He wanted to go to the upper realm and start preparing for the original novel's plot line, to directly take part in it.
But she was asking him to stay and play family.
That definitely wasn't his plan.
'Hah? Shit...'
Suddenly he felt her finger loosening on his chin, both hands dangling as if reading his face, with the clear sadness emitting from her gesture telling him that he just screwed up.
He had just become like those men from his old world who enjoyed having fun, but when it came to responsibility, they retreated. They wanted holes to release themselves but not to take responsibility for what came out of that hole.
"Don't be like that..."
Seeing her blink her eyes as if disappointed, he inhaled.
It was strange that he cared for her, and also how it pissed him off seeing her sad because of him. He thought that after having the children, he would leave soon enough, not stop here.
