Haruna let out a muffled laugh against my chest, some of the tension leaving her body. But my attention shifted when I noticed Yuko turn her head slightly, her expression unreadable. Curious, I reached out with my Telepathy, tuning into her thoughts.
[Jack is really a good person... Even being so rich, he knows how to cook, take care of others... and he's so good to Haruna...]
I couldn't help but smile at the unwitting compliment, though a part of me wondered what she'd say if she ever found out the full truth about me. If she really knew, she'd probably kill me on the spot.
Haruna, still nestled against me, tilted her head up, her eyes bright with affection. "You always say things like that," she murmured, her voice soft. "But I don't want you to get into trouble because of me."
I chuckled, ruffling her hair playfully. "Trouble is my middle name," I teased. "Besides, Aunt Julie might be scary, but I've faced worse."
