The next day, Erekleus came to the lake to remember his son. Believing in disbelief, Erekleus did not even know when he was born.
There was nothing Erekleus knew about the boy aside from the fact that he must have lived down there, with Mute now focused on studying medicine.
Erekleus asked Sanya to teach him. He was afraid Mute was bored and thought he was really just trash, so Erekleus at least wished him to become the Narendra family doctor one day.
Sometimes Erekleus wondered what the child looked like? Don't know a shred of Erechleus doesn't even feel he's alive? Is he sad?
"I regret a little not being selfish" murmured Erekleus miris. "But his life now would have been better than his if it had been with me from the beginning."
"...."
"But I miss you, son."
"Hey, Uncle!"
Erekleus. His head fell toward the sound of the bell and was completely breathless to see a small child waving on the bridge.
Whatisthis?
Is Erekleus hallucinating? Is it because it's still too early so he's still half asleep?
"Uncle!" Meanwhile, Anastasia waved her hands. "Uncle, come here for a second! Come, Uncle!"
The boy doesn't like to wait. She was very curious and early in the morning she slipped, because yesterday Aunt Sanya said she should not go up again until allowed.
The world is on his side. The Grandpa-like uncle he saw was even riding a boat on the lake.
"Uncle, come here!"
Erekleus was unaware he was standing on the boat, due to his completely unstoppable taste.
His kid. That's son. It must be him!
But Erechleus's actions just now were foolish because his boat was flying, causing Erechleus to just fall into the lake.
Anastasia who saw Grandfather-Like-Faced Uncle fell spontaneously shut her mouth. The little girl observed, then shook her head.
"Bas stupid," he murmured innocently. "Didn't his mother teach standing on a boat was dangerous?"
Anastasia had always been taught that even if she had never boarded a boat. Even Anastasia was crawling on the bridge because Grandpa said, running on the bridge made her drown in the lake and choke to death water.
"Eh?" Anastasia's face immediately turned pale. "Did he die? Drown dead?"
The boy suddenly faced 😱 looking at the surface of the lake.
Uncle did not show up. Though it's been a while.
Without a second thought Anastasia jumped, thinking she could be the superhero who saved that Foolish Uncle. The clear water of the lake allowed her to see a little without her glasses, but Anastasia did not see her Uncle.
Just now Anastasia was about to return to the surface, breathing first just dive again, suddenly a pair of arms hugged her tightly.
He climbed to the surface until he could breathe.
"Dad's Baby."
Erekleus cried hugging him. Smells his wet face and neck, no matter if he has to now while holding on to the edge of the bridge.
"You are grown" raced Erekleus. "You're a big boy, son."
Anastasia cengo's. "Uncle."
"Dad." Erekleus. "Call me Dad."
"Uncle named Father?"
Important notes to remember and Erekleus did not know. Anastasia doesn't know what Dad is. Sanya deliberately did not teach him, in the slightest, that all humans must have a father and a mother.
Anastasia never looked for Dad because the boy didn't know he had a father. He doesn't even know what dad is. And Sanya always judged Anastasia's ignorance as happiness for the child himself.
"Why is my uncle crying? Uncle's very weird." Anastasia sneered at Erekleus. "Let's go to the surface. Ana doesn't like getting wet!"
Erekleus was shocked to see his son's reaction. Why does he look so relaxed?
But because of that, his son Erekleus raised their bodies to the bridge. Put Anastasia down and make sure she doesn't drink the lake water.
"You're not asphyxiated? Your nose isn't clogged?"
Anastasia. "It can be sweet!" the boy shouted angry. I don't like to be considered stupid. "Uncle is not Grandpa. Different from Grandpa. Ana doesn't like it!"
"Eh?"

Erekleus needed time to understand that his son did not recognize him as a father. The boy looked at him as uncle—the name for all adult males without exception in the Anastasia— brain dictionaryand considered the word Father as someone's name.
The next second Erekleus realized that he should not have met this child. But in the next few seconds, Erekleus swore he would not stop looking at him.
"Your name is Ana?"
"Anastasias." The boy looked at him a little unfriendly. "Uncle Dad is Grandpa's brother? Where's Grandpa?"
"Grandfather?"
"Grandfather Cat."
Erekleus. He could immediately remember who the Cat Grandpa was. The stupid cat, Erekleus growled. He met my son secretly and didn't even tell me anything?!
"My name is not Dad." Erekleus did not answer Anastasia but chose to straighten out. "That's my call. My name is Erekleus."
"Er-huh?"
Erekleus laughing. "Your reaction is just like your mother used to be. My name is hard, right? So call me Dad."
"All right." Anastasia agreed rather than having to call him by his name. "Then Dad, where's Grandpa?"
"Why are you looking for him?"
"Because Ana likes Grandpa." Anastasia answered with sincerity. "Paman—Father is very similar to Grandpa so Ana is curious. Then said Aunt Sanya, Uncle Elios but Erlus."
"Dad, Ana."
"Yes, Dad, whatever."
She looked like Aunt Sanya, Erekleus thought in horror. I didn't see Mute—'s side one bit except about her yelling earlier.
"I'm not Grandpa's brother, I'm his son."
Anastasia tilted her face as Erekleus continued to dry her hair. "Kids?"
"It's like a bond between you and your mother."
"Mother?"
"You call her Mother?" Erekleus asked curiously. "Does Mother know you're here?"
"No. Mother will be angry if Ana rises so this is a secret. Understand, Dad?"
Erekleus smiled. "Of course, Princess."
"Then get Grandpa." Anastasia has not given up. "Ana wants to see Grandpa."
Things that make Erekleus wrinkled unhappy. "Why do you want to meet Grandpa?"
"Because Grandpa gave Ana a tan," Anastasia replied as if Erekleus' question was very stupid. "Whoever gives Ana unconditional chocolate is a good person."
"Then I'll give you whatever chocolate, whatever, you want."
"REally?!" Anastasia jumped in joy. "Well, Dad, I thought you were a fool!"
Erekleus laughing. Can't bear to not hug the little body of her child that makes her want to cry longing.
He had forgotten that meeting his son was a grave offense.

"So, you're seeing your son?"
It was impossible for the incident to fall in the lake until the boat capsized it could be kept secret. As soon as Anastasia was able to clear the bottom of the lake, Erekleus was immediately summoned to face Ares, the First Young Master.
Erekleus knew that he had made a mistake and that he should not have had the child interact even if he had met. But Erekleus could not.
He is so small, funny and adorable. She is also very beautiful, sweet and amazing. How could Erekleus pretend to be unfamiliar?
"Erekleus, thank you because your son is born and well" Ares told him. "I know you may miss your son a lot, but interacting let alone making him know you're his father is like announcing that you want to break the rules again."
