Sean scoffed, turning and going back inside without another word.

Lilly and Coco followed him inside, and Sean said, “Close the door!”

Lilly said. “I was going to, you didn’t have to tell me!”

Not only did she close the door- she locked it from the inside as well.

Why was there something ominous about her doing that?

“What do you want?” Sean asked. “You’re not even here to heal my sister, why are you staring at me

like that?”

Lilly said. “You’re the only person who can heal Cathy!

Oh. Another person was trying to trick him.

“If you’re here to try to get me to be nicer to my sister or to apologize to my parents, you can get out

right.now.”

Sean did not appreciate the gesture at all. He sat down on his study chair, propping his legs up on the

table and flicked through a book lazily.

Lilly took a closer look. He was reading a physics textbook.

Sean did, indeed, work hard.

He just never wanted his parents to know the real him at all.

Why was that?

Lilly had always had a good relationship with her family, and could not understand why Sean felt that

way about his parents.

He clearly loved his parents and his sister, but refused to let them care for him and threw tantrums and

argued with everyone all the time.

His parents clearly loved him as well, but only knew to yell at him all the time.

Cathy sat on Sean’s bed, playing with the toys in his room on her own. Lilly realized then that there

were Cathy’s toys in Sean’s room as well.

Lilly said. “Sean, you could’ve explained yourself when Aunt Melissa was yelling at you just now. Why

didn’t you?”

Sean scoffed. “Why should I explain myself?”

Frustrated, he tossed his book away.

Lilly said, “It was a misunderstanding, you could’ve explained yourself?”

She did not get it. Why the constant misunderstandings? Why hurt each other by not understanding

each other?

Sean squinted all of a sudden, staring at Lilly and saying coldly, “Do you know Churchill?”

There’s a church on a hillt

My god, he almost forgot what he was going to say.

“Churchill has a quote that goes like this: If someone accuses you of eating his food, do not dit your

stomach open to prove yourself. Instead, dig his eyes out and swallow them so he can have a look

after”

Sean leered at Lilly That’s my life’s motto!”

He wanted to scare Lilly to tears, smirking coldly at her. ‘So don’t try to get me to come to my senses.

Get on my bad side, and 111 dig your eyes out!”

He stared at a dazed Lilly, thinking that she was scared as he let out a chuckle.

The next second. Lilly’s expression turned into one of confusion. “Why do you have to dig their eyes

out!”

Sean said coldly. “Why else? Should I slit my stomach open to prove myself?”

Lilly, “You can prove it when you poop.”

Sean had not expected Lilly to say that. He promptly choked.

Lilly continued. “You can even go as far as putting their heads in your poop to get a closer look. Why

choose violence when you can settle things peacefully?”

Slitting open stomachs and digging eyes out… this Churchill guy was terrifying.

She was suggesting putting someone’s head in poop! What was peaceful about that?

Cathy lifted her head, suddenly excited. “Put their heads in poop! Put their heads in poop!”

Pablo did not know what to say. “Put their heads in poop?” Weren’t they here to catch a ghost?

Why were they on the subject of poop?

Lilly said, “But because they’re your parents, you shouldn’t be putting their heads in poop… Sean, Aunt

Melissa lectured you because she wanted you to do better. You can just prove yourself.”

Sean leaned back with his hands behind his head, his feet on the table. “Why is that their business? I’ll

do whatever I want.”

He was an independent person, not a pawn free to be controlled by his parents.

Telling him all day and night how hard it was to buy a house in the top school district in hopes of guilt-

tripping him into being grateful and doing well in school.

He had his own thoughts, and was not going to be controlled by others!

Pablo chuckled to himself. “Wow, what a rebel.”

His parents were left in the dark, all because he stubbornly refused to tell them anything.

To put it exactly, he was stubborn because he felt like other people could not understand him.

On another hand, there were so many introverts who found it hard to express what they truly wanted

out of embarrassment and shame, who instead turned to hiding themself behind a mask.

Lilly shook her head. “Sean, you’re far too rebellious!”

Sean chuckled. “That’s right, I am rebellious!”

“If the King of Hell wants me to die by noon, I’ll die at midnight just because I can! That’s how much of

a rebel bam! What about it?”

Whoa, you really are a rebel. Lilly, a.k.a. the King of Hell thought to herself.
