03: A LITTLE ABOUT THE PAST 02
I heard from my mother that my father had a wife and other children besides me. But after all, how could a 3 year old child understand this?
I, who couldn’t grasp the situation well, was taken to the estate alone. I stood firmly in the parlour.
Before my eyes was a beautiful woman with lightly wavy red hair. She stared at me coldly. This was when I knew that the woman in front of me was Furore-sama. The boy, with reddish brown hair, standing behind Furore-sama, as if she was protecting him, was also staring at me coldly… It was my older brother Guerlain. There were also two girls hiding in Furore-sama’s dress with the same reddish brown hair… The one with almond-shaped eyes was older sister Catherine and the one with droopy eyes was older sister Rosalie.
My father had light brown hair and my mother light blonde, so I had straight caramel hair.
I never had the opportunity to play with children my age, I could only watch them from afar so I must have looked at my siblings with great interest. Still, I had never seen anyone with red hair up close and my unsightly gaze quickly cause Furore-sama displeasure.
