Back inside the office, the little family was having their best moments on the sofa.
Baelfire and Baelfair both decided to sit on their father's lap as their mom was not feeling well.
The cubs were talking, actually it's only the blabbermouth Baelfair who was talking endlessly while Baelfire would only add or omit some information Fair forgot or added to exaggerate her story.
Veronica couldn't help herself but to feel sentimental at this moment. Unfortunately, she wasn't able to witness the reuniting moment of her children and their father earlier, but she's still feeling very happy and thankful.
Everything somehow went smoothly and her father and children instantly got along quite well like the years of their father's absence didn't happen at all!
The couple looked over each other, their eyes filled with gentleness, happiness and love as they listened to their cubs' animated story of their adventure while on their way to Country P.
Even if still unhappy about what her younger brother did, Veronica was somehow guilty and thankful to him for taking good care of her kids. After all, her siblings indeed had been nothing but too doting and spoiling of her twins.
But of course, she won't tell that to Edward as she would still love to play her 'mad' ground.
If anything, she's just scared that this might end up with her kids spoiled to rotten seeing as Rawlf was too in love with their cubs to the point of him giving them whatever their heart desires.
But Veronica also knew that Rawlf would be a good father. Only that she hopes he will balance it with being a good disciplinarian as well.
Speaking of her younger brother, he has been on the floor for another good thirty-five minutes now and he was still laying there.
Veronica was about to move to check on him but well, the young man suddenly stood up, like nothing happened with an offended look on his face.
"Sis ah! That was so painful it felt like death", Edward sounded aggrieved. And as if hurt added, "And no one even checked if I was still alive. Even the nephew and niece who I dearly love totally forgot about their doting uncle after finally meeting their father."
Rawlf smirked as he looked over his cubs lovingly.
"I was watching over you Uncle Edward. You're breathing earlier so that means you're still alive", Baelfire responded
Baelfair giggled. 'I shawyou (saw you) move anku (uncle)!!'
Both Rawlf and Veronica laugh out loudly at their cubs antics. Well, they didn't expect this from them.
Actually they were the ones who only remembered about the young man just now. But the twins who they thought to be lost in their chatter were concerned and were watching over their Uncle Edward to see if he's still alive..
"They're our cubs", Rawlf commented.
"Well, what to do?", Veronica replied haughtily.
Edward who just recovered was having an incredulous expression on his face.
"Wow, you're some kind of a family!" Edward was lost what to even say.
Happy enough, Rawlf ignored the young man and just enjoyed the presence of his woman and their cubs.
Being ignored, Edward was about to walk out to find food to eat after exhausting all his energy trying to recover from that deadly punch of his sister.
"Where are you going?" Veronica, seeing her escaping brother, stopped him.
"To find food. I'm hungry, you know! I won't escape, I have nowhere to sleep tonight if I ever escape."
"No need. I notified my Secretary to bring food inside", Rawlf informed the young man, after all, he is his younger brother and he has no choice but to be kind to him as well.
