บท 195: Niece and Nephew

"Altera, eh?" He asked her with an amused tilt in his voice as soon as the others left. "Didn't anyone question how much it sounded like your name?"

Althea only blinked at his question, adorably innocent. "I know, what a lovely coincidence. Interestingly, it could also mean (higher) Alt + Terra(n)." She said with a sly smile, obviously using this reason before.

Ansel shook his head. She obviously felt quite proud of this explanation, so he just went along with it in the end. 

The two of them continued to chat as they walked to their destination. It was breezy and fun and it was like they had never been apart.

After passing through the lively greened streets and parks—which still hadn't stopped amazing Ansel—the two siblings finally arrived outside the villa.

"We're here." She said, looking back at him with a proud smile. He chuckled and turned to look at the tall fence in interest, his eyes brightening up the more he saw.
