Chapter 57: The Emperor’s Daughter
I used to sleep deeply, but I could sleep like a corpse this time . Probably because I was sick . I almost woke up several times in the middle of sleep, but something helped me sleep comfortably each time so I could sleep some more .
When my body got too hot, something cold took away the heat and cooled it down quickly . It really made me sleep in comfort .
Since it was such a deep sleep, when I woke up again, it was so easy to blink my eyes . My body felt much lighter too . I opened my eyes by moving only my eyelids . Ugh, huh? Huh? It’s down . My fever went down . I didn’t have a fever anymore . I realized that it’s morning .
It’s morning already . I thought It’s only been a few hours . Anyway, I was glad my fever was down . I thought I would die .
Anyway, I was so thirsty . I want some water? Water!
I turned my head to look around for water . At that moment, I shrank back in surprise because I touched something . Oh, my god . I was surprised to find something strange, but it’s not something weird…
Why was he sleeping like this?
It was Caitel .
Why was he sleeping here like this? I was used to seeing that pose, lying on the bed in a chair . When I was working late in my previous life, I often fell asleep like that . Of course, it didn’t make sense for Caitel to work overtime and fall asleep in here . What the hell?
I wanted to lift up my body, but I wasn’t in perfect condition . Besides, being strangely tired meant I still had to sleep some more . However, even if I went back to sleep, I should at least know why he was sleeping here like this .
I twisted my body somehow, and I could find something Caitel was holding .
A white towel . My eyes opened wide .
Was it Caitel who took care of me up all night? I thought it would be Serira or Elene . It’s not easy to take care of others, and it’s harder to take care of a patient . Of course, I heard him telling Serira to leave . However, wasn’t that all a dream?
I felt a little strange . It was really strange . Something churned inside me . I didn’t know what the name of this emotion was . Why was I tearing up?
I guessed he really was my father .

I felt pity for how he was sleeping in such an uncomfortable way . I stretched out my hand without even realizing it . Caitel’s cheeks were warm . It’s also soft . What kind of man had skin as good as this? Looking closer, I didn’t even think he had pores . Although I firmly believed this was all in the power of skin care and not something engraved in his DNA . However, after a closer look, I thought it really was in his DNA . Oh, why was I crying all of a sudden?
“Papa . ”
No matter how much I tried to deny him and ignore him, we’re still a family . I really couldn’t help it anymore . Besides, this distance that used to keep us apart was slowly deteriorating, so what was I supposed to do?
It was so far from perfect .
In the past, he wouldn’t care if I was sick or not . Ha .
Somehow the small steps we took every day piled up to create this very moment . Though I was scared… I kept expecting . What would be at the end of this relationship? Would a day come when I could finally say words of affection to this man? I didn’t know the answer to anything right now… Would there be a day when he would really think I was his daughter?
I didn’t know .

I really didn’t know .
It was just so complicated . It would have been better if I had forgotten all about my past life .
“Ha…”
I breathe low and closed my eyes . Still, it was totally incomprehensible for me to be unable to take my hand off as I stroked him . He must have been very tired . He had a lot of work lately . However, he had still taken care of me all night . No other man but the Caitel did it . I felt somewhat grateful and apologetic to him at the same time . I stroked his cheek again and his red silver eyelashes trembled . Huh?
His eyelids soon rose . What was revealed was the same color as mine . Blurred vision focuses on me . As soon as our eyes met, I laughed again today, brighter than any other sunshine .
“Good morning!”
My voice was cracked . Still, I laughed, thinking that today really was a good day . Laugh and laugh . Like I was the one who had all the joys of this world .

Caitel gazed at me with sudden bafflement in his expression . Somehow, his face seemed pallid . The mask that never fell off his face fell a little bit off today . A low voice spoke to me as he laughed with me .
That was Caitel’s answer .
“…Good morning . ”
It’s another good morning, Dad .
