However, she didn't have a choice but to reduce her grandfather protectiveness. Or else, it wouldn't bring any good for her in the future.

"Grandfather, in the future sooner or later there are a lot of matters that will coming on my way and needed to be solved on my own. If you not let me face it now, I won't be able to face anything in the future. It is impossible for me to always stick with you"

"Of course it possible for you to always stick with me" He said stubbornly.

"Whatever the protection is and however formidable people around me are, in the end, it will always be me who has the highest responsibility to protect myself. Previously, you have been tried your best to shield me, however misfortune still happened upon me"

He knew that it was true that he has been tried the best method to protected her but still failed, furthermore his feeling of guilty covered his heart again upon remembered his incapability.

"Grandfather, if I am capable enough to solve the nation matter, don't you think I have the same chance to solve this matter? I have to strive now, to ensure my safety later. All I need is your trust"

For these couple days, every time I saw you, I thought you were different person but now, I know more than anyone that it is you in front of me. You are not change, you just more lively than before. I love to see this side of you who speak out what is in your mind. I know what you said were right, but let's talk about this in another time"

It was expected, you couldn't possibly flip people heart with little amount of time, right? If worst come to worst, she just need to runway or tricked him with little bit hypnotized.

Senja shrugged. It is one way or another.

"Why you said that their married is because of gratitude?"

"Actually, I don't want to talk about others private matters" He appeared reluctant but, Senja knew he was more than willing to spill the bean. "But, if you really want to know, I will tell you. However you have to remember, it was something that you can't talk about casually"
