Teresa won't starve

A thought suddenly popped up in the little girl's mind: who is she?

"Have you seen hallucinations again?"

"Ah? Hmm!"

After hearing Karen's words, the little girl looked away.

In fact, right from birth, little girls are able to see something special.

It was nothing at first, but the little girl told Karen about it in a conversation.This made Karen very worried about whether she was ill, so she went to Otto to give her a full body check.

And the result of the inspection is——

The eyesight of the little girl is not equal in both eyes.

It can even be said that they are not close, but there is a big gap. (This is called heterochromia)

This caused the little girl to see blurry things with her left eye and overlap with clear things with her right eye, thus seeing some distorted phenomena that were suspected to be hallucinations.

And because the little girl's condition is caused by genes, it is a congenital vision defect, and there is no way to rely on medical drugs and other means to improve it.

The only way is to wear a visual synchronizer, that is, the previous blindfold, to temporarily make both eyes normal.

But this thing is the same as myopia glasses. Wearing them for a long time is not good for your eyes.So in normal times, it is better not to wear it as much as possible.

Fortunately, they lived in a place out of the reach of Houkai, so they didn't have to think about things like fighting.

Kallen grabbed the little girl's cheek with her hands until the little girl pulled her hand away.

Only then grabbed the little girl's hand and walked back:

"Let's go. Dad should have cooked dinner, but don't make him wait too long."

"Ah."

"By the way, do you have any hope to eat? Remember to tell Dad in advance next time!"

"If you do Stargazing School, Karen will be responsible for eliminating the fish heads."

"Uh...that was actually an accident..."

Karen would not say that she just followed the tradition of her hometown and wanted her daughter to experience the 'happiness' of that era.

By the way -

Because the family is happy and harmonious, Archbishop Otto no longer needs to do those messy researches.With nothing to do, he simply recommended himself to be the family's back-up, and successfully changed his job to become a cook.

Or call it a home cook?

1496 "Theresa's Monopoly"

After returning home.

No, to be precise, the entire space station is actually Otto's home.It’s just that the space station is huge, more than 90% of the space is already inhabited.

Perhaps the only place where this family of three can be accommodated alone can be called the word 'family'.

at this time.

Otto, who was dressed as a butler, opened the chairs for the two 'Misses'.Carefully spread napkins for them, set out knives and forks, and pour freshly squeezed juice and aged red wine.

Perhaps adding candles and dimming the room would turn it into a candlelit dinner straight away.

But apparently—

How can a family of three go to have a candlelight dinner?

"Otto, stop now!"

Seeing her husband who was busy coming and going, Kallen had no choice but to stop the man who seemed to have already entered the drama: "It's just the three of us having a dinner, there's no need to make it so grand."

"No, Kallen. I did it willingly."

Without noticing in a blink of an eye, Otto had already stood behind the little girl, wiping the sauce from the corner of her mouth with a clean tablecloth.

When she was aware of it and turned her head to look at it, the man suddenly stood next to Karen as if he would pause the incident, just in time for the dishes on the plate to be arranged and pushed to the person he loves .

"But with you like this... I can't even eat."

Otto was about to say—

[Look, isn't our daughter not affected at all?I'm almost becoming a transparent person! 】

But after meeting Kallen's eyes.

It took almost only a few seconds for Otto to raise the white piece and surrender.

"I'll listen to you."

He took off the black clothes on the outside, but inside was also a neat suit and tie.Coupled with the already extremely high-quality exterior, it looks like a standard modern aristocratic appearance.

Although he was originally a nobleman——

"And the tie? We're not going to a restaurant for dinner, why are we so nervous?"

"..."

then.

Otto immediately changed from a successful person to a dissolute down-and-out person.

But why does he always feel that Karen is trying to make him happy?

"Pfft!"

really.

It didn't take long for Caroline to laugh.

Especially after seeing the helplessness on Otto's face, he couldn't stop laughing.Even the little girl, who was focused on the food, turned her eyes to the pair of inexplicably crazy parents.

"...Stop making trouble, let's have dinner."

Although she knew that Otto would not be angry, Karen stopped after laughing for a while.

And announced the start of this family dinner.

......

After drinking for three rounds, I ate most of the food.

Karen assigned some homework to her daughter and sent her away.Then he followed into the kitchen, washing the dishes while chatting with parents who had nothing new to say.

And most of them are about the topic of the daughter, and Otto is rarely mentioned.

But even though he was put in a secondary position, Otto still quietly listened to Karen's story.Perhaps for him, even if Karen only knew "Abaaaba" the whole time, it would be as intoxicating as the movement of the kingdom of heaven.

"But! Sometimes I feel that I am so useless! My daughter is so powerful, I don't know how to teach her! Maybe in a while, she won't need me as a mother!"

"Not at all! Teresa...but she likes you Karen the most! To her, you are actually the most important thing, and the rest doesn't matter whether you exist or not."

"According to what you say, don't you matter? Isn't she also your daughter?"

"..."

Maybe this is called the authority fan.

As the closest mother to her daughter, Kallen was not as clear as a father like him.

That's right!

For a daughter, the most important thing is her mother, Kallen.His father is rarely noticed, as if he is a transparent person with only a name.

Although, he is the same.

"Finally finished washing, I'm so tired!"

When the last plate was set, Karen pretended to have a sore arm and thumped her shoulder.Otto gave her a massage in a considerate manner to relax the 'overworked' arm muscles.

"Then I'll do it myself next time."

"Aren't you too tired alone?"

"And the machines..."

There must be an automatic dishwasher or something.

only--

"If everything is left to the machine, then what's the point of my life? I finally found something I can do, so don't let the robot do it anymore?"

"..."

This may also be one of the problems with the high development of science and technology.

When everything can be handed over to machines in exchange for higher efficiency and higher quality benefits, people's spiritual and material lives are hard to satisfy.

"That's right! What time is it?"

"7 p.m...."

"Then I'll leave the rest to you. I'm going to find my daughter to take a bath!"

After finishing speaking, she left in a hurry.

Leaving Otto with his hands hanging in the air, he stared blankly at her leaving and put them down.

After a long time, he let out a sigh——

......

"Come in, baby, it's cold outside."

In the bathroom, Karen greeted her daughter who was undressing at the door after getting the water at a suitable temperature.Although with her daughter's physique, it is impossible to catch a cold.

"understood."

After hearing Karen's call, the little girl looked back.

She didn't know what the reason was. Whenever she and Karen took a bath, the outline that she could see all the time would disappear at this moment, and she didn't know where she went. (Milk-sick star Teresa)

After getting used to it over time, the little girl gradually stopped thinking about it.

Anyway, no matter how you think about it, there will be no answer.

Pushing open the bathroom door, she saw a 'girl' who could be her 'sister' but was actually a 'mother'.

At Kallen's reminder, put on the non-slip slippers placed at the door.

Uncomfortably stepping on this pair of slippers that seemed to have suction cups at the bottom, she walked under the shower head in front of Karen, and sat on the plastic stool placed there.

A stream of relatively small impact was poured on the top of her head; along the gap between the hair, it flowed to the face, eyes, nose, chin, and finally to the whole body.

Still, she lowered her head slightly to keep water from getting into her eyes and nostrils.

Let the water flow down only her cheeks and chin.

Kallen waited for the warm water to soak her skin, so that the dirt on her body would become easier to rub.By the way, I also chatted with her about what happened during the day.

"Tell the truth, were you afraid during the daytime test today?"

"No."

"But I have!"

Karen's exaggerated cry immediately caught the little girl's attention.

She raised her head to look at Karen, who was squatting beside her, although as the hot water continued to pour down, the entire bathroom was slowly filled with water vapor, making it more and more hazy and fuzzy.

But at such a close distance, the little girl still watched them all.

It's a pity that seeing her growing up from a young age may not understand what this means at all, and naturally there is no 'superfluous' idea.

Just sitting there, listening to Karen's slightly exaggerated narration with a calm face.

"You don't know! When I saw you jumping from such a high place, my heart almost popped out of my mouth, Mom!"

"Let's not mention how the heart got into the esophagus, Karen, you can't fit a heart in your mouth."

"Call mom!! Call mom!! How many times have I told you, don't call me by name directly!!"
