Duchess sure become more energetic in these years. How her hold is so hard on both of us, That we can't free ourselves easily.
While I was thinking how to free myself from the duchess without making her feel bad or awkward.
Lucas who couldn't take his Mom behavior, Push her away and free himself from her," Mom! What are you doing here? Nobody told me you would be here?."
Duchess who stops pulling them, Stares at Lucas with an irritated expression, "What's with you, Huh? I am here to welcome you, And you aren't even happy to see your mother here? Do you know how ungrateful you are?"
"Huh? What are you saying? Of course, I am happy to see you here but can you not hug us to death because you hug very tightly. How Many times' dad told you, To be careful when hugging others."
Duchess who with an irritated expression starts laughing awkwardly," My! My! I just couldn't control my strength. You see I am blessed with such a strength ha, ha, ha, It can't be helped."
As Duchess was about to move, I grabbed her hand. I don't know what came to me for suddenly grabbing duchess hand But I can be sure of one thing. It must be because of the face she made while laughing, It's a face that I know well.
Fena who was standing beside Lucas while holding the hand of duchess tightly.
It was sunset time and the light of day break was about to go from the side where we were standing but the figure of duchess which looked so upset to me, I couldn't help but grabbed her hand.
Duchess gets surprised at Fena sudden behavior of grabbing her hand, Looks at Fena straightly," What is it Fena? Do you want to say something?"
At that moment I didn't thought of what kind of face I was making, When I was facing the duchess," I think duchess is very nice and kind."
Duchess who hears her praise from Fena gets flustered," My! What are you saying? Fena is the one who is very nice and kind, But I am happy to hear that from you. At least I am not disliked by you, Otherwise what kind of face I would show to Rose."
I stepped forward and got closer to duchess leaving an inch distance," That's why you don't need to make such a face, You don't need to feel bad about your strength because duchess is very kind that's why she got such strength and I believe the Archduke, Lucas, Leon and others understands that and loves you for that."
I said what I wanted and stepped back from duchess, But suddenly I felt a weight on my back.
"You truly are Rose daughter to say such a kind thing same as her. I am once again being reminded that it doesn't matter as long as I have you guys."
After hearing duchess words I turned my face to see duchess who was hugging me from back side, Starts patting my head. Duchess had a very kind look in her eyes but at the same time a relived smile on her face.
I was surprised by looking at duchess who was still patting my head.
Lucas was looking at both of the ladies who were staring at each other and steps forward to them while grabbing both of them each hand," Let's go home! I am Hungry and I want to eat food made by your hands Mom."
Duchess starts laughing at the embarrassed Lucas and holds back Lucas hand.
I was dragged by Lucas while having no idea which way should I go for now. So I thought of talking about it," Lucas, You are taking me wrong way, Since I have to go that way."
Lucas still walked forward while ignoring my words without answering back anything.
I kept quiet after that and followed their lead, While doing that I saw the other children's of Blanchester Castle.
They were glaring at me as usual, I could tell by their way of looking. They were wondering," Why did I come back alive?", Heh! Like I care what they are complaining about with their eyes?"
***
We reached the Vermilion Estate and there is Archduke who just now arrived, Welcomed us.
" It's been five years kids, You both sure have grown up a lot in these years. Look how tall have you become Lucas you already left me behind. I sure miss how easily I could pat your head and drags you by ear. Now it will be hard since you are this tall."
Archduke who was talking to Lucas turned his face towards me and came closer to me," I see! The little lady also grew up, Hmm! But, It seems your height isn't growing that much, And I guess you need to grow in other areas too." Archduke who said such thing with a straight face while making a pose of someone seriously thinking something.
Lucas who was watching his father behavior understood where he was going to take the conversation? Jumps in between Fena and Archduke, Stops Archduke with a flushed red bean face," What? What are you doing you perverted Dad? Don't say anything else? Okay! Now leave..."
"Hmm! What are you saying Lucas? I was just checking out your taste in women's, Because I believe you wasn't used to be interested in this one's."
Lucas who was flushed out like a tomato, Starts pulling his Dad back towards him, Who was trying to get closer to Fena.
I was surprised by the Archduke words and put both of my hands around my chest," Archduke haven't you become a perverted old man in these five years, I respected you and thought of you as a polite person."
Archduke was looking at me with a serious face, Become a little cold," Hmm! I think I am always this type of person, I value such qualities in women's, After all it's about my son and there is no doubt that I like you in many ways, That would be the other case if you were to grow more-"
*Smacks*
Suddenly the Arcduke who was standing near to me got smacked hard on his head by his wife who looked very pissed at him," You are always like this! You perverted old man, Calm down! That's not yours place to talk that way. That can our Lucas do, Now come with me."
The duchess dragged the Archduke by his ear and left both of them, Leaving behind Lucas and me in front of the gate.
Lucas who was staring at me for a while started apologizing to me," I am sorry for my dad actions, He usually doesn't do these kinds of things. I don't know what came up to him to say such things."
I was a little surprised at Lucas who was apologizing so sincerely to me," No! I don't mind, It's not like Your Dad was serious, Because to me, it seemed that he was trying to distract or more like cheering me up in his own way. Not only that, but I bet he must have thought a lot on his own and came up with such a perverted idea, Ha, ha, ha."
I started to laugh hardly because it was funny how Archduke made such a serious face while saying perverted things.
Lucas who looks with surprised eyes at Fena, Who was laughing.
"I am sorry that I feel like laughing at Archduke actions, But I am totally fine with it. You know I am shameless, And I don't feel anything like embarrassing."
When I finished laughing, I saw Lucas getting closer to me while staring at me continuously. I couldn't think anything else since he keep moving closer and closer.
I started to step back seeing how he keep getting closer and didn't see what was behind me, I was about to trip but got saved by Lucas who was holding me with his one hand on my back and other holding mine right hand.
I couldn't understand what's with Lucas behavior who still keep staring at me," What happened? Why are you only staring and not saying anything at all? It's making me nervous you know, Like you might snap out right now."
"You....."
Lucas pulls Fena closer to himself, There isn't even an inch distance between them, As if nothing could come between them.
" You know, You shouldn't say things like that, You shouldn't make face like that too. You don't know but when a lady says such things like that, It makes a man wants to do something with her. You don't know how much I am holding back? But if it's you, It's okay I can wait."
Lucas who was staring at Fena moves his face closer to Fena neck.
I was wondering if Lucas was pissed at me and that's why he must be trying to scare me, I headbutted Lucas and stared at him.
Lucas got headbutted couldn't explain how despair he felt in that one moment?
"What happened? Are you not feeling well? Hmm! I headbutted you and I felt that your head isn't hot at all."
'She didn't get what I was about to do with her? I mean, Did the thought of me doing something to her never occurred to her?'
' Is she serious? She just headbutted me out of nowhere, Like seriously? Am I not a man in her eyes? '
