I Ended Up Saving My Crazy Stepfather - Chapter 131.2
“Then Dad, I’ll go. Let’s go Theo.”
I grabbed Theo’s hand. At that moment, my dad’s expression changed very slightly, but I didn’t pay attention to it. I swung Theo’s hand back and forth, and left the place like that.
As I arrived while holding Theo’s hand, my brother was reading on the sofa in a slightly smaller but neater room.
“Ah…”
Naturally, as if he knew someone else had come in, Vasilio hurriedly got up from his seat as soon as he saw me.
“It’s Bebe.”
“Yes, Brother.”
“Long time no see.”
Vasilio approached me before I knew it and swept my hand.
“How are you?”
In the meantime, my tall twin brother Vasilio, had improved quite a bit from when I first saw him, as if he became someone else.
He had gained a little weight, and his messy hair was organized to some extent. My heart jumped a little at his appearance.
“Yes, how have you been?”
“I’ve been well.”
Cecilia, who was looking at us, took a step back and said, “I’ll bring some snacks.”
“Okay!”
Naturally, my brother and I were left in the room. Theo also went out of the room, as if he wasn’t too worried about me meeting my brother.
I thought I would be able to ask ‘how are you’ and do this and that when I met him, but I didn’t know what to say. Vasilio just led me to the sofa and smiled.
“I missed you, Bebe.”
“I wanted to see you too, but I was worried if I could come and see you.”
“The investigation has been completed to some extent. All those who threatened me have been thrown out, so you don’t have to worry… that’s what he said.”
“Dad?”
Vasilio, who was a little hesitant at my words, smiled and nodded.
“I see.”
“But I was worried about whether I could go see you or not. I suddenly appeared in your world where nothing happened… even though I’m your twin.”
“No, you can come and see me. It’s all of a sudden, but you’re my family. My precious family.”
My brother smiled and nodded, as if he liked the answer.
“Okay.”
“So what have you been doing? Is everything okay? Is there anyone bothering you?”
Smiling at my words, my brother shook his head and looked worried.
“There’s no way there’s anyone who wants to touch you when you’re the child of the Grand Duke. Everyone is so nice to me it feels like a mask.”
In the meantime, Cecilia came into the room with snacks prepared.
She poured warm milk and placed snacks on the table before leaving again.
“Shall we eat while we talk?”
“Huh?”
“I-If you’re busy, you can go. I just want to be with you today. I want to talk about many things with you.”
“Yes! We can talk for a long time. There’s a lot I want to say.”
As if he liked what I said, Vasilio slowly led me to the table, holding my hand tightly. It was a little awkward at first, but I felt comfortable spending time with my brother, as if we’ve known each other for a long time, or even on the same wavelength. It was fun to just talk about what we’ve been up to lately. Vasilio, who had been opening and closing his mouth, as if he was hiding something, finally said it.
“By the way, Bebe.”
“Yes?”
“Are you okay after last time?”
“Ah.”
It was about the secret I only told my brother. I thought it would work because we were twins, and my brother understood everything.
He forgot about how time would turn back and the amount of times I tried to save my mother.
“I was… I was always confident. I have the power to protect my mom. I’m strong.”
“I see.”
“But my strength is not always perfect. It’s strong, but it’s so strong that if I use that power, I can pass out.”
“I know. Are you okay?”
“Yes! I’m okay now…”
What should I do afterwards? I heard some strange stories… especially about what Mom and Dad talked about.
Dad is going to leave, and if something goes wrong, it could all be over.”
“My power… what should I do to be of help to someone?”
“Huh?”
“If I use my power, I’ll pass out… Ah…!”
“Huh?”
“My dad said you can’t measure your powers.”
“Is that so?”
“Yes. Magic powers aren’t supposed to be just accumulated in the body. Although the vessel is not large, power accumulates from a pond, to a river, to a sea. Then, when it erupts, the vessel is consumed by the power and passes out.
At that moment, I calmly told him what my dad said.
“I see.”
As if it had nothing to do with him, my brother nodded.
“But Dad also said that Vasilio has little power. It was impossible to measure power, but it wasn’t like that at the beginning. The day I met you, I felt some power for a few days and I was fine. That’s because it disappeared quickly.”
That was it. I finally found the solution.
