It was his foster son who knocked on the door of his room. Not long ago I went to the study room to call her and kept reading books all night, or she was buried in a book and almost asleep in the rice field. Iris was lying on a low bed in her room, slumped into sleep.
"Iris?" Neu heard in a soft voice. "Are you awake?"
“Hmm... I'm up, please.” Door opens. Iris tilted her head as she woke up and saw Neu holding the blanket. "what has happened?"
"Can I sleep together?"
Iris blinked, wondering what happened. I'm not the kind of kid who says that. But there is no reason to refuse. I'm kind of happy. When I gestured, I came to Iris with small steps.
"I feel like I can hear someone's voice ..."
"You read too much" Iris smiled and combed Neu's hair lying next to her. "I'm full of words and I feel like someone is reading the text aloud, right?"
Neu did not answer. I rubbed my face on Iris's chest. Iris quietly extended her arm and hugged him.
"Good night, miss"
"good night"
Sensing her body temperature, Iris wondered how long she could do this. Neu will soon grow up. Then he'll go to Iris.
Much better than dying. The idea that children rarely die before their parents is part of his true bad intentions. But her partner is different. The closer he got, the more likely he was to lose something important. I don't like that anymore. Iris made her determination to make it a gem. I won't lose it again, so I won't even start ...
"Iris"
Two small eyes were staring at my chest.
"Well, you haven't slept?"
"I have something to ask," Neu quivered and flipped so that Iris' face could look better.
"What does the Lady think of Hu Lam?"
“How about Fulham?” Iris scared. "What happened, what happened?" "What did Fulham and Kouim say?"
Tun Iran Kou Im, the father of someone Iris and her colleagues call "Mr. Tun Iran," has never seen it. It was Su who explained his identity. He said he would leave tomorrow, so he would probably be in a room somewhere in this huge mansion. I thought that I might not be happy with the person who suddenly entered the place, but it did not seem so when I thought of that friendly attitude. But he said something strange. What about "magic"?
"Iris, please answer," Neu hurriedly replied.
"Kids don't have to think"
"I'm not a child, I'm family" Neu recklessly argued that Iris had round eyes. "The family naturally worries about the family."
“Sorry, Noi.” This clever boy couldn't possibly be unaware of the complicated relationship between Iris and Fulham.
"I don't want you to apologize. I want you to feel relieved."
"I'm sorry, I don't even know" he replied honestly.
"I don't know what the person is, or I'm aiming for the inheritance .. I don't know because there's so much suspicion?"
thought Iris.
"Those who have many secrets have many secrets."
That was a bargain. For men and women.
"Adults can be irreparable once they know it. That's why I didn't dare to ask. I know he's good, so that's it."
That's all you need. Just looking at what he showed was enough for Iris. She felt the mark Iris was looking for in her life. Self-confidence, courage make a family, and strong strength to live. He was more than enough to be a supportive and reassuring partner to me, but I didn't want him...
"Fu Lam also thought so, so she was on the woman's side."
"e?"
"I know Iris well, so that's all I need."
Iris squinted her eyes. I sighed and said, "I want to know." He won't be satisfied with that from now on. No matter how soft or gentle she was, she knew what she was hiding through her lips.
"What's Fu Lam for Iris?"
I want to hear it. So I heard. "What do you look like?"
"lover"
I was overwhelmed by a short and honest expression.
"No, dead. Come on, good night."
"I can't sleep because I'm worried" Neu said.
"I want to appreciate it, but there's a relationship I have to do, but I don't want to be that relationship," she looked at Neu and poked her cheek. "Do you understand?"
I'm sure you don't know. Even Iris was incomprehensible. We seek relationships that neither white nor black can match.
"I don't want to be a lover or a wife, but I love you."
Mumbled Neu. From the mysteries of the world that exist somewhere within him, words are true.
"Is that so?"
Iris suddenly became stiff.
Words don't come out. In his black eyes, there was something that represented everything within him. When his eyes laughed, tears almost spilled involuntarily. He is aware of his selfishness, cunning, cowardice, and weakness.
"Iris, don't be afraid" Neu rose. He wrapped it up by lying on his cheek and smiling like an angel. "You love someone, because he loves me. Why should you be afraid?"
His heart box is shaking. The eyes of the stomach were shaking.
That's when the sound of knocking resounded. Iris sighed. Intuition tells me who he is.
“Fulham?” The small question is confirmation. Exhaling fear, Iris looked at Neu. Neu smiled.
"Go back to the room" Grab a blanket and open the door Iris can't open.
Behind the open door was his tall figure. "No?" He was silent awkwardly, perhaps unexpectedly. "Good night," said politely and cheerfully, Noi gave way to him and finally looked back at Iris.
"Just one word is fine" he said. "Don't lose"
And the wise boy held his chest behind the closed door and muttered.
"This is all I can do"
