Chapter 432 - A Civilized Visitor

"Ruru!"

Both the twins called out loudly as soon as they saw the person who walked inside the room. That tall frame clad in all black. Those green eyes stared at them with a beautiful smile gracing the person’s lips. Those short hair that fell over her forehead.

Who else would it be if not their one and only godmother?

"Hi, kids!" This was how Ru greeted them. She stepped closer to the bedside and both the twins immediately hugged her. "Aiya! How many times should I tell you both that Young Master Ru doesn’t like hugs!" Although those words came out of her mouth, she didn’t actually push them away. In fact, her own arms went around their small frames to hug them back.

"Who cares what you like?" questioned Bao.

"Well, we don’t," came the reply from Juan.

Ru rolled her eyes at them and ruffled their hair saying, "I see you’re growing very well. You even learned how to not take me seriously, eh?" Her eyes softened as she went on, "You should be happy, you’re the only ones who’d get to live after not taking me seriously." Of course, they were the only ones who could even talk to her like that. Even their father would often get a punch for trying to hug her. But everyone had exceptions, they were hers.

"We already know," they replied in unison.

"Of course, you do," she retorted. "Why else are you getting so arrogant with me?" She looked at Juan and leaned down to come face to face with her, "My dear Queen An, what a disaster you created this time." Juan pouted at her while she went on, "Just last night, you threatened me to come so that I can attend your school performance. I said I’d come. You didn’t have to take a visit to the hospital to call me."

Juan made a face at her, "But because of this, you came earlier than planned. Isn’t that better?"

"Better?" repeated Ru and shook her head while sighing. She had to put the Clan meeting on hold for this visit. But of course, she won’t be telling this to little Juan. It was her own problem and she had to solve it herself. "Right... It’s good to see you earlier!"

"Ruru, when did you come?" questioned Bao looking at her curiously.

"When you’re having that family moment," she replied honestly.

"Why didn’t you come inside then?"

"I’m this old and yet I get super mad when someone interrupts my time with my Papa, how can I ruin your moment?" said Ru not even feeling embarrassed that even at the age of thirty-something she was a daddy’s girl through and through! "Now, my Queen An, give me your hand and let me confirm something."

Juan obediently placed her hand into hers. Ru placed her fingers on her wrist to take her pulse. She had a concentrated expression on her face.

"Ruru, how come you entered through the door this time?" This question came from Juan.

Ru let her wrist go and cleared her throat, "I can be civilized once in a while." Both the twins chuckled at her response. "Anyway, your condition is actually better than what I was told. It’s good. You need lots of rest now. So, don’t think about anything and take a rest."

Juan held her finger and said, "I really thought mom might leave us. I was scared. I do get upset with her easily but she is still my mom. I do love her. I just can’t seem to tell her that often."

Ru smiled at her innocence and placed her hand on her small head as she said, "Last night, you’re really upset with your mom, right?" Juan lowered her head and nodded. "But after thinking about it, you did think that you weren’t supposed to talk like that to mom?" Juan nodded her head again. "It’s the same for mom. If your little brain can think so complicated, she is an elder. She has a million things running through her mind. She didn’t leave you. She just went home to take a break because she also felt hurt. She had been trying hard to make you feel proud of her. Since you both are so smart and exceptional, she has to work hard to make you feel like their mother is not lacking. So, it hurt her knowing that her efforts weren’t being appreciated. In the elder’s world, that’s very normal.

"That’s why she wanted to take a short break to calm herself. She distanced herself to not ruin what she already had. She knew if she stayed, her anger might get the best of her. That’s why she left. Everyone needs some time to themselves. It’s everyone’s right. Solitude is the best companion when you have a lot on your mind but it is equally the most dangerous companion when those lots of thoughts take a darker turn. Your mom was lacking some time to herself because she’s been trying hard to share her time with everyone she cared about."

"So, mom was not upset with me?" asked Juan. "She just went to clear her mind?"

Ru nodded her head, "Yes, she only wanted a break. And no, she wasn’t upset with you at all! How can a mother stay angry with her kids? You just said that you love her."

Juan nodded her head, "I do! I really do!"

"I know. But you should also know that your mom also loves you. Even more, than you love her." Juan looked at her without blinking. "But just as you can’t tell her how much you love her often, she can’t do it either." She stroked Juan’s hair as she went on, "However, you’re always on her mind."

"How are you so sure that I’m always on her mind?" questioned Juan.

Ru put out something from her jacket and placed it before her, "Read it yourself. You’ll know just how much your mom is always thinking about you in her own way."
