Dark Autumn's

09. The Red Between Blue

It seems like due to the dress hook incident yesterday, Lea became a little traumatized.

This morning, the weather was quite friendly. The sun rose and gave off its warm rays as usual. Just what made him different was that he was now part of the many people who gathered to form a slightly oval circle on the dining table. Not as much as the hustle and bustle in the city, but quite a lot for the size of a family.

The Val family is clearly ordinary and enjoy a meal to fill their stomachs in the morning before starting activities like humans in general. And Leah wasn't used to it. He crumpled his knuckles to whiten, right carried the table where he was sitting at this time.

Hey, don't act like a human...

The noise, the presence of strangers, and also, she sees a strange look from one of the family members to Val, and herself. His discomfort continued to creep into the recesses of his heart, forcing him to stop and end all activities that did not in fact make him feel tasteful.

Either this is just his feeling, or indeed being stared at disliked by the girl who was opposite his seat. His eyes reflected his dislike for Leah who was trying to enjoy the family event that would be his agenda every day. He is Henny.

The woman is none other than Val's cousin. She was slender, had a pretty face, and her eyes were different from those of all family members; there was a slight splash of red on the pupil between the sapphire blue colors that encircled her net iris. Lea could see it clearly because the light of the dining room was bright.

What makes it look different? The bloodline? I don't know, as a writer who likes to find information, Lea will try to solve that one. Later.

But can not do anything, stagnant in his seat while trying to blend in-adjust. That's all he can do right now.

"Val, can I go back first? "

The man only gave the condition that Lea would not do it. His family would not like it if suddenly someone left the dining table before the oldest member had finished.

"I'm not comfortable! " he tried to emphasize certainty with a serious face.

"Wait a minute! Nana's gonna end it in fifteen minutes! "

Oh, come! Lea could not bear the gaze of the brother who introduced his name with the 'symbol' Henny earlier.

All right, Lea's trying to hold on as Val promised. He'll last fifteen minutes.

The woman Val calls Nana is a pale-skinned old woman who loves to make jokes, which makes the whole presentation at the dinner table laugh full of Wibawa.

"Where do you plan to go on your honeymoon? "

The girl did not hear, until her palm was forcefully grabbed by Val and looked at her gently lovingly and with a smile. Making Lae immediately aware of the disturbing taste. All eyes were on the two of them.

"Ah, we're not going anywhere, nana! I was busy, and Lea also seemed to be less fond of long trips! So we'll just stay home! "

Henny, smile on her side. It was so damn, that Lea was sick of seeing it. If it was Haiden-his best friend, maybe Lea would have stuck out her eyeballs until the girl cried and brought her case to the police. Really, Lea doesn't like this human named Henny.

"Is it really like that? Nana just found out that Lea does not like long trips?! "

The old woman with a slightly quivering voice and the wrinkled facial skin smiled, demanding an explanation from Val's voice that gave a speech.

A second later, Lea smiled back as sweetly as possible while nodding faintly, to please Nana.

"I-iya grandma! I don't like to travel far! " sovereign.

"You don't have anything to do after this? "

Lea rotated staring around, she was still confused whether the question was directed at her or someone else. Val rubbed the back of her small hand while gesturing if the question was indeed for her.

"L-yes... "

"Come to my room! I want to tell you a lot! "

"Good grandma! "

"Call me Nana, like the others! You are also a member of the family now! "

Lea nodded, knowing full well that the old woman was a warm figure.

♛♛♛

The room is large, the light is not too bright. The window is right facing east, making Mentari light in order to warm the old person who is currently sitting with a seat as high as the waist of an adult, holding a parcel and looks like making a Rose flower pattern on a white cloth as wide as a square nightstand next to it.

The smell of the room is very distinctive, like a Rose flower; fragrant and soothing.

Lea walked slowly so as not to make the person surprised, especially to receive an impromptu heart attack because of his rough steps.

Instead of the woman being surprised, Lea now jumps small when the vibrating voice feels its presence.

"You've come? "

Lea's life seemed to be reduced by half because of Nana's sudden welcome voice. Lea replied in her honeyed voice, while glued while squeezing the palms of each other right in front of the stomach.

"Val's gone to work? "

"I-iya ne -"

He had almost forgotten what the old woman said at the dinner table.

"Yes Nana! "

"Close the door, and sit by me! "

Without Lea guessing, this woman's room was far away from the other residents. Must pass through a large Rose flower garden and a storage warehouse, as well as a guide from the castle administrators to arrive at this comfortable and quiet room.

Lea stepped slowly and sat on a chair of the same height facing each other. Staring at the strokes on Nana's old face. Then he said, "What does Nana want to tell me?! "

The woman stopped piercing the rose-patterned white cloth, placed the parcel and the needle on a small table between them, then lifted her face to see Lea's beautiful face exposed to the morning sun.

"I want to tell you one truth among the other truths of this family! Come here every morning after breakfast, and I'll tell you one by one! Upon arrival and your curiosity! "[]
