Hestia woke up from her sleep feeling a wet sensation of tears. For a moment Hestia kept silent to let Eros wipe away her tears, but fell back when Hestia was not sad.
"What's wrong? You're having a nightmare?"
Samar, Hestia nodded. "Yujerian often held himself back whenever he wanted to say something. Did you give me any news?"
Eros enveloped Hestia's hand with his. "They didn't want to go, so Mom just accompanied them at home. They miss you."
Yep. Hestia thinks he has made a lot of big mistakes that may affect the mental of his son.
Now Hestia wanted to meet them, but she was afraid that if Yujerian and Yuveria saw her in this condition, their hatred for Eros would be even greater.
Fathers are important in the life of every child. Mom gave birth, but Dad was like a protector and most expected.
Therefore, Hestia did not want the chest of her two children gaping due to hatred for their father.
"Eros."
"Hm?"
"Can you be patient a little more? Just a little more."
Eros shakes. "I'll be patient forever."
Hestia should not have asked. "They'll be against you again." Hestia's hand was pointing at her face. "They'll say something like kussojiji or hentaiyaro."
Eros laughed. "I understand the taste. Sometimes I want to say that to Dad."
"That's because they're so hopeful. And maybe confused." Hestia felt she had to explain. "You know, like .. like they wish you existed, but when you were, they were angry because you weren't there before, and then they were pounding because they loved you so much, but they feel foreign to it until they even—"
"Hey, relax. I-i understand. Explain it slowly."
Hestia's breath was swift and heavy. He also honestly did not understand how to explain it.
After all, he was not really sure that was what the two felt or were different. However, Hestia sensed that to Darius.
"Yes. I get it." Eros nodded patiently. "What else? Just say it."
"Yujerian is often frightened. Very often. Much more often than Yuve." Hestia let her tears fall as she remembered the child. "He forced himself. Keep thinking that, if not him, then there is no one else. Because there's no you."
Eros blinked with red eyes. Nodding at that. "What do you think I should do?"
"Hug him. Make him believe that there is you. Show me you're really going to be with her." Hestia blinked and her tears escaped. "He loves the ocean. Same as me. He could stand still for hours looking at the ocean. When I look at the ocean, I always think of Papa. I think he's the same."
"I'll take her out to sea together" answered Eros rambunctiously. "She likes to play chess together? What about robots? Or the forest?"
"Yuve loves the forest." Hestia laughed a little. "Yujerian did not enjoy the forest very much, but he would leave if Yuve left. Robot, he likes it. Especially robots that need to be assembled by themselves. He was always satisfied after spending a day and night assembling the robot. Ah, the dream I think .. he said he wanted to assemble a giant robot alone."
Eros rubbed his hands. "I'm gonna ask Norman to build a giant robot to assemble. What else?"
There are many things, actually, but Hestia feels quite first to get there. From now on there is plenty of time for Eros to understand his children.
"Yuveria." Hestia hasn't forgotten her daughter, obviously. "He's a simple kid. Many things he liked, but not too much to be directed like Yujerian. He'll say what he wants if he wants to. Most importantly, Yuve was very praiseworthy. Very." Very."
"What should I praise him for? She's beautiful, she's sweet, she's smart, she's the only angel?"
Hestia laughed again. "Hontoni oyabakada ne kimi wa." [You really are your son's love slave.]
Eros face gently looked at him. "Cantake everything?"
"Hm. Voice too. Yuve was very proud of the singing. Ask her to sing often, she'll be very, very happy."
Hence Yuveria often goes to Teruhashi to sing. Too bad, hiding something from a mother is not as easy as her child thinks.
Hestia knows. He let them be sure it was all hidden because it seemed they preferred it.
