Love Is A Sweet Poison - Chapter 80

Gabriel chuckled and got up and moved his cus.h.i.+on and then picked up the empty cus.h.i.+on and placed it next to his. “What kind of a brother would I be if I did not help my Little Brother out. Itsuki if you like it at my place then when you Papa comes to town you can come with him. I will make sure that I have a small gift for you.” He rubbed the little guy’s head affectionately.

Subaru looked at the two and cheered up. “Itsuki if you want to come with me then I will bring you with me. I know that you will have fun and Mayumi will be there as well so there will be a girl that is your age so you will be able to play with her.”

Itsuki sat down on the cus.h.i.+on and picked up his chopsticks, “Itadakimasu.” He started on his food and ate quietly.

Gabriel smiled at the boy before starting his meal. “Itadakimasu.” He eats slowly and in his heart, it was full of concern and worry for Amelia. ‘I swear I will come home soon. Please do not have an attack.’

Subaru sighed, “itadakimasu.” The young man has a lot to think about. It is not an easy choice to marry someone with this disease. I will do all that I can to help.’

Gabriel finished his meal first and put his hands together. “Gochisosama.” He got up and picked up the sketch of Amelia and continued to work on out as the other two ate their food. “I know what you are thinking Subaru. When you meet her you will understand why this is so unfair.”

There was a knock on the door and Itsuki entered his brother’s room with Kosuke towards Gabriel. “Gabriel we are ready to load the people and the last of the herbs. I made sure that there was room for it.”

“Let Subaru and Itsuki finish eating and we shall load everyone else in.” Gabriel looked back at Kazuki.

“Oh that is right you did say that they are coming. You are not allowed to sit upfront. Who shall sit there? I was going to take turns holding Mayumi.” Kazuki looks torn and holds his

chin.

“Gochisosama. I will sit out front Gabriel already said that he would hold Itsuki. I agree that Gabriel should sit in the back.” Subaru sat up and smiled.

“If there is a need to then I will also sit up front.” Edward peeked his head in.

“Now it should be fine if you do not mind helping my brother hold Itsuki.” Kazuki looked at Edward and was slightly confused about who this guy was until he remembered that Gabriel said that his bride’s father was with them. “Ah! That is right.”

Gabriel pointed to the package and looked at Kazuki. “That is the herbs. We will meet you guys at the carriage. I want Itsuki to finish his food. Then we will join you.”

Itsuki ate his food a little faster and drank his tea. “Gochisosama, I am ready to go, Big Brother.”

Kazuki grabbed the package and took it to the carriage and made it fit then he helped Suzuka into the carriage. Then he lifted Mayuki in and got in himself.

Gabriel picked up Itsuki and smiled. Are you excited to go for a carriage ride? Also, since it is night time you can sleep as nothing exciting will happen.”

“Okay, I will sleep while I can and in the morning I will be excited. I will go to the bathroom before we go.” Itsuki remembers that they will not be able to stop a lot and decides that a bathroom trip is a good idea.

“Good idea.” Gabriel takes him to the bathroom and steps outside.

“Thank you, Gabriel. I know I keep saying this but you are so nice to him. He is loved dearly.” Subaru smiles at Gabriel and is feeling very proud.

“There is no need to thank me. He is just a little boy and at first, he thought I was a bad guy so I cannot blame him for hating me in the beginning.” Gabriel smiled at the memory and chuckled. “You can tell that he loves both you and Boss.”

Edward smiled and watched the interactions between the two. “It looks like you two are getting along really well. I want to thank you for all the herbs that you helped gather for my daughter.” He bows to the two.

“Your daughter is my everything so it goes without saying that I would do everything that I can to help you out.” Gabriel turned to the door and called out to Itsuki. “Little Brother are you okay?”

“Yes! I am all done.” Itsuki came outside the room and latched onto Gabriel’s leg. “I will walk to the door and to the carriage you will be holding me a long time and I worry your arms will get tired.”

“Okay, let’s go and get on the road.” Gabriel started to walk with Itsuki and they ran into Mari.

“I made a bento and onigiri for the trip just in case you get hungry. Please take it with you.” Mari holds out the packages.

“Thank you very much, Mari. You did not have to do that but I really appreciate it. I will be praying for Tomomi’s swift recovery.” Gabriel went to take the food but Kazuki and Edward took the packages first. “Thank you, guys.” He bows and heads to the door and changes his shoes.

Itsuki bowed to Mari and skipped to the door and changed his shoes before stepping outside. “Big Brother will there be enough room in your house for everyone?”

“There will be enough room without a doubt.” Gabriel patted his head and everyone walked to the carriage together. “Edward if you can get in first I will hand you Itsuki and then I will get in.”

“Okay, if that is what you want to do then that is what we will do.” Edward climbed in and took Itsuki from Gabriel.
