Chapter 34: Chapter 32
A few days later, Mia saw the news about Taylor in the newspaper. He stood in front of the camera wearing a space suit and loudly expressed his gratitude to those who had helped him, especially the lifelines that had helped him survive when he was alone in space. Without him, without them, he would never be here now.
Although Mia is happy about this, she has more important things to do now, yes, that is to think about whether she should continue to stay in Wayne Manor.
Although Bruce and Aunt Chloe didn't push her, they just told her that they would completely respect her choice, whether she wanted to stay in Gotham or return to Texas to continue living with her aunt Together, they will all agree. But this still bothered Mia.
She sat irritably by the fountain and looked in the direction of the door. When she first came here, she never thought that she would have such troubles. At that time, she almost just wanted to spend this summer vacation quickly, return to Texas, and return to Aunt Chloe, but now... Mia sighed when she thought of this.
Sometimes she feels like a greedy dragon, oh, no, she shouldn't say that, she has seen dragons, they are not all greedy, at least Ares is not like this.
But when she was asked to name another creature represented by greed, Mia really couldn't say it for a while, so she could only sigh heavily again, and secretly swore in her heart that she must wait until the new semester. Study hard so that you can use better words to describe the current situation.
But when it comes to the new semester, the conversation returns to whether she should stay in Gotham or return to Texas.
She had asked Aunt Chloe and Bruce about this matter, trying to get some advice from them, but they didn't say anything, so she called Mixie again to ask her. She is the most mature one among them and she always gives them good advice.
But this time, Mi Xi was silent for a long time after receiving her call before saying, "You have to decide this matter yourself." "
But I feel so entangled now. I want to stay with Bruce and the others, and they They are a great family, but I can't let go of Aunt Chloe, so why can't they live together? Just like you and your grandma," Mia complained. She sat on the bed and buried her whole body into the pillow, and the soft touch relieved her irritability a little.
"But it's a pity that they don't live together." Mishy said with a shrug. "And it seems that neither Brucie nor your aunt would move to Texas for my grandma like my mother did." ."
"You're right, Mi Xi, they won't move." Mia muttered after hearing her words, and she lay back dejectedly, "So now I can only let this problem continue to torture me. I..."
Then this question tortured Mia for several days. She jumped out of her chair irritably, and when she was about to return to the house, a car suddenly stopped at the door of Wayne Manor.
At first, Mia thought it was Bruce's visitor. After all, as the richest man in Gotham and Bruce's baby, people would come to Wayne Manor to look for him almost every day.
Some of them are entrepreneurs who want to try their luck with business plans, and some will call themselves Bruce's children or brothers and sisters. Even though they have bright blond hair or look older than Bruce, there are more Or women, all kinds of women came to this mansion, some of them had some ambiguities with Brucie, and some had no relationship at all.
So when the young woman got out of the car, Mia's first thought was that Bruce had another visitor. But I didn't expect that this time the other party wasn't here to see Baby Brucie. She walked right up to Mia and asked her mother's name.
This made Mia stunned. She glanced hesitantly at Alfred and Bruce who had just come out of the house, and then looked at the woman standing in front of her. After coming over for a while, she said her mother's name.
Then she heard a bloody story about love, betrayal and family from the woman's mouth.
Probably her mother was actually a princess of a country. She fell in love with a man when she left the country to study in another place
. For him, her mother was willing to give up her inheritance rights and leave the country to be with him.
"It turns out that man just coveted the identity of your mother, my aunt. He abandoned her the day after she decided to give up her inheritance rights. And because your mother felt ashamed, she decided to leave the royal family and live alone. Leave Genovia and come to the United States." The woman who claimed to be the princess of Genovia, also named Mia, said.
She sat in front of her. At this time, the venue for their chat had moved from the entrance of the mansion to the living room. Alfred placed tea and snacks in front of them, which was Mia's favorite cake.
Bruce sat next to her, his eyes narrowed slightly and his expression looked a little sleepy. It was a little too early compared to his usual wake-up time.
"I'm sorry that we changed the time temporarily, Mr. Wayne." Mia said apologetically when she saw his appearance.
She didn't care about this, or it should be said that this should be in line with the image of Brucie's baby. The media once joked that if you want Baby Brucie to agree to something, it is best to find him before ten o'clock in the morning, because at this time, he will most likely be nodding because he is sleepy.
So a few days ago, she decided to return to the United States to study. When contacting the Wayne family's housekeeper, she specifically chose the afternoon time. Unexpectedly, the principal was a little too upset about the fact that a princess from a country decided to come to their school to study. Attention - But seriously, who would not pay attention to this matter? You must know that she is the princess of a country and will inherit the throne and become the queen in the future. If you are not careful, it will cause a diplomatic accident.
So he had to meet with them in advance and talk to each other. There was no choice but to postpone Mia's meeting with her cousin in the future.
"It doesn't matter, Princess Mia, it's my honor for you to come." Bruce said. He picked up the coffee in front of him and tried hard to look sober, but in fact he was looking at the princess in front of him through the cup.
The transformation of this "ugly duckling" into a swan became public knowledge due to the media's publicity. A girl who lived in San Francisco, so ordinary that it could even be said to be somewhat transparent, suddenly became the next heir to the throne of Genovia.
Her past was published in newspapers, and her classmates rushed to be interviewed by reporters, telling them how good friends they were with Mia, but in fact they had not spoken a few words at all... Her life
was The interruption and the destruction of the original peace made Mia feel irritable at the time. She didn't want to be a queen, and she didn't think she had the ability to manage a country. However, after reading the letter her father left for her, Finally, she decided to take up the responsibility and become the heir to the throne.
At that time, Bruce didn't pay too much attention to this matter. He just glanced at it casually and then continued to investigate the Riddler. Unexpectedly, this kind of thing also happened to his daughter - Mi On Ya.
Even though he knew it was because of her ability and that everything would be back to normal tomorrow, it still gave Bruce a headache.
But Mia has no idea what Bruce is thinking. She just feels happy. After all, which girl doesn't have a princess dream? Even if this dream only lasts for one day, it's still great!
She swayed her legs unconsciously (the height of the sofa was just right for her, but since she always liked to sit at the very back so that she could lean on the cushions, the height of the sofa was appropriate, but it didn't seem to be So appropriate), looking at Mia with eyes full of expectation, "So," she paused when she said this, and after thinking for a while, she continued to ask, "What does Victoria look like?" "
Yes. Novia." Mia corrected with a smile, tilting her head slightly as if thinking, "It's a beautiful country, everyone is friendly, and everyone is very welcoming." "That sounds like it
. Great!" Mia shouted happily. She had never been to Genovia, in fact she had never been anywhere.
After all, her mother is always very busy at work, and she has no time or energy to take her on a trip. Most of the time they would just take advantage of the weekends and set up a tent in the living room to pretend to be camping.
The door of the tent is usually facing the TV. They will wrap themselves in blankets, prepare a bunch of snacks and sit in the tent watching the TV series they missed before. Sometimes after finishing the snacks, their mother will ask her to go to the kitchen to get some more.
Then at lunchtime, to get into the camp spirit, Mom would order a large pizza and tell her that they were camping so they couldn't cook in the kitchen.
Although Mia likes to eat pizza and watch TV with her mother, this camping trip always makes her feel that something is wrong. It is not like what she has seen on TV before.
But no matter what, as long as she is with her mother, it will be fine. She loved being around her, no matter what.
Maybe if she had time later and she happened to see her mother, maybe she could go to Genovia with her, Aunt Chloe and the others. She'll love that place.
"Indeed, Genovia is a great country." Mia nodded after hearing her words. Although she hasn't been in Genovia for a long time, it doesn't stop her from feeling that her country is great.
"But I want to ask, do you want me to return to Genovia?" Mia asked. She was a little frustrated when she said this, obviously thinking of that problem. Now that the summer vacation is half over, she has not made a decision yet.
In fact, besides that, there is that blessing. Mia has been thinking about this issue since Zatanna left that day. On the one hand, she hopes that she can continue to have this blessing, so that she can continue those adventures. She loves adventure.
But on the other hand, she hopes that the characters she experiences will only appear what she wants, such as Superman, or an animal trainer, etc. These make her feel great, not only can she recognize more people, and will not go to another universe. She doesn't like this.
Most of the time she just wants to be with her friends, whether they are friends who appear because of blessings or her real friends, she just wants them to be with her for the treasure-whether it is a piece of candy or anything else. Yes, the meaning of adventure has never been to take risks, but to be with your friends and family, to know more people, to see more scenery, and perhaps to help those in need.
"No, whether you want to return to Genovia or not is all up to you," Mia shook her head. "I just went back to the United States to go to school, so I want to come and see you." ""
Go to school? Does the princess also need to go to school? "Mia asked curiously. In her understanding, princesses should stay in the palace and be taught by separate royal teachers, rather than going to places like schools. "
Of course," Mi Ya smiled and nodded. She looked at the child in front of her who was looking at her with a puzzled expression. Her legs were shaking unconsciously and her whole body began to lean towards her. Her expression was full of curiosity.
"I need to go there to learn knowledge, such as how to manage a country," Mia thought for a while and said, "and how to become a qualified queen, and how to maintain royal status and so on..." "
Really? "Mia asked with her eyes wide open. That sounded much more interesting than Chinese and mathematics.
But it was a pity that when Mia saw her like this, she just suppressed a smile and told her that of course it was not true. In fact, she chose finance. Major, this will allow her to better understand Genovia's financial situation and manage the country. As for what she just said, those are things that she will only start to learn after she returns to Genovia after graduation.
This makes Mia inevitably felt a little disappointed. She curled her lips and put a small piece of cake into her mouth. The soft cake and sweet cream always made her happy to the greatest extent. "
Okay, that sounds delicious. Not as interesting as the queen tutorial. "Mia said with a shrug. But soon her topic jumped to another place, such as why Mia agreed to become a princess in the first place.
Of course she also knew Mia's story. That incident made the whole school crazy. According to legend, all the children ran home that day and asked their parents if they also had a Queen Grandma, but unfortunately the answer they got was a capital "NO!" ", including Mia of course.
"Don't you want to leave your mother and friends? "Mia continued to ask, looking at her with inquiring eyes
.
But just as she didn't want to leave Aunt Chloe, Mia certainly had hesitation about this matter, "But I need to do this," she sighed Said in a tone. At that time, her father died in an accident, and there was no next heir to the throne of Genovia. She needed to shoulder her responsibilities as a princess, just like her father. In the letter he wrote to her,
he Tell her that he originally wanted to give up his identity as heir and leave Genovia to live with her mother, just like his sister, but he couldn't do that. Of course, he wasn't worried that her mother would be like him. The man left him just like that, they were in love, he didn't think she would do this, he just couldn't let go of his responsibilities. He was the
prince of Genovia, his people loved him, his country raised him, he couldn't Just for the sake of his own love, he abandoned his responsibilities.
"That's my responsibility. "Mia continued, "As for my mother and friends, Genovia is not far from San Francisco. If I miss them, I can come back to see them at any time. "
That sounds really good. " "Mia nodded, and her thoughts began to wander again. She was wondering if she could go back to see Aunt Chloe and Misty at any time if she stayed in Gotham, just like Mia. But after thinking about it
, After the meeting, she realized why she had assumed that she would stay in Gotham instead of returning to Texas.
"And they can also go to Genovia to visit me. In fact, I was there with my friends this summer. Spent in the castle of Genovia. "Mia continued with a smile.
"Can Mishy and Sheldon also come to Wayne Manor, Dad? "Mia immediately turned to look at Bruce after hearing her words. She hadn't seen them for a while.
And Bruce pretended to wake up from his sleepiness after suddenly hearing someone calling him, "Of course, Mia . "He said to her gently, but the sleepiness in his tone could not be dissipated.
He picked up the coffee in front of him again, preparing to wake himself up, but he ended up yawning hugely.
This made Mia couldn't bear it. She laughed out loud, and looked at Bruce with a smile, "It seems it's time for us to leave, Mr. Wayne. "
No," Bruce shook his head awkwardly. He stood up from the sofa and looked at her with an apologetic expression, "You should stay and continue chatting with Mia, but maybe I need to leave early." "At this point, Bruce yawned again. He took his coffee and left the living room, leaving the entire room to the two ladies.
Seeing Bruce leave, Mia instantly relaxed. She leaned her whole body on the sofa, which made her look a little less like a princess, but like a beautiful girl next door that can be seen everywhere.
But if it must be said, what should a princess look like? Dignified, elegant and generous? Smiling all the time? Just like what is described in fairy tales? That just sounds so tiring.
"It looks like your friends can also spend this holiday with you." Mia said with a smile.
"Of course, I'm going to call her later." Mia cheered, but soon her expression turned depressed again. She looked at the princess in front of her hesitantly, and after a while Then he asked tentatively, "Speaking of which, can I ask you a question?"
"Of course." Mia nodded. She picked up the tea cup in front of her, and the smell of black tea filled the air.
"Just... I have a friend recently," Mia said after a pause. She didn't notice the suppressed smile on Mia's face when she heard her say "friend." For adults, saying "I have a friend" is almost equivalent to admitting that it is me.
"She originally lived with her aunt, but recently she was found by her father. He was very good to her, and her brother was also very good to her, so now she has been struggling with whether she should continue to stay there. Her aunt is still living with her father," Mia continued. She didn't know the subtext between adults.
"That sounds really confusing." Mia said, suppressing a smile. "But unfortunately, I can't answer this question. It needs to be solved by yourself, Mia." "That's
my friend's problem." Mia
shouted.
"Okay, okay, your friend," the other party shrugged, looking disapproving, "But she needs to make her own decision, but I think since she is so entangled, she probably already has the answer in her heart. "
Why do you say that?" Mia asked doubtfully.
"This is something she has to ask herself." Mia answered, picking up a pillow and holding it in her arms.
"That's too cunning." Mia frowned and complained, but the other party didn't care about it. She put a small piece of cake into her mouth. The soft taste made her want to ask the chef from the palace to come over to that person. The housekeeper wanted to learn something, but out of her final conscience, she still said, "But since he hesitates, doesn't it mean that her father is already comparable to her aunt on her side?" "But they are both
. Isn't her family?" Mia added, biting her fork unconsciously. If Aunt Chloe were here she would definitely ask her to stop quickly, but since she is not here now, no one will come. Correct her.
"Okay, okay, I'm really not suitable to enlighten children," Mia muttered. She sat up from the sofa and looked at the girl in front of her, whose situation was somewhat similar to hers before, but not completely similar.
At that time, she was afraid that she would not be able to shoulder her responsibilities as a princess and that she would be disappointed by those who had expectations of her.
But if I have to say it, Mia is so entangled now because she is afraid that her family will be disappointed in her. She is afraid that if she chooses one of them, the other person will feel sad about it.
Even if she understands that this is most likely just her personal idea, they are her aunt (in Mia's eyes, her aunt is omnipotent, she always knows what she wants) and Batman, they will not do it for Feeling sad about this little thing.
But that feeling of not being chosen can still make them feel bad. And Mia doesn't want this, she wants to make everyone happy.
"But none of them will be disappointed with you." Mia sighed.
It was her mother who supported her when she wanted to escape. She gave her a hug and told her that whether she chose to be a princess or not, she would be her daughter and her pride.
So she reached out and rubbed Mia's head, telling her that they were her relatives, no matter what decision she made, they would support her, and no one would leave her because of her decision.
So as soon as the princess left, Mia called her aunt and she asked her in a low voice if she would be disappointed in her if she wanted to stay in Wayne Manor and stay with Bruce.
Chloe was stunned after hearing Mia's words. She didn't know why she had such thoughts. In her impression, Mia was always happy and carefree, and she didn't seem to think about such things.
hesitantly. She really didn't know whether her decision was right, and she didn't know what it would bring to herself, but she knew that her family would always be there. Support her decision. They loved her as much as she loved them.
When Mia got up from bed the next day,
she found that her room had completely changed. Things that she didn't know the use of were piled together, and next to them was a notebook.
Mia recognized that notebook. It was a notebook she used specifically to record the wishes of ghosts. She originally put it in her suitcase and never took it out, but somehow it suddenly appeared here today.
She picked up the notebook and flipped through it. In addition to the wishes she had written down before, there were many new wishes on it.
They were written neatly on the paper one by one, and most of the wishes had a small check mark at the end. That's a sign it's done.
Seeing this, Mia suddenly realized what role she was today, a ghost wish-fulfiller, and this meant that she could see ghosts and her mother today.
Thinking of this, Mia ran outside excitedly. She couldn't wait to find her mother and wanted to tell her everything that had happened these days. She would tell her that she decided to stay with her father, and that she would leave behind that ability so that she could help more people, but more importantly, she missed her.
But as soon as she left the room, she saw two ghosts. They were wearing dresses and suits, and their eyes were full of kindness when they looked at her.
Mia knew about them, both of them would always appear in the newspapers when she was looking for news about Bruce.
They are Martha and Thomas, Bruce's parents, her grandparents.
