章 43: Forty four

DAISY POV

I walked in on the children having breakfast.

"Good morning my babies." I kissed each of them.

"Good morning, Mommy," Rigel replied.

"Good morning, Mommy," Rhea replied.

"So are you ready for school?"

"Yes." they both replied.

Rigel's reply was filled with enthusiasm while Rhea couldn't care less.

"Rhea, how are your fighting lessons going?"

She brightened up immediately.

"Fine mummy, my fighting lessons are so cool."

"One of these days, I will come to watch you fight and see how you are progressing."

"There isn't any need for that, if you are busy, you don't need to come." she protested.

I was surprised, I had thought she would be happy that I wanted to come watch her.

These days, I felt Rhea had been pulling away from me.

I had tried not to make it bother me, but it seemed she became more distant every day.

"Baby, I don't care about my work, I can be there," I assure her.
