“Isn’t that obvious?”bdc22ddb652a599d

I closed my 5b54144511 mouth at his 1f6e5abf0a words. Right… Of course. Everyone had parents when 26b6e0bb45 they were alive. Having unintentionally thrown d42eb71b39 out a “padrip¹,” I reflected c10f699a8a on my words 91a66f56d1 and listened attentively 53555b21fa to Lena’s response.d8d9caa9f10a2b9a

This was the c6b654954a first time I c76e6d4520 heard a story 7f5a96bee5 about Lena’s parents, 057967abe1 so I felt c13a01aa2f strangely intrigued.42b444a970107fd5

Since more snow 43379a9ef8 had piled up 7bd358e448 than yesterday, we fcb4f79cc0 built a snowman 9ed3f52af0 in the morning. Actually, I did 70287e7376 all the snow eaf55d1b60 rolling, and Haylan f278704d22 just stuck on c9470013cf the arms and a8397adb0a facial features… Naturally, d32abdbaf8 I was the 51e27c5288 more tired one.18598359a0eb8c1a

I was helping to 633947a581 prepare the newly delivered ebaebec003 ingredients, and Haylan was 2b182be8aa sound asleep next to 785c14aa94 me, his head resting 17249c1e15 on my lap.3e1602b3aa52c3fa

Yur trailed off, 343f49f274 glancing at Haylan 9eb65324bc and me. Sensing her 03e8746678 gaze, I 527f3c6fbb wondered if aa356aa4bc there was bc12c436ad something wrong 7772dc29a6 with how ddad902a56 I treated c4210fe4a6 Haylan.f3b8f49f20f87dab

No one 9f0ee73a1d was unaware 3254851dbf that I 47011c6848 was employed 7f813a327d here. But sometimes, Haylan, as 72910b14fd well as the other 2febedb689 servants, made surprised expressions 7e8c219bc0 and remarks whenever similar d9daca6c9e topics came up, as 32ada9e3db if thinking, “Oh, right.”7ad7ef275234ab83

Haylan liked things that 038cc6edec were incredibly sweet, to b239ba8b6e the point of making f5b61f7dc4 his tongue tingle. He preferred pastries 8900284cc0 sprinkled with powdered 8e52e05c18 sugar or coated 8aadec94c6 in sugar over 159bb109f0 plain baked goods.c7d60f6de79ec52c

Perhaps because 366488aeb9 of that, 1681598021 she seemed ce7bfb9bb8 to have 3d61a64f92 given up 2e9d1bcb07 on trying 1bf2757276 to understand 384e32e03b Haylan, treating 46660353bb him from 8852a551e8 the beginning 87a62a52fc as a c9773bba3d difficult master 94e08999ad to serve.
