The Moon Goddess and Her Mate novel Chapter 28

At the Chief Agbazarth's house in Tatkhion

“Armen, where are you going?”

The head of the family was surprised, because the middle-aged man looked at the eldest son, who had risen from the chair, even though the rest of the family had not finished eating. The young man, whose name his father had mentioned before, turned his head and, from his face, looked normal.

“I want to go to the temple, Dad.”

The silver-haired man gaped when he heard the answer from the other person. Meanwhile, his wife and the youngest, who were originally eating food, now turned their attention to the conversation that was created between the father and his elder son. They seemed to find an interesting spectacle, so it would be a shame to miss it.

“A temple? Why do you want to go there all of a sudden? Is there a special worship ceremony this week?" asked Lebrazht, probing.

“Does going to the temple need a special reason, Dad? I guess not. I just want to pray there,” replied Armen.

The thirty-five-year-old man still did not want to answer specifically, so suspicion began to grow within his biological father. "Do not be stupid, Son. Everything has a logical reason, but you seem to hide something. You made me suspicious. You must stay at home, because later we will have guests."

“Why should I wait at home with the excuse of having guests? I do not who are the guests that you were talking about and if I do not know about that people, then they might be your guests. Do not involve me with your business, Dad."

I feel grateful because I have a mother who always tells me everything, especially about the flirty girl who always tries to attract my attention, so when she has the chance to come here, I can run away immediately, thought Armen, irritated.

“How dare you go against me!”

"No, I do not. It is just your opinion, Dad. Besides, this is not the first time you have always forced your own will on me, so even when I do not want to agree, you always say like that."

“Anyway, you can't go anywhere! You have to wait for the guest here!”

"No. I reject it. I want to go to the temple. Why did you insist I to meet with them? Who are they? Are the guests come from the important person?”

Before the father opened his mouth to continue the debate, that burly man continued his speech. “One thing; since when is it forbidden to worship the gods, Dad? Do humans have to wait for the ceremonial moment before going to the temple? Would not it be better to worship them every day so that our village could be spared from harm?" Armen deliberately suppressed the word for word in the last sentence, intending to intimidate his father.

The man, who resembled his eldest son, was struck by what Armen had said. Unknowingly, his jaw tightened as if he was ready to spill out annoyance. However, the man who liked a strange girl who could fly in the sky chose not to prolong the conversation, then looked at his little brother and his mother, who had been observing their conversation for a long time.

“Mom, Agtheo, I am going first. I will be back later.”

After saying this, the brown-skinned man, because he had a lot of outdoor activities, left his family members. Meanwhile, his father did not restrain or scold Armen. The hazel-eyed man seemed to allow his first son to do whatever he wanted.
