That gained Lucifer’s ire as he scoffed and said, “And you’re not someone with one? You have the same dark personality traits as I do. Otherwise, how could you have survived for the past five years?”
Fia was stunned.
Lucifer continued, “Every time you go on a mission, your hands are always stained with blood. Didn’t you start with shaky hands at first but you got so good with it that it’s numbing your senses?”
Fia gulped. There were no words that she could say to counter his argument.
Lucifer was silent for a few seconds. He didn’t wait for her to speak again as he slowly became anxious and worried.
“Fia, I don’t want Adrian and Irene to turn out like us. I simply think that they’re still too young. We need to focus on their happiness.”
Fia then mechanically argued back. “They won’t be happy just because they don’t go to school.”
“I can hire a tutor for them. Send them back. Your mission is going to be quite long this time. It’s just not as convenient.”
“They’re my flesh and blood. I have the right to choose whether they’re going to school or not!” With that, she ended the call.
Lucifer was speechless.
With a helpless smile, he tossed the phone back on the table.
“She’s getting more snarky as time goes on.”
Lucifer shook his head with a smile. “And you… are the only one that I’ve given that kind of privilege.”
No one else would dare to talk back to him.
“Mommy, what did Daddy say?” The two children looked at Fia expectantly.
Fia let out a gentle smile. “Daddy said that he was just joking with you. He wants you to go to school like the other kids, so you can have a lot of buddies in the future.”
Irene blinked and looked at her. “Mommy, can buddies become my friends?”
“Of course.” Fia extended her hand and patted Irene’s head. She then looked at Adrian and asked, “Do you want to have friends just like Irene too?”
“No!” Adrian said, surprising her. Adrian then said earnestly, “I have Mommy, Daddy, and Irene, and that’s already enough. Friends will only take my love away from you!”
Fia looked at her son in shock. “Who told you that?”
“Not Daddy, but that’s what I feel.” He then frowned. “Irene’s so generous though! Every time she likes a small animal, she won’t have any more time for me! I don’t want her to have any friends! I don’t want any friends either!”
Fia wasn’t sure how to console her sensitive son.
Irene looked at Adrian pitifully, “But those animals are so cute! Can’t I play with them?”
“Hmph! That’s why I always throw your little animals into the sea every time!” Adrian roared angrily before jumping down from the chair and running back into the bedroom.
“Wah!” Irene began to cry.
So it was her brother who was behind the disappearance of the little animals she liked.
Fia didn’t know that something like that had happened between the two of them. She first consoled Irene who was easier to deal with before going over and knocking at Adrian’s room
door.
“Adrian, can I come in?”
No sound came out. It meant that her son was still angry and didn’t want to talk to anyone.
But she knew she couldn’t let it be. He would get angrier if she simply ignored him.
“Adrian, I’ll count to three. If you don’t stop me, I’m coming in, alright?”
“One.”
“Two.”
“Three.”
There was no sound from the inside. And so, she sighed in relief and went in.
There was something hiding under the blanket. It was Adrian.
Fia sat on the bedside and tapped on the blanket.
“Adrian, can you tell me why you threw away your sister’s animals?”
