Chapter 108

“My Daddy?!”

Rere scurried from the room after gulping down the meals in a rush. I additionally adopted Rere in nice haste.

“Look ahead to me, Rere.”

“Hurry up, Large Bunny! Rere is de facto nervous proper now…my coronary heart beats actually quick!”

Rere had stopped working at my name and continued bouncing round confusedly when she couldn’t overcome her anxiousness. So I clasped her hand.

“It’s alright. Don’t fear. Daddy is gonna be high-quality!”

“I do know proper? I’m glad that Large Bunny stated that.”

Rere put numerous energy into her grip, unable to cover her anxiousness.

“However Daddy will rapidly get up if Rere involves see him.”

“Actually? Could, how is Daddy?”

“He handed out and was unable to stand up. He handed out this morning. I didn’t inform you the entire story as a result of… he instructed us to not say something in case it occurred once more…” Could’s phrases trailed off, and she or he bowed her head earlier than us.

“It is best to have stated one thing earlier.”

“T-That’s as a result of…he forbade me from telling anybody as a result of he didn’t wish to fear his household…”

Could slurred the top of her sentence as she sped up her tempo, and we adopted her to the Duke’s room.

I assumed it wasn’t an enormous deal as a result of he was sick the day earlier than, however Could’s pale face made us anxious.

‘He was okay when he got here to our room this morning.’

I couldn’t imagine he’d fainted after trying high-quality only a few hours earlier than. I had an uneasy feeling behind my thoughts. Luca wasn’t even accessible, and I used to be anxious that issues would solely worsen. So I tightened my grip on Rere’s hand.

Then we arrived in entrance of the Duke’s room.

“Daddy!”

Rere burst into the room with out hesitation. As anticipated, the physician was already within the room treating him.

“How is my Daddy?”

“As of now…there’s no specific symptom.”

“…Then why can’t he stand up?”

“W-Properly, sure. I’m doing every little thing I can to seek out out.”

“When did you begin treating him?”

Rere clung to the physician, barraging him with questions.

“I-I believe it’s been an hour?”

“However why don’t you recognize but?”

“Th-That’s…have to be due to my lack of information.”

“You’re a quack, completely a quack.”

“T-That may’t be. I’m not a quack.”

Rere climbed onto the Duke’s mattress and pulled up his eyelids.

“Why don’t you stand up whenever you don’t actually have a fever? Are you sleepy, Daddy? Why are you sleeping so silently? I heard you bought higher yesterday. You didn’t even come to see me.”

Not like earlier than, Rere stroked the Duke’s cheek whereas talking in a subdued tone.

“Silly, silly Daddy…Rise up. Why received’t you stand up?!”

Rere, who not often cried, burst out crying.

“Is it as a result of I at all times say imply issues to you? Is that this why you received’t open your eyes? Is it since you hate me? I received’t say imply issues anymore, so please open your eyes, Daddy. I heard you bought higher yesterday…Why didn’t you come to see me? Why?!”

“Rere…”

Rere wiped away the tears she may now not maintain again. Watching her like that, I went to her and hugged her.

“Rere…”

“I miss you, Daddy. I promise to not be impolite or name you annoying, so please open your eyes. I want you’d simply say you’re high-quality.”

Come to think about it, Rere hadn’t spoken to the Duke straight since he fainted. Even yesterday, Rere was sleeping when he got here, so I understood her frustration.

“Your Daddy goes to get up quickly.”

“However..However he didn’t get up. Mother..Mother…what if…what if one thing unhealthy occurs to Daddy? What if he can’t open his eyes…”

“No method, Rere. Rere is at all times sick, however your eyes are open proper now. I’m positive he’ll get up as nicely.”

“I do know, however…”

Rere’s cheeks had turned purple as she cried together with her head raised in my arms.

“Rere.”

“Hmm..”

“Do you might have a fever? Are you sick now?”

“…A bit of…But it surely doesn’t harm as a lot as my Daddy.”

“No. Lie down first.”

I rapidly grabbed the kid. The physician pulled again the blanket, as if anticipating the state of affairs.

I positioned Rere on the mattress. Rere’s physique grew hotter in that brief time frame. After I hugged her, I may really feel the warmth.

“Are you okay, Rere? Hm?”

“Uh…my eyes are a bit of blurry, however I’m okay. However will my Daddy be okay?”

“Simply take into consideration your self, Rere.”

“Enable me to look at her.”

“I hate quack physician…I hate him…I would like Daddy to get higher. I wish to see my Daddy.” The kid grumbled as she clasped the Duke’s hand.

In the meantime, the physician rapidly handled Rere.

“You appear to have a fever once more. I’ll offer you some drugs.”

“If I take drugs, received’t I go to sleep once more? Rere misses Daddy.”

“Rere, don’t fear and take your drugs. I’ll wake you when your daddy regains consciousness.”

“Actually? Are you actually going to wake me up?”

Rere stared at me with tears welled in her eyes.

“Don’t fear. I’ll wake you up for positive.”

“Uhm..okay. Give me the medication. I’ll take it.”

“Our Rere is an effective lady.”

“When Daddy wakes up later, he’ll be anxious if he sees Rere is sick. So Rere should get better rapidly after taking the medication.”

The kid scrunched up her eyes in an enormous smile as she snatched the medication from the physician and swallowed it directly. And shortly, Rere fell right into a deep sleep.

“Does the medication comprise a sleeping potion?”

“Sure, it does. There’s nothing higher than having a superb relaxation.”

With a bitter face, the physician flicked his eyes between Rere and the Duke.

“I could be a quack because the younger miss stated.”

“Why’re you saying that?”

“I’ve been taking care of the younger miss for a very long time, however I’ve a sense she’s solely gotten worse.”

“That’s solely pure. You don’t know what kind of illness she has. Reasonably, it’d be unusual in the event you may treatment her with out realizing her precise illness.”

The physician regarded considerably unhappy once I stated that.

“I actually need her to get wholesome. As a health care provider, I used to be initially intrigued by the illness, however now all I would like is for the younger girl to not undergo.”

“I’m positive she’ll get wholesome. We’re going to make it true.”

I wished to pour out every little thing I knew, nevertheless it wasn’t the fitting time but.

‘It’s no use responsible himself… Rere is clearly sick due to her fluctuating feelings.’

I used to be much more sure due to this incident. But it surely wasn’t a standard state of affairs regardless of how a lot I attempted to register.

It was unattainable {that a} youngster, who was initially high-quality, may have a fever that led to convulsions in a matter of seconds simply due to her fluctuating feelings.

“Thanks, Madam.”

“So please relaxation assured. I’ll go to the temple library typically to analysis her illness.”

“I’ll do my finest, too.”

The physician’s face instantly brightened, as if he discovered my phrases encouraging. Maybe due to this, he handled Rere and the Duke with a lot enthusiasm, and rose from his seat half-hour later.

“I don’t know why His Grace couldn’t regain his consciousness…however the younger girl will likely be alright.”

“Thanks.”

“Then, I’ll take my go away.”

When he lastly left the room with a small salute, solely the sound of Rere and the Duke’s respiratory stuffed the silent room.

As I sat nonetheless, all kinds of ideas raced via my thoughts.

“Is that basically the reason for your sickness, Rere? However every little thing simply matches so completely that my assumption can’t be unsuitable.”

The way in which Rere solely stated imply issues and refused to get together with others could be her coping mechanism. Rere may not be totally understood, however she realized such a response was occurring in her physique and tried to suppress her feelings as a lot as doable. Having grown up in such a twisted household, I got here to know the place Rere’s character stemmed up from.

“So…What ought to I do?”

I wished to run to the library immediately and discover out if such a illness exists.

What sort of nonsense is that this?

I hunched my again and buried my head between my legs.

“I’d somewhat it was a special illness…”

I assumed it to be a lot better if that was the case, however I used to be actually pushed to despair on this one.

“Is it a psychological illness, or…”

The darkness flooded in. Now I doubted if an answer actually existed.

I pretended to be calm in entrance of the physician, assuring him that we may save Rere. However in actuality, I used to be not sure.

Reasonably, I assumed that Rere could be higher off dwelling as a villain as depicted within the novel.

If that’s what it can take for her to cease being swayed by her feelings.

“I’ve numerous issues I wish to educate you. I would like you to see the world via the eyes of colourful feelings… Rere, my child.”

The Duke had been mendacity behind Rere and immediately sat up as I used to be lamenting sadly whereas stroking her messy hair. As quickly as he awakened, he made eye contact with me.

“Leona.”

I froze for a second listening to the voice that was completely different from the Duke’s.

“Leona…”

Their voices had been the evident distinction between the 2 equivalent folks, Luca and the Duke.

And in contrast to the Duke who not often known as me by title, Luca at all times known as me Leona.

“Huh…”

“Leona.”

“Why are you calling my title immediately?”

“As a result of that’s how I at all times known as you.”

There was one other factor that separated the 2.

The Duke didn’t use honorifics, whereas Luca spoke formally to me.

Identical to now.

“….”

“Aren’t you going to reply me?”

“Don’t inform me….are you Luca?”

At that second, I caught his gaze.

“That is me, Leona.”
