And Leal make sure you are present at the party this time, after all, it was thanks to you Ash was safe all this time," Raymond said as he looked at Leal who probably already planned to leave quietly.
"Brother do I need to be there? And it's not like I did something peculiar. As Ash's uncle It was my responsibility to take care of him. So, for the celebration please keep me out of it." Leal said as she tried his best to avoid coming to the party.
.
"Leal that's is why you should come because for both Ash and Irene you are their only uncle and my only brother," Raymond said as she looked at Leal who just realized the fact that. They truly are the only winter sibling left of all others.
( A/N: Since the other members along with Lilith the grand-aunt have been stripped off their title and also banished from the winter family)
.
"Uncle Leal please don't say 'No'." Both Irene and Ash pleaded as they looked at him with puppy eyes.
"See even the kids want you to be there~," Raymond said as she smiled.
.
*Sigh* "Seriously You guys won't let me live peacefully. Fine, you win tell me when is the party?" Leal said as he looked at them with his lazy eyes.
.
"I am thinking of hosting it next week since after that I will be gone for another week for business purposes. So, we need to prepare everyone quickly. I have already ordered the things needed for the party all left is decoration and invitation which is your duty." Raymond said as he looked at Irene who was just chewing her food without any thought.
.
"Sure Father, I will do that soon. And father doesn't we need new clothes for the party since all our clothes are quite out of trend." Irene said as she looked at their clothes and then at hers.
.
"Hmm, you are right we need some new pair of clothes. Okay then let's call for the designer tomorrow and Leal you should join us too." Raymond said as he looked at Leal who never wears anything except for black or grey.
.
"Okay~ but don't make me wear anything too bright," Leal said as he looked at Raymond who just nodded his head.
.
"Then let's get to work!" Raymond said as he looked at them.
After that everyone in the mansion got busy.
.
"Hmm, so we need to invite only the people from solar. Father is sure to fast, he already invited the foreigners." Ash who was helping Irene with the invitation process said as he looked at the list of people.
.
"Yeah, it would have been better if he informed us faster than we wouldn't have to be in such a hurry." Irene who was struggling to choose a card said as she sighed.
.
"Yeah...("She looks drained out.") " Ash thought as he looked at Irene.
"My lady at what time should we call the designer?" Hana asked as she came into the room with paper and a pen.
.
"Tomorrow at 10 Am would be good and tell her to bring laced clothes and well fit clothes since they are in trend now," Irene said as she signed the paper which was for the designer.
.
"And tell her to avoid dark clothes they aren't good for summer the lighter the better." Irene continued as she handed her the letter.
.
"Okay, I will do so. And my lady please don't overwork and take care of yourself." Hana said as she smilied.
"Uh-huh," Irene said as she nodded her head.
.
"Ash quit looking at me like that," Irene said as she poked his cheeks.
"Hah, I won't~," Ash said as he widened his eyes more and looked straight at her.
.
"Why am I that pretty~" Irene joked as she rested her face on her palms.
"Not really, *Comes closer* your eye bags are visible and your skin is pale and hazardous. Have you not been sleeping well this past few days?" Ash asked as he touched her face.
.
"Really is it that bad!" Irene said as she backed off and looked at the small hand mirror on the table.
*Sigh* "My dark circles really look bad...(If this keeps up I won't be able to hit the fact that I am being troubled.) " Irene thought as she put down the mirror and checked her schedule.
.
"What are you looking at?" Ash asked as he peeked at the notebook in her hand.
"My schedule, I need to visit a salon soon and get rid of all this," Irene said as she pointed at her face.
.
"Salon huh, But won't that be bad for your skin?"
"Nah, they are professionals, they know what should be done and whatnot."
.
"If you say then when will you visit them?"
"Hmm, I don't have any day off, maybe I will visit it this weekend, ( I will just go to the salon and then the temple)."
.
"I see then how about you let me join you," Ash asked and Irene's notebook slipped through her hands.
"You want to join me? To the salon...why?" Irene asked as she picked up her notebook with a pale look on her face.
.
Ash noticed that yet he didn't say anything about it, "It's been a while since we hang out together so I wanted to join you~" Ash said as he rose from his seat.
"Hangout...(It truly has been a while since we hang out but with him, I won't be able to visit the temple and if I deny he will be hurt...Hah being an elder sister is hard.)...Okay, you can join me. But I need to visit the temple too so if you get tired don't blame me." Irene said as she shrugged.
.
"Temple? Why would you visit the temple?" Ash asked as he faced her?
"Just I want to pray...." Irene said as she looked at the invitations, "And also I need to invite them personally." She continued as she showed him the invitation card with the name of the temple.
.
"I see then no problem, I will just stick to your side," Ash said as he smiled looking at Irene who was enduring his nonsense without a complaint.
"Okay do as you wish." She said as she patted his head which made his ears turn red.
.
"Sister do you really need to pat my head. You know I am not a kid anymore." He said in a slightly embarrassed tone.
"It doesn't matter to me if you are a kid or not, because to me you will always be my little brother," Irene said as she ruffled his well-combed hair.
.
Ash smiled as he looked at his hands, (In these three years I missed this moment so much and yet ironically if I pass the exam I won't be able to see you for 5 or 6 years again...So, sister please let me stay with you.)
.
He was so engrossed in his thoughts that he didn't even realize that Irene was calling him.
"Earth to Ash!" Irene said as she flicked his forehead.
"Ahh!! What was that for?" Ash asked as he rubbed the spot where he was hit.
.
"It was to bring you back to present. I have been calling for the last 5 minutes but you weren't listening to me at all. So I used my secret technique~" Irene said as she showed him a peace sign.
"Hah!...okay, it was my mistake now tell me what were you talking about?" Ash asked as he sighed and rolled his eyes.
.
"I was talking about this, *Touches his braid* Would you like to cut them off or keep it?" Irene asked as she touched his brown hair which was rough like hay.
.
"I won't cut them, they remind me of the hard work I have done in the last 3 years," Ash said as he snatched his hair and patted them gently.
.
"Geez, do you really need to so cringe? Don't worry if you want to keep it, then keep it but you should wash them properly at the salon or else the horses might eat it up." Irene said as she giggled.
.
"Huh? What do you mean?" Clueless Ash asked a she looked at his hair.
"Nothing just if you are going to the salon you should get your hair treated too," Irene said as she smiled.
.
"Hmm, if you say so then fine. So at what te will we be leaving?" Ash asked as he picked up his sword.
"I will inform you later."
.
"Okay, then I will leave for training now. See ya!" He said as he left the room with his coat in his hand.
.
("Did the Ash in the original novel ever kept his hair long or did he ever dreamt of becoming a knight? I don't know but the Ash in front of me is both a dreamer and achiever. And it makes me feel proud of him..") Irene thought as she smiled while looking at the sky.
