Chapter 54: commemorating the release of the book: The Sparking Two, Conclusion?

The Reincarnated Assassin is a Geni...

The long-awaited winter vacation finally arrived, and I returned to my parents’ house to reunite with my beloved younger brother.

“Sam…!”

“Onee-sama, welcome back!”

As soon as I entered the entranceway, Sam came running towards me with a beaming smile. I hugged his small body and rubbed my cheek against his.

“Hehehe! Onee-sama, that tickles!”

“Sam, I missed you!”

My little brother is still an angel, running up to me like that. He’s just so cute!

“Welcome back, Letty.”

“Welcome home, Letty.”

Otoo-sama and Okaa-sama welcomed me with smiles, and I greeted them with a smile too. I have to be a good daughter this winter since they were so worried about Yserra-sama’s incident.

“Otoo-sama, Okaa-sama, I brought souvenirs.”

When I handed over the paper bag I was holding, the two of them widened their eyes and exclaimed in admiration.

“Wow, Letty brought souvenirs?!”

“Oh my, when did you become such a thoughtful person?”

Hmm, it seems like I’m still seen as an unthoughtful girl with this reaction…!

“I bought this when I went to the beach with Camilo. Please open it.”

I prepared a glass pen for my father and a glass bell for my mother. They both have beautiful craftsmanship with a blue gradient, and I’m sure they will both like them.

I watched nervously as my parents opened the wrapping. When they took out the items, they both showed happy smiles that were even brighter than usual.

“This is so lovely! Thank you, Letty!”

“This is really beautiful. I’ll use it for work right away. Thank you.”

I let out a sigh of relief. I may have never seen my parents this happy before.

I was so focused on the present moment that I couldn’t find a way to repay their kindness, but from now on, I hope to spend more time with my parents.

“And this is for Sam.”

Of course, I also bought a souvenir for Sam. Sam opened the paper bag with excitement and had a shining smile on their face.

“Wow, it’s a train whistle! So cool!”

I gave Sam a wooden model train that had wheels that actually moved.

“Do you like it?”

“Yeah, I’m so happy! Thank you, Onee-sama!”

Oh, he’s jumping up and down so happily, he’s really cute. I’m glad he likes it.

I knelt down and looked into Sam’s rose-colored eyes to make eye contact with him.

“Hey Sam, actually Camilo also bought you a souvenir. He said he wants to come give it to you tomorrow. Is it okay if you meet him?”

At that moment, I felt like Sam, who had been expressing his joy with his whole body, suddenly stopped in his tracks.

I felt uneasy, but it was such a short moment that I judged it to be a mistake. Sam quickly put on a happy smile and nodded vigorously.

“A souvenir from Camilo-sama? I’m so excited!”

“Fufu, yeah. It’ll be fun, won’t it?”

I don’t even know what he bought, but I’m grateful and sorry for the trouble he went through to get it. Sam seems happy, though, so it’s all good.

The next day, Camilo arrived first thing in the afternoon.

As I led him to the guest room, Sam also appeared and ran to sit next to Camilo.

“Welcome, Camilo-sama!”

“It’s been a while, Sam! Have you been doing well?”

Oh my, he’s become so attached. He used to be shy at first, but now they’ve become quite close.

I nodded in a good mood and sat down on the sofa facing the two.

Looking at them like this, Camilo and Sam look like real brothers, both handsome. It’s a heartwarming sight.

“Camilo-sama, you went to the beach with Onee-sama, didn’t you? I want to go too, next time.”

(Serves you right, now Onee-sama can’t sit next to you. I’ll interfere with you thoroughly today.)

“Sam, you like the sea too, huh? I’m sure you’ll love it when you see it for real.”

(I really don’t want him to come. Is he planning to get in the way today too?!)

Fufu, they’re such good friends. I might be a little jealous.

…Oh? I wonder who I’m jealous of. I’m not even sure myself.

“I brought a souvenir for Sam today. I hope he likes it.”

While I was caught up in my own emotions, Camilo took out the souvenir in front of me. Sam showed an angelic smile and received the paper bag.

“Wow! Thank you, Camilo-sama!”

(Souvenir, huh? Is he trying to score points with Onee-sama?)

Sam eagerly took out the contents, but the expression he made when he faced the souvenir was something I had never seen before, even myself.

A face full of childlike curiosity. It’s like the face I made when I found an interesting book.

“This is a set of sea fossils!”

Sam’s excited voice echoed, and I leaned in to take a closer look at what my little brother was holding.

Ah, yes! It’s that thing you always want as a child, the one you see in souvenir shops at museums!

“That’s wonderful! Sam, I’m glad you like it!”

“There’s a nearby archaeological site in the sea over there. A lot of these things are excavated, so they sell them in the city too.”

Ignoring Camilo’s somewhat smug expression, Sam’s rose-colored eyes sparkle as he keeps his gaze fixed on the neatly arranged fossils.

I’ve never seen Sam with such sparkling eyes before.

Yeah, maybe I was jealous of Camilo after all. He understands children well, and he was able to quickly win over the children at the orphanage!

“The fossils are so cool! They spin around and it’s amazing!”

Sam is completely absorbed in looking at the fossils, seemingly oblivious to the surrounding noise. After observing them for a while, she looks up and smiles at Camilo again.

“Thank you, Camilo-sama! I’m really happy!”

“Well, I’m glad. I didn’t expect you to be this thrilled.”

Camilo’s smile in response was refreshing as ever, but he seemed to mutter something quietly.

“…Looks like my plan to win him over is successful.”

What did he say? I couldn’t hear it because he spoke too softly.

“Camilo, what’s wrong?”

“Oh, I just said I’m happy.”

Beside me, Camilo began to chat casually and even gave me a smile, while Sam was completely captivated by the fossil.

It’s good that you received a lovely souvenir, Sam. Who knows, maybe this will spark an interest in archaeology or biology, and you’ll become a bookworm…who knows.
