Sitting there peacefully, something suddenly popped out in front of me .
“What is this?”
It was a flower . A white rose . When did he picked this up? I didn’t like flowers that much, but since I was a woman, I still enjoyed it .
Geez, this boy knew how to rattle a girl’s heart . He’s so young, yet he already knew how to appeal to women . When I accepted the flower, his face slightly brightened .
“I’m sorry . ”
“Hmm?”
“… I’m sorry . ”
He couldn’t look at my eyes directly, and he kept squinting at me . He must be very sorry, huh? I didn’t answer him, so he kept biting his lips and tearing up . A drooping puppy’s ears would be perfect for him .
He’s kind of cute when he’s all upset like that .
“Why did you do that?”
Yeah, since I was generous I could forgive him this time . Actually, he should ask for Serira’s forgiveness, not mine . Graecito’s expression brightened up whether he understood my gesture of reconciliation . However, he shouldn’t be too excited, because I didn’t want him to be happy yet .
“Because… Grandma is sick . ”
Oh, was she still sick? I knew she wasn’t born healthy, but it made sense considering how old she was . Of course, I didn’t know what made her so sick . That’s because either Serira or Elene didn’t tell me .
However, what’s everything got to do with his grandma being sick?
“If I get close to mother, grandma might leave me . ”
My throat choked up for a moment . I meant, he really was a kid . How could he come to that conclusion? It’s ridiculous . At the same time, I envied his naivety and his purity .
“Why would your Grandma leave you?”
“Because I’m annoying . ”
Graecito spoke seriously . At the same time, I sighed because of his sullen look .
“Why are you annoying? You’re her only grandson . ”
“Do you really think so?”
“Of course . ”
His eyes glowed with a small consolation . For Graecito, his grandmother seemed like Serira to me . She’s not his mother, but she more important to her than a mom . However, I heard it was his grandmother who raised Graecito instead of Serira, who became my nanny . I felt even more strange because I knew how he felt .
“Do you think your grandma is annoying?”
“No!”
“Then your grandma wouldn’t think that you’re annoying either . ”
No wonder to me, but not to Grecito, a real child . He responded to me as if he heard it for the first time .
“Really?”
“Yes . ”
“Really? Is that true?”
“Oh, yes . Of course . ”
How many times did he intend to ask that? Graecito frowned his forehead as if he was unsure even after receiving affirmation from me again .
I just stared at him . Being young was really good . Even this idiot looks so cute . I wanted to pinch his cheek . His chubby cheeks look like it came from a real rabbit .
“I see…I didn’t know that . ”
Somehow his voice as he said those words sounded like they were drooping . Hey, man, at this age, it’s natural for him not to know this . It should be impossible to understand the behavior of adults when one was so young . Except for me .
“Mother keeps me from visiting grandma, so I thought grandma was leaving me . ”
Grecito’s eyes are filled with tears . Was he crying about this? Maybe that’s not because adults didn’t like Graecito or because they hated him, but because they didn’t want him to see her sick .
“It’s because grandma only wants you to see her when she’s healthy . ”
“I don’t mind if she’s not healthy . ”
It’s just him .
“Your Grandmother doesn’t . ”
Graecito flinched at my firm words . I put my hand on his head . Pat pat . Now, he looked like a good boy, right?
