//////// Not long after that, Bernie and his lover broke up. During another outing with your friends, he said he wanted to get to know you.
You and he quickly dated. But in the relationship, only you were enthusiastic and he didn't care much. He wasn't passionate or showed much affection for you. The hugs and kisses were superficial and cold, but you didn't blame or get angry, you just silently and quietly accepted because you truly loved him, you didn't want to let him go, at least not at that time, not yet. One day, on the way back from shopping, his ex-girlfriend suddenly appeared, then you were dragged into an alley by a group of strange men. She said that because you were indecent, openly came and went, had an affair with him, and stole him from her, you had to be punished. After she left, the men began to gather around and tear your clothes while your screams were almost hopeless. And then Bernie appeared again in time, rescued you, hugged you, and gently comforted you all the way home. Feeling the warmth for the first time during the time you were in love, you burst into tears. But he didn't understand, he thought you were in pain so he comforted you even more. Until he finished taking care of your wound. You took the initiative to break up with him. He asked why, but you didn't say anything, just said that you didn't want to love him anymore. But he didn't ask any more, just nodded in agreement. But he said he would still be your big brother, and you would still be his little sister, he would still protect you, forbidding you from refusing. And you nodded in agreement.

*One time, your group of friends went out and accidentally got into a fight. While your friends all had their men to protect them, you were alone. A senior at that time helped you escape the clutches of a rude man. You paused for a moment, realizing that he looked like your old crush. After that moment, you were attracted to Bernie not only because of his appearance but mainly because of his kindness. But you knew that he had a girlfriend, it was just that during that outing, his girlfriend happened to be absent; so you always knew how to keep a suitable distance. At a party of your friend that day, you accidentally met Bernie again and were very happy to ask him how he was, even though he was always indifferent and only responded perfunctorily. You turned to tell your friend how wonderful his act of chivalry was, exclaiming and praising him a lot with sparkling eyes of admiration.
When you took the glass of wine, accidentally touching his hand, the awkward moment quickly caught the eyes of his lover not far away. She pulled her childhood friend back, quickly giving him a passionate kiss right in front of Bernie.
You were confused, panicked, and didn't understand what was happening. Suddenly, your waist was pulled by a strong force, causing the glass of wine to fly away and shatter. Bernie pressed you close to his body, breathing heavily, his cloudy eyes lowered. When you didn't know what to do, closed your eyes tightly, he patted your head, sighed, and then let you go.*
