The Heiress'S Love
Chapter 8. Natasha Arabella Romanov

James looked at the tiny baby sleeping in a baby box full of admiration. One month ago the baby girl was born complementing the happiness of the Romanov family. During that time James was never absent to wait for his adopted brother.

James' smile fully developed every time he saw the tiny baby wake up from sleep, blink his eyes and smile at him. Little Natasha was so cute and adorable, trying to grab James' hand with her small hand.

“You're funny once.” James murmured with a kiss on Natasha's cheek.

“Ah... James sucks stealing Tasya.” first kiss Nathan's cry suddenly entered Natasha's room with an annoyed face.

James who heard it could only snort. Nathan's head was held up until the boy complained of pain.

“Sick tofu!” Nathan Erang. Nearby Natasha who noticed the behavior of their brothers with frown. “Tasya, don't like the same James yes. He's evil. Same Nathan was handsome.” Nathan said with a clear face.

“You're ugly.” James stuck out his tongue.

“You're uglier than me.” Nathan said he didn't want to lose.

The two immediately engaged in a fight fuss over who was the most handsome among them. Daniel who saw the behavior of the two children immediately broke up, away from his sister who was engrossed in looking at the hanging toy at the top of the baby box.

“You guys get out there. Just storm from earlier.” Grouser Daniel.

“I want to play with Tasya.” Whine Nathan.

“I also want to be here with Natasha.” James said he would not lose.

“Whispering! You guys woke Natasha.” Grumpy Daniel.

James and Nathan can only be gouged to see Daniel scolding them. While on the doorstep, Bella looks at her children with an amused smile. Since Natasha was born the atmosphere of the castle increasingly crowded with the debate of her three sons who did not want to lose to take care of Natasha. Her little daughter has brought happiness to anyone in the Romanov and Vladimir families.

8 Months old.

Bella smiled happily to see her little daughter was busy playing on the table, squandering wheat flour that would be used as bread dough as she cooked in the kitchen. Natasha looks excited playing with the flour no matter her face which is now white exposed to the flour. Natasha patted her flour-stricken hand, chuckling as the flour spread everywhere.

“Ma.ma...ma...” Natasha's busy muttering plays her fingers on the table.

Bella, who couldn't bear to touch her daughter, asked the servants to continue the work while she decided to approach Natasha. He chuckled to see his daughter who was covered in flour all over his body.

“Ma..ma..ma...” Muttered Natasha trying to reach her mother prancing around.

“Iya darling.” Bella approached her daughter.

“Ma..ma..” Natasha tugging at Bella's shirt trying to attract her mother's attention with alternating hands pointing up at the table.

Bella who was curious about what her daughter wanted turned her attention to the place Natasha pointed to. He looked at what was found on the table. Her daughter just wrote, ‘ Natasha Arabella Romanov’ on a flour splash. Bella rubbed her eyes to make sure she did not see wrong but the writing was still clearly visible there.

“Grey... Grey..” Bella tries to call Romanov.

In a hurry Bella walked towards the kitchen door and called her husband once more. With a frenzied pace and an anxious face, Romanov walked up to Bella fearing something might happen there.

“What's up?” Romanov asked confusedly looking around.

“Come here, see this.” Bella draws Romanov's hand closer to where Natasha is.

Romanov follows Bella curious. When she was near Natasha who smiled to see him, Bella showed something that made her stunned. He saw his daughter writing something on the table.

“A..what did Natasha do?” Romanov still could not believe what he saw.

“Iya, our daughter wrote it.” Bella was convincing.

Romanov looked at his daughter happily. Just imagine, Natasha was only eight months old and could write her name correctly. When she heard Natasha say her first word at the age of five months, she thought it was all normal but now she believes her daughter is more than that.

Carrying Natasha and cradling with happiness. Romanov did not even stop expressing his gratitude.

“Our daughter was born a genius dear.” Romanov with sparkling eyes.

“Iya..” Bella's eyes glazed over.

“We'd better consult to make sure.” Bring Romanov.

“But Grey, won't this be a threat to Natasha?” Bella said worriedly.

Romanov seemed to think for a moment. “We will cover up these things. Enough of our family knows the speciality of Natasha.”

Bella nods in agreement with Romanov's plan. However, Natasha's safety is paramount. Their happiness knowing Natasha was born a genius would not be comparable if Natasha was forcibly snatched from their arms.

***

4 Years old.

Natasha is seen playing with James at the castle park as usual when her brother is home from school. Both of them look very carefree collecting flowers that have just bloomed in the spring. Sometimes Natasha is seen chasing the butterflies that roam there. James who saw Natasha's behavior chuckled amused especially every Natasha chasing butterflies that are difficult to catch.

“James, butterfly.” Natasha's whine asks James to catch one of the butterflies flying back and forth between the blooming flowers.

“They can't be caught Natasha.” James tried to give us understanding.

“If you've been caught want to be flanked I have?” James asked curiously.

Natasha did not immediately reply, the little girl seemed to think. Then he smiled and got an idea. He dragged his brother back into the castle to the kitchen, ignoring the chuckling servants who saw the two boys' behavior.

“It..it...” said Natasha pointed to a glass jar that was far from her achievement.

“You want to enter the butterflies here?” James asked to take the jar that Natasha asked for.

“Iya.” Natasha nodded quickly. “Let's catch the butterflies.” He ran back to the park.

“Wait for Natasha, don't run like that later fall.” James's rebuke that Natasha didn't.

“Quick James.” Natasha said impatiently.

Arriving at the park, Natasha immediately chased the butterflies that passed in front of her. James could only shake his head at the super active Natasha. He turned his attention to the butterflies that were busy perching on the flowers sucking nectar. With a sneak he tried to target one of the butterflies to be caught. And he managed to get one of the butterflies after many times failing to get it. He immediately put the butterfly into a jar taken from the kitchen.

“Natasha, look. I got one.” Shouted James calling Natasha who was quite far away from him.

Natasha who saw him immediately ran up to James with sparkling eyes. He saw the orange-colored butterfly full of admiration. “Let's show it to Nathan.”

James nodded in agreement and immediately followed Natasha into the castle. Usually during the day like this Nathan was in the piano room to practice playing the instrument, in contrast to James who did not like the piano and chose to accompany Natasha to play.

Halfway up the stairs to the fourth floor where Nathan was, Natasha decided to stop and sit on one of the steps.

“Capek.” Natasha murmured with soft lips.

“Here I carry.” James said to his back. “Hold tight ya.” His ink after Natasha clung to his back.

“Iya.” Natasha replied while nodding.

Although Natasha was quite heavy, James forced himself to take his sister to the room where Nathan was. He did not want to disappoint his little brother who looks enthusiastic to show the butterflies they get to Nathan.

With a breath of breath, James lowered Natasha on the doorstep of the piano room. Natasha who had just set her foot on the floor immediately darted to run towards Nathan who was still sitting in front of the grand piano.

From the tail of Nathan's eyes he could see Natasha running towards him, but he ignored her. He did not like to see his little girl close to James which made him upset every time he saw the two of them playing together. And he just saw James holding Natasha without looking guilty to her.

“Nathan..Nathan.. See what I have.” Shouted Natasha showing off the jar in her handrail.

Nathan took a quick glance before returning to the piano keys.

“Nathan...the butterflies are cute yes.” Natasha said she didn't give up putting the jar in front of Nathan.

“Iya.” Nathan briefly got rid of the jar.

“This is for you.” Natasha put the jar in front of her sister.

“Surge Tasya, I'm practicing.” Nathan said furiously removing the jar was rough until it fell apart making the butterflies that had been painstakingly caught fly free.

Seeing that Natasha looked surprised for a moment. After that he grabbed Nathan's hand and bit him hard.

“Nathan evil!!!” Snapped Natasha with teary eyes then ran away.

James who saw it from the doorway was instantly enraged. “Natasha caught the butterfly for you. Supercharge!!!” He said he went after Natasha who was crying hysterically.

On the other hand, Nathan still grimaces withstanding the pain in his hand that was bitten by Natasha. He looks guilty for doing all of this. He stared at the fragments of the jar with nanar. The butterflies that had missed appeared to flap their wings out through the open window.

***

At night, Nathan enters Natasha's room. He brought in a new butterfly to replace the one he broke last afternoon. Since the incident in the piano room, Natasha ignored him even as she tried to apologize, her sister chose to leave.

“Tasia.” Call Nathan soft, he knows his sister hasn't slept even though Natasha has curled up in the back of him.

“Tasya, sorry Nathan ya.” Pinta Nathan by the bed.

“Nathan evil.” Natasha said slowly.

“Nathan promises won't be evil anymore with Tasya.” Nathan said regretfully.

Natasha turned to look at Nathan carefully. “Appointment!”

“Appointments.” Nathan said with his little finger.

Natasha did the same after hesitating for a while. The two smiled as their little fingers intertwined.

“I brought you something.” Nathan said he showed butterflies in a beautifully decorated jar.

Natasha's eyes twinkled at him, she immediately woke up and hugged Nathan. “I love Nathan.”

“Nathan also dear Tasya.” Nathan replies to his sister's forehead.

Natasha and Nathan seemed happy to notice the butterflies flying in the jar. Until late at night they joked together until they finally fell asleep. Natasha looks good sleeping with Nathan's hand on her back.
