Even though, his voice came too harsh, he made her realise her mistake. In one way, she is grateful for his wise words to her, but she is feeling so ashame to admit her faults. However, in the end, she  tried her best to process what he told and began to reflect on her self and on her actions, and such more guilt tripped inside her, with her understanding his words and the depth they held in them. 

Tears welled up to the brim of her eyes, she could barely hold them up, yet, she didn't want to cry in front of Felix and stayed still, motionless. She is feeling embarrassed to meet eye to eye with him. She didn't even dare to budge an inch, as she stood rooted on the ground, her head hung low, trying to cover her vulnerable self.

Felix knew what she might be going through. A wild guess told him that she might let those eyes pour out if he continued his lecture, so he decided to speak nicely to her.

It's not that he intentionality spoke harshly before, it's that different people grasp the situations depending on how we explained them. To make Aeinshia listen to his words, he need to calmly approach her and speak logic to her, while speaking to someone like Lucia, he need to be harsh at first and then slowly sweet talk. That's when, she will try to understand others point and mark those words in brain. So he approached her accordingly.

Since the cold treatment ended, it's time for the shower of love and sweet talk.

Felix didn't have any intention to approach her, instead, he called for her near him, " Come here, " He ordered her, his voice unlike before, carrying a wave of care and warmth in it.

Lucia didn't say anything and obediently strode towards him, her head still hung low. Unlike before, instead of bending to reach her height, suddenly he lifted her off the ground, leaving her in shock momentarily and following it he securely held her in his arms, to which, she reflexively reacted by wrapping her hands around his neck, to gain steadiness and his support.

Felix's heart cracked to pieces witnessing her weeping non-stoppedly, caressing her back to comfort her, he continued, " We are one family, where we find each other's support. We won't judge you by your actions our little angel. If you do good, then we will praise you and if you are going through wrong path, it's our responsibility to correct you. You are still a kid, who is still learning and just began to look at this world above your mothers shoulders. Just think it as a lesson and do take my words to heart. " He spoke, not brushing away his harsh words by sugar coating them. He need to remind her. She need to understand. That's his purpose of pointing out everytime. 

He then continued, " Do you really think outsiders would ever dare to call you by using names as little Lucia or anything else? Only people who loves you will call you such way and family is a part of it. We all address you 'little' despite your age because we all love you and you are our little cute princess. And it's all your fault, who told you to be born this cute and adorable? Who could hold your cuteness. Your cuteness is irresistible that we all fell in love with our little princess Lucia? Now, tell me, do you still dont want us to not address you as our little princess? But let me remind you, no matter what, you are and will be our cute little princess forever, " He spoke while flattering her.

Lucia didn't speak anything, but she responded by her head denying it. Yes, she denied, buy she isn't denying anymore to not call her 'little '. However, he thought it must be it and tried to  cheer her up. 

" Ho! You still unsatisfied with me? Should I start addressing you as princess Lucia seazle? " He asked, he too pouted his lips, and kept a wronged expressed on his face, which is hilarious to look at.

A crease formed on her forehead listening to his words. She clearly told that's not what she wants to deny it.

" Forget it, " She thought , and slightly raised her head to peek at him, " Hahaa~ Brother Felix, you are so funny with a pout hahhaa~ . " She laughed out loudly, her tears still streaming down her cheeks which were held back, which made her look even more cute, while doing both actions at same time, crying and laughing.

" Oh my god!! You finally broke into laugh. Then can I assume our princess is not mad at this brother anymore? " He asked her, observing her reaction, to which she nodded her head vehemently, still finding it heard to open her mouth, feeling her entire throat in pain, as she held back her tears for a long time.

Petting her head, he spoke, " One of the best roads to self-improvement is acceptance of personal mistakes and correcting them. Correction is the tool for turing worse to better and make it best. So, be humble to see your mistakes, courageous to admit them, and wise enough to correct them. The ultimate goal is to make a better version of yourself compared to before. Understood? "

"Yes, " She replied curtly, her voice came out so hard and raspy from her crying.

Pinching her nose, he continued to teach her, he didn't know why, he just wanted to teach her as much as possible today itself. In mind, he decided to check up on her in future. It's rare for him to spend time with his family members and even if he ever spent time, he usually won't get bonded this easily. 

Nonetheless, the case isn't that today. Without any realisation to himself, he began to take Lucia's responsibility and the case being in his own accord made it more surprising for him to believe it. Nevertheless, now that he already decided, he won't back down in teaching this kid. 

" Remember our little devil, no one in our family got any hard feelings for you. I wish you could take decisions wisely and be good while taking your judgement. If we ever do mistakes, then accepting those mistakes is also great. One should always have even more courage to accept them, compared to the courage they got to do them. To be more precise, those who accept their mistakes are courageous than anyone else. So if you ever see anyone accepting them and want to reflect on themself truly, then you need to weigh both pros and cons and act accordingly. Remember, one could forgive mistakes, but not crimes, " His latter sentence came alittle heavily, so that his words would be remembered by her for a long time, maybe, she won't forget his words for her entire life too. 

Lucia nodded her head vehemently and spoke, " I will surely remember it, ".

" Good girl, " He petted her head while saying so and asked her, " So, what your purpose for finding me at this hour? Did you Inform Aeinshia and Evan that you came here? " He enquired her. 

In reply, she nodded her head in opposite direction, indicating a great no, to which he reacted by a heavy frown. 

Tsk~ he clicked his tongue.
