1. "......"
2. "...was it that obvious?"
3. "How did you figure it out, mr. Garth?"
4. "Um, well..."
5. In truth, this wasn't the main reason that garth knew. Something far more profound lay behind his remarkable powers of observation...
6. As a child, garth was introverted and shy and had no friends of his age. The leinsters were also too busy running their business to regularly keep their son company.
7. Afraid that her younger "Brother" would be lonely by himself, yvonne would frequently go to keep him company and read him storybooks.
8. Garth came to love reading immensely under the influence of yvonne.
9. The merchant fleet would usually bring back many popular bestsellers when they returned to port, which afforded garth a great chance to be exposed to a variety of literary genres.
10. But among them, garth was drawn to books of an increasingly popular genre, one which depicted stories between girls.
11. They were different from other romance stories, and their delicate portrayals of feminine feelings and forbidden romances that transcended all rules opened up a new world that garth found himself lost in.
12. And in the present, after reading practically every single genre of novel that could be bought at the market, had evolved into a new state of being-
13. "Affectionate feelings between girls are just the best!!!"
15. "Miss dorothy, you didn't once take your eyes off my sister from the moment we met."
17. "Only a person who likes another will look at them with such a passionate gaze."
