📅 April 7th, Lupin Year 99

I (Galoth) couldn't believe what I saw with my own eyes.

Inside me, I always had a doubt - something about that boy... something I couldn't trust.

But that day confirmed everything.

My heart boiled like lava inside a volcano.

"How dare he..."

My fists clenched as I watched it - Morvena, my daughter... hugging Heman.

And then... he kissed her forehead.

Just then, June knocked on the door.

Morvena and Heman froze, shocked to see us.

I had no words. I just turned and walked away, my mind spinning in silence.

Morvena ran after me.

She called out and stood in front of me, trying to convince me.

I didn't want to hear a single word... but something about her eyes - they weren't lying.

282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj3tnKhoKAL

She brought me to a small restaurant to talk.

I sat down, but my eyes didn't leave Heman.

Every bite I didn't take, every breath I held in... was full of anger.

And then...

Morvena opened up.

She told me everything.

How she and Heman had loved each other since the first day he entered the Dream Realm.

How their hearts connected.

I still couldn't digest it.

That boy... would become my son-in-law?

282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwsfdOCgmU5

But what hit me even harder - Julina was okay with this.

She wasn't upset.

She listened... and simply nodded.

Was I the only one who couldn't accept this?

Without touching my food, I stood up and walked away.

That night, under the moonlight, I sat on a bench, watching the stars.

The sky had a strange peace... one that I couldn't feel inside me.

282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4gQzaEZx4N

Morvena quietly came and sat beside me.

She looked at the stars too, and spoke gently.

282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXXMeOsrNNB

She told me how much Heman meant to her.

That being with him reminded her of me.

How he was protective, caring... and even funny.

She smiled saying, "Just like you, Papa."

282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0RsPaCKIzh

And then she said something that shook me:

282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlyIfUsIW1M

> "Nothing is more important to me than your permission."

282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8cCTMWBypa

282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPzaI6Rlj1h

At that moment...

I felt like I'd won.

As a father.

282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoIZg6FkDc1

I looked at her - not as the powerful Reverie Fairie.

But as my little girl.

And in my heart, I said:

282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYMNN6rK4ps

> "Well, who else should trust my daughter... if not me?"

Later, I asked her to bring Heman.

But before he arrived, Timbon came.

282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9QUi8d7ycp

I smiled and said:

282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgJzwvtBjNL

> "Welcome to the family, kid."

282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDxs8o1Vez4

282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5umQCwzT7I

I spoke to him about our traditions.

Told stories about Morvena's childhood.

Even shared how she once cried for a moon-shaped cookie and refused to sleep without it.

282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBG5fteJI84

Then Heman walked in.

I asked him to sit.

282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzPpwzCDxRq

I looked straight into his eyes and said:

282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4keYvK8Lw5

> "Look, kid... she's my world. Make sure you take care of her."

282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr1XX3iii3C

282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡolYxpuoqq6

Before I could say anything more, he replied:

282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCasT6la9li

> "I will, sir. With all my life."

282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFqAoVYfTCP

282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRuTmBWA8I7

I believed him.

282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrn08k9QiwT

I walked to Morvena and told her I supported their wedding -

But on one condition: I wanted to meet Heman's parents.

282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuG05yJPWTs

He agreed.

282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHU9QhbIo9A

Morvena hugged me tightly, tears falling.

282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0s2uoW66H

> "Tq, Papa..."

282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlEd6LVM2b9

282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ5hHyWRcfh

I gave her the wooden dragon toy from her childhood.

She held it close, her eyes shining with gratitude.

282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0UiZZ0Q783

That night, I was happy for both of them.

282Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡha3uOUO5qW

...But that day I didn't know destiny has its own plans.
