So much has been going on. The wizard ordered by my father is a spy, probably an underling from the same man. Father wasted some of his wealth to hire detectives and his guards to investigate this horrible incident. He killed the magician and put his head in front of the mansion's gate as a warning for everyone who stepped in the mansion.
My brothers blame themselves again because they failed to protect me once more. Especially brother Edgar. He's the one that's always guarding around my room. But not even Christopher could detect it, so it's not his fault!
It's none of my brothers' fault. Not fathers nor mothers.
I wish I could tell them I wanted to comfort them.
My mother has fallen ill from worrying too much. The stress is overwhelming her. And Rosemary mentioned something with another maid regarding this incident.
I've been asleep for two whole weeks.
I learned that information a week ago. And now I'm five months old.
My room has been upgraded. I'm not staying in the old room. It's far away from that because the sleeping powder Is still around in the air. It's problematic
to get rid of it. My new room is on the third floor where Raphael's, Juno's, Christopher's, and Sylvester's room was at. That's why all of them visited me more often than before. The room is a lot bigger than the old one. There's a bed near my crib that's probably going to be where I'm going to sleep when I'm older. The windows got railings on it, there are guards outside my room, and Juno is probably inside this very room without me knowing it.
The security just got more intense. Rosemary couldn't even enter without a proper checkup.
But other than that, I'm happy that I could get to meet my brothers often. I'm even delighted when the twins visited.
They're all affected because of the incident. That's why they became more clingy than before.
Especially the twins.
"Don't sleep," Sehan poked my cheek.
They're able to reach me more easily since my new crib is shorter. It became effortless to reach me. The others can reach as well. But I don't mind; the twins are entertaining than most of my brothers.
"Don't sleep," Leorys leaned in and kissed my chubby cheeks.
"Ba!" I nodded.
The two of them are still traumatized because they heard I haven't wake up for two weeks. Now they kept checking up on me and wake me up every time I'm trying to nap. I know they're still paranoid, but again, a baby needs his nap!
"Are you guys bothering Ezra again?"
It's Christopher and Sylvester!
My brothers are supposed to train and study, but they're good at sneaking out to check up on me. I giggled happily and wiggled my legs.
"Aga!"
"Baby~" Christopher's eyes twinkled.
"You're supposed to study!" Sehan and Leorys exclaimed.
"And you guys supposed to do your sword training," Christopher replied, smiling while roughly ruffling the twins' hair.
"Argh!" The two of them groaned and tried to get off of Christopher's hands.
Sylvester peeked at my way.
"... Hello,"
"Ago," I replied. Sylvester blushed at my response.
"... That means hello," Sylvester mumbled. He stared more intently. "... You're a smart baby,"
"Kya!" I smiled brightly at his compliment.
Sure am!
I'm twenty years old; I understand what you guys are saying.
"So everyone is here,"
Oh, another person?
It's Raphael and Edgar walked in. Edgar grinned at me.
"Lil buddy!"
"Aga!"
Woah, everyone is here! Well, except for Juno...
Nope, there he is. I see him in the corner of the room. He walked toward me.
"What's this? everyone is here?" Christopher looked happy. "Raphael, what about your training? and Juno?"
"..." Raphael and Juno stayed quiet; they glanced at each other sheepishly. Christopher giggled at their reaction.
"I can't stop thinking about Lil Buddy, that's why I'm here," Edgar butted in as he tickled my cheek with his index finger. I giggled.
Raphael cleared his throat. "... I have some free time. So I was thinking to take a quick look, then go back,"
"..." Juno nodded.
Just admit that you two were worried about me! Be more straightforward like Edgar!. I only stared at Raphael disappointedly while shaking my head.
"We should go back before mother caught us," Christopher said.
"But, I wanted to play with Ezzy!" Sehan yelled.
"Yeah!" Leorys added.
"Shush!" Christopher shushed the twins. "What if father heard us!"
"The real question is, what will ๐ do if I heard all of you,"
The twins gasped in surprise. My brothers turned their heads to the door, seeing father is standing there with his arms crossed under his chest. The aura around him is dark and menacing.
My brothers' faces turned dark, and I could only smile innocently.
I guess I wouldn't be able to meet my brothers in a while.
