26 #26~ Father and son (1/2)

Garren felt annoyed. He could have killed his own son. I need to give him a proper scolding when we get home... Garren then scans his surrounding. They were still a couple miles into the forest, which was not good. Even if they were in the kingdom's borders, anything could still happen. For example, bandits. Which were harder to deal with in big groups.

Garren: we need to leave before danger arrives. We have already been here for too long.

Garren looks at his two battered kids. The both of them just looked at him and nodded. Garren then glances at his son. Joseph was stealing quick glances at Lori. They were so fast that no normal human eyes could catch.

But that was no problem for Garren and his children. After all, Garren's family bloodline carries the Dragon genes. But Garren's was stronger of course. The white Dragon within him enhances his abilities as a Dragon Keeper.

Garren frowns at Joseph but does not say anything. He then speaks to break the silence.

Garren: alright! Let's get going then! Men, forward!

Joseph lightens up! He quickly glances at the carriage door, and then at Lori. I will be a gentleman and open the door for my baby sister! Will she start to like me if I do? Joseph smiles and starts walking strides to the carriage. But before he could...

Joseph: ....

Garren notices Joseph's intentions. He frowns again but quickly rushes there before Joseph. Garren then quickly opens the carriage door.

He steps aside and allows Clover to hop in first. Joseph freezes again in shock. He did it again! He just opened the carriage door for her! I don't get it? When did he start being...nice? Joseph stares at his father openly this time in wonder.

Garren senses Joseph's stare as he watches Lori step in the carriage. When she steps inside, Garren looks at his son. Instead of astonishment that was on his face, there was now a hardened face full of jealousy and anger. Garren looks at his son with amusement.

Ohhh? I see now...seems like my son is jealous? Garren then smirks at his son.

Joseph gets even more mad. He knows...or he wouldn't be teasing me like this! Joseph gives his father a frustrated stare. Garren gives a little chuckle.

[System]: omg...wow that chuckle....I think I have a new crush! Kyaaaaa!

Lori's eyes twitched when she heard Flora's words that were echoing in her head. Lori sighs. I just want to go homeeeeee! What is taking those two so long? Lori looks out the carriage window. Her father and older brother were having a starring contest.

Both were glaring at each other. What the hell? What Did I just miss? Lori then shakes her head and relaxes her body in a more comfortable position.

Oh well~~ not my problem~~ man I can't wait to get back so I can take a long nice hot bath full of bubbles! Lori sighs in content. She then closes her eyes and decides to take a nap.

Meanwhile....

Garren: you shit head! Why did you try to punch me?

Just a second ago Joseph charged at Garren. Killing intent in his eyes. Garren was astonished! His son never disrespected him like this before. His other two children always respected and obeyed him. He glares at Joseph. Joseph does not say anything he just glares at his father.

Garren: son..you are taking this to far now.

Joseph squeezes his red eyes in frustration.

Joseph: promise me...

Garren looks at his son confused.

Garren: what?
