Chapter 216 – Ordinary Family (10)
26. Ordinary Family (10)
“Dad mom.”
“Hmm, Cordia?”
I was about to leave, wondering if it would be suitable if this amount of time had passed, but Cordia opened the door to the master bedroom and came in.
She seems to have answered quite awkwardly, perhaps because she had been secretly observing her, but Cordia didn’t seem to notice. No, it would be fair to say that she was not exactly in a state to notice.
Cordia was pretending not to, but her whole body was trembling slightly. She’s an idiot, and if it wasn’t for her dad, Eugene, she wouldn’t have noticed. Although it’s amazing that her 4-year-old can hide her condition so far.
‘That must have made him nervous, right?’
‘I’m sure.’
For a moment, I could talk with Sestia through glances. She said Cordia was nervous.
She didn’t fight herself, but as her older sister, she must feel sorry for not stopping her younger siblings from fighting. Although she knew of Cordia’s disposition, she was even more certain after seeing it on CCTV.
“Cordia. Do you have anything to say to Dad?”
“… Yes.”
So let’s be natural and kind.
She came in and asked Cordia, who was hesitant, and then her daughter brought up her business. She has something to show you and something to tell you, so please come to my room.
She said she would be happy to do so.
She added that she would like other moms to come too. So she said she would.
She casually called her wives, who had each scattered to her room, and she gathered in front of Cordia’s room, Cordia said.
“Dad mom.”
“Huh?”
“… No. I will open it.”
Cordia opened the door. Then she…
“Dad mom… Sorry…”
“I will never fight again!”
“I will not be selfish…”
“Uh, uh… ?”
Ludichia, Pieta, and Vinia.
Aside from Cordia, the three daughters, who can be said to be the parties to the fight, are bowing their heads and asking their parents for an apology in a tearful tone!
No matter how wrong the daughters were, this was quite a shock to Eugene. Isn’t that what a huge mistake is?
Eugene is very momentary in her daughters’ appearances, but she looked herself when she was little. She was so frightened and bitter and embarrassed. That her daughters would apologize was what she expected, but not in this form. Why isn’t there such a thing Hesitantly, I want to apologize, but my mouth doesn’t come out well… It’s not that I don’t want to apologize, but I’m more frustrated, but I’m sorry in a voice that crawls like an ant… ‘ She imagined saying. Especially this time, the kids prepared a lot of things, for example, a letter of apology or a letter, etc., And when they mumbled a little while giving them a hug, they naturally hugged them and patted them on the back. I drew a picture telling me to try more.
While Eugene was shocked and hardened for his own reasons, his wives were different. They, like Eugene, were stunned, but they didn’t harden like that. While living together, they heard stories of his old memories and understood his way of thinking to some extent, but basically, they were people who had lived in this world that was harsh compared to the modern Earth for at least 20 years.
If you make a mistake, bow your head. If that is too severe, kneel down. In addition, something else, whether material or symbolic, is offered as an additional price.
It was so natural.
Otherwise, I would have nothing to say even if my head was blown off by resentment, stabbed in the back, or even if mice and birds went missing without knowing. Of course, the fault of the daughters was definitely not to the extent that they suffered such harsh things.
So, the daughters’ apology, although it was quite a shock to witness it, was not so much that the improbable had happened.
“Does everyone really think so?”
Kaya, his first wife, took her arms. When she took a step forward and asked, her first daughter, Cordia, put her hands together as if in prayer, she replied.
“Yes. Kaya’s mom We are all sincerely reflecting. Please look at these.”
At the place Cordia pointed out, there were clay dolls that she watched the production process with CCTV. The dolls, which are not identical, but whose characteristics are well-captured so that you can easily recognize who is who at a glance, are gathered in a friendly order. The faces of the dolls were all bright. There was also a doll with Pieta hugging Vinia, Ludicia hugging Pieta, and Cordia hugging them all.
“This too.”
While her mothers were mesmerized by the clay doll, which was far cuter than it looked on the screen and was more sophisticated than expected, Cordia slightly regained her smile and held out another one.
It was a reflection with a picture drawn on it.
In the self-reflection letter, it was written about why they fought, how they felt when they fought, what they thought, how painful it was, how awkward they were after the fight, how aware they were, how depressed they were, and that they would never fight over things like this in the future. Each daughter had a different handwriting or writing skills, but the contents were largely the same.
As soon as Eugene and her wives put down their reflections without saying a word, the daughters handed over the paper flowers they made to my mother.
Seeing her sore throat, her eyes quivering, and her chin tight…
“And…”
“Are you still there?”
“Yes yes.”
As Kaya, who had tied a lily of the valley flower folded by Pieta to her chest, asked her to control her feelings, Cordia took her brothers by the hand.
“Rudy, Etty, Vinnie.”
“Yes.”
When Cordia calls her brothers and lets go of her hand…
“Binnie, I love you.”
“Rudy, I love you, Beanie!”
“Sister…”
Side- side-
She was imitating the pose of the first clay doll. Ludikia hugs Vinia, who is still, and kisses her on the cheek, and Pieta hugs Ludikia from behind and kisses her on the cheek as well. Cordia, sneaking up to her, stretched her arms out to her sides to fit her, hugged her younger siblings tightly, and kissed her on the head.
Cute. It was so cute.
When the cute and pretty daughters acted cute as a group, the cuteness multiplied, not doubled, but multiplied.
But not only Eugene, but none of his wives let their facial muscles relax at the cuteness of their daughters.
Then, the daughters, who had exhausted everything they had prepared, began to notice their parents staring at them in silence.
Is it lacking?
Disappointment and nervousness were evident in the daughters’ eyes.
Yujin, who had been watching without saying a word until now, finally opened her mouth.
“Cordia. Ludikia. Pieta. Vinia.”
“Oh, Dad. Crime…”
“I’m sorry, Dad.”
“… Yes?”
When Cordia was dazed by Eugene’s sudden apology, Eugene approached and hugged her daughter.
Pat Pat.
Pat the back silently and let the rest of the daughters do the same in turn…
“Ugh…”
Third, the most lively and affectionate, Pieta started to cry.
“Heb.”
“Sniff.”
Then, in an instant, her emotions amplified and contagious, causing even Ludicia and Vinia to cry.
“Ooh, uh, ooh.”
Even Cordia, who was the first to be hugged by Eugene, shed tears and buried her face in her father’s arms. It was the first time Eugene saw all of her daughters crying at the same time, but she was again surprised that none of them cried as loudly as normal children.
I have never been taught to cry like this when crying, so is this also included in abnormal precocity?
Overpayment.
The meaning of the words innocence and old age had never approached me so painfully.
“Our princesses. Cry. Cry hard. Because Daddy did everything wrong.”
“Huh…”
It was only after Eugene said that once again that her daughters’ cries returned to their age a little.
**
“Did everyone cry, our crybaby princesses?”
“I don’t know…”
The fight between Ludicia and Vinia ended with a grand crying party for the daughters. Regardless of the whole story of the incident, after crying heartily, old emotions were resolved and the atmosphere was purified. However, there was a cute side effect that after crying hard, the daughters, especially Cordia, who always showed a dignified appearance, were severely shy and refused to talk.
But Cordia is someone.
He only doesn’t express it, but he’s as much a dad as Vinia.
As Eugene rubbed her cheeks and hugged her tightly, Cordia pretended not to and hugged her while rubbing her cheeks. Then, the rest of the daughters who were each held by her own mother came out and clung to Yujin like cicadas.
“Dad! Me too!”
“Me too…”
“…”
“Yes, yes. Our princesses.”
After all, this is much better than before, thought Eugene.
“Our princesses?”
“Ugh.”
Eugene’s daughters shook their heads in unison, as if they knew that their father would tell her to stop. But that wasn’t what came out of Eugene’s mouth.
“Shall we go on a picnic together?”
“Picnic… ?”
“Yes, a picnic. It’s fun for any normal family.”
“Great… !”
Wouldn’t the word picnic be more appropriate than the word family trip?
He said he was pursuing a normal and happy family life, but he had never taken his daughters anywhere other than home under the guise of protecting them because they were too young…
Starting with the picnic, wouldn’t it be okay to regain normality and manage it from now on?
My daughters are now 3 or 4 years old, and there will be many happier times ahead.
“Picnic, picnic, picnic~”
I could see innocence on the faces of the daughters as they sang along on the picnic.
