The strange thing is he had never tried to recall them or think how endearing they are.Even though they had spent so much time together, he's still not able to understand what their true nature is like.At last, he was finally able to have his answer. '' I have realised what you are talking about,'' Robin replied to Noir.'' And what's that?''.'' I love both of them the way they are like. Lucy sometimes acts cruel towards me but that's a part of her charm. Christina has stayed with me longer than Lucy did, but she's the best friend I could ever have.
