The Son in Law. Possibly.

SimplicityWeb Novel [ ]October 15, 20224 Minutes

[The Castletown certainly gives this loud and lively feeling, dont you think? Its really the best place to lay low and have fun while hiding our identities.]

It seems like the princess is in high spirits. Well, as someone who came from Japan like her, I can sympathize with the thought of going out and having fun in the downtown of a city.

I do somehow enjoy formal events and occasions as it gives me the opportunity to enjoy Laurel and Sashas elegance and regality. But Id rather adore those moments myself. Those kinds of places arent really my place to hang out with.

[Laurel, lets be careful and avoid getting separated. Your hand, dear.] (Calis)

[Thank you, Father.] (Laurel)

[Please keep yourself close to me as well, Seryu-sama.] (C)

[Understood.] (Seryu)

Seems like Laurels feeling good as we walk holding hands while the prince seems a bit reserved trying to keep his distance.

I dont think Laurels expecting anything of this trip but she seems pretty excited. I cant help but glance at her repeatedly because of it am I missing a hint or something?

Its not like its a bad thing for my daughter to be this excited. In fact I cant help but smile at myself seeing how much fun she is currently having. Oh dear.

[Hmmmm? How about me? Arent you worried about this little lady?] (Serena)

[It appears to me that youre quite familiar with this place already so there isnt much else for me to worry about, Princess Serena. Besides, if something unexpected happens, Id be able to do something as long as you remain within my hands reach.] (C)

[Is that so.? How reassuring of you, Duke Fall.] (Serena)

Its not like Im disregarding her or anything but I cant really explain it myself how complicated I feel about talking to this person, who is a fellow reincarnator. Well, I still think there wont be any problem not paying much attention to her though.

Because lets be honest. Providing escort and security is one thing but my main objective in this trip is to let my daughter have fun and be happy.

Id work right down to the tee regarding their security, of course, but since were just talking about keeping three handful children safe, then I dont think theres much to worry. I have a few cards myself under my sleeve even if I got outnumbered so there shouldnt be any problem.

[However, you need to watch yourself how to address me and Seryu. Albeit were in disguise, at least for today, we are your daughter and son. Soooo, father?] (Srn)

*shivers*

I wonder how can something I understand logically in my head be something so hard to accept? Father, she said

[Seryu, you too. Take this chance to get used to calling the duke your father.] (Srn)

[Huh..? o-oh Uhm, father?] (Sry)

[Now, now. Thats nice. Just like that try saying father-in-law.] (Srn)

[F-father] (Sry)

Good thing Prince Seryu decided to call out to me normally, ignoring his sisters strange nuances Id really have to be careful around this girl. But certainly, I have to fix my way of addressing them.

[*Coughs* E-ehem Well then, lets go. Laurel, Seryu, Serena.]

[Y-yes!] (Sry)

It seems like Prince Seryus really happy about this setup, huh.

Though my daughter on the other hand looks displeased. Oh dear, why do you look so sullen, Laurel?

*Hugs* (L)

Oh, goodness.

I pamper Laurel as she hugs me as we go our way.

Its alright, dear.

This is just the setting that we have for today so do not worry. You will always be my child and my love for you will never be taken away by anyone else.

*Pat, pat, pat*

It seems my thoughts and feelings have reached my daughter, huh.

Laurel-san, you look excited and lively once again!

As it should be. My daughters really the cutest!

Still calling Seryu-sama casually and having him as my son, even just for today err if he continues to grow with an upright and faithful heart, then Id be willing to give him Laurels hand. I Id be willi ugh The thought of it actually is a bit hard for me but if Laurel falls for him and chooses to get married with the prince, I can only accept it.

I have to accept even though it would pain me, if Laurel will be happy, then I shall let it be.

Seriously, parenting is a really difficult thing But being able to witness the joy and happiness of my daughter just makes everything feel so rewarding. So no matter what Laurel chooses to do, as long as shes happy about it, I shall support her with it.
