Although the war seemed like a popular topic these days, Ferdelâs twins were also a piece of big and major news people wrote the announcement of their birth on the front page of Agrigent Today.
The whole family gathered to celebrate; even the Marquis and Marchioness Vitervo returned from their vacation.
Marquis and Marchioness Vitervo were very kind and generous people, and I could not believe that they were Ferdelâs parents. Should I say that they were⦠too normal? The little problem was that even though they were not my real grandfather and grandmother, I felt like they were my real grandparents. However, I was merely thinking that way because they are so nice to me.
âLook at me! Do I look cute?â
âWhat is that? Stop it right now.â
âAre you saying that Iâm not cute?â
âStop it before I get angry.â
âSil, you are so cold!â
No, I thought that her being cold was not the problem. âItâs you, youâre the problem.â
He finally put childrenâs pacifiers that he was putting in his mouth after hearing Siviaâs words. Thatâs the chancellor of this country⦠I shook my head while drinking orange juice.
Just looking at him made it hard to believe that people used to call him a genius since he was young. The Vitervo family was a traditional warrior family, and many of their generals commanded the royal soldiers for generations. Then came the mutiny, and with it⦠the rising intellectual star of Agrigent and first chancellor from the Vitervo family, Ferdel, rose into power.
Itâs just as Ferdel said. He literally had everything. He was born as the youngest son to a family with many daughters; heâs so smart that heâs called the genius of the century; he even had great looks, and his family had power. Then thereâs his wife Silvia.
âPrincess, donât you think Vall takes after me more?â
âOur Sanse looks more like me!â
Valltorte and San Sebastian.
That was the name of Silvia and Ferdelâs twins. It was difficult to tell them apart when they were first born, but itâs easier now that they had grown more. I guessed Valltorte and San Sebastian were not identical twins. Their hair color was also different. Still, it surprised me that neither of them had Silviaâs pink hair. Sanse had her pink eyes though.
âPrincess, who do you think the twins take after more? Me or Ferdel?â
These two⦠should quit asking me these kinds of questions.
