Teresa won't starve

"Indeed, it's just a baby tooth."

If it was just an ordinary child, Otto could still use this reason to convince himself.But their daughter is not an extraordinary person. It is truly abnormal that this kind of ordinary thing happens to her daughter.

"Otto, have you been too tired recently? Just lost a baby tooth, which means that our daughter has grown up. Just like when we were young, do you remember when your baby tooth fell out?"

—Who remembers that kind of thing?

Otto opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say any objection, and agreed with Karen's point of view with a smile:

"Well, you're right."

......

That being said.

Otto finally pulled Karen hard and asked her to give his daughter a full-body examination with him.As a result, not only did the inspection find nothing, but it also made Karen nervous.

Karen couldn't help complaining to him: "I've said that there is nothing wrong, but you still want to torment your daughter. Are you satisfied now?"

"..."

Caroline was happy though.

At least this shows that Otto cares about his daughter from the bottom of his heart, rather than just perfunctory her like he was at the beginning.

Helping her daughter lying on the instrument down, the first thing Karen told her, other than whether the tooth hurts or not, was: "Is there anything you want to eat? Or something you want to do?"

"Read a book?"

The little girl thought for a while and said.

Then she was immediately rejected mercilessly by Karen: "No! You have to play with mom today! If mom is unhappy, you have to stay with mom every day!"

"..."

It's just a standard rogue, but he just said it so righteously.

There was no other way, the little girl could only think of a game that used her brain and was not so boring: "Play chess?"

"Chess..."

This time, it was Kallen's turn to start having a headache.

For a Valkyrie who doesn't need a brain to fight, if she wants to know how to play chess well, it would be easier for her to fight a Honkai Emperor.

So she could only talk to her daughter in a negotiating tone: "That! Mom is a big idiot, can you change to a game that even an idiot knows how to play?"

The little girl looked at Karen suspiciously.

Felt like she was just using her wit in weird ways, not being a big idiot like she said.

However, he didn't object, and found a Monopoly-like board game; except for some values ​​that required brain calculations, most of them were purely a matter of luck.

Basically, except for those in the industry who are good at throwing thousands, no one can determine the specific points that the dice can roll.

In addition, this is not a one-person game, so they simply brought Otto over to play together. (Au·Tor, sent by recharge)

......

in this way.

Amidst the laughter—mainly Kallen's—the sun was about to set in the blink of an eye.

Of course, because this is on the space station.

With the space station always keeping one side facing the sun, there is no way to judge the time through the trajectory of the sun like on the earth.

But as long as she heard her daughter's belly growling, Karen would immediately think that it was time for someone to cook.It happened that her legs were numb from sitting, so she took her daughter to exercise her body.

"Did you have fun today?"

Karen is simply doing some body stretching exercises. Exercising a lot before eating is not good for the body.

"Fortunately."

The little girl looked quite indifferent, making it impossible to tell whether she was happy or unhappy.Obviously, she is more interested in adding new knowledge than playing this kind of game.

Or fight against a strong enemy?

After a while, the body is almost stretched.The little girl who was sweating a little suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in her stomach, so she told Karen to go to the toilet.

After all, as long as it is not some named 'Herserscher', it is actually a strange species like a fairy.Most human beings still need to excrete, otherwise human beings would have evolved to be as leak-free as robots.

It's just that Karen showed an LSP-like look after listening to it:

"Oh?! Go, go, do you want mom to accompany you?"

"Need not."

The little girl refused indifferently.

"Okay, then it's time for me to start preparing."

After watching her daughter disappear around the corner, Karen put away her smiling face.He turned around and walked to the kitchen, helping Otto to start dinner.

In this way, after having a helper, the husband and wife cooperated with each other and put the steaming dinner on the table half an hour earlier than usual.

When the table was almost full, Otto realized that there seemed to be one person missing.

He immediately grabbed Karen's hand who was about to go to the kitchen:

"Where's Teresa? Why didn't you see her?"

"Oh, she went to the bathroom, it's going to..."

With that said, Karen looked at the mechanical watch hanging on the wall.

"..."

"..."

"..."

"..."

The couple remained motionless as they did a few seconds ago, as if the power of time had lost its effect at this moment.

until--

Clap! !

The white porcelain bowl containing the vegetable soup fell from Kallen's hands, and fell to the ground, smashing her body to pieces.The hot soup inside got into Karen's shoes and socks, stimulating her with a burning temperature.

But she didn't care about it at all, and ran towards the bathroom as soon as she turned around.

Relying on Kaslan's usual strange strength, he staggered and bent the metal door frame of the bathroom that was locked from the inside, and only then did he see his daughter lying on the ground who seemed to be asleep.

"!"

At that moment, Karen felt that the air was hot, burning her nasal cavity with bursts of pain.Even the heart seemed to stop beating.

Immediately knelt down to pick up her daughter, stroked her body with hands and feet in a panic, kissed her cheek with her lips, and sniffed: "Don't be afraid! Don't be afraid! Mom is here! It's all mom's fault! Mom is wrong! Mom shouldn't let you come out by yourself! I'm sorry!"

The more she spoke, the more intense the heat in her eye sockets became.

And as the sourness gradually increased, something vaguely rolled down from both sides of the bridge of the nose.

"Stop talking about this, Kallen, come with me!"

Otto, who arrived later, saw it, but he was much calmer than her.After lifting Karen up, she was about to hug the daughter lying in her arms.

"No need for you! I will do it myself!"

Karen faced him with her red face, holding her daughter tightly and refusing to let go: "I am her mother! I will take good care of her!"

1522 "Theresa's Timepiece 1"

"Karen."

"No, it should be 'Mom'."

......

"Karen."

"How many times have I told you to call 'Mom', 'Mom', don't just call me by my name!"

......

"Karen."

......

......

......

"Call my name! Just one more time, one more time!"

Touching the smooth, hard glass cover like a wall separating them.Looking at the little girl sleeping in the solution, Karen seemed to have returned to the time when she first saw her.

At that time, she was not even as big as a fist, and she was far from being as cute as she is now.

But in Kallen's eyes, it was more beautiful than anything in this world.

"Open your eyes and come see me! Just this time, please!"

however--

The little girl could not hear her voice.

Like a little sleeping beauty, intoxicated in a beautiful dream.

......

Otto, who came quietly behind him, wanted to raise his hand to comfort her.But when he was about to touch her, he suddenly put his hand down.

Instead, they walked to her side and looked at the daughter in the life support device together.

"Why, why are you here?"

After Karen noticed Otto, she subconsciously said something casually.

But as soon as he said it, what should have been a very standard conversation suddenly went out of tune and became another language.Hastily sniffed, and wiped away the tears on his face with both hands, but instead made his palms and face even more slippery.

Kallen, who didn't even bring a piece of paper with her, could only wipe her wet hands on the clothes on her body.

"Use this."

In time, Otto sewed a towel with a pattern of a bear watering the grass with a green body and brown and white threads at the corner.

Needless to say, it was definitely not an adult like him who would use this kind of towel.

Karen hesitated as expected when she saw it.

But it was only for a moment, I grabbed the towel and wiped my hands and face clean before smiling at Otto with a forced face: "I must have looked ugly just now."

"..................Um."

Otto opened his mouth, and it took a while to close it again.

Said in a half-joking tone: "So you have to pay attention to your image! Otherwise, when Teresa wakes up and finds that you have turned into an ugly mother, she might dislike you very much."

"She won't dislike me! Because I am the grown-up her, and her dislike of me means..."

Afterwards, the words slowly started to go out of tune. When Karen noticed, something had flowed out from the tip of her chin, wet the collarbone's white collar.

Gradually, she began to lose strength, and knelt down against the glass of the life support device.

Otto didn't try to pull her up, but chose to be at the same height as her.Seeing her haggard look, he couldn't hold back for a while and said a harsh word:

"If Teresa sees you now, she will definitely laugh at you for being a crybaby!"

"Crybaby? No, I don't—"

Karen wanted to refute, but suddenly couldn't find a reason to refute.Because of the way she is now, what else could she be if she wasn't a crybaby?

But not long after, Karen stood up abruptly, wiped her eyes with her sleeve neatly; and stared at her blue eyes that were already red, looking down at her husband fiercely:

"So what if I'm a crybaby? Teresa is completely different from what you said! She is so gentle and smart, it is absolutely impossible to laugh at her mother! It is you! Are you saying this to provoke the relationship between our mother and daughter?"

"I never thought..."

Seeing the aggressive method seemed to help a little, maybe even a little too much.While Otto breathed a sigh of relief, he could only bite the bullet and keep a smile on his face.

"You! Forget it, let me forgive you this time!"
