"If you don't respect yourself, how can you expect others to respect you?"
"…"
The young girl kept staring, and Eun found it unnerving. There was something off about 'Kamui' but she couldn't quite figure out what it was. And not knowing unnerved her. So she avoided the little girl as well as she could without anyone realizing it – except, perhaps the girl's mother, but she seemed to think it was just how Eun was with strangers – but of course karma was a very certain thing and she was suffering its effects now.
Babysitting the newest addition to the family was not Eun's ideal way to spend her time, but she'd been given little choice.
Kamui wasn't a bad kid, quite the opposite really, always aiming to please, quiet and obedient, but… If anything, it only put Eun more on edge.
I can't believe I'm this paranoid about a kid…
Letting out a snort, part of her felt amused upon seeing the confused look on the girl's face.
"What's the best way to cook a lobster?"
"… W-what?"
Letting out a sigh, Eun shook her head.
"Nothing…"
The remaining hour was spent in silence, and as Sumeragi entered the room it was to the sight of Eun of praying.
For what though, he didn't know.
Of course, he didn't notice how her hair was a few inches shorter, or the sneaky grin his foster-daughter sent the dragon.
Woah, what's this? AN UPDATE?! WOAAAH?! This was supposed to be out ages ago and I apologize greatly for delaying it so long orz please forgive me everyone. Fates has taken up my time in combination with commissions, working, and a bunch of personal issues that are thankfully dealt with goshdarnit.
