Chapitre 5: Father and Child
[ Past: Hundred years ago...]
"From now on we will call you Zhen-Zhen because you are precious to me and your mother." Zu Wan softly said as he gave his daughter a name.
As if she understood what her father just said the child smiled as she raised her little hands to grasp her father's thumb.
"It looks like she is happy with the name that you gave her, Wanwan." Eva giggled as she saw her daughter's bright smile.
Zu Wan felt proud after hearing that. "Of course, it was from her loving father, after all, so she really likes it. Am I right my little angel?"
'What an irony, I am a demon and I am calling my daughter little angel.' Zu Wan laughed inside from that thought.
Eva just shook her head as she stared at his husband who was smiling again foolishly. He never failed to amuse her as time goes by.
Several months had passed and their little cute demoness... or rather the little cute angel was growing very well.
Eva was amazed to see Zhen-Zhen developed and grew so fast compare to other normal children.
After three months, the child could stand alone without their help.
After four months, the child could already walk by herself.
And now that Zhen-Zhen was already five months, it seemed like she could understand already what adults were talking about.
Sometimes, she could see her daughter staring at them when She and Zu Wan were having a conversation.
Zhen-Zhen looked like listening attentively and could understand what they were saying.
She felt envious of her husband because It looked like her daughter was much closer to her father than her.
Sometimes, she would catch them staring with each other as if they were talking using their minds alone. She wondered what is happening between her husband and child.
Unknown to her, the reason why Zhen-Zhen was very fond of her father was because of their secret bonding that Eva did not know about.
The father and child were doing something behind Eva's back especially if she let the father and child roam around the mountain without her presence.
"Fa-fa fly...fly...fly!" Zhen-Zhen told her father Zu Wan as she raised her arms to him, giving him the signal to carry her.
Zu Wan chuckled as he saw her cute little angel doing that.
"Do you really want to fly with father again?" Zu Wan asked her.
Zhen-Zhen nodded vigorously as she smiled at her father very sweetly.
Zu Wan could not contain his laughter seeing his little cute daughter pleading at him like that.
"Oh, my cute little angel... you are so adorable." Zu Wan said as he pinched her lovely face.
"Fa-fa, fly!!Sky!!" Zhen-Zhen uttered again as she pointed out the sky to her father. She looked very eager and excited.
Zu Wan just looked at her helplessly.
"Fly!Fly!Fly!" This time Zhen-Zhen insisted as she felt a little bit impatient since Zu Wan did not move from his spot.
Zu Wan burst out into another wave of laughter. Her impatience was one of their common behavior, truly the father and child were alike.
"Alright, we will fly into the sky together with those birds if you completed the task that I gave you today Zhen-Zhen."
Zhen-Zhen just nodded at him, feeling so hopeful.
"Okay, show me what you've got my little angel. If father is satisfied with your performance today then I will fulfill your wish." Zu Wan said as he encouraged her.
"Are you ready to show to me what you have learned today Zhen-Zhen?"
"Uhm" Zhen-Zhen mumbled as she nodded at him once again. Zu Wan could see the determination in her blue eyes.
The cute little angel who looked so excited and eager a while ago was now having a serious expression.
She was concentrating as she stared intently at her two little hands. Zu Wan was just observing her with a smile flashed on his face.
Seconds later, something as big as an apple appeared on her little hands, an orange light dancing in both her hands.
It was an orange fire. Zhen-Zhen was able to release one of her power.
Zu Wan let out a soft chuckle as he watched his daughter successfully completed the task that he had given her.
Zhen-Zhen looked at her father with a triumphant smile that says 'Father, I've done it. You should fulfill my wish today.'
"Good job Zhen-Zhen. You are a fast learner. Fa-fa is so proud of you." Zu Wan praised her as he pinched again her two lovely cheeks.
Zhen-Zhen jumped into joy as she was excited to fly again in the sky together with her father.
This was the type of playtime and bonding moment of the father and child behind Eva's back.
Zu Wan was slowly teaching her to discover and control her power.
He knew that his daughter, even though half-human and half-demon, would eventually acquire some extraordinary powers.
She was a daughter of a demon god after all.
