When Caitel asked her, Ria handed over the pebbles in her hands.
âThis!â
Caitel looked back at his daughter with a smooth pebble in his hand. Ria smiled broadly at his confused expression.
âGift for you!â
Ferdel, who was watching it to quench his envy, smiled despondently.
âI donât need anything. Having a daughter is the best.â
Even corners of Caitelâs lips rose at how cute she looked.
âIs it a bribe?â
âYes.â
In the conversation between two father and daughter, Ferdel was momentarily dumbfounded. What bribe was he talking about to a pure child like her!? That man! Both father and daughter werenât interested whether Ferdel got angry or not. Ferdel fell alone and cooled down.
âThis is all because I donât have a daughter!â
âThatâs pretty.â
With an emotionless voice, Ria opens her eyes wide.
âReally?â
âYes.â
Her grinning face made Ferdel speechless. My princess was an angel.
Still, it was refreshing to see him. When she was a little younger, he always thought Caitel might kill her soon. However, now they just looked like a perfect family. He whoâs holding her and she whoâs being held by him looked magnificent. Caitel really did become a father.
Ferdel realized this casually.
âNow I could laugh at him even if he insisted heâs not a father. The problem was that it was not something to laugh at, but something to envy. I want a daughter too! A cute and pretty daughter like that! A cute and pretty and lovely daughter like that! No, itâs good to have something envious in your life. Itâs really desirable to develop yourself and try to have it.â
In fact, Ferdel also agonized over whether heâs too perfect. After all, he has a good family, harmonious family members, an outstanding political ability, a brilliant brain, and a beautiful wife. There wasnât anything thatâs lacking.
âOf course, this is proof that God loves me too much. He loves me so much that I was tired of it. I wish I could have a child soon.â
However, if the one had a daughter, itâs a different story.
Itâs very different. Even if he tried, it would have been in a muddle if his luck didnât. Where should I put with my efforts in the first place?
The problem was with Ferdel, who wanted to be the father of the child right away. âDaughter! I want to have a daughter! Oh, shall we just adopt one?â
At that moment, Caitel twisted his lip. A charming smile caught his lips.
âItâs pretty, unlike the person who brought it.â
A pretty playful voice made Riaâs face crumpled.
âIâm not ugly!â
âI havenât said anything yet.â
Ria was impressed at how Caitel feigned his innocence.
âYou just said Iâm ugly!â
Caitel responded with no expression at her complaints.
âI didnât say that.â
âAre you a baby?â Ferdelâs face is frowning with shame. âNo matter how much fun youâre having, you canât just make fun of your daughter, itâs a shame, tsk tsk.â
However, since heâs envious of him, Ferdel silently swallowed his tears, sob sob.
âNo. Daddy you just said Iâm ugly!â
Even though Ria tried hard her best to argue, Caitelâs indifferent response remained. Caitel answered quietly.
âI said it was different from the person who brought, but I didnât say you are ugly.â
Ria shut her mouth as if she was speechless. Ferdel wanted to help, but he couldnât help her since Riaâs facial expression as she bit her lips was just too cute and pretty, so it was impossible for him to think straight.
âOh, thatâs how you raise your daughter. Damn it, Iâm so jealous!â
âNo, you said I was definitely ugly.â
Caitel smiled at her murmur.
âYes. Youâre ugly.â
The remark crumpled the princessâ face. Ferdel, who had been watching them from the side finally couldnât take it anymore.
âWho dares to say sheâs ugly?â
âAre you a child? What are you doing to a princess?â
Caitel turned his eyes on Ferdelâs break-in.
âWhy are you here when you said you were going back?â
âThe princess found me and we were chatting.â
Then, when he looked at Ria, she smiled. Caitelâs eyes sharpened.
âHow dare you doubt me?â
âDonât worry. I didnât touch her.â
âDo you know how much I wanted to touch, pet, and kiss her!? I canât praise myself enough for enduring all those impulses, but having such a treat made me feel a little sad. Maybe itâs just wasnât enough.â
Caitel sees the princess in his arms.
âDid Ferdel really not touch you?â
âNo!â
âHey, you bastard!â
âYou donât have to double-check, you prick!â
The Caitel caustic eyes returned to Fertelâs as he cried. Ria tilted her head in his arms, but at that moment, Ferfel could only see Caitelâs smile.
âIf youâre jealous, get one.â
He was poking at where it hurts the most. Ferdel renewed his determination he struggled to renew tens of thousands of times everyday.
âI will have a daughter.â
âI will have daughter! I will definitely have both sons and daughters, so Iâll bite them and lick them and love them! I will love them!!â
Caitel laughed at his terrible reply. It was a real sneer.
