Chapter 446: The only thing a bride should think about is the wedding
"You shouldn’t move hastily with this kind of outfit, sweetling," D’Ara caught me when my feet got tangled in the long cape. Thankfully, I didn’t damage the outfit--wouldn’t be funny, really, if it ripped just three days before the wedding. She flicked my nose in warning before shifting her gaze toward my little boy. "Oh--look at you, Jade."
"Hehe..." Jade, who was usually jumping energetically, was now looking bashful and swayed his body like an innocent, shy boy. He looked at D’Ara with sparkling eyes, clearly asking for praise. "Jade did good?"
"Yes, yes you did," she picked up the startled Jade in her arms and stroked the reddened cheek. "So our sweetling had been adorable since his childhood days, mm? What a lucky brat my disciple is. How long can you keep this up, Jade?"
"Umm...if Jade ate Papa’s yummy candy in Mother’s Land, Jade can go for days!"
D’Ara raised her brows and I could see that she was genuinely amazed. "My, my--how impressive."
The little boy perked up even more. Even though many people had praised him for it, especially the druids, I guessed the one coming from the person who taught him just felt different. "Jade good?"
"Yes; such an excellent student you are," she didn’t skimp on her praise, stroking the branch necklace with interest.
"Hehe..."
Oh, looked at my little boy blushing and all. So meek that Natha would be flabbergasted looking at it. Funnily enough, this would be the most similar Jade would be to how I was as a child, since I was a really shy child. Being sick often deprived me of school days, so I didn’t have many chances to interact with other children.
I still prefer Jade being all energetic and cheeky, though.
"I didn’t know you’d be here today," I laughed and looked at D’Ara in wonder. She was just like Natha, suddenly appearing anywhere. But she was so high profile that I thought she would only come during the ceremony.
