Kath and Dante meet the grandparents

After making the portal in the part of the forest we arrived at the castle almost dawn, while we watched a curious silence we decided to go to the dining room to see if Paula or Jack was awake, but to our surprise there was a boy that I did not know yet but he was familiar to me, when I indicated to Cedric that there is someone in the kitchen half asleep he smiles and says to me

Cedric: there's Dante.

I look at him curiously and ask: Who is Dante?

When Cedric was about to explain who it was Paula comes down and hugs me while she decides to go downstairs with Cedric and wake up a Dante more asleep than awake with a face of not having slept well at all, when I was thinking of going downstairs the sound of someone coming down called my attention until I saw a beautiful young woman similar to me who when she saw me asked me

Kath: Who are you?

Cedric who had heard the voice turns around and says: yes you do look alike.

As Paula smiled she said: baby girl... that's her.

I gestured to Paula and said: I am a friend of Paula.

Dante who had fully awakened looks at me curiously and asks: I remember I didn't drink a drop of sake with Juna... why do I see 2 Kath.

When Juna said I ran to my room and saw Yui and hugged her tightly.

In the other room Juna was already more than awake and as I watched as she hugged Mokona she said: it's good to see you again Sapphire.

I smiled at the sound of her voice and said: Yes, I'm happy to be back too, I missed you very much Miss Juna.

Then Jack came to the room and I hugged him tightly, and told them what happened, after a pause I asked: How come Kath is here? And how come you drank with the boy?

Yui who laughs a little says: Oops we got caught beautiful.

Then Jack looks at me and asks in a strange tone: Does the little girl know the truth?

My gesture was a 'Ehh.. No' but I made a gesture that implied that first my questions and then I would answer theirs. Jack told me that a week ago Kath and Dante arrived wanting to know if they had met me and to know what I was like and from there go to the human world.

Manuel told them about the human world and how he had seen it the last time, I understood that he was referring to that day where I confronted my brother and swore not to set foot in the human world.

Although Kath still wanted to go and see with her own eyes the truth, but Dante understood very well what I wanted to tell them Manuel more if he and I were not only friends but brothers, and if he said it was because I would not want to put her in danger or see what I had to suffer in the past.

Although Kath wanted Juna and Mokona challenged the guys, Kath and Yui with sweet food competition and Juna with Dante with sake, I didn't know whether to laugh for my imagination or get mad about it but I won't deny that I appreciated the gesture of Juna not making Kath drink sake, after hearing the story I took a deep breath and said.

Me: I'm sorry Juna, Jack... but the truth is that I didn't have the courage to tell Kath that she is my daughter -after a slight breath and while looking at the sunset I said- I don't know how she would react if she finds out, besides Cedric and I are not getting along well.

What I didn't notice was that Dante had heard what I said and as I entered the room he said in a serious tone: Is that true?

Jack nods when he sees him and says: it's not an easy story, if it were easy... we wouldn't hide from the world, we have human things, only that in our diet there is blood... that can't be said lightly.

Dante nods knowing that Jack was right, but his look reminded me of Cedric that for a moment I didn't know what to do until he said: I want to know the story.

I looked at Juna a little confused and she slowly nodded and I understood that it was the best thing to do if I wanted to tell my daughter the truth later.
