Chapter 674: Side Story 3. Stellar Blossom - 9
When the morning came, and people gathered in the sitting room to get ready for breakfast, half of them either had red or swollen eyes.
Han Shin was easily the worst of all of them; he cried so much in his room that Reina, affected by her pregnancy hormones, also cried. Seeing his wife cry because of him made the healer feel even more guilty and cried even more that Zein even came to check on them because of the noise.
After throwing a comment that they were just like Kar and Asa that afternoon, the couple started calming down, and Zein came back to his own room to find Bassena hugging the twins with red eyes. The esper had been holding himself since the afternoon, and he could barely calm down by holding his sons and putting them to sleep.
And from how Radia looked that morning, Zein concluded that the night also wasn’t very good on that side.
The one who looked the best among them was actually the cause of all the emotional distress. Han Joon looked like his usual self, smiling at the twins who were no longer crying. Kar pulled on Zein’s hair so his Dada could bring him closer to his Uncle Joon and performed his own examination by touching the man’s forehead.
It was as cold as usual. Deeming it as normal, Kar nodded in satisfaction.
"Haha--you’re not upset anymore, little guy?" Han Joon ruffled the older twin’s hair, and then the younger one’s when Asa jumped in Bassena’s arms, asking for a pat.
"You look...like usual," Zein commented. "I have no idea if it was good or bad."
"Isn’t it good that I don’t get worse?" Han Joon said and, after reading the mood in the room, smiled before turning to the butler. "Let’s have breakfast outside. It’s nice and cool today."
"Yes, Sir."
The butler readily bowed and turned around to prepare the request, seemingly regarding Han Joon’s words the same as Radia’s. But then again, the summoner didn’t say anything. Zein realized it was Radia’s habit when he was sulking, which rarely happened unless Joon was around.
