Chapter 131.1
Chapter 131.1
“Yeah! Wouldn’t it be okay since Sylvie will be there?”
“No, but… you’re going…”
“Why? I can’t go there?”
“It’s not like that. The Grand Duke allowed you to go anywhere. It doesn’t matter if you go…”
I smiled brighter than ever, knowing what she was worried about.
“It’s okay. We’re family now.”
“You’re family, but…”
Cecilia, who was uncomfortable with the word ‘family’, shook her head from side to side.
“I’m so worried that you might get hurt when you’re gone.”
“I won’t get hurt, so you don’t have to worry. Let’s go!:
“If that’s what My Lady says… I understand.”
I could feel Cecilia’s expression stiffening since she had been supporting me to leave and do everything I wanted to do, but I wasn’t the one to look that way.
I had to do what I meant, and I will do what I want in the future.
‘I don’t know what’s going to happen now.’
It was too quiet now, like before the storm. This was the perfect time to do things you haven’t done before.
“Yes, let’s go!”
Since I made up my mind, moving was not hard. I moved after receiving the basket from Cecilia.
However, there were many cases where things didn’t work out the way I wanted it to, just like this moment.
As I moved my feet at the thought of going to Harris, I ran into my dad.
“Where are you going, Bebe? You’re not with your mom?”
Dad, who looked a little tired as if he had come out after work, waved his hand happily as soon as he saw me.
“Yes!”
“Were you on your way?”
“I was just hanging out. Are you going to see Mom?”
“Yes, I came to see Bebe and your mom before starting work…”
I laughed as if it was nothing because I felt like he would ask questions if he knew I was going to Harris.
“Ugh, then go see Mom! I’m a little busy.”
“You said you were just hanging out. Are you busy?”
“Yes!”
Fearing that I would be caught from talking too much, I gave my dad short answers. Dad opened his eyes slightly. Perhaps I was too suspicious.
“Suspicious.”
“Suspicious.”
“Bebe always picked flowers for your mom, but now she’s not going to see her mother. How weird.”
I see. I’ve never given flowers to anyone other than my mom. It was only after I heard my dad’s words that I smiled awkwardly, took out a flower and held it out to my dad.
“Today, Dad is bringing flowers to Mom.”
“What?”
“I’m sure she’ll like this kind of gift, so come on.”
Dad, who tilted his head as if he didn’t understand me, smiled belatedly and accepted a red rose.
“Thank you.”
“If you’re thankful, be nice to Mom.”
He laughed so brightly that he couldn’t see. Only then did my dad laugh after me.
“Sure. So where will Bebe go now?”
“There’s no specific place. I’ll go around and if I think of someone, I’ll go see them.”
I didn’t say I was going to see Harris or anything. If you cover it up roughly, you’ll be able to come up with an excuse if you get caught later.
“I see.”
I was busy looking at my dad to see if I had been caught.
“Then Bebe.”
“Huh?”
I never intended to go see Harris. Those words almost jumped out of my mouth.
“Do you want to go see your brother?”
“Huh? Brother?’
“Yes, you haven’t seen him properly since that day.”
“My… twin brother?’
Only then did I figure out who Dad was talking about, and I opened my mouth very slowly.
“Yes, Vasilio. I think he’s in a better condition than when I first saw him… but it’s true that you should see him later.”
I guess I shouldn’t procrastinate too much. Such words came to me through my dad’s eyes.
“A-All of a sudden…?”
“Why? Don’t like it?”
“No, I want to see him… I want to see him too, but it was so sudden.”
“There’s nothing sudden. You were just going to see him one day. Bebe, he probably misses you.”
He was right, so I pouted.
“If you want to see him, it’s best to see him right away. If you keep procrastinating, you might end up missing the timing, just like Daddy.”
“What?”
“So let’s go, while you can afford to meet him.”
I couldn’t bear to tell my father, who seemed quite serious, that I would come later. On top of that, I nodded my head because I wanted to see my brother.
“Yes! I’ll be there.”
“Okay. Theo, take Bebe there.”
“All right.”
“By the way, Bebe, are you sure you’re not going to see Mom and Dad?”
Dad twitched his lips, as if he were regretting something.
“Yes! Dad is having a good time with Mom, so I’ll have a good time with my brother.”
Only then did Dad nod. He brushed the rose I gave him with his hand.
