Lena wake's up in bed with tears again
"Jaek..."
She mumbles his name and wipes off her tears, then looked through her window. Noticing a man with raven-hair outside.
(He looks like a noble... Did we have visitors today?)
Lena gets out from her bed and changed her clothes. When she was about to leave her room, she look at herself in the mirror.
(Black hair, pink eyes...I really inherited my parents traits except I have a pink streak on the side of my hair...)
(Some nobles thought that I wasn't my father's biological child. Due to my pink streak...)
(My father didn't believe them and told me that it wasn't true...)
(He said "No matter what people says you are my daughter!!")
(...Besides that I never saw my mother being with another man other than my father.)
(She always takes care of us and was also busy working as a pharmacist.)
(When she heard the rumors... she threw a fit! And almost beat up the person who started the rumors to death...)
(It's a good thing father stopped her before she became a criminal...)
She began to remember her mother's words to that person who started the rumors.
________________________________________________________________________________
Amelia:"If you ever make Another disgusting rumor about my family...! I'll find you and cut your tongue off your mouth!! That way you will never talk about my family backs Ever again!
________________________________________________________________________________
(... I rarely hear rumors about me being a lover's child... Now that I think about it...It was a baseless rumor... I think my red red streak is pretty cool. When I recovered my memories in my past life...)
(I'm starting to feel more confidence in myself. Who cares what people says about me?)
(I want to live my life and not act as a coward who stays in her shell).
She thought to herself as she opened her door and went downstairs then she saw her parents sitting on the couch while talking with someone. Her father notice her and greeted her
James:"Lena, good morning"
Amelia:"Good Morning, Lena please have a seat"
She sat right next to her father and saw the person who was outside of her window.
???:"So this is your second daughter... she's quite beautiful I'd say".
The black-haired man said amusingly
Lena:"Father who is this?"
James:"This is George Dran he's the head of the Dran family. We were just discussing about our products and signing a contract with him".
She look at the man with black hair and green eyes.
Lena:(No wonder... He really looks like Edmund... his face and his hair color but his eyes are green...)
James:"And this is his wife Luna Dran, she's the duchess of the Dran family"
As her father finished explaining. She look at the woman who had blonde hair and crimson eyes. Making Lena astonish by her beauty.
Lena:(Wow! I didn't even notice her. She looks beautiful and her eyes really resembles Edmund's...!)
James:"Nice to meet you Lena Dunham. I've heard so much about you from your parents".
Lena:"N-nice to meet you".
She said nervously as she hugged her father's arm to hide her face
James:"My daughter is really shy and please be gentle to her"
Luna:"Your daughter is really adorable"
She said with a warm smile on her face.
James:"Thank you"
He thanked her as he patted his daughter's head.
Amelia:"So Miss luna how's thing's between you and your husband?"
Luna:"Oh... nothing, we just work and keep an eye out for our children"
She replied as she took a sip of her tea
Luna"What about you two?You guys must have a lot of energy.When making children~"
She said with a playful smirk on her face. Making the couple blushed at her sentence.
James:"Hey, our daughter is here!!"
He exclaimed as he covered his daughter's ear's
Amelia:"That's right!! Don't say those things in front of children!"
She exclaimed still feeling embarrassed at her statement
Luna:"Oops sorry..."
She looks down in shame
George:"Sorry about my wife"
Her husband apologized as he bow his head to them.
James:"Oh no!! Duke please raise your head!"
He said as he finally lets go of his daughter ears to stop him from bowing
Amelia:"Yeah it's fine... as long as you're wife won't say anything inappropriate in front of our children..."
She said with a dark smile on her face
George:"Y-yes"
He replied with a awkward smile
James:"So let's continue our discussion..."
He said trying to ease up the atmosphere.
George:"So about the contract will you sign it?"
He immediately composed himself trying to forget what just happened. Lena could only sweat dropped at their antic's
James:"Yes! We'll sign it!!"
He said without any hint of hesitation
George"Wonderful~I look forward to seeing you again Dunham".
He said with a satisfied look on his face
Amelia:"Yes! We'll look forward on seeing you again!''
She said with a innocent smile as if nothing happened between them.
Lena:(The couple seems nice... I can't believe their that villain's parents).
She thought as she watched them leave.As the two of them left the mansion, Lena ask her father about the contract.
Lena:"Father about the contract... Will you guys meet each other often?"
She ask feeling a bit concern
James:"Yes, Why? Is there something the matter Lena?"
Lena:"Nothing, just concern that's all~ Hahaha...''
James:"Okay... If theirs something you want to talk about please tell me".
He said feeling more suspicious of his daughter's behavior
Lena:(I wonder, should I be more prepared...? Alright, I'll go hunt some monsters and get more money for the academy that way I can survive).
She thought with a serious expression
Amelia:"Lena please call your siblings upstairs when I prepared breakfast''.
Lena:"Alright"
She immediately went upstairs.
Lena:(Even though my mother became a noble. She didn't let go of her habits when she was a commoner but she acts like a noble when she needs to be. My mother was strong. It's not surprising for father to fall in love with her hehe~)
She smiled at thought of her parents love life.
Lena:(I wonder... will I find someone to love as well? I'll find out sooner or later in the future...)
She immediately snap out of her thoughts as she went to her brother's room.
Lena:"BROTHER!!! WAKE UP!''
She shouted while knocking at his door. After a few minutes he opens it and greeted her half asleep.
Paul:"*Yawn* Good morning, Lena"
Lena:"Go downstairs or else mother will bring her frying pan"
He force his eyes wide opened and ran downstairs.
Lena:(Mission complete and finally the final boss).
She march towards her sister's room and began knocking at her door.
Lena:"SISTER-! WAKE UP!!"
She shouted but there's no answer
Lena:"...Still won't wake up huh?".
She opens the door and saw her sister still curling up in her sleep. She went to her bedside then whispered to her ear in a singsong tone.
Lena:"Louise, please wake up or else mother will bring her frying pan~"
Louise opens her eyes wide and ran out of her room.
Lena:"Mission complete!...That was easy, I should've have use this method from the start!".
She said as she went downstairs.
Why Lena threaten them using her mother with a frying pan. Well that's because Amelia once use her flying pan to make a loud noises when the two of them were still sleeping in their rooms. They became quite traumatized ever since that incident.
***
While they were eating breakfast Amelia began to throw up. Making everyone in the table look at her with concern
James:"AMELIA!! Are you ok?"
Amelia:"Yes... I'm just feeling a bit dizzy".
She said looking a bit pale
Then they heard leaks. They look down and saw Amelia was leaking.
James:"The baby is coming...! Someone call a doctor!!!".
"Yes sir!!
The maids obeyed and ran out of the room. Amelia was holding her stomach, groaning in pain.
James:"Amelia, please hold my hand".
He immediately extended his hand and Amelia grabs it tightly.
James"Ouch...!"
He winch at the pain but endure it for his wife
"The doctor is here!!!"
One of the maids appeared with a doctor
"Please give us a room"
James:"Yes, I'll lead the way!".
He immediately carries his wife in his arms as they left the dining room
Louise:"Will mother be okay?"
Paul:"I'm sure mother will be alright right, Lena?"
Lena:"Yeah... She'll be alright. After all she's the strongest mom we ever have right?"
Louise/Paul:"Right!"
Sophie who was watching the scene, smiled fondly at them.
(It's a good thing that the children aren't anxious. Thank goodness...)
She thought in relief as she walks towards them.
Sophie:"Come on children~we'll be waiting outside of their room. Once their done please don't cause trouble for them ok".
Louise/Paul/Lena:"Alright".
The three of them exclaimed
Sophie:"Please follow me children".
She said while heading towards the room that their parents went and the followed by Lena, Paul, and Louise.
***
They were waiting outside of the room. Lena was resting her head at Sophie's lap and Sophie was stroking her hair to comfort her. While the other two children were just talking to each other betting on whether or not their new sibling is a girl or a boy.
They saw their father outside of the room looking quite exhausted.
Sophie:"How is she?"
James:"She's fine"
He said with a smile on his face
Lena:"What about the baby?"
James:"The baby is healthy".
Both of them sigh in relief. The other two children who were quiet just now came up to their father.
Louise/Paul:"Father!!!".
Making James startled and turned to them with a tired look on his face.
James:"What?"
Louise/Paul"The baby!Is it a boy or a girl?"
James:"It's a girl".
Louise:"Yay, I win! I'll get extra snacks from you Paul".
Paul:"Darn it, tsk...".
Lena:"Can we see the baby?"
James:"Of course! But please make sure to be quiet the baby is asleep..."
Lena:"Ok! Come on let's go"
She said in a soft tone
Louise/Paul:"Alright!''
Lena:"Shush"
Louise/Paul:"Oh... sorry"

They went inside the room and saw their mother cradling their baby sister.
Louise/Paul/Lena:"Mother!"
Amelia turned to them and a warm suddenly in her face
Amelia:"Come and see your little sister"
They walk towards them and saw their little sister face.
Louise:"So cute!!!"
Paul:"She looks like father...a girl version of him".
He said blunly
Paul:"Don't you thinks so too lena?"
Lena:"..."
Paul"Lena?"
Lena didn't respond. She just looked at her little sister with a impassive face
Amelia:"Lena...Is there something wrong?"
She immediately snapped out of her dazed
Lena:"Oh! Nothing just feeling a bit down...that's all."
Amelia:"Are you sure?".
Lena:"Yeah... anyway what's her name?"
She immediately change the subject. Amelia still feels concern for her daughter, but brushed it off to answer her question.
Amelia:"Her name is Mona Dunham"
Louise:"Mona... that's a great name!! Hello mona~ this is your big sister!".
Paul:"She's asleep you know"
He said bluntly
Louise:"Oh right...".
She scratch her head while laughing awardly
Lena:"Mother can I...hold her?"
Amelia:"Of course, but please be careful okay"
She nodded then she gently scooped her up and holding her close to her face.
Lena:(So cute...!)
She smiled fondly at her then eventually mona woke up and started crying. Due to panic, Lena immediately gave her back to her mother.
Amelia:"It's ok, it's ok".
She began soothing her baby as James came inside and sat on her bedside.
James:"You guys should play outside".
Louise/Paul:"Ok"
Both of them said and went outside but Lena didn't followed them. She just stared at mona with a nonchalant expression
James:"Lena, are you alright?"
Lena:"Oh! sorry....I'll go outside and play".
She said and left.
Silence suddenly spread the whole room. The first one who broke the ice in the room was Sophie
Sophie:"Don't you think that my lady is acting a bit...off lately".
James:"She is acting a bit off...but, we can't pressure with questions! It'll only scare her ".
Amelia:"Your right...but What are we going to do?"
James:"We'll just wait for her to tell us personally...that's the only thing we can do for now...".
All of them we're silent but, they quietly agreed. Thinking it's the best for her so they left the topic on hold.
***
Lena was outside laying on the grass looking at the sky reminiscing about her past memories with her brother.
"Jaehyun! Look,this is your brother jaek".
The young woman said to her. Jaeh saw her mother cradling a baby boy in her arms.
Jaehyun:"He looks so cute! Can I hold him mom?
"Sure...But please don't drop him ok?"
Jaeh:"Ok!".
She gently holds him close to her face.

Jaehyun:"Kyaa! So cute!"
She squealed and started hugging then Jaekyun began cupping her cheeks then started giggling
Jaehyun:"Oh my god! Mom, He looks like an angel!!"
"Wow! He must really like you Jaehyun~".
The man said as he sat next to his wife
"Jaeh...please be a good sister to him okay?".
The woman said to her daughter
Jaeh"Yes! I will become a good sister to him!!!"
She said as she starts nuzzling her brother cheeks.
Jaeh:"I promise I'll protect you from now on okay, little brother?"
She said and nuzzles him again as Jaek kept on giggling. The couple smiled at them and thought
(We are blessed with adorable children)
***
She couldn't help but cry at the memory of her brother
Lena:"Jaek"
She mumbles his name and immediately started wiping off her tears
???:"LENA!"
Then someone called her, Lena turned around to see Louise headed towards her
Louise:"What are you doing here? And... what's wrong with your face?!"
Lena:"Oh it's nothing..."
Louise"If you say so... come on it's lunch time".
She grabs her hand and drags her back to their mansion
***
AT NIGHT
They were having dinner, everyone was enjoying their food until...
???:"Hello~ Everyone!"
A blond-headed woman suddenly slammed the door open and shouted on their dining room.
James/Amelia:"Duchess Luna!?".
The couple exclaimed
James:"Wha- what are you doing here duchess?''
He ask with a nervous smile on his face.
Luna:"Oh... I'm just dropping by to see how are you all doing. When I heard the about your new family member I wanted to congratulate you personally"
James:"... I see"
Luna:"So where's the baby I want to see her!"
George:"Now, now, Luna please excuse my wife".
???:"Mother please calm down..."
A young boy with blonde hair and green eyes suddenly appeared beside them.
George:"Sorry for the intrusion".
James"It's fine... please have a seat".
He immediately signal the maids to take them to their seats.
Amelia:"Should we ask our chef to make some food for you?"
Luna"Oh, no...! Besides we already ate so please give us tea instead".
She said as she wave her off dismissively.
Luna:"Is she perhps Mona? she looks so adorable...!".
She look close at Mona who was being cradle by Amelia in her arms
Amelia:"Yes, thank you!".
James:"Is that your son?"
He ask as he stared at the boy
George:"Yes, This is our eldest son Jason, he's about the same age as your eldest daughter Louise by the way. Jason please greet them".
Jason:"Yes, father! Hello everyone, my name is Jason Dran, eldest son of the Dran family, it's a pleasure to meet you all".
He stood up from his seat and gracefully bow to them. Making everyone stare at with admiration while Lena, was staring at him warily.
James:"Wow! Your son is quite mature for his age...wait! Where's your second son?"
George:"He's at the royal castle, having tea with the princess".
James:"Ah... I see".
Suddenly he felt intense stares at him. He look around and saw all his kids are staring at him
James:"Oh right!*Ahem*Please introduce yourselves everyone".
Louise:"N-nice to meet you, I'm Louise Dunham".
She said as she bow her head, nervously towards them
Paul:"I-it's a pleasure to meet you, I'm Paul Dunham".
He stutter his words while sweating bullets at them, as he bow.
Lena:"It's a pleasure to meet your acquaintance, Even though we already met like this morning".
Unlike her older siblings Lena calmly introduce herself to them with a smile
George:"Yes, It's also nice to meet your acquaintance!".
He greeted them back as he took a sip of his tea
Luna"It's must be nice to have a daughter... Darling~can we..."
He spits his tea and was completely red like a tomato
George:"DON'T SAY SUCH THING'S IN FRONT OF CHILDREN!!!"
James:"Everyone... please forget what you just heard...".
The children nodded at him
Lena:(Since, when did they become so close?).
She thought as she watched her parents talking with the Dran's. She immediately switched her attention towards Jason.
Lena:(So this is Edmund's older brother Jason. He appeared in the game when his brother was about to get exiled... His element is lightning if I remember correctly... I can't believe I ended up meeting the villain's older brother before going to the academy!)
She thought as she narrowed her eyes at him.
Louise:"Lena, why are you staring at master Jason? Do you perhaps have a crush on him!?".
She immediately turned to her with a look of shock and exasperation in her face.
Lena:"W-WHAT!!? NO WAY!! HE'S WAY OUT OF MY LEAGUE!".
Everyone stared at her.
Lena:"Umm... I'll go to my room now, good night!".
***
Lena immediately left the dining room and went upstairs to her room then locks her door. Not wanting to see anyone
"I want to throw myself into the abyss!"
She murmured as she throw herself in bed and after a few minutes, she held her pillow on her face then started screaming.
"Let's forget about it And sleep".
She closes her eyes. Thinking she should just forget about today's incident.
"Tomorrow is going to be a better day...".
She said to herself as she went to Dreamland
