Gundam Seed Wind and Blue Fall

夜谈

When the people at the banquet dispersed, it was already late at night, and Siegel walked back to the study alone, walking with difficulty, as if he had suffered a great blow.

In the study room, the lights were bright, Siegel looked up and saw the figure in the study room, he understood, he couldn't help but sighed deeply, then opened the door and walked in.

"Lux."

It was Lux sitting in the study.

Seeing Siegel coming in, she got up and called, "Father."

"Raphael is asleep?" Siegel walked behind the desk, raised his hand and rubbed the center of his brow.

"En." Lux nodded, "I'm here to ask my father a question."

Siegel rubbed his hands between his eyebrows, and he looked up at his little daughter, those blue eyes reflected a different brilliance under the light than in the past: "You ask."

"When I sent my sister back today, I saw my father and Uncle Sarah talking." At this point, Lacus clearly saw Siegel's movements froze, and her heart became more and more sure. She cleared her throat and continued: " Father, I know that you are under a lot of pressure recently, and my sister and I are still young, so we can't help you too much, but—as long as we can do it, we will definitely do it."

"Lax—"

"So, father, is there anything we need to do?" Lacus looked at Siegel with unshakable determination in his eyes.

Siegel, who was relieved in his heart, stroked the top of Lacus' hair, and murmured worriedly: "But, you are still too young..."

"It's because we are still young, father." Lux raised her head, "There are some things my father can't do, but my sister and I can."

Siegel squatted down and looked directly at Lacus: "Lacus, do you know what you are going to do? Father will never let you do what you don't want to do, do you understand?"

"I know, I understand." Lacus lowered her head slightly: "I really like to sing, but if my singing voice can become a force for my father, then I am willing! My father has done a lot for me and my sister, Everything we can have today is because of you, so as long as it can help you... From the time Lacus is willing to take vocal lessons, shouldn't father know Lacus's answer?"

Seeing Lacus's smile, Siegel felt more and more sour in his heart: "Lacus...Father is really ashamed of you..."

Lux's smile remained unchanged, and she stretched out her hands to hug her father with a vicissitudes of life: "Dad, we are your daughters!"

"Yes, you are all my good daughters."

"Father, can Lux ask you something?" After a while, Lux, who hesitated for a long time, still gritted his teeth and asked Siegel.

"It's about Raphael." Siegel knew it in his heart.

"En." Lacus half-covered her eyes, "Sister...Father, at least, at least, until my sister gets better, can you not let my sister... Lacus can take care of both of them for my sister, Lak Si can work very hard..." The blue eyes gradually showed water.

Siegel's heart warmed up, and he hugged Lacus tightly and comforted him softly: "I understand, even my father understands."

Sobbing in her father's arms, Lax's eyes were red from crying: "Sister, she has sacrificed too much for Lacus, and Lacus also wants to do something for her. My sister doesn't say it on the face, but I know, she really It's very painful... Every time I see my sister sitting there alone, Lux's heart hurts, and I will think of all this that Lux had to suffer, but my sister suffered it for me, I feel so guilty..."

Siegel listened to his little daughter's cry, and recalled some of the scenes he had seen, and felt great grief. He held back his tears and patted his daughter's back: "It's not your fault, Lacus..."

"Promise me, okay? Father..." Lacus raised her head.

"it is good."

"Father!" Lux cheered.

"But——" Siegel changed his tone, he stood up, looked down at Lacus hanging there pitifully, his eyes were full of smiles, he lowered his voice and said, "The condition is that you will Don’t sneak into father’s study any more to read those documents.”

"Ah!" Lax's face fell, "It turns out that father knew about it a long time ago, why didn't he tell Lax? Did he just watch his daughter's joke like this?" The last pair of eyes looked at Siegel full of accusations.

Siegel laughed secretly, and finally couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Father!"

Siegel's hearty laughter echoed in the study, outside the door, the night wind blew, and the door was closed quietly without a sound.

"Okay, father won't laugh at you anymore." Siegel withdrew his smile, and looked seriously at his little daughter, who was not half as tall as him, with a thoughtful flash of thought in his eyes, and finally made a decision.

"Lax, every afternoon from now on, come directly to father's study, don't come with Raphael secretly anymore, your sister is not energetic enough, let her rest." Siegel sat back behind the desk with complicated eyes .

"Really?" Lacus was delighted, did his father mean that he could read those documents openly?

"En. Starting tomorrow, father will teach you something. If father is busy, you can ask Jialia's assistant if you don't understand. I think he is also a good teacher."

"Thank you father!"

"Okay, don't get too excited, it's already late, go back and rest, and be careful not to disturb your sister." Siegel called the butler to come in and asked him to order someone to send Lacus back to the room.

"The daughter is gone, good night, father!" Lacus lifted the hem of her skirt and said goodbye with a lady's salute.

"Good night." Siegel watched Lux's leaving back and murmured, "Monia, what did I do right about this..."

Back in the room, Lacus turned away from the maid, and came to the door of Raphael's already dark room, "Sister, I will definitely work hard, definitely! Sister, you should get better too, get better soon!"

If it was to swear an oath, or to cheer herself up, after saying this, Lux walked back to her room to rest in peace.

In the room, Raphael sat quietly in the darkness.

After hearing Lacus' footsteps outside the door, Raphael slowly opened his blue-purple eyes, and there was no sleepiness in the clear pupils.She drove the wheelchair to the window, and the moonlight shone through the tulle curtains on the ground and on the person in front of the window.

Raphael stretched out her left hand, straight forward, as if touching the moonlight, but she turned around suddenly, with her palm facing upwards.

Looking at the paler hand under the moonlight, a storm was brewing in Raphael's eyes, and the deep lake began to stir up waves.

She said to herself word by word: "Rafael, you——are not strong enough!"

The open hand is already clenched, is it the moonlight that is broken in the palm of the hand, or is it something else?
