still like that. You just can't have Yuna's sister who's already Queen to the King and with that inexpressible feeling of yours, you met me. Until you can only shift your feelings to me who has a face similar to Brother Yuna. You just think of me as a substitute. You can't and shouldn't continue to deny that and your own feelings" Yura continued


"Think about it, ask it, and look carefully into the depths of your heart .. Who do you really like? Sorry, Arvan. For now I can only assume that you are quibbling from reality and are mistaken with your own feelings. If you insist on saying you like me, then I can only consider you a loser who cannot accept the reality of your own feelings" Yura continued.


Yura's words managed to make Arvan speechless and silent on the spot as if he could brainwash her. However, Arvan felt that what Yura said was true until she felt betrayed by her own feelings. Yura's words were indeed capable of hurting her heart, however Arvan felt that he had offended Yura for not being able to have a stand on his own feelings and felt as if he really only regarded Yura as a substitute.


After saying a long word, Yura left Arvan and left the tent first.


"I'm sorry, Yura. Because you seem to be right with all of your words. I'm just a bad guy who can't make a stand on my own feelings" Arvan's inner self-deprecated and self-cursed inner self.
