You'll Fall For Me, Today or tomorrow

Leia was weaned when she was fourteen months old.

Just like everyone had expected, Leia had grown to be a beautiful young girl. Her hair was black and lustrous, her eyelashes were impeccably long, and her features were not unlike the perfect creation of a master artist. In fact, she was prettier than a doll.

Anyone who saw her would love to take her home. But even though she was perfect, there was one thing that marred this perfection. You see, Leia didn’t like to talk. She didn’t care about anyone, and everyone thought she got that from Matthew. Yes, she was cold, but everyone loved that gap more.

However, her family knew Leia wasn’t apathetic; she was just an impossibly lazy girl. There was one time where Clarissa had to take a call after she made Leia her milk, so she couldn’t feed the girl. Clarissa left the milk on the coffee table and told Leia to finish it on her own.

Leia was on the sofa, reading her favorite book then. The milk was just at arm’s length away, so all she had to do was get off the couch and take it. Thinking the girl would do it on her own, Clarissa went away to take the call.

When she came back later, Leia had just closed her book. She was staring at the bottle on the table, but Clarissa realized Leia hadn’t even taken it.

Clarissa went down to look Leia in the eye. “Leia, I thought I told you to help yourself. Why didn’t you?”

Leia looked at Clarissa, but she didn’t answer right away. However, Clarissa waited patiently, so in the end, Leia answered reluctantly, “It’s too far.”

Clarissa stared at Leia for a moment, then she sighed.

She isn’t even motivated to talk? Jesus, this girl is in for some trouble.

But aside from Clarissa, everyone thought Leia’s laziness was adorable, even more so than Damian, in fact. Thanks to that, all her relatives liked to play with her so they could see how she would respond to them.

But up until now, Leia never showed any different response no matter who was talking to her, not even her parents.

Even so, Clarissa thought that side of her daughter could be funny sometimes.

That day, Clarissa left Leia home along with Damian. The kids played together, while she went to work.

Her movie was a success, but she never wanted to star in another movie again.

She wasn’t a professional actress in the first place. The movie was just a way to confess to Matthew, so she quit after one movie. After that, all she wanted to do was to write her book and script.

Aside from writing, she started spending a lot of time on doing charities. She used to help Olive with her foundation, but only occasionally. It was a busy time for her back then, so she seldom helped.

But that changed after she gave birth. Clarissa started showing up more, and sometimes she brought Leia with her as well. She didn’t want to be absent when Leia needed her milk, after all. Not to mention she had great fun and found another purpose in life through doing charity.
