Time told me that it’s time for Caitel to be in his office, so I guessed this would be the first time I would enter that office after a long time .
“I’ll be back . ”
When I was a toddler, I thought my room and Caitel’s office were so far away, so it surprised me when I realized that it was closer than I thought when I could walk . Well, my room was close to my dad’s bedroom and audience chamber . I heard that my palace was originally where the heir stayed . As I approached the office, the guards who guarded the door looked down at me .
“Papa, is he in there?”
“Yes, Princess . Would you like to see him?”
Yes . As I nodded, they opened the door before me . I entered the room before the servant let Caitel knew I was here .
I called this entire area as the office, but what was behind the office was exactly where I would go . The familiar scenery greeted me . I smiled with delight . Long-time no see! Now that I had come to think of it, I naturally stopped going here because I had a lot of time playing in the garden .
“Daddy!”
Caitel sat in his usual position on the couch . Caitel’s head tilted towards the direction of my voice while he was scouring the papers while wearing his glasses .
I was here now . I darted into his arms .
He dropped the papers on his table, and he held me in his arms . I smiled and quickly sat on his thigh . Daddy held me really comfortably now .
“What is it?”
Perhaps my sudden appearance surprised him . Caitel’s voice was not the same as usual . I didn’t know how it’s different, but I just knew it was the same voice he would often use .
Why? Did he not expect my visit? Well, I didn’t expect it too .
“I just wanted to see you . ”
“How unusual . ”
I replied carelessly, but Caitel seemed quite happy with my answer . The way he touched and patted me was gentler than usual . The big hand was so friendly that I shook my head without realizing it .
“I think this is the first time my dear daughter came to look for me . ”
Oh, I didn’t expect him to know that . I was a little surprised . I thought he wouldn’t care about this at all, so I thought he wouldn’t know of it . He still had a twisted smile on his smile, but I grew to like that smile of his .
“Not bad . ”
Not bad? He should be saying ‘good’ instead! This man was really not honest, wasn’t he?
“Are you three now?”
“Yes, three!”
“You’re three years old already . ”
Already? Hey, it’s only been three years now . I still had more growth to do . When had I even began growing? Without knowing what I was thinking Caitel touched my hair and then back to my ears . Now that time had passed for quite a while, my hair grew longer, and before I knew, it had already reached my waist .
“You’re more like a human now . ”
“I was human, to begin with . ”
Yes, I was human . Why did he always attribute my appearance to a monster? I was human since I was born, and I would stay like a human forever! He shouldn’t just try to judge my appearance like that!
“Really?”
Caitel laughed as if he couldn’t hear the silence of my aura .
