My First And Last Man - Chapter 567
Ren is still busy opening the gift meanwhile Lynel didn’t comment it out instead she asks the butler instead.
“Bro Kei, where’s Mama Grand?”
“Madame Din is inside her room, Lynel.”
“I see, how about my Mom and Dad?”
“Sir Din just left to his working place and Lady Din is also on the way in the shop”
“Then the hidden bodyguards, where are they?”
“They’re outside Lynel”
“Mmm… so they are not hidden bodyguards anymore huh”
Lynel own hidden 2 lady bodyguards suddenly appear out of nowhere and replied to her “no because we are always the hidden bodyguards of yours, Lady Lynel”
“What the heck? You scare me you know”
“Our apology for scaring you Lady Lynel”
“It’s alright I’m just kidding and you don’t need to be in your ninja moves since….”
“My beautiful artist Lynel, let’s go now or else you will be late”
“I’m already ready Bro Rick and you’re the only one who’s not yet ready you know”
“Oh, I see, and…..” stop because he realized that Ren is busy with something but before he asks he got drag by Lynel.
“Common Bro Rick you just said that we will be late if we’re not going now, geez seriously are you really that your almost the same age with Auntie Rei, Auntie Mei, and Mom, huh?”
“Common, common Lynel don’t pout because it won’t fit to what you wear now” Lynel is wearing stylish leggings and shirts designed personally by Rick as he fitted with Lynel’s personality.
“At least you’re not that bad if it’s about designing. Bro Kei and Bro Ren, we’re going now, bye-bye” then they leave along with their hidden bodyguards.
Ren has just done unwrapping the gift and realized that they already left so he said “again, it’s only the two of us here Bro Kei”
“Your grandma is inside her room, Ren”
“Of course I know but it’s kind of lonely right?”
“Young Master Ren…….”
“No worries Bro Kei because I’m not that sad since if I’m going along with Lynel then Grandma will be alone here so I will be alright and might be used to it, so now, why not teach me how to play this one then?”
“Of course I will teach you Ren”
“Ha, ha, ha as expected of my butler and you know everything Bro Kei”
“Well we’ve been trained since we’re a kid Young Master Ren”
“I see but what about your dreams and ambitions then?”
“Well we are always grateful to the Jang Family but I decline to be a butler since we are not really obliged to serve the Jang’s but then I didn’t refuse when I realize that I will serve Master Jang sons so now here I am, serving you and your butler Young Master Ren”
“I see and Bro Ken butler is your older cousin right?”
“Uh-uh, and he also declines to be one but then just like me he also become Young Master’s Ken butler for the same reason of mine.”
“Eh, then how about my other cousins, do they have a butler then?”
“Yes they have a butler but it’s not from our family lines since me and my cousin were the only males younger generation from our family so your cousins have butler from the other butler family”
“Eh, so Great Grand Father also against with a female butler, huh”
“Yes Ren although Madame Jang [Mei] already change the history of the Jang’s tradition by letting the ladies from the Jang Corp. be part of it, Great Master Jang views didn’t include us and didn’t allow a female servant to serve the Jang so that’s why”
“I don’t really know why Great Grand Father so against the female ones but let’s stop talking about that one since it’s quite depressing to talk instead teach me now Bro Kei.”
“Yes, Young Master Ren but you have a lesson this afternoon for your programming skills so I only teach you for an hour.”
“No worries”
“Uhm Young Master Ren, can I know who’s your instructor for your programming skills? I’m your butler so I want to know if you’re in safe and good hands during the whole lessons”
“Ha, ha, ha you are asking it again Bro Kei but I will also answer the same thing that I’m in good hands and it’s a secret” then Ren wonders. ‘Who would dare to say that my teacher is an Artificial Intelligence unless I want to expose Auntie Rei’s identity, right?’
“…..”
Aya just awake and heard her grandson “you are teasing your Butler again Ren”
“Ah, Grandma you’re awake, and let’s eat our lunch now”
“Silly boy, you don’t need to wait for me and you can enjoy going with Lynel you know”
“He, he, he will Lynel have Bro Rick with her while you don’t have one so why not I accompany my beloved Grandma, right?”
“Yeah, yeah I’m grateful that my grandson thinks about me and you’re really Mei’s son after all. By the way, where did you get that one?”
“Bro Ken gifted it to me”
“Eh, I see, and what a filial one”
“Ha, ha, ha right but you might don’t know Auntie but I guess Bro Ken ask Auntie Rei to buy this one after all he didn’t compete with a cash prize award.”
“Silly and did you already thank Ken for this?”
“I will Grandma but later since we need to fill our stomach first”
And then the three of them eat their lunch, sometimes the hidden bodyguards will join them but it’s only rare since they are indeed a ninja who just suddenly appear and disappear to their sight.
Four days passed Ren didn’t call his Brother and just wait for his call because he is very sure that his brother just wants to hear his voice being so excited about his gifts but not this time because he wants to tease his brother for deciding to leave him alone although he already knows the reasons since that day, he is still a kid and so being emotional and being childish is very normal for him because he is a kid.
At around 7 pm [9 pm in S Country], Ren received a call from Ken and pranking him then hung up right away when his tone change before he got discover by his brother. Ren is inside in his room and laughing for successfully pranking his brother. Although he is laughing you can still feel the sadness of his laugh after all his parents and brother is not with him on his special day though he is aware of the reason, he is still a 7 years old boy after all. Just before his tears flowing out from his eyes, he heard his phone again, and this time it’s a video call so he answered right away as if he’s not almost in tears.
“Geez, Ren you are teasing me again…[pause because he realizes something wrong with his brother] wait, are you alright?”
“….” Ren didn’t answer and he just hears his brother excusing himself in his very own way to their Auntie and Uncle.
“Auntie Rei and Uncle Tae I’m going to scold Ren for a while in my room” then Ken goes to his room right away then locks again before talking to his twin younger brother again “tell me what’s wrong with you and are you really alright?”
“I—– I’m alright Bro Ken”
“Don’t fool me again and I know you, Ren, you always staying cool as if you’re not affected but compared to us you’re the one who inherits Dad of being an emotional one so tell me what’s wrong with you and don’t forget that we are twins so I can feel something wrongs with you, so tell me, okay?”
“I—- I feel lonely, Auntie Lyn is always at the shop, Uncle El is always in his working place, Lynel also been busy with her schedules together with Bro Rick and I can’t disturb Grandma because she’s our grandmother. I didn’t tell anything to Dad because for sure he will decide to throw his CEO Position and come here right away because we are his first priority and of course same with Mom because I didn’t tell anything because everyone will know that I’m lonely and I don’t want them to blame themselves for leaving me alone because I’m not really alone but the one I’m always with is my butler and bodyguards so it’s a different thing because they are not my family…” then Ren crying hard.
“Just cry Ren and let it out, I’m here and I will wait for you until you will calm down” and that way Ren crying hard and stop when there are no tears coming from his eyes anymore, so he asks again. “Are you alright now?”
“Uh-uh”
“Do you want me to keep it a secret from everyone?”
“Uh-uh, but it won’t be a secret anymore after all Auntie Rei will notice something wrong for sure.”
“Yeah you are right so I will tell Auntie Rei about this matter and it’s up to Auntie’s decision if she will keep it a secret or let everyone know about this”
“Uh-uh”
“Geez Ren you are really an idiot one and it might be my fault after all I’ve been selfish enough to study here and stay with Auntie Rei without knowing that I’m leaving my brother lonely but Ren just endure it for now because after I graduate here I will surely return to you right away and I promise I won’t leave you again”
“……”
“By the way, did you read my message?”
“Eh, what message?”
