I Saw You

“Big Sister!”
The voice sounded quite young, even the pronunciation was unclear. The door opened with that cute cry.
The one who appeared through the crack in the door was a young master who was about five or six years old, and it was a child that Lynn knew well.
‘Angie Ruber.’
Lynn looked at the successor of Marquis Ruber, startled.
“Big Sister? Big Sister!”
Young Angie wandered around the room, anxiously looking for his sister. But the empty room was silent, and the child soon turned away in disappointment.
“Not here either…”
Angie slumped and closed the door and went out.
Then the closet of the empty room opened and a girl sneaked out.
Lynn covered his mouth without realizing it as he saw the girl carefully stretching her feet.
‘Rena?’
It was none other than Rena who was hiding in the closet.
Unlike before, this memory unfolded not from Rena’s eyes, but from the outside.
It is because it is a memory that has already been established. Lynn looked at the young Rena speechlessly.
She looked like she was only about ten years old now, around Uni’s age. Rena was really small and cute.
Rena came out of the closet and held a book in her arms. She seemed to have ostracized her little brother because she didn’t want to be interrupted with her reading.
But just when Rena’s foot stepped into the carpet…
“Found you!”
“Oh my gosh!”
The door swung open and Angie reappeared, and Rena was startled and fell on her butt.
‘Ah.’
Lynn reflexively reached out his hand to support Rena, but of course, his hand did not reach Rena.
Meanwhile, Angie, who found Rena, ran to her with his short legs and protested.
“I knew it! Why were you hiding? You promised to make a new house with me today!”
“I didn’t hide. I just took a nap.”
“Don’t lie, you were hiding and reading a book!”
“No, I didn’t.”
“Then hurry up and let’s go make a new house.”
“Can’t you just ask the gardener to make it for you?”
As Rena responded half-heartedly and tried to chase him away, Angie’s little face was filled with anger.
So, the bubbly child threatened his sister with all his might.
“You said you’d do it! You promised! If you don’t keep your promise, you’ll go to hell!”
“Yes, I’d rather go to hell than play with you.”
But the older sister was inevitably stronger than her brother.
At Rena’s carefree reply, Angie became dazed as if shocked. Then his eyes were soon filled with tears and he shouted back.
“Why is playing with me worse than going to hell?! Sister, you’re an idiot!”
Angie eventually started to cry.
The little kid wailed because his sister broke her promise, and the big kid felt sorry when her younger brother cried.
“F-Fine. I was just kidding. Don’t cry. Sister will make a new house for you.”
Angie, who was crying with tears and runny nose, glared at his older sister, who apologized belatedly, fiercely. So Rena leaned back helplessly, while Angie finally wiped away his tears.
Angie, hanging from his sister’s neck, sniffled and warned.
“I will take revenge later when I grow up.”
“Okay, grow up and play by yourself.”
Although her brother had announced revenge, Rena pushed him on as if she was not surprised.
“What’s in your pocket?”
Rena realized that Angie’s pocket was full of something and asked.
“Acorns.”
“Why acorns?”
At Rena’s question, Angie sniffed, and squeaked in a bright voice.
“I’m going to decorate the roof of the new house. In the shape of a desert castle.”
“Does the roof of a desert castle look like an acorn? I thought it’s a pine cone.”
“No, that’s the eastern country. The pine cone-shaped roof made of tile and brick is the east, and in desert countries, the roof is round and only the tip is pointed. It really looks like an acorn.”
