I Found a Husband When I Picked up the Male Lead - Chapter 6
“Hiccup ………. Hiccup.“
With his soft cheeks bulging, Lapel deeply inhales and swallows a cry. Werazel threw away the clothes he was wearing and changed them into comfortable pants and a shirt she used to wear.
When she was giving him a bath, he cried so hard as if it was the end of the world and thought her ears were going deaf.2
“Lapel. I’m sorry. I had to wash you thoughly. “
“Scary! Water! No!”
Lapel, who had become sulky, turned his little face, ignoring Werazel. His black hair bouncing gently.
She felt reluctant to give strangers a bath without calling for the maids, but he was so scruffy that it took 10 minutes to rinse with water. And one hour had passed after I loosened my hair and washed his dirty body.
After washing, the original appearance of the male lead was revealed brightly.
Even at the age of only 5 years old, his face is already outstanding. Black hair like loose silk threads and intense red eyes in white skin are attractive. His face is still round but with high nose and fair white skin, the handsome face shined even more.
‘That is why he must be the main character. ‘
‘I was looking forward to Lapel’s future. It was obvious how many women will secretly admire him. However, for Lapel, the male protagonist, there would be only one female protagonist.
“I’m really sorry Lapel. I won’t do that anymore. “
As Werazel held the chubby cheeks of Lapel with both hands, that boy that was pouting quietly turned back.
“Water… Bad. “
“Yes, Lapel hates water, I’m sorry, I won’t do it anymore.”
Werazel’s friendly voice quickly relieved Lapel and he ran to her, asking to be held. Werazel raised the kids holding her leg.
Lapel, who had just taken a bath, smelled like a baby.
“Water….”
Lapel mumbled, rubbing his face on his shoulder against the Werazel.
Are you afraid of water because you are young? Or do you have any bad memories related to water?
As she was patting his back, she asked carefully.
“Lapel. Can I ask why the water is scary?”
” ….”
“What are you doing? “
“Huck… “1
Lapel made a sound as if vividly portraying a drowning situation.
“Have you ever fallen into the water? Have you ever been drowned?”
Raphel struggled in the arms of Werazel. It was a stubborn refusal to broach on the topic.
“I’m sorry, I won’t ask you anymore.” As the small, delicate body was trembling, Weregel couldn’t really ask anymore.
That’s weird. Was there anything that could make you scared of water?1
Even though she tried to remember the details in the novel, I couldn’t recall it well.
I’m worried that his wariness about water would not disappear quickly.
Werazel, who was absorbed in thought of the child, bit her lips firmly.
I shouldn’t be interested more than this. The Duke will take care of Lapel anyway. I just need to bring him to the duke who is looking for his nephew and come out with a reward. There, the relationship between her and Lapel would be over. So there was nothing good about getting too close.
“Lady, I brought the soup.”
“Come in. “
Werazel placed Lapel on the bed at the voice of the maid outside the door. Soon after, the person who opened the door walked in with a small table. It was a children’s table that Werazel used as a child. The affectionate parents said that the things their daughter used were memories and kept them.
At the request of Werazel, the maid placed a bowl of warm soup on the tiny table from the warehouse
“The temperature is right so you can feed it to him right away.”
“Yes, thank you.”
“Yes, if you need anything Lady, please call me.”
Werazel took the spoon on the table and placed it on Lapel’s hand.
“You can scoop it up, right? “
She has to give Lapel something in order to fill in the lacking nutrition he needs and give him the medicine the doctor had prescribed. The soup contained chopped carrots and broccoli. Since it has been cooked thoroughly, it has a soft texture so there would be no problem in digesting it.
“…”
Lapel looked at the soup in front of him and swallowed. When he saw something floating in orange color, he quietly put the spoon down.
“Do you hate carrots?”
Lapel crumpled his face and pushed the plate in front of him with his small hand as if he didn’t want to see the carrots, but the rumbling sound was ringing in his slim stomach.1
If you haven’t eaten properly, you must be starving, but still, you’re picky about food…….
He glanced warrily at her, to see if she might be angry with him. However Werazel was still smiling, her face looked so sweet that Lapel was relieved.
“If Raphelion ate this soup well and became healthy, he would be able to play around, don’t you think?”
She didn’t get angry or scolded Lapel. She didn’t ask him to eat carrots. If she forced him to eat food he didn’t like to eat, it would become a bad memory for him and would continue to be picky in the future.
Werazel is careful about whether her actions and words would leave a trauma to Lapel.
“Then shall we eat only three times? “
” Three….?”
“Yes, just three times, can we Lapel?”
Lapel clenched his fists and moved his small mouth. The answer came from not wanting to disappoint Lapel, and her hand stroked Lapel’s cheek because his young face was so cute.
“Now…ah”
“Ah….”
The boy opened his small mouth and had a spoonful of the soup, his eyes closed tightly. After tasting it in his mouth several times, he swallowed it.
“What do you think? There are two left, can you Lapel?”
It’s not bad, Lapel nodded.
After three spoons of soup, Werazel will be delighted and praise him. To hear it soon, Lapel opened his mouth again, and the baby bird asked for food from the mother bird.
Werezel wanted to do it this time and took a spoonful of soup and fed it to him. Lapel was surprised that it had a larger amount than the first.
Only one remained after eating this. I couldn’t give up now.
She laughed at the way he was eating the soup with his cheeks bulging like a hamster.
If she had a younger brother, would it feel like this?
It seemed like she drank freshly made sweet cocoa, feeling soft and warm inside.
“Last one.”
After finishing the last bite, the soup bowl was more than half empty. She succeeded in feeding the soup as planned.
“I’m really proud of you.” I have to give the medicine right away, the last door of the coffin, Werazel who praised Rapel generously, thought firmly.
“Lapel, can you eat this too? “
She brought out the vial the doctor had given her and waved it in front of the lapel. Lapel stared at the pinkish liquid with mysterious eyes, but instinctively bit his lip.
“Well, it’s very sweet and delicious.”
Lapel was intrigued and tempted, but didn’t open his closed lips.
She pulled out her last resort. The way her mother did for herself who didn’t eat well when she was young.
“Here comes the plane. Whee~~. “
Werazel swished her hand holding the spoon. The spoon then floated in the air and flew smoothly in a curved line direction.
“Plane?”
Oops, there are no airplanes in this world. She realized the mistake too late, and hastily made an excuse.
“It’s like flying in the sky with magic.”
“Woah. Can you fly in the sky?”
“… Yes. If you eat well, you can fly in the sky someday. “
Lapel sparkled his eyes and moved his head following her hand movements.
The figure reminded her of the cat moving its head to catch the fishing rod, and Lizelle laughed inwardly.
“Oh oh! The plane is landing. Lapel, ah! ” The spoon that went back and forth to the point where it was difficult for him to follow stopped in front of the mouth of Lapel.
” Ah!”
Lapel who looked at the spoon opened his mouth without knowing it. Werazel did not miss this time and put the medicine in his mouth.
“Well done! Lapel! “
Werazel smiled with satisfaction and poured out the praises Lapel wanted.
“Hehehe.”
Though he took medicine in a daze, Lapel had a fresh summer-like smile on his face.
At this moment, Raphelion thought he wished this moment would last forever.
The smile, the touch, and the praise of Werzel towards me were all good.+
And so the tragic afterimage of his parents beyond Lapel’s lost memory was forgotten.
