Chapter 113: Not what they look like
When Coco got out of the bookstore, Jonathan had just arrived, with two paper bags in his arms as he raised an eyebrow at her.
"I think.. You bought a lot?" Jonathan said, sounding unsure due to Coco carrying the heavy looking bag easily.
"It has three books that Alhai requested, two cooking books for Heiren, two baking books for Zaque, and.. Well, I don’t know what to get for Quizen so I ended up buying him a book about music since he looks like he likes to sing." Coco hummed out, listing the things she bought for her mediators.
"You really take care of them, huh?" Jonathan raised an eyebrow and tilted his head.
"I don’t." Coco smiled at him before she started walking towards the way they came from, excited to go back to the inn as much as she enjoyed the familiar sight of the Yolo Village.
Jonathan blinked, not understanding what Coco meant by what she said.
She doesn’t take care of them, but she’s buying a lot of things for them? She went down to the worst part of their village just to confront him because her husband told her to? That’s not taking care of them?
If that’s not taking care of them, then what is?
Jonathan raised a free hand and scratched the back of his head, a look of exhaustion and acceptance crossing his features.
