Edward narrowed his sharp, clear eyes, barely saying a word, yet his silent presence alone was enough to cast an invisible pressure over everyone nearby.

Alfred felt his breath catch under this unspoken authority. Still, stubborn as ever, he ignored his older brother, his clear eyes betraying a hint of reluctant grievance. He had known Melody three years ago, or perhaps even earlier.

This Melody was the same girl from the photograph in Edward's drawer.

She was also the same girl who had been a transfer student in the dance class next to his extracurricular interest club. He remembered she studied ballet.

Even at just 16, she had a delicate elegance, with a slender waist and graceful neck, a face so refined and poised.

Back then, Melody was stunning, and the boys in his street dance club, a bunch of privileged heirs, had made frequent attempts to chat her up.

Yet there was always this tall, lanky young man in black, a silent, ever-present shadow who guarded her.

His fierce look and casual arrogance clashed sharply with Melody's quiet, gentle beauty, and he would personally escort her every time, keeping anyone from daring to approach. That's when he noticed something else.

His brother, who usually couldn't be bothered to give him a second glance, suddenly began to drop him, off at his extracurricular club.

At first, he thought it was amusing.

He was convinced that his brother was finally taking his education seriously. It made him throw himself into street dance with extra enthusiasm.

However, it wasn't long before a feeling of suspicion crept in.

Every time, Edward would find a reason to pass by the neighboring classroom, sometimes even stopping outside the ballet studio, his gaze coolly drifting in, but with a light that slowly turned almost-entranced.

Taking advantage of a break, Alfred snuck over, just in time to see what his brother was looking at through the glass.

There stood Melody, tall and slender, her skin pale as fresh snow, wrapped in a figure-hugging white dress that swayed like delicate silk with her every movement

She danced alone under the lights.

Her motions were graceful, weightless as a swallow, her body soft like drifting clouds, and her arms so fluid they seemed boneless. With a sudden, sweeping flourish, her sleeves unfurled, fabric and skirt flowing as though a cascade of petals were scattering gently from the air.

Dressed in white with ink-black hair, her beauty was dreamlike, as if she were a flower obscured by mist, ethereal, and elusive.

In that moment, even his spirit couldn't help but be drawn to her.

It took him a while to shap out of it, and when he turned to give his brother a reproachful look, he saw Edward, usually so composed and cold, looking as if something within him had broken.

Unsurprised by his presence, Edward glanced his way and, in a rare gesture, reached out and tousled his hair. His low and hoarse voice held an unfamiliar gentleness. "You've grown taller, but still too young

A hint of something hidden lurked in Edward's eyes as he adjusted his cuff, trying to suppress the shadow in his gaze as if he were fighting to keep it all together.

He had to hold himself together!

At last, he pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses, his Adam's apple bobbing as he turned away, leaving only a solitary, elegant figure.

"Edward, I'm not a kid!" Alfred called after him, huffing with frustration.

In 16! I'm in high school already!"

Determined to make his point, Alfred shouted at the retreating figure of his tall, aloof brother, his voice puffed with indignation.

At that moment, Edward was only 23, fresh out of university but already a cold and ruthless presence in the business world, his refined and dignified face hiding the fierce reputation of a young business tyrant. Unfortunately, Edward didn't look back that day,

He missed the small figure peeking out from behind Alfred. She's a young girl with her dark hair a little tousled, her checks faintly flushed from the dance she'd just finished.

The white dress only emphasized Melody's quiet and solitary grace.

Tilting her head, she watched Alfred, whose flustered posture had a certain charm. She reached out and gave a gentle poke to his back, still looking at the spot where Edward had disappeared. "Hey, was that older guy standing here just now a friend of Martin's?" she asked, curiosity flickering in her

eyes.

"My brother had something come up today, so he sent his friend to pick Alfred began.

Melody seemed poised to ask more when a voice called from behind her, "Mel! Martin had an appointment, so I'm here to take you home."

It was Kenrick.

Alfred didn't know the guy, but something about his polished and overly polite demeanor made him uncomfortable,

Then a sly idea struck him.

He extended his hand to Melody with a triendly smile and spoke, "Tu from the street dance class next door. My name's Altres!

"Actually, I'm thinking of switching classes. Do you guys allow boys in the ballet club And I'm in a bit of a rush, so let's exchange numbers Alfred was well aware, thanks to his rowdy friends, that Melody helped out as an assistant in the dance club

He was intentionally baiting her

Sure enough she mentioned a string of phone numbers.

Unfortunately, though, he later handed off the number to his brother, who dialed it only to be greeted by Melody's older brother, Martin.

Both men ended up seated stilly on the couch, obediently staring at the phone as they got a half-hour

lecture over the line.

Thinking back on it. Alfred felt utterly mortified.

Still, it was the first time he'd seen his ever-cool older brother look even a bit flustered.

That's the reason he returned from abroad this time.
