Kelly said calmly, “Ken is telling the truth. I love
my career in satellite research and I also love him.”

is eyes.
Suddenly, he raised his fist and rammed it on Ken’s face, while roaring, “Ken! You’re fucking bastard! I’ve been treating you like a brother but you snatched away the woman I love! Don’t you have a heart?”
His outburst made Kelly afraid and she cried out in alarm, “Ken!”

Kelly’s eyes widened in disbelief and asked, “Go back? Do you want me to go back to being your so–called little sister while I watch you dote on other women? George, is that how little you think of me?”
Seeing her angry, George became panic. He immediately explained, “That’s not what I meant! Back then, I was the cowardly one. I didn’t understand my own feeling. It was my fault to think that I love you as a sibling so your love made me disgusted.”
