I Was Sick of Loving You - I Was Sick of Loving You chapter 65
65 – father-in-law and son-in-law, father and daughter
The day when the seeds of spring begin to bloom on dry branches. Arrived in Minnesota, the central city of the dukedom.
Originally, it was supposed to take more than a month, but with the help of the Magic Tower, with the princess’s ability, she entered the inner city of Minnesota with teleport magic.
“We have finally arrived. It was only about three months, but it seems like it’s been a long time since I came back.”
“Like you said, it felt really long.”
Various emotions passed and scattered on the princess’s face.
“I have to report the past to my father, so you guys can rest.”
“yes~. see you later sister I will show you to your room.”
“Yes, please.”
After the conversation between Rachel and the princess was over, I opened my mouth to bring out the words I was holding back.
“Princess Iris, do you remember the request I made on the first day?”
A slight bewilderment crept over the princess’s face.
“Of course I remember. It would be good to talk about it again later.”
Saying that, the princess left the seat a little faster. I was puzzled by that look.
“Brother, do not stand idly by and follow me. You have to tell me where the brother is, so that I can rest.”
“Yeah, got it.”
At Rachel’s urging words, I put my doubts in and followed her. After walking for a long time in such a wide hallway, she stopped.
“This is your room.”
She said and opened the door. The door opened, and a man caught my eye. rare black hair. Neatly trimmed beard and sharp eyes.
My heart started beating violently at the sight of a man whose appearance was too similar to that of the person he admired.
“Welcome. I’ve been waiting son-in-law.”
With those words, the man’s gaze turned to me.
The word son-in-law confirmed my guess, and my raging heart started to run as if it were about to explode.
“I want to talk with my son-in-law, so could you please step aside?”
“Yes. See you later brother.”
Rachel left those words and left. When Rachel left, emotions began to run wild beyond control.
“Don’t stand there blankly, sit down.”
Hearing the words of the person he admired, he sat down, forcibly compensating his overflowing feelings. Listening to the sound of my heart exploding, I focused my attention on my ears to listen to his words.
“I heard that my daughter was coming, and I thought I should see you first, so I came here.”
After he said that, he bowed toward me. A feeling of bewilderment came over him.
“Thank you. You left to break the curse, and the thoughts left behind by the damn witch are gone. Without you, this day wouldn’t have come. Thank you so much.”
Thanks to the person he admired, he didn’t know what to do and fell into a sense of bewilderment.
“And I apologize for everything I said in the past. Because I was not good enough, I took my anger out on you who were innocent. I’m so sorry.”
The words of apology followed by gratitude added to the embarrassment.
“I don’t know if it’ll be a reward, but I’ll give you anything you want.”
In an incomprehensible situation, he couldn’t handle the embarrassment that swelled up like it was about to explode, so he opened his mouth.
“Duke. Please take your word for a moment.”
A look of doubt crossed the duke’s face.
“I don’t know if that sounds weird, but I don’t deserve to hear that.”
“What do you mean?”
“According to the princess, I have lost my memory. So I can’t understand the duke’s words, and I’m not qualified to listen.”
Several emotions passed through the duke’s eyes.
“Could you elaborate on that?”
At the request of the duke, I laid out all the words I had heard from the princess.
“I heard that.”
“Well, if I had known this would happen, I should have met my daughter first.”
The duke stroked his beard and made a complicated expression. Then he looked into my eyes again and opened his mouth.
“Did you say that you don’t have the right to listen because you don’t have memories?”
“That’s right.”
The Duke smiled and opened his mouth.
“You sound like a stern old man. It doesn’t matter if you have memories or not. The value of what you have cultivated is not something like that.
And the reason why you lost your memory was because you lifted your daughter’s curse, didn’t it? So I can’t ask more about it. So please accept my thanks.”
The Duke said that and bowed his head again. Even though I felt burdened by that appearance, I couldn’t deny it because I heard such words.
“If you say so, I will accept it.”
“Thank you.”
The duke smiled deeply and took something out of his bosom. A bottle containing a brilliant red liquid came out of the Duke’s hand. It was followed by two clear glasses, which were placed on the table.
“I’ve been sober for a while, but I can’t stop drinking on days like this. Have a drink, too.”
Saying so, he handed out a cup full of wine. I took the cup carefully and carefully bumped into the duke’s cup.
The sound of glasses clinking echoed, and he drank. Unlike other liquors, there is no bitterness, and the rich aroma and clean, hot sweetness spread in the mouth.
Unlike other alcoholic beverages, it passed easily, as if the tongue was satisfied with the taste.
“It’s nice to drink it after a long time.”
Seeing the easy-going appearance of the person I admired, I felt a little strange. As I was feeling that feeling, my glass was filled with new wine.
“Although it is a rare drink that is difficult to obtain, it is prepared for a day like this, so drink it to your heart’s content.”
At the Duke’s words, I emptied my glass again. Then the glass was filled again, then the glass was emptied again and it was repeated. Repeatedly, the heat began to rise.
“It’s good that you drink well. You can drink it like this often later.”
The Duke’s voice mixed with joy filled the room, and I heard the door open. After that, the princess’s voice was heard.
“Your father is here. It took a long time to find. By the way, what are you doing now?”
“I was talking with my son-in-law over a drink.”
“Son-in-law… son-in-law, son-in-law.”
The princess repeated the same words like a broken golem.
“No, isn’t your father quitting drinking?”
“Yeah, I hung up. And I started over.”
“What do you mean? Are you saying that you will die again like the old days?”
The princess’s voice rose a little, and the duke’s wine glass was thrown out of her hand and placed on the table.
“Daughter, sit here.”
The duke tapped on the seat next to him and said, and the princess quietly sat down.
“Daughter, I’m sorry. I was not good at it, so I gave you a lot of burden, made a big mistake with wrong thoughts, and showed you an ugly side again. I am so sorry.”
“father…”
“I don’t live like that anymore. It’s very late, but I want to live as a proud father to you. Will you give this poor father a chance?”
“Father is not ugly. You’re just lost for a moment. So don’t talk like that.”
“Thank you for saying that.”
The duke said that and hugged the princess.
The way the father and daughter share old feelings touches one side of the heart, but I envy it. I’m so envious because it’s a relationship I can’t have.
As the immature emotions created by the thirst for infidelity spread, the Duke’s voice was heard.
“I called you and showed you an embarrassing appearance. I’m sorry.”
“no. Rather nice to see.”
It was embarrassingly good to see.
I swallowed the gossip of my immature mind.
“Thank you for saying that.”
The warmth contained in those words pushes away the immature mind a little. And shame creeps into the immature mind.
Just when I was feeling so embarrassed, the glass was refilled.
“Now that the relationship with your daughter has been resolved, let’s start over.”
For some reason, it felt nice and warm.
“Father, please give me my cup too.”
“Daughter, this is strong drink for you.”
“it’s okay. I’ve gotten used to alcohol stronger than this.”
At the princess’s words, the duke’s eyes fluttered.
“What do you mean?”
“It just happened to be there. We’ll tell you later. So, give me a chance today to match my father’s hobbies.”
Various emotions passed through the duke’s face, and a faint smile remained at the end.
“After living a long time, the day will come when my daughter hangs out with me.”
Saying that, the duke took out a glass from his bosom and filled it up.
“It is a happy day to see my daughter and son-in-law hanging out together. So for today, put down all the complicated things and drink and enjoy as much as you can.”
The duke’s voice dissipated, and the sound of clinking glasses filled the room. Then the sound of passing alcohol and conversation filled the room.
That time had quenched an insatiable thirst, and the scars deep in my heart had become unrecognizable.
