Carla strolled inside the secret passageway with her butterflies. It was already afternoon when she got the time to be alone.
Leila and Claude went to the company to work while Annalisa was supposed to 'babysit' Carla.
However, Carla said she would be taking a nap in her room and Annalisa read her a book to help her sleep.
Carla didn't like to hear this witch's voice, thus, she pretended to sleep in halfway with her mouth open.
Annalisa bought it and took the voice connector that Leila always brings. Leila let her borrowed it as she didn't need it in the company.
After all, even if she knows what's happening with Carla, she's far away and couldn't help immediately when something comes up.
After Annalisa walked out, Lucy put a small barrier around the voice connector at the room and Carla opened the secret door.
Lulu stayed at Carla's room to be a lookout.
Once they step on the passageway, the butterflies inside the space went out and chatted with her while they were strolling.
As it feels boring to just walk, and since they came out of the space to have fun at least, they gossip about what's happening around.
"Ne~ Ne~ Master~ Wanna know what's happening in your cousin's house?" Charlotte tugged Carla's blue skirt.
"Oh? Sure! Tell me anything!" Carla didn't look at her and continued to walk well. She is still a two-year-old kid, she needs to be careful.
"Oh! I heard about it! Do you mean about Rosella got face slapped by the kids?" Lulu, who was still in the room, joined the conversation using mind communication.
Carla was dumbfounded, "Face slap?"
"Not literally, with words, Master! She was teaching the kids something but got the spelling and pronunciation wrong!" Charlotte explained with a mischievous smile on her tiny face.
"Oh, was that the 'rendezvous' word? Sherry already taught them those hard words right? And their mother tried to use it in a sentence..." Lucy joined them while Riri lazily laid down on Carla's head.
"Yes! The grammar was good, but she failed to teach the kids the spelling and the pronunciation! Instead, Ike and Irene slammed it right! It was epic!" Charlotte continued to laugh while she flapped her wings hard and shiny.
"Pft, I can tell! Rosella said 'rendevo'! Does she think she is French? And she spelled it as r-e-n-d-e-s-v-o-u-s! Haha! Ike and Irene corrected her and said 'rangdavow' or something! The kids said it should be spelled as 'rendezvous' too!" Ivy also joined them when she heard the topic.
Even though they were far away from each other, once Lulu opened her channeling magic, her unique ability, everyone can hear each other like they were in some kind of group call.
That is why Lulu is best when it comes to spying. She can immediately report to Carla if things need urgency. And she always opens her channel of communication magic every time she part ways with Carla.
Carla didn't know this yet as she thought this is normal magic to them. Lucy said before that whenever they are, they can contact her.
However, Lucy didn't tell her in detail that they can only communicate with Carla privately. Doing group communication is from Lulu's ability.
Well, they totally forgot it especially Lulu as nobody asked and everything seemed normal.
Sherry pops up instantly and showed them Rosella's shocked face image through their mind and everyone laughed.
"Ah! I also heard that Flora seemed to find her unique ability!" Lucy changed the topic as she remembered something when she was laughing.
"Oh? I didn't know that! What is it?" Charlotte's eyes widened from excitement.
"Cooking!" Lucy said.
"Baking!" Flora said at the same time as Lucy.
"Eh?" Lucy and Flora asked at the same time.
Everyone laughed at them.
"It's both then! Granny Esme loves to cook, especially baking! When I saw that, my seal was unlocked! I sometimes shared some exotic recipes through her dreams and she loved it!" Flora explained with an enthusiastic voice.
Everyone found it cute, even hearing the 'exotic' one.
"Master, when I got the chance, I'll bake you something and deliver it to you!" Flora suggested with expectations.
Carla nodded and accepted that promise.
"Grr!" Suddenly, Jade bursts from anger but only in her mind. She is with Leila and they were at the company, she can't make any ruckus and must stay hidden on Leila's body.
"What happened?" Carla was worried and asked instantly.
"Master, your father is really annoying! Another workload was brought to your mother and I could feel Ms. Leila's stress." Jade complained.
"Thankfully, I am with her and healed her, or else, she might have fatigue. It would give her a hard headache. Poor Mrs. Leila." She continued.
"Tsk, what an asshole!" Charlotte gritted her small teeth.
"What a jerk!" Almost everyone exclaimed.
Carla on the other hand just looked displeased but sighed in the end. She knew how selfish and a jerk her father is.
Before, Carla still believed in her father that he must have a reason and she listened to him. However, when she grew up, she realized those were just bullshit.
Her father is really good at covering his shitty desires with good samaritan excuses. He can make disgusting things sound good!
This is why Carla hated her father, if it wasn't for his father's selfishness and being a fool, Annalisa can't break their family. If only her father was firm with principles, everything should be fine no matter how much Annalisa tried to break them.
But reality sucks. Her father is a selfish moron and killed his own family. Well, Carla knew she was one of the reasons too if she wasn't as dumb just like his father.
Maybe this was also the deep reason why she hated him because that attitude was just like her in the past. But, the only difference was, her selfish desire was longing for a family love while Claude was longing for his junior between his legs to take pleasure.
The butterflies still chatted and bicker with each other until they reached Carla's destination.
She opened the door and looked for a hole to peek at.
