Between The Leongs
Time Family

"Grandma, Grandpa!" Asteria's girang continues to release his grip from Sabrina and Navis when he sees both Navis parents who have arrived first at the rental of snowboarding equipment. Followed by the advice that did not tire Sabrina blurted out every time Asteria did something worrying.

"Eri. be careful dear,"

Navis stroked her fiance's shoulders, giving her the understanding that Asteria would be fine.

"Mom, Dad.." Sapa Sabrina is friendly.

The two of them took turns hugging Rosalia and Pilyoung while exchanging news. Navis' parents both looked very healthy, and fit despite only taking a long flight last night. Though the age of both is not the time of the prime stage.

"Where are the others?" Sabrina asked not to see the Navis brothers there.

"Kiyoung, Jinyoung hasn't been to the chairlift long. I told them to stay for a while waiting for you, but Jinyoung was too enthusiastic and whined. So, Kiyoung obeyed him. It may have gone up by the time you passed the chairlift." Rosalia. By his side Pilyoung held Asteria, listening to Asteria blabbering at length regarding her pleasant days as long as they did not meet.

Minyoung, Gayoung, Eva, and Willy are temporarily unable to take a family vacation in regards to their respective affairs.

"Then we get ready too. Before the sun goes down." Navis's proposal was approved by all.

Because the snowboarding area is selected quite far, Navis does not want to bother filling the trunk of the car with personal snowboarding equipment. He deliberately ordered a special package of complete facilities offered by his choice of resort, even he wanted for a few days on vacation passed by happiness and tranquility for all of them. Especially, for Sabrina.

Sabrina has been through a lot of hardships lately. And Navis felt guilty, at least he tried to create a pause for Sabrina to calm his mind and heart, aided by the existence of his family who already considered Sabrina part of them indirectly supporting Sabrina emotionally. While Navis prepares something else to please Sabrina.

One of the staff was pairing Asteria's snowboarboarding equipment, as she held onto her stomach and put on a hardened face. "Mama, Eri is starting to feel it!"

Two pairs of different-age couples sitting on the side of Aesteria are immediately fixed on the main star, between confusion and worry.

"What's up, baby? What is Eri rasain? Stomach pain?" Sabrina bombarded Asteria with questions. Asteria shook her head weakly, Asteria then said, "Feeling hungry after playing in the snow. Eri has to eat a lot of meat later, Ma. Eri's afraid of turning into a monster when hungry."

Inviting laughter from everyone, including the staff left with them.

"Quiet Eri. There's Grandpa, Eri can eat as much as Eri wants, grandpa pays." Timpal Pilyoung with the rest of her laughter.

Sabrina gave a sigh of relief, "Geez, thank you Grandpa. Mama survived bankruptcy today thanks to Grandpa. Eri is more terrible when dealing with meat than when hungry."

Everyone enjoyed Sabrina's joke.

Asteria loves meat. He ate his first meat at the age of two, Sabrina, who rarely stocked meat in the refrigerator due to the strict diet her mother demands in order to maintain the ideal body as a famous model began to include meat as a mandatory ingredient that goes into her monthly shopping list.

Just a few weeks ago Asteria has not eaten meat, of its own volition want to try a vegan diet. When asked why, he was curious. As a good parent, Sabrina just make sure the Asteria food menu always contains balanced nutrition.

"Well, the sauna here is bigger than in our apartment. You can order food, and drink too." Admired Asteria who first visited the sauna in public places.

Rosalia and Sabrina exchanged a small laugh. Recall the exact same Asteria reaction as Sabrina when Rosalia first took her to a public sauna as well. Given Amber was a materialist, Sabrina and her siblings were raised to be born into a royal family. Where might they be introduced to a place like this, if not for someone else telling.

"Eri likes it, honey?" Rosalia asked while pairing the towel she already shaped like a hat with two scrolls on each side to the head of Asteria.

"Yes, Grandma. Eri likes!"

"Would you try ordering the ice?"

Asteria's eyes grew bigger, full of enthusiasm. Under Sabrina's consent, she finally ordered a drink for the three of them. Leave Rosalia and Sabrina alone in the sauna room.

"How are you feeling now? Is it better?" Rosalia spoke up.

Understanding the direction Rosalia spoke, Sabrina carved a smile on her lips. "Much better, Mom."

Rosalia stroked his shoulders gently. Although Sabrina claimed to be better, she could also feel the worry that Sabrina felt as a mother.

"Sorry Mom, in the future the name Navis will continue to be dragged because of Sabrina's problem. Must be Mom and the others are having trouble too."

"Don't apologize. It's not your fault. There is nothing wrong with fighting for the happiness of Asteria's life. Who cares what others say. We're all there for you, so don't hesitate to ask Mom or Dad for help, son."

Tears must have been dripping down Sabrina's cheeks. Rosalia's words were the most Sabrina wanted to hear from her meeting with Lucas. That he did the right thing. As well as the support of a Mother figure that unfortunately he can not get to his biological mother.

Instead of supporting her, Amber gets angry when she sees Sabrina coming out of the vvip dining room where they are supposed to mediate, realizing Sabrina has said something out of her control. Though he had told Sabrina not to say anything as long as she had not entered, accompanying Sabrina. It just so happened that he had to rearrange the shooting schedule of Sabrina's youngest sister who had suddenly vacationed abroad without telling Amber first.

Rosalia wiped Sabrina's wet cheeks, and carried her into a loving embrace.

"You always said you wanted to be a good mother like Mom, right? But, Sabrina, you're the best Mother figure I've ever met. I just want you to know that." Honest Rosalia. His opinion is armed with his own life experience.

According to Rosalia, Sabrina belongs to the category of women who are destined as a mother. She was born to be a mother, without the need to learn her ways. Without needing to care about her childhood history how, naturally she would only do what her maternal instincts said.

"We protect Mother's grandchildren together." Rosalia muttered trying to strengthen Sabrina.

Sabrina's head was nodding regularly over Rosalia's shoulder. His heart slowly felt a chill full of calmness. "Thank you, Mom."

Rosalia's warm personality touched her heart. The same personality, which made him fall in love with Navis. Sabrina is grateful she is still surrounded by good people like them.
