After seeing how Elisa was so lonely deep down, and how heartbroken she looked like after knowing we were already going back ho and then most likely spending half the week away, I ended inviting her out of the goodness of my heart, often the sa way I do it with Mark.
I sotis simply feel like talking my emotions and my mind out without thinking it twice, and at the end, I end up inviting people to my house, or even to my parents' house without even considering everything well…
"How about you co with us? Elena already invited Anna anyways." I said.
Elisa was suddenly shocked. We had actually not invited her, but I felt like returning the favor now that she made enjoy yesterday so much. It might had been a single day, but it was perhaps the best day I've had in years.
"Ah! R-Really? Can I, auntie?!" Elisa asked happily if she were a puppy she would be waving her tail right now.
"Of course! Why not? My family is very humble though, so I hope you can lower your standards a bit for us…" I said.
"S-Sure, no problem! I'll bring my limousine and a lot of stuff too to gift them!" Elisa said.
"Eh?! You don't have to go that far though…" I said in surprise.
"It is nothing, really! I'll bring all the delicious teas you liked and everything else… Everyone! Quickly prepare everything! We are bringing a lot of food as well! Ready a truck if necessary!" Elisa said, her servants imdiately began to work to her whims.
Well, I guess my parents are going to get even more surprised now, as if bringing Mark wasn't enough… However, seeing Elisa happy right now really comforted my heart. I kind of want to make her happy as well.
At the end, we decided to go back ho through the limousine that Elisa had, and she decided to stay the rest of the day at our house. I guess we were not freeing ourselves from her any ti soon.
While moving there, she fell asleep while resting her head in my shoulders, and Anna was also sleeping in the way back, my daughter remained awake, as she looked at Elisa sleeping.
"She really grew attached to you now, huh?" She said while pouting a bit.
"Oh? Fufu…" I giggled. "Is my daughter jealous she might get replaced? Hehe…"
"Eh?! T-That's not it…" Elena said while pouting even more. "I know you wouldn't replace ."
"Hehe, of course not! You're my most precious treasure." I said, kissing her cheek.
"Geez… Always saying such cringy stuff…" Elena said.
"Cringy? Is the love of a mother cringy?!" I asked, heartbroken.
"Ah… N-No! Okay, I was joking…" Elena sighed.
"Ah… you better be!" I said. "Don't call your mother cringy, that really hurt! I also grew up when those terms were used, so I am not that old."
"Okay, okay…" My daughter said, resting her head in my other shoulder.
I gently caressed her head.
"Did you enjoy the day yesterday?" I wondered.
"Hm, it was fun… I wish we were rich. Elisa must have it so easy in life…" Sighed Elena.
"I wouldn't really say that…" I sighed.
"Eh? Why not?" Wondered Elena.
"I guess you don't really realize it but she really has gone through a lot. The lack of her parents and all… I rember the butler said she had been living by herself since she was eight years of age." I said.
"Oh…"
"Even when your father passed out, I was always there for you, and when I was working, my mother and my father would co to take care of you. I always made sure you were never alone, and that you would grow up with people you loved." I said. "But this girl… she had her servants, but even then, there's a big wall between her and them due to their positions and all. She can't grow closer to them as if they were her parents due to all of such walls, therefore, even with all of them, she still felt desolate."
"Ah… I guess you really got the entire story, huh?" My daughter said. "You're amazing at discerning people…"
"Fufu, of course! That's one skill necessary for any mother! I must be able to see through people so I can easily tell if they're good to be ddling with my daughter." I said while puffing my chest a bit.
"Heh…" My daughter giggled a bit.
"Elena… Be good friends with her, okay? I want you to… comfort her sotis. She might be flashy and all, but she's… desperate to have soone with her. She had been alone so long that she cling to super-fast in a single day…" I said.
"Hmm… I get it." She said. "At firs Elisa approached to with weird motives, but at the end, I also discovered she's a good friend. I… might not have the best personality nor anything of the sort but I'll try it… Thanks to her and Anna is that… I am becoming better at talking and… everything else." My daughter said while blushing a bit in embarrassnt.
"I can tell! They had been good influence. Friends are a wonderful thing, we have to treasure them like family." I said. "Though… sotis friends also might beco sothing more…" I implied.
"Hm? Wh-What are you implying?" My daughter wondered, as I narrowed my eyes.
"Nooothing. Nothing at all." I said while smirking a bit. "But if… sothing happens, you better tell your mother, okay?"
"I-I don't know what you're talking about… You're getting cringy already…" Elena said, quickly trying to evade the topic.
"Oh! Look, we are here…" I said, the limousine was super-fast this ti around, perhaps because it was still quite early in the morning. We reached our ho right away, and the cute Blackie was sitting in front of the door with his water and food plate empty.
"ow!"
"Ah, Blackie! Did you protect the garden? You're such a good kitten…" I said, scratching his little head, he began purring right away.
