I believed he genuinely wanted to give me the guitar and didn’t care about the money. I appreciated his kindness, but I couldn’t accept it without reason. 

This was my bottom line, and I had to insist on it. 

“I must give you the money. If you won’t take it, I…” 

If he wouldn’t take it, I wouldn’t accept the guitar and wouldn’t attend tomorrow’s performance. But I couldn’t finish telling him the last part. 

It wasn’t that I lacked a conscience or was ungrateful. It was not that I wanted Felix’s gift to become a tool–I could use to threaten him either, especially since he gave the guitar to me with good intentions. 

He understood my stubbornness and pinched his forehead. Raising his eyebrows helplessly, he sighed. “You’re always so stubborn. Do you have to be like this?” 

“Yes.” I gazed at him, insisting on my opinion. 

He looked at me deeply. The hushed argument lasted two minutes before he backed down and agreed to let me pay for the guitar myself. 

“Give me your bank account number. I’ll transfer it to you right now.” 

“Why are you in such a rush? It’s not as if I don’t have any money on me now.” 

“It’s nothing. It’s just that my memory isn’t good. I’m worried that if I forget it later, you might suffer huge financial losses.” 

I took out my phone and stared intently into Felix’s eyes. I acted like I would refuse to cooperate with him if he didn’t accept the money. 

Felix compromisingly took out his phone and showed me his bank account number. He was still trying to explain that we didn’t need to draw the line between us so definitively. In fact, he didn’t have much thought about it and just wanted to give me the guitar as a gift. 

I believed what he said. 

I wasn’t sure if he gave me the guitar because I loved it or because he wanted to make amends for what he had done and said. But I believed he never once considered asking for money when he gave me the guitar. 

I had to transfer the money for the guitar to him. Drawing the line between us was just

another choice I made. 

I had more than one million in savings. Felix had been exceptionally talented since childhood. He was naturally making good money at Jesselton College in recent years as well, given his genuine abilities. 

This was only 18 grand, which was nothing to us. 

But even siblings had to settle debts openly. Furthermore, our relationship had been in a delicate state for several years. Of course, it was important that I paid him back the money. 

Anyway, the guitar was to my liking. I still felt grateful to him. 

It wasn’t until Felix confirmed the payment that I felt relieved and followed him to the rehearsal classroom for the final day of practice. 

The practice ended early so that we could rest up for tomorrow’s performance. 

What was unusual was Hannah no longer pestered Felix to go out to supper together. She even left one step ahead of us. She said that she needed to reconfirm the connection in 

various locations. The rehearsal for tomorrow morning also required further arrangement and organization. 

After she left, only eight people remained in the classroom, including Felix and me. 

When the juniors said their goodbyes and left, Felix and I were the only two people on the quiet road. 

“It’s very late. I’ll walk you back.” 

He stretched out casually to pick up my guitar, but I avoided him. 

“No, we’re on the college campus. It’s extremely safe here. I can go back by myself, thank you. See you tomorrow. 

I turned to leave, but Felix grabbed my arm and said with a rare hint of fury, “Even if you want to draw such a clear line with me, there’s no need to jeopardize your safety. I’ll send you back. You’re not allowed to refuse.”
