Chapter 18: 10.1

“Apologize to your father, Lulu. It’s really your fault. I’m picking you up because I’m worried.”

It was at that time, I ran away from our home.

This guy was a punk, indeed. Why can he only say the right things? To be honest, I was sad that Gerald didn’t side with me.

“Lulu, if you promise to apologize to your father, I’ll give you a gift.’

I remembered the voice that comforted me affectionately. Gerald promised to go and play with me if I apologized to my dad.

Ah.

I remember it now. The reason I said mean things to my dad.

It was a very good age to play with friends. There was a time when I hung out with my friends and came in really late. It happened because I lost my way around the night market, but it was quite a sad memory for me.

“I was young.”

My eyelids trembled.

My dad . . .

“It’s my first time being a dad, too, Lulu. Will you finally know how dad feels when you become a mother?” That was what my father said, but unfortunately, I didn’t have a chance to be a mother. That was the fact that I can’t really swallow until now.

I was still just a child who couldn’t fully understand my parents’ hearts.

Still, when I came back, one good thing is that I have learned my lessons now. I will never say things that I will regret. If I do it again, I might as well just be still.

“You don’t have to be sorry while looking at your dad’s back.”

Tears flowed down as I closed my eyes.

“Dad . . .”

I thought that it would be better for me to stay and be present at all times.

“It looked like a goldfish! No! It’s a frog! They say it’s a monster! Argh!” I kicked Alexid’s butt and kicked him out.

“Don’t come to my room!”

And it’s still so early in the morning! What is this peanut older brother doing?

I knew that my face would bloat from crying till I slept. I remember back then, I tended to bloat so easily . . . Coming back in time doesn’t really mean I’m born again.

“Did you have a nightmare?” he asked.

“I guess so. I don’t remember at all.” I replied.

I sipped over the nutritional juice. It tasted bitter but delicious in its own way. I don’t understand why I used to hate it so much. The nanny put a cool spoon on my eyes. This was what I always did to reduce the dark circles that invaded my eyes and the bloated face I had.

“Oh my god . . . Lulu?”

“Mom, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.”

“. . .” My mom stared at me for a while and didn’t say anything.

Then, after a few moments, she burst into laughter. “Oh, my. Hahahaha.”

Are you sure you’re my mom? How can you laugh at your daughter like that?

“Oh my god! Mom!” I yelled, pouting.

“Who is this? Are you my daughter? Oh my god!”

This is why I’m like this! My mom has never changed at all!

“Well, Lulu?”

Gerald called me carefully. It was a tone to check if I was alright.

Today was the day of the brunch. The Herrington family launched a new business, and they were invited there, and all the children of the family’s acquaintances were invited because it was a simple brunch.

And of course, Gerald was there.

For some reason, I didn’t really know what to feel.

No matter how much I declared him as my ex-husband, is there a reason for him to act like we’re close?

“I really don’t know.”

It’s better to pretend not to know than say something that would backfire on me.

When I turned my head, Gerald quickly returned to me. “I think it’s true.”

Then he smiled even brightly.

It was a much more mature attitude than Alexid, who was beaten in the forehead while teasing me. I’m sure he’s ten years old. Why doesn’t he look like he’s a ten year old kid?

“Why do you ask when you know?”

“Because you’re cute.”

“What?”

No, my goodness.

“Wow. They’re getting married!”

“Jeje said Lulu is cute!”

Wow! All I can do is roll my eyes! My goodness!

“They’re getting married! They’re getting married!”

“Wow!”

It’s a mess.

I’m caught in a trap again!

You eight-year-old kids. Do you guys even know what marriage is?

Children of this age were in such a mess just because of this marriage thing

“The two of you should kiss . . . Kiss!”

I sighed.

How did the situation escalate from marriage to kissing?!

“No! We’re not going to get married!”

Not only my rebuttal but also my words didn’t work.

The children giggled out and gossiped around Gerald and I. It was the most annoying thing in my life,

But he didn’t move, and didn’t even speak. But when he did, it was so soft. In a way that I can’t even hear what he or other people are saying.

Gerald Logan. Stop messing with me.

This was the nature of a unicorn man that exists in fantasies. He’s considerate and nice . . .

“Don’t say things like that to me.”

But in this life, I will never be obsessed with him anymore. Is there a reason for me to make the same mistake as before?

“Why? It’s true that you’re cute.” Gerald shrugged.
