VF 102 The Day Words are First Said

[Yuu-i.]

A year has passed since Mint and Basil were born. We watch Basil as he stands up while holding on to different things for support when he almost stumbled and was rescued by Yuri. Nothing really surprising there except that Basil looked at Yuri and uttered her name while staring at her. To be honest, I was surprised. And the same can be said to Reina whos attending to Mint beside me.

[That was Basil, right? He can now speak?] (Calis)

[That seems to be the case.] (Reina)

[And of all things, Yuris name had to be the first word that he said] (C)

[Well, considering that Yuris been attending to Basil-sama for the whole year that has passed, I believe thats pretty normal.] (R)

I know. Yuris been pretty proactive as well in taking care of Basil. But, how to say this, actually seeing that the first word Basil learned was Yuris name feels a little frustrating as a parent. Well, I guess its still a blessing that Mother whos been visiting regularly lately isnt here to witness his grandson recognizing someone else first besides us.

[Yuu-iii] (Basil)

[Im here, Basil-sama.] (Yuri)

Basil calls Yuri once again while giggling and Yuri, whos stoic most of the time, has an affectionate smile directed to him.

[Thank you, Basil-sama Calling my name, I feel so happy] (Y)

[Yu-iii, Yu-iiii] (B)

[Yes, Basil-sama.] (Y)

W-what the? Can these two already make a world of their own?

[Yuri might appear disinterested most of the time but shes pretty easy to get attached to cute and little things. Yuri must have found Basil-sama to be her favorite ever since she came as a servant to the estate thats why shes so attached to him.] (R)

[*Shocked* *Sweating* I I see Yeah, I understand but is it really okay to leave them alone like that?] (C)

[It should be fine. Yuri should be aware of her own standing as a maid. Id put her to a stop myself before anything weird happens.] (R)

[Ill leave it to you You see, I dont mind it if they get close like that but that is until Basil is at the right age.] (C)

[*Shocks*] (R)

Considering how close they are and if Basil, when he grows up, eventually falls in love with Yuri, a maid, at that time, then Id just have to accept that. Its not like anyone would be able to oppose whoever Basil chooses to be by his side unless he chooses a guy then yeah, even I wouldnt really easily agree with that. First and foremost, he needs to produce an heir.

[How about you, how are you doing these days?] (C)

[As to what exactly?] (R)

[With Miguel, of course. Any news?] (C)

[T-thats, well there isnt a bit] (R)

[Oh, I see. No rush, just do things at your own pace. Ill cheer for you both.] (C)

I pick up Mint after saying so and play a bit with my cute little daughter. Since Basils already being taken care of by Yuri, then Id just shower my fatherly love to my other cute baby.

[*tickle tickle*] (C)

[Ahehihi, pa pa] (Mint)

[*Gasps* Reina I wonder if I heard it right It felt like she just said papa] (C)

[You heard it right, Duke Fall. Mint-sama clearly said papa.] (R)

[Thats right I see Thank you, Mint.] (C)

[*Gyaoo*] (M)

I can only express my appreciation from the warmth my daughter brought with just a single

word. Slowly but surely, the twins are growing little by little.
