The Tanaka Family Reincarnates

nt room, was running toward Leonard’s loud voice, and when he saw Emma, he slid on his knees with momentum before stopping right in front of her.

And with gestures that impressed Emma on how smooth they were, he proceeded to propose with one knee on the floor… Before Leonard grabbed him by the neck and threw him out of the room.

“Ouch!”

The sound of Joshua’s cry after he fell grandly on his butt was blocked as Leonard slammed the door shut with a bang.

Joshua would later say that he could never forget Leonard’s demonic look he saw in that instant.

When George and William worriedly asked what had happened, Joshua replied that he was alright, patted the place where he fell on his butt, and in a soft voice so nobody could hear, whispered, “But I still won’t give up…”

Leonard begged in a sad voice that made Emma and Martha doubt if he was really the same individual who had just grabbed someone by the neck and easily threw another person away.

“Emma, if you wear a dress like this, people like Joshua will come swarming! At least, at the very least, put some embroidery patterns on it!”

“Jeez, Father.
You shouldn’t have thrown Joshua when he, too, just said that as a joke, you know?”

“…I apologize, Master, but we don’t have time to take off the dress, embroider, and put it on again.
You need to depart now.
Otherwise, you will be late.” Martha shook her head to say that it was impossible without looking apologetic at all.

“Ugh… We will make it somehow…! Just the hem! I can embroider it here without Emma having to take the dress off!”

“As I have said, Master.
It’s.
Already.
Time.
To.
Leave!”

“You must not be late for the evening party hosted by the Royal Family.” 

Martha added that Leonard must have known too.
Even here, time kept moving with every moment they spent exchanging words.

“It’s alright! I can get it done and dusted in 40 seconds!”

I wasn’t sure how I should feel hearing a certain mama’s[1] line from my papa… 

While Emma was stunned, Leonard sat at her feet and really finished the embroidery work in under 40 seconds…
