Chapter 109.2

“Brother!”

“Yes?”

“It’s so bad that you talk like that with your mouth. I like an older brother who is reliable even if I don’t say anything. Other than my brother who says he’s cool, someone who only talks with words is really cool too.”

As if he was quite shocked by the unexpected words, the colt brother stopped walking for a while.

“Really…? So am I really that bad?”

I did not answer. I just smiled and walked past by.

Leaving my brother like that, I quickly went back to my room, holding my mother’s hand. As if he was shocked unlike usual, my brother didn’t come to the room to eat snacks.

My mom was worried that there was something wrong with my brother, but that was all.

After all, my brother didn’t come back that day.

In the meantime, the night came.

My mom fell asleep early, perhaps because she was tired from going out earlier. However, I couldn’t fall asleep easily because of the constant fluctuating mood.

At that time, I could feel my father coming into my room, perhaps to try and check on my mother.

I jumped up from my seat, hugging Sylvie, who was sleeping soundly next to my mother.

“Daddy.”

“Yes?”

“Hehe… It’s my dad.”

“Nice to meet you?”

Dad, who had come after washing, came in wearing a comfortable robe, came to bed and hugged me at once.

“Yeah! Nice to meet you!”

“I really missed you and Adele all day.”

Dad was feeling pretty good, so he put his forehead on my head. I could feel Dad’s warm temperature and scent.

I always wished everything was this good. I hope it ends like a happy fairy tale without a bad person.

“But why weren’t you sleeping?”

“Well, I can’t sleep!”

“Really?”

“Oh, you know, Dad, did a lot of things happen today?”

Dad, who looked at my sleeping mother for a while, hugged me and moved to the terrace. Then, he took a seat there and put me on his lap.

While talking about this and that today to my father, I talked about everything that happened in the garden earlier.

We had a bit of a hard time finding Lexit and wanted to scold him.

“Anyway, I was trying to catch him.”

“I don’t know why he suddenly changed.”

“Yeah, it was really weird. The strangest thing about it is… no! Him and Allen are twins. But suddenly he was tall as if there was an age difference. That guy!”

“He suddenly grew tall… without any reason?”

“Yes! That’s right. He’s just like my dad!”

I jumped out of my seat to emphasize it. My father smiled at me with his mouth open.

“…Daddy.”

“Yes?”

“Did you notice that I was overdoing it a bit?”

Oh my. I thought he wouldn’t catch me, but seeing my dad smile like that, I guess he did.

I fell into my father’s arms again in shame.

“No.”

“No? Then why did you laugh like that?”

“Because you’re lovely?”

“What?”

“You’re lovely and cute everyday. Aster, Lexit and Allen are all lovely, but Bebe, you are especially lovely. I can’t even say cute things.”

Why was that word so embarrassing?

I stuck my tongue out and turned my head around.

“It’s not cute! I’m… ha… anyway…”

“Yes, yes.”

I was in a hurry to say something else. Then I remembered my mother sleeping. Even today, my mother wasn’t acting unusually on one or two instances.

Did Dad know? I opened my mouth very slowly.

“You know, Dad…”

“Yes?”

“Adults… say good lies, right?”

“Sure.”

I wonder if she’s not telling me a good lie when her memory came back? Was that it?

“But why all of a sudden?”

“I’m just curious. You know, Dad, my mother said she still doesn’t remember, right?”

“Yes? Right? Why do you think your mother remembers?”

“No, I was wondering if you were hiding it from me. That kind of lie… seems something like that!”

“That can’t be true. If her memory is back, isn’t it strange that she didn’t say anything?”

I nodded my head at my father’s resolute words.

“Yes! Daddy is smart!”

“Huh?”

“I was wondering if… it might have come back. But after listening to my dad, I think that’s it. She can’t pretend that she doesn’t know, right? Why hide it?”

“Right?’

After listening to my father, I decided not to think about it anymore.There was no way Mom wouldn’t tell me if she remembered.

My previous mother loved me so much that if she had her memory back, she would have loved me every moment of the day. Every moment she looked at me, she was so lovely and she said she couldn’t help it.

I smiled brighter than ever when I came to the conclusion.

“Hehe, that’s right. Dad’s right.”

“More than that, Bebe, don’t you want to meet your twin brother?”

“All of a sudden?”

“Yes. It seems like there is something I need to check…”
