Watching Elyne’s face got red and being flustered at Serira’s mischievous joke, I felt a bit of bitterness for no reason. No way. I felt left out. I don’t want to let her go. Just when did I become so attached to her? More than that, I felt as if Elyne was being taken away from me by someone.
“Is something the matter, Princess?”
When she gets married, of course, she’ll quit being my handmaiden, won’t she?
I guess so. She will definitely be quitting her job when she gets married. Oh, I am so happy for her, but I’m also not happy ina way….how should I describe this feeling?
Elyne’s head is tilted when I hold my face with my hands without answering her. Oh, I don’t know, whatever. I don’t think I can congratulate her in earnest when I feel like this. I bit my lips for nothing.
It was at that moment. I heard familiar voices.
“Ria!”
It would have been the first time in my life that twins’ visits were so welcome.
The maids already sighed at the twins’ voices, but I could barely hold my hand off my face and smiled. I feel rather relieved at the appearance of beings who make me forget this complicated feeling.
“We’re here to play with you!”
Today also, as always, I hear the bright voice of Valer first. And after that, Sanse followed him… huh?
“Who is it?”
These twins have such a powerful presence, but what is the presence of that child that makes them look like babies in a flash? It was my first time seeing him. What, was there such a child in our country? I was a little embarrassed because I didn’t meet many children my age. In addition, the twins were proudly bringing the boy in front of me. He seems about ten years old? Maybe 11 years old maximum. That child approaches with holding the hands of two children.
Shiny flowing silver hair, intelligently brightening silver-blue eyes. He was such a beautiful child that I would never forget once I saw him.
Why is he so handsome even though he’s a kid?
As if twins cannot see I am being embarrassed, twins put him right in front of me as soon as they arrived.
“Ria, this is our big brother!”
“He’s our brother! Don’t you think our big brother is really handsome? right?!”
Yeah, he’s handsome. But seriously, I don’t think I’ve never met him before.
