My Little Spirit Kitty

I think I never enjoy in all my past life such a nice and long trip… Even if it's true that we really took 18hr to arrive at Ostlow, the capital of Northden, it was a really comfortable trip.

I am even able to sleep very well on my seat without any problem to stretch my leg in front of me. While I remember in my previous life, it was horrible to fall asleep when I took plane to travel for such a long distance. I was happy if I was able to sleep 1-2hr at that time since the seat was so tight to each other's, making everyone unable to move freely, except if you were able to afford the first class seat.

Right now, we were waiting for our luggage, trying to prepare ourselves to the cold weather when we saw all the snow there was outside the airport from the windows... I almost wonder if they going to pick us with a snow bike or something alike. Even Sakura face looks a little pale when she was looking outside, maybe wondering why did she comes as well with us…

Finally with our bags in our hands, we start to walk toward the exit gate while we suddenly hear someone shouting our names.

"Hiroki! Phoebe! Yumiko!" Shout Yuuki and Linoa loudly until we find them.

Look like they came at the airport with my parents, since I didn't see Ichijou or Isabelle with them.

Linoa has a big smile on her face when she us turning our head to them and then she start to run toward us before hugging us while Yuuki was following her behind, smiling too.

"I am so happy that you finally come to visit me in my home." Say Linoa to us.

"I have so many things that I want to show you, but unfortunately it's winter now." Did she say few sadly.

"Next time you have to come in summer time, it's much more beautiful" Say my father who just arrived behind Linoa before hugging me as well.

"How was your trip? Did Hiroki don't make too many trouble to you?" Asked my mother to Sakura, missing her a lot.

Hearing this, I suddenly felt some chill on my body, since in fact something happened just recently, but looking at my mother I realize that she didn't know yet about this while Sakura have a little scary smile on her face while looking at me…

"Gulp…! Well... Not that lot trouble things… Right?" Did I say while looking at my parents and Sakura.

My parents seeing at Sakura and me shake their heads helplessly...

"What he again did?" Did they ask in same time, while Linoa was looking at me with her eyes rolling at me when Yuuki still not understand what's was happening as usual…

"Just let say that Hiroki did help me a lot for my research… Doesn't it?" Did she reply them for then looking at me.

"Let's talk about it later, how is your pregnancy?" Ask Sakura while looking at her belly starting to become big.

"I am fine, we just make an ultrasonography few days ago to know if it was a boy or a girl for our Christmas gift, but we was too impatient to wait…" Laughed Ayumi.

"And? What is it? I got a little brother or a little sister?" Did I ask them when I heard about it.

"Hehe… You will have to wait tomorrow night at the Christmas Eve to know about it!" Replies my dad while wink at me, making me a little mad.

Following my father to his new car, which is quite bigger than his car he had before at home and at least we was all able to sit inside, we left the airport under a small snow storm while wondering if I do have a little brother or a little sister, or maybe both who know...

Everywhere we were looking from the windows, all we can see was white everywhere… Even if we also have some snow during winter in our country, we never have that so much as they have here. Sometime we can see snow almost as high as some small house, almost become like an igloo in the cartoon we like to watch.

Even the small river was frozen and sometime you can even see some people sit on a chair trying to fish after they make a small whole in the ice.

Are they trying to get some nice fish for tomorrow Christmas Eve feast or did they just enjoy being outside without care of the coldness? Honestly I don't know and even less Phoebe and Yumiko.

"It's a kind of tradition here, the husband should arrived to fish a fish for his wife and each of his kids before the end of the years, which is supposed to give them a good luck and nice health for the next year." Say Ayumi while she notices our surprised face when we saw the people on the ice river with their fishing rod.

"So that mean my dad also did the same thing too?" Did I ask her since I never see him doing this past six years, doesn't it?

"Well... hmm… It's not th…" My dad didn't had time to finish that my mom suddenly starts to laugh loudly.

"No, he didn't yet catch anything yes" Did she reply after she calm down a few.

"It's not that so easy as you may think!" Reply my father, trying to find an excuse.

"Really? My dad already brings us five fishes yesterday." Say Yuuki with an innocent voice.

"It's just the beginner chance…" Grumble my dad.

Hearing this, both Sakura and my mother laugh even more loudly at him.

"Uncle! Can we…" Asked suddenly Linoa just after my dad stop the car in front of the seashore.

"Sure!" Did he reply while smiling at her before taking a green wand out of his jacket.

< Levitate > Did he suddenly shout, making the car suddenly rise up from the ground and fly at high speed to an island which was situate in front of us…

Seeing at my surprised face, Linoa and my mother laugh at me. It's not that I don't know that my father is a magician, but to suddenly see him using magic like that for just a trivial matter, that is what chocks me the most. During past years, both of my parents never use any magic in front of me, except a few when I was still a baby thought but they soon stop, since they wanted to give us a normal life.

At a moment I almost believe that I was born in a normal family without any magic and that maybe I was just dreaming about all of it when I was a baby. The only things make me know it was not a dream was to see Hikari being with me.

Seeing that the car finally start to slow down a few, I look around me for see the car going straight to a beautiful big house, even bigger than our actual home, that slowly appear in front of us.

It was a 3 floors house with big windows on the first floor that was quiet higher compare to the 2nd and 3rd floors. There was also a big garden, almost as big as our actual garden if not bigger when I see the forest behind the house, but this time except to lead to a lake it directly lead to the sea, which has also his own dock with a bigger boat.

When I see this home, I now understand why my father really misses his home and why he also bought a small boat few years ago. He just tries to recreate almost the same design than his childhood home when he was living in Orimaen with us.

"Welcome to the Solwabeck's manor!" Say proudly my dad before the car softly land on the ground and turn off the contact.

"Manor?" Repeat Phoebe, Yumiko and I, while looking at my father.

"Your parents have lot of things to tell you…" Say Linoa while laughing at my surprised face.

Seeing the huge house in front of me, I wondering what else my parents didn't told me yet about my origin did I thought when I see my grand parents going outside of the house to greet us.

The first time I saw my grand parents from my father side, I was one year old at that time and they was just wearing normal clothes when they come to visit us, but today it was a total opposite.

My grandfather was wearing a dark blue tuxedo that was under a beautiful green long coat which having an escutcheon with the emblem of their family on his left side that was exactly the same on top of the door.

There was a wand in the middle with the handle up and surround by two wings while on top of it was a Triquetra Celtic symbol while there was writing < Vind > on a streamer situate in the down part of the family emblem.

"Lady Solwabeck, thank you for inviting me and my daughters to invite us for the Christmas and to stay in your home" Say politely Sakura to my grand mother.

"Come on Sakura, I already told you many time to call me by name, you are almost a part of the family as well, don't you think?" Did she say while looking at the twin and me, which were next to me.

She was wearing a light blue long dress under the same long coat than her husband but more well cut, revealing partially her nice curve body.

"Thank you Blenda." Reply Sakura

"Come on, hurry up to enter in our home, it's cold outside." Say my grandfather while smiling at us and showing the way with his hand.

The first things we saw when we enter the house was the huge Christmas tree inside the living room that was almost 3m high and having lot decorations on it, it was just superb specially with the old furniture in the room, it was like we travel back to the past.

Even Phoebe and Yumiko was looking around them with their jaws almost touching the floor, which make Linoa laughing at them when she see it…

But I am sure that sure that she had the same face as well when she first see this as well since it was something so amazing, specially that she has always wish to feel like a princess in her past life, which almost gave us this impression right now.

"Look at you how you become tall!" Say suddenly my grandfather behind me.

"How are you my little Hiroki, or maybe should I call you Professor Nickelaos!?" Did he suddenly say while laughing.

Now it was my turn of my parents and Linoa to look at me while wondering what's happening for then turning their head to Sakura.

"Sigh… Why it's always me that I have to explain everything each time…" Did she whisper while looking at me.
