There's still a week for the Royal Parade and the city is a festive mood. All the streets are decorated with the colors of the Royal Household: Red and gold. There are a lot of unique events this week promoted by nobles and merchants all over the city. Like a big festival, this is by far my favorite part of the year.
I'm also happy to report that the squirrels are selling well. We can see kids holding their plush toy all over the city. Julia is promoting the sells by visiting schools and she also donated some to the orphanages. This actions made her popularity rise over the days and made Crown Prince so happy that he made generous purchases at IP stores.
All hail the all might squirrel!
Cough. I got a bit excited with all the money, sorry.
Meanwhile, the clinics' project was realized by IP in cooperation with the Crown and some smaller nobles. Since we had a lot of support we opened clinics all over the town and not just at the Parade's path. It fills me with joy when projects with random aims help in the end many people. In this case, is even more touching to me since a lot of nobles embraced the cause of providing free treatment to the citizens in need.
Although they were all good news, for me the best news this month is that Brother is coming back to spend the holidays with us! As a matter of fact, he is arriving today, so we will have a small welcome party for him. We opted to not call his friends since we would have to call the power couple of the moment and their two candles for the dinner, what it would make his return awkward. Being so, the dinner will only have our family.
It's been a long time since we shared a meal together. Just thinking about it makes me a bit nostalgic.
I quickly went to our house entrance. Just like me, Mother was fidgeting. Maybe she was the one who suffered the most of us having Brother away since this is the first time that any of us live outside.
"Ceci you are here. Your Brother is late. That brat doesn't change, if he takes more than 10 minutes to arrive I won't wait for him"
Opposite to her claims Mother didn't sound a bit impatient or had the willingness to go away.
I was just about to tease her when we heard the sound of the carriage in front of our door. Before I could invite her to come with me to the front, I saw just the colors of Mother's dress flashing by. Not to be outdone, I chased after her. Hmph, I won't let you greet him alone.
Hearing the cluck from the door opening, both of us stopped at our tracks and quickly fixed our appearance. By the time the door was opened, we had impeccable appearances once again.
"Oh my dear daughter, are you leaving to work now? Your Brother was supposed to arrive earlier but it seems you will miss him"
"Oh well, it's regrettable, but I can always see him later"
I must say that I'm always astonished on how well nobles can act. Like really, we can easily win Oscars for our little performances.
Ignoring our Oscar-awarded performance, Brother opened his arms and said deliver the words that we had been waiting.
"I'm home"
At the cue, Mother enveloped my poor Brother in such a tight hug that I could see him turning red from lack of air... what can I say to you guys... never underestimate a Mother.
"Mom you will kill him like that, let him breathe a little"
Being a little disconcerted with her hasten, Mother quickly released Brother. It was then that I could see angels starting to sing in the background and sudden light illuminate the background behind my Brother.
Dear Creator God, just... thank you. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. You in your wisdom permitted us, mere mortals, to evolve to such a beauty, you are truly the most powerful one.
Creator God LIKE+1.
I don't know the other things but Brother handsomeness just went to a whole other level. With the wild aura of the soldiers and the manners of the nobles, Brother was the clear example that sometimes opposites just go too well together, like sweet and salt or breakfast for dinner.
"Mother, you seem even prettier compared to when I went o the border and Cecile... what are you doing?"
Waking up fro my daydreaming, I was just like a little boy who was caught red-hand stealing food... I hastily checked if there was any evidence of my crime in my face.
"N-nothing. Nada. Is not like I was daydreaming or anything"
"I didn't even say anything yet... were you perhaps mesmerized by my appearance Dear Sister?"
"ANYWAY. Tell us how was your journey? Was the border too cold? Is Uncle okay?"
"Shush Cecile, don't rush your Brother like that. By the way, didn't you say that you need to go to the office, You should be leaving by now, poor Leo must be waiting for you"
HOHOHOHO. Dear Mother, you are so naive if you think you can evict me like this.
"There's no problem, yesterday I went ahead and did most of today's work. So WORRY NOT Dear Mother"
Taking my Brother's hand I tried to take him to our living room, but Mother also took his other hand and pulled in the opposite direction. Like two little kids fighting for a toy me and Mother pulled Brother from a side to another. The poor him could only look helplessly to us.
I couldn't even believe that this scene that happened many times on the past could happen again after Julia's interference... I really hope we could stay like this forever...
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
