Chapter 47 "Da-eun tried to touch Noah's cheeks"

"Doodles!!! What kind of a name is that master? Ugh… At least give me a name that sounds as legendary as I am.." Doodles whined and jumped in frustration at his new name given by his master…

Doodles looked at Da-eun and thought back to the time when he first came to know her… he still remembered clearly that Da-eun had given him a little less childlike as the name that he got this time..

Da-eun saw Doodles whining and frowning his brows to show how unhappy he was with the name and smiled in helplessness.. "Umm.. I can't think of a legendary name for your legendary being in such a short time.. how about I think of a name some other time when I'm not in a hurry? I promise to think of a good name for you.. Until then you make do with this name.. okay doodles?"

Da-eun actually liked this name very much.. it suited his innocent toddler like appearance… but, as she looked at him making a big deal out of it, she promised to give his name another thought some other time..

Doodles saw that Da-eun had promised and was looking at him with her big purple eyes, his heart melted… he knew his master was just like that… always treating him like a small baby and giving him names that sounded like a cute and small kid…

He sighed in resignation and thought that there was no other option "Just because you promised master.. I'll keep this name.. but you have to think of a new name as soon as possible.."

Da-eun saw that Doodles had agreed to keep the name for the time being and grinned from ear to ear.. she reached out her hand to pat on his head and said.. "Good boy Doodles.. I'll see you soon.. okay.."

After saying that Da-eun closed her eyes to bring her consciousness out of the power source.. After a few second she opened her eyes and found herself on the bed… she turned her head and saw Noah sitting there on the chair beside her..

She propped her body up and sat with her legs crossed.. Da-eun saw Noah, who had fallen asleep on the chair while keeping watch over her.. She smiles softly and mumbled in a low voice "You look so innocent while sleeping.. who can say that it's the same boy who always comes up with his wicked replies.. hehe.."

Da-eun got tempted by his smooth and plump cheeks and reached out to caress… she was about to touch when Noah opened his eyes.. "What are you doing? And when did you wake up?"

Da-eun whose hand was about to touch the plump cheeks paused mid air.. She raise her eyes and met with a gaze as deep as an ocean.. Noah who had ocean like eyes was looking right into her eyes as she felt her heartbeat getting faster by the sudden eye contact..

Da-eun felt her face burning.. she felt like she had almost done something that made her feel guilty… she quickly pulled back her hand and averted her gaze.. She said as her voice trembled a little "Umm… I… I just woke up and.. there was a mosquito on your cheek… yeah.. a mosquito… I was trying to make it fly away.."

Noah saw her face turning red and touched his own cheek feeling a little confused by her reaction… "Oh.. is that so? Alright… I'll go and inform grandpa and dad that you woke up.. you go and freshen up.."

Noah didn't give much thought about her reaction and walked out of the room after saying that… Da-eun saw him leaving and heaved a sigh of relief… she placed her hand on her chest and mumbled to herself "phew.. that was a close call.. but why'd my heartbeat get so fast whenever our eyes meet like this?"

Da-eun slapped herself lightly on the cheeks and reprimanded herself _'Da-eun.. this is not the right thing to do.. it's not good to have your heart beat get faster every time, for a kid.. don't think about stuff like that..'_

She quickly got into the bathroom to freshen up… by the time she finally walked out of the bathroom, everyone was there in her room looking at her with their eyes full of concern..

Grandfather Einar took a few long strides and stood right in front of her… he held her hand and took her to the bed and made her sit down on the bed, while he sat down beside her…

"Girl… how are you feeling? Any kind of discomfort, pain?" Grandfather Einar held her hand and looked at her with his eyebrows furrowed.. he was looking for any sign to see if she was in any kind of pain because of the Sacred Divine Artifact…

When he handed the Sacred Divine Artifact in her hand, he knew that something could happen to her… but, his gut feeling told him that he should take a chance.. maybe he'd succeed this time.. after she lost consciousness in front of him, he felt his heart sink deep down.. he thought that something happened to her and he failed to protect her..

But, when he heard Noah tell him that Da-eun had woken up, he finally felt relieved.. his heart that was feeling anxious finally calmed down and he ran directly towards her room to take a look at her..

Da-eun saw that he was worried about her, she smiled slightly and said "Grandpa… I'm fine… there's nothing wrong with my body.. and I don't feel any discomfort anywhere.. please don't worry anymore..."

Damiano who sat right in front of them saw that she was fine and there was nothing to worry about… he finally understood the situation and his eyebrows knitted from all kinds of thoughts that surged right through his mind…

Da-eun turned to look at her father and saw him knitting his eyebrows, she asked in a concerned voice "Dad.. is there anything wrong? You look like something's troubling you.."

Damiano finally snapped put of his thoughts and quickly smoothened his eyebrows, putting on a soft smile before speaking "Nothing.. there's nothing that's troubling me… now that you're alright and finally awake, let's go and eat something first.. it's been a whole day you must be hungry.."

When Da-eun heard Damiano speak of food, she finally felt her stomach burning from hunger.. she was so hungry that she felt like eating all the food at once..

Elio and Rick was also present behind them… when Elio heard about food he quickly said "Young miss.. I'll go and quickly cook you something light and tasty.."

After saying that he took Rick's hand and left the room with him in a hurry.. Rick saw their hands clasped together and sighed in helplessness _'You hold my hand as if it's nothing.. sometimes I fear if you'd ever understand what it means to me..'_

Noah on the other hand was in deep thoughts to care about what was happening around him.. he knew a thing or two about the Sacred Divine Artifact and that made him more and more curious and confused at the same time after what happened to Da-eun..
