"Have you eaten?" He'll pretend like it's his fault. "What's wrong? Is the food bad?"
Yuveria pointed at the squid on the plate. "Yuve kono ika iyada." [Yuve doesn't want that squid.]
Since he said it in Japanese, Eros replied in the same language. "Then you want what?"
"Yuve wants the grilled squid that Yuve once ate."
"What kind of squid have you ever eaten?"
"Don't know. Haha-ue bought it so Yuve just ate."
Only Yujerian knew he was lying, because Yujerian and Yuveria often made grilled squid together.
...*...
All day long Eros really bullied. Because Yuveria did not want to eat squid made by the chef, they immediately bought grilled squid from the best Japanese restaurant chef in the city who is Japanese as well.
But Yuveria was still protesting for various reasons.
Because all the scum is served on the plate while he wants to be stabbed. But he didn't tell Eros to be in trouble.
At the end of the night, Eros is scolded because his son does not want to eat and Eros does not know what they want to eat, then scolded again because Eros wants to take them to another house.
"They're both Mother's grandchildren! Where would you take them if not in this house?!"
Finally unwilling to be restrained, Yujerian helped by saying, "We want to go home, Oba."
Laura's expression immediately turned soft. "Darling, stay here. If this father of yours does not suck and abandon you, then Granny—means Grandma, Oba will take care of you. Come, come. Comehere. Just sleep with Oba. Just ignore your useless father."
"Can we go home first?" Yuveria. "Oba's house is huge. We're afraid to live in a big house."
The expression of killing Laura was again directed at Eros.
His grandson's words imply they are too used to living poor to fear sleeping in a big house.
Eros just kept his mouth shut. Just be quiet and let your child be satisfied.
Despite having to go through a long drama, they were finally able to leave.
Yuveria slept on the helicopter hugging Eros' neck which rubbed her back gently.
"Nande damatteta?" In the end, he was curious. [Why silence?]
Eros. Somewhat hesitant but still extending a hand, rubbing Yujerian's head.
"Let's just say I paid for Dad's mistakes with you."
Yujerian's lips clenched. He didn't tell anyone that there was something on his chest that was beating and he was afraid it was something he shouldn't have.
...*...
Arriving at home, the two ran fast knowing Hestia was inside the house.
Lately their mothers are very difficult to find. Although the two of them had also understood from Mandala's explanation of Hestia's situation, still they were used to their mother's existence.
Yuveria was the first to stretch out her hands. Jumped into Hestia's embrace while Yujerian came after this.
It felt like it had been a long time until he put away his embarrassment for a while to act childishly.
"Haha-ue tonight's a stay?"
But both of them were instantly gloomy as Hestia shook her head.
"Yurushite, Yuuki, Yuui. Mom really wants to accompany you. Instead, tomorrow Mama will be with you all day. Hm? Can, right?" [Excuse Mama, Yuuki, Yuui.]
Yujerian rubbed Yuveria's back so her sister wouldn't cry. "Hi, Haha-ue. We understand Haha-ue did it for the right reasons. We're fine."
"The girl ne." Hestia kissed both of them.
Just sit on the floor so that both of them can freely hug their mothers, at least so that their feelings are treated.
From afar Eros just smiled. Hinted for the waiter to bring some food. Her son did not want to eat in front of Laura.
Hestia was combing Yuveria's hair when she heard the sound of her son's stomach ringing.
"Fuck? Onaka suita? Chichi didn't feed you?" [Well? You hungry?]
