Together

"She doesn't bite?"

"I don't know, I've never seen her bite anyone"

"Let's go see her"

Getting up from the floor, Christian smiled and looked at his mother "You're small now"

"You grew a lot, how tall are you now?" looking carefully at Christian, Eva smiled lovingly.

"190 centimeters"

"You're already 10 centimeters taller than me..."

"I think being perfect comes with great height"

"You know your genes come from me, don't you?"

"I tend to forget that" Arriving in front of the vehicle, Christian stretched out his hands dramatically and exclaimed "Meet my new beauty!"

"Is that the vehicle that man in jail gave you?"

"Yes"

"It's pretty nice, but do you have a license?"

"Yes"

"Did you take the test?"

"No, the old man used his contacts"

Pulling the key out of the vehicle, Christian pressed a button, then reached over and lifted the door.

Stretching out his arm, Christian spoke "Up my girl"

"Hisss~" Wrapping herself around Christian's arm, Lilith slowly crawled over his shoulder.

"It's... big" Feeling shivers at the sight of the snake, Eva smiled forcedly and spoke.

"Yes, I give her a lot of food" Stroking the snake's head, Christian looked at it closely in the eyes and spoke "The woman in front of you is Eva, my beautiful mother, treat her well"

"Hisss~" Stroking her head with Christian's cheek, Lilith hissed.

Looking at the snake with surprise, Eva moved closer and murmured "She really seems to love you..."

Slowly stretching out her hand, Eva managed to caress Lilith.

"Wow..." Looking at his mother, Christian murmursed

"Why that 'wow'?" Stroking the snake, Eva asked.

"Lilith never let herself be touched by anyone... I think she really understood that you're my mother"

"Maybe it's because of the smell?"

"Lilith is very smart" Grabbing his military backpack, Christian looked at his mother and smiled "Let's go"

Lowering the door of the vehicle, Christian locked it and walked back to the house.

Taking a deep breath inside the house, Christian smiled happily.

Setting his bag down on the couch, Christian stretched his arm towards the ground and spoke "Tour your new home, but don't go too far away or you'll get eaten by some bird"

"Hisss~" hissing, Lilith slowly crawled up Christian's arm, then reached the ground and calmly mdves forward around the place.

"Mom, can you give them the warning to the guards? I don't want them to harm my snake because of some mistake"

"Okay" Standing to one side of Christian, Eva just stared at him with a soft smile.

"We'll also prepare a room for Lilith; I'll buy her branches and create a warm place for her inside a guest room we don't use"

"If you want, we'll put two rooms together and give her more space"

"That would be great, we could add a bathtub or something, I don't know what kind of snake she is, but maybe she likes water"

"I'll take care of that"

"I love you mom" Moving closer to Eva, Christian hugged her gently.

"*Sniff*" Sniffing Christian, Eva smiled as she smelled the scent she missed so much.

"Mother, now that I think about it, your personality has changed quite a bit, I notice you're very... calm?" Pursing his lips while looking at the woman's face, Christian spoke.

"You could say it's a side effect of running companies"

"My mother became quite a leader" Kissing her forehead, Christian pulled away from Eva and smiled "How do I look? Am I handsome?"

"You're the most beautiful man I've ever seen in my life"

Looking at his mother in silence, Christian really felt complete after a long time.

So many emotions came back to him in a sudden way, it made it hard for him to know what to do.

He wanted to laugh, scream, jump, cry, but most of all, he wanted to hug the woman and not let go for a long time.

"I'm going to see those dwarves" Smiling excitedly, Christian grabs his backpack and speaks.

"Go, I will tell the staff to prepare everything for the snake..."

"Thanks mom!" approaching Eva, Christian kissed her forehead and turned quickly.

"Do you want me to fix you something?"

"Coffee would be nice, but I want it with sugar, not salt"

"Understood, salt and no sugar" Nodding with a smile, Eva looked lovingly at her little boy quickly going upstairs, then brought her hands to her face and quickly wiped away the tears she let escape.

"He's back, my boy..." Smiling foolishly, Eva walked towards the kitchen, feeling like she would float with happiness at any moment.

Hurrying up the stairs, Christian reached the third floor and saw the door to the blonde girl's playroom.

Dropping his backpack on the floor, Christian slowly approached the door and opened it with followed.

"I'm making weapons"

"Yes, I'm getting everything ready to blow up the base"

Looking at the girl-

Correction.

Looking at the woman talking while looking at the screen, Christian smiled softly at how much his little astronaut has grown.

Long blonde hair fell down her back, a beautiful face, but with sharp eyes that Christian was very reminded of Eva, full lips and a truly beautiful smile to his eyes.

"Hailie..."

Frowning, Hailie turned her gaze quickly, then opened her eyes wide and looked at Christian.

Halting all her movements, Hailie stared at the man in disbelief.

But a few seconds later, her eyes reddened and she quickly rose from her seat, then ran to him and exclaimed "BROTHER!!!"

Opening his arms, Christian accepted the little girl with a smile, then wrapped his arms around her back, bearing her tears.

"My little Hailie has grown up!"

Looking up with tears streaming from her eyes, Hailie whispered as she touched his face "R-really are you?"

"No, I'm just a person who looks like me" Smiling teasingly, Christian takes Hailie's nose and squeezes it, instantly making the young girl smile.

"Don't squeeze me" Frowning as she puffs out her cheeks, Hailie spoke as best she could, a rather comical voice coming out.

"You don't know how much I missed you" Hugging the woman, Christian kisses her forehead "But I came back to stay, you'll have to put up with me on a daily basis"

"I'll try" Hailie smiled, then looked at him closely and spoke "You're as tall as a giraffe"

"And you're as small as a leprechaun. How tall are you? 175 centimeters?"

"176!"

Lifting Hailie off the ground, Christian quickly flipped her over and hoisted her onto his shoulder.

"You're still an elf to me!" Laughed Christian with amusement.

"W-what are you doing!?" Asserting herself in fear, Hailie exclaimed.

"I'll show your people what a crybaby you are" Stepping closer towards the computer, Christian speaks up.

"N-no, wait, don't show yourself!"

"Why not?" Pausing momentarily, Christian asks with interest.

"You don't know what people are like on the internet, they'll harass you!"

"How much do they know about you?" curiously, Christian asks.

"Unfortunately everything, and all this thanks to a certain person who showed my pictures as a child on TV!" looking at Christian angrily, Hailie replied.

"But you were so cute, I had the urge to show you off to everyone!" Increasing her pace, Christian smiled.

"No, wait, don't!" Quickly wiping away her tears, Hailie exclaimed.

Smiling, Christian comes in front of the camera and looks at the computer "Hello world, today I have a unique image for you!"

Moving around, Christian shows Hailie with her hands covering her face "My cute little sister is a crybaby!"

"..." Silently, Hailie refused to let herself be seen.

Looking at the screen that only had a chat, Christian read it curiously.

"Wow!"

"It's Purple's brother?"

"Wasn't he in jail?"

"What a beauty..."

Turning his gaze, Christian asked curiously "Purple?"

"I-It's my name in video games..."

"Why Purple? Weren't you called HailieGamer123-?"

"NO!!!" Hailie shouted, quickly covering Christian's mouth.

Looking down at the embarrassed woman, Christian smiled softly, then pulled her down and kissed her forehead "I'll go see Alan, you go on about your business."

"You're leaving now you left a mess!" Angrily, Hailie folded her arms and exclaimed.

"Hoh...now you're raising your voice at me?" Narrowing his eyes, Christian asked in a calm voice.

Widening her eyes, Hailie quickly shook her head "I-I was joking"

"I see" Returning to his smile, Christian waved his hand towards the camera and spoke "See you later~"

Walking out of the room, Christian left an embarrassed Hailie who looked towards the camera with a blank stare.

"..." Fixing her tousled hair, Hailie sat up and looked towards the camera "Forget what just happened."

Her eyes reddened, her complexion flushed, her hair tousled.

Really for the woman's followers it must be quite a pleasant sight.

But when Hailie was still processing everything that happened, a voice came into her headset "Hailie, was it really Christian!?"

"Maya...not now"

With his backpack in hand, Christian walked with a big smile towards Alan's room, only to drop the bag on the floor and open the door quietly.

Looking around, Christian found a handsome young man sitting in front of a desk.

Looking at the young man's serious face, Christian smiled, then shouted "ALAN!!!"

Startled, Alan turned his eyes angrily, but seeing the person in front of the door, he opened his eyes wide.

"..."

"..."

With a few seconds of silence, Alan quickly rose from his seat and ran to Christian, then hugged him tightly in silence.

"..."

"..."

Returning the hug, Christian remained silent, looking softly at Alan, who was sobbing quietly.

After a few minutes, Alan looked up with snot and tears on his face and spoke "P-please don't leave me again..."

Fluffing the young man's hair, Christian smiled "Why would I leave you? I came to stay"

"I-I was a fool, everything you said was t-true and I missed you so much *Sniff*" Wiping away tears, Alan spoke in a sad voice.

"It's okay, we're all fools as kids" Stroking Alan's hair, Christian smiled softly "The important thing is that I'm here now and the family is complete again"

"Mn" Wiping his face with his clothes, Alan nodded with a small smile.

"Good, go on about your business for now, I'll go put my things away and get settled" Shaking Alan's hair, Christian smiled, and took his backpack.

"Mn" Nodding silently, Alan looks with a small smile at Christian who walks towards the main room.

Stretching his body, Christian yawned and looks around his room, realizing it was still exactly the same as it was when he left.

Looking up at the cloudy, dark sky outside, Christian smiled and laid down on the bed, staring dazedly up at the ceiling.

Removing his gloves, Christian threw them on the bed, then took off both jackets and was left in just his shirt.

Taking off his tie, Christian put it aside and carefully took off the cufflink that Dimitri gave him, to leave it inside the bedside table.

Undoing 2 buttons on his shirt, Christian sighed contentedly and laid down quietly.

Glancing at his watch, Christian yawned and muttered "8 o'clock"

Getting out of bed, Christian looked down at his bag and pursed his lips "I'll put my stuff away in a while"

Leaving the room, Christian walked down the hallways and glanced at Hailie's playroom, then smiled and creeped closer.

Opening the door in absolute silence, Christian looks at the young girl so focused and smiles fondly, then attaching himself to the wall and moving silently to her back.

Holding his finger to his lips, Christian looks towards the camera and indicates silence, then stood right behind Hailie and curiously observed what she did.

"Hahahahaha, you suck!" Crashing a helicopter, Hailie laughed loudly.

The game Hailie was in looked pretty interesting.

Forest, jungles, deserts and resourceful constructions.

While Christian watches in first person as Hailie makes weapons by quickly moving the mouse and at the same time cooks food.

In some ways the game is similar to one from Christian's past life, Rust.

But suddenly, Hailie casually glanced back, causing her to startle and hit her leg on the desk.

"Ugh!" gritting her teeth, Hailie turned to Christian and yelled "You scared me!"

"Sorry"

"..." Pursing her lips, Hailie squints at Christian for a few seconds, then sighed and looks back at the screen.

"Do you have any more computers? Mine's already kind of obsolete."

"I have some in my room, take out the one you want" Without taking her eyes off the screen, Hailie replied.

"Thank you~" Kissing Hailie's cheek, Christian smiled and walked out of the place, leaving an embarrassed woman in front of the computer.

Walking down the stairs, Christian walked happily and arrived toward the kitchen, watching his mother who was just pouring coffee.

Approaching her from behind, Christian hugged her and kissed her cheek "What is such a beautiful woman doing in these dangerous places"
