Chapter 81.2. Loneliness and Vigilance

-Miu’s Mom POV-

Yes. In this case.

“Shall we have hamburgers today?”

“I’m not Mii-chan.”

I clap my hands and tell him with a smile, and my husband laughs at me funny.

“A hamburger won’t fool me.”

“Oh well. What would my husband like then?”

I playfully look into my husband’s face. He puts his hand to his chin and looks serious. I’m embarrassed to be the one to see it. It’s often said that children are like their parents, and it is true, Miu is my husband’s child.

“That’s right! Let’s have curry with pork cutlets!”

He snaps his fingers with a big smile, and he sounds happy. I’m inwardly relieved that everything is okay for now. I am glad he doesn’t seem to be having a hard time, although I’m out of step because I thought the job was supposed to be hard.

“Katsu Curry. Oh, by the way, the tableware.”

I look awkwardly at the tableware, which is exactly what I’m putting away right now. I can’t even open the cardboard box anymore.

“Come to think of it, that’s what I was …… phew, I’m out of it. Miu looks like her mom, doesn’t she?”

“I thought she was your child?”

We look at each other and giggle. I love this kind of casual talk. It makes me happy.

“So, we’re going out to dinner today, right?”

“Yes, that’s right. I wonder if Miu has packed the boxes properly. I’m going to check on her.”

Miu is in her room cleaning up. I wonder if she’s okay. She’s a firm girl, but sometimes she slips up, so I get up to check on her.

I nod and go to Miu’s room as my husband resumes packing the rest of the boxes.

I nodded and went to Miu’s room. I could have made things easier if I had left the moving to the Takano family’s servants or the movers. However, I wanted to prepare for the move with the family alone. This would be the last time we would live in this house, and I wanted to remember this move as a memory.

With a slight sigh, I entered Miu’s room.

“Miu, are you making progress cleaning up?”

“Yes! I’m putting away my friends right now!”

With a twinkle in her ice-blue eyes, my sweet girl holds up a stuffed animal. She’s my darling daughter.

But a sense of caution arises in me. I may have finally caught her by the tail. I had been on guard all along.

“Mii-chan, you have a lot of stuffed animals stored away, don’t you?”

“Yes, Usa-chan is here. Fox-san is in this box.”

I’m soothed by my daughter’s innocence as she separates the stuffed animals, and puts them away in the cardboard box with a smile. But I shake my head and regain my composure. No, no, no. It’s a trap.

I have recently realized that Miu is innocent, but she is also cunning.

“So many stuffed animals. Mii-chan.”

“Hehe. Papa bought me a lot of them.”

My daughter loves stuffed animals. She has many stuffed animals in her room and loves them. She is a very childlike girl.

She smiles like fluffy cotton candy. But I was wary and noticed something strange.

“Hey, why are you putting stuffed animals in fragile boxes?”

I wondered when she brought the sticker for the fragile items. It was on one of the cardboard boxes. And for some reason, the stuffed animals are packed in those.

“And the most precious doggie!”

“Hmmm?”

I finally grabbed the tail. I smile and open the box. Inside were two cute stuffed puppies with front legs covering their faces. I’ve never seen a stuffed animal before.

“Mii-chan?”

“Yes, they’re cute, aren’t they? Be careful they’re fragile!”

“Hoho~?”

I lift the puppy, smiling at my daughter who is acting suspiciously. The fur is very soft and doesn’t smell like an animal. She must have been washing it surreptitiously.

I lift the stuffed puppy to my face and stare at it, but it doesn’t move an inch. I’m impressed at how well he’s been disciplined.

“Oh, by the way, mommy happens to have a treat that doggies love~”

I pull out of my pocket the beef jerky for puppies I always carry with me. The puppy noticed the smell and wagged his tail.

“Mii-chan?”

“I.. it’s, EIAI that’s been famous lately! Probably the type that responds to words!”

I laugh at Miu, who is still trying hard to fool me, wagging her hand and trying her best. The other puppy in the cardboard box jumps out and rubs its face against my leg.

“Kuun.”

“I wonder if it’s a stuffed animal that makes noises too?”

“Well, is it the newest model?”

Miu tilts her head and finally laughs uncontrollably, still trying her best to cover it up.

“It’s no use, Lupin-kun. They already know what you’re up to.”

“Curse you, Watson-kun!”

“Cute, Mii-chan.”

I laugh at her twisted reply and lightly pat Mii-chan on the head.

“I’ve been looking for them for a long time. I finally found them. You can’t keep them hidden, can you?”

I ruffled my beloved daughter’s hair, thinking she was innocent and out of it, trying to carry it as a fragile item.

We need to talk about pets.
