I was able to return to work about two weeks after that.
The wound on my forehead and the bruise on my shoulder are recovering well, and the internal bleeding around the wound on my forehead has been difficult to get rid of, but since it is hidden by my bangs and the white powder that Myra-sama gave when she visited at the hospital, I didn’t recognize her at first glance, so there is no problem when she went out in public. These costics are really excellent. It is a bit expensive, but I am now wondering if I should get a complete set.
And today is the day of the long-awaited visit to the orphanage under the queen’s direct control. As promised, I ca to the orphanage with Liam-kun.
「Hello everyone. My na is Liam Warren. I’m here today by courtesy of the Queen. I hope we all get along.」
Liam’s greeting in front of the children at the orphanage and his smile, which seed to send flowers flying, won the hearts of many. So of the girls even have bright red cheeks, which is really quite sinful, as expected from Liam-kun!
Eh, ? Instead of being shot through the heart, I’m being grabbed by the heart.
Just before I ca to the orphanage, Liam-kun, whom I hadn’t seen for a long ti at the royal palace, was the first to worry about my injuries after greeting Myra-sama, and gave kind words and a hug. It’s just that healing, healing. Liam-kun, your cleansing effect is amazing. My little gentleman is still cool and cute ministry!! Douglas-sama’s elent, seriously none can be seen!!
「Umm, Marsha-sama…」
As I was inwardly writhing with love for Liam-kun, Dolly from the orphanage tugged at the hem of my dress. She is exactly the sa eight-year-old girl as Liam-kun.
「Yes. What can I do for you, Dolly?」
I responded with a smirk, crouching down to make eye contact with her, and she ca closer to my face as if we were having a private conversation, with a hint of a cheek.
「T–That kid… Is he an angel?」
You got it——!!!!
I wanted to shout that, but now I am the queen’s first lady-in-waiting at the orphanage. I have to be careful, I have to be careful.
「Fufu, yes. He’s a sweet boy, like an angel. Why don’t you talk to him?」
「Ehh… I’m embarrassed.」
「Don’t be like that, try your best. I’m sure Liam-kun will be waiting for you to talk to him too.」
「R–Really?」
「Yes, go ahead.」
「Oh… Okay!」
Dolly approaches Liam-kun, glancing back at as I push her back. Liam-kun noticed her and waited for Dolly to co to his side with an expectant look on his face.
That’s right. The children at the orphanage understood that Liam-kun was an aristocrat because he ca with Myra-sama. That’s why no one approached Liam-kun right away, even though he gave such a nice greeting. I don’t an to be dismissive in a bad way, but Liam-kun must’ve been at a loss as to what to do after being gawked at from afar. It’s not strange to expect a girl to approach a boy, even if fearfully, at such a ti.
「U–Uhm…」
「Yes!」
Liam-kun responded in high spirits to the fact that Dolly had spoken to him as he had expected, but Dolly, on the contrary, seed to shudder and tremble.
「Oh, I’m sorry. I’m sorry I startled you.」
Liam-kun, noticing Dolly’s appearance, lowers his eyebrows.
「A–Aww…」
We watched with smiling eyes as Dolly’s face turned bright red as soon as she saw this expression directly in front of us.
Dolly, who was unable to utter a word, looked at as if asking for help. But I only clenched my fist and cheered her on. I am sorry to Dolly for asking for help, but I am an adult here, and I can’t just butt in, and I honestly want to watch what a cute little girl around his sa age will do. And even if I didn’t help her out, the little gentleman Liam-kun would never disrespect a girl who talked to him.
「May I ask your na?」
As if to regain his composure, Liam smiled and spoke to Dolly.
「Errm, uhh, my na is Dolly.」
「That is a very cute na. May I call you Dolly-chan?」
「Y–Yes!」
「Ufufu, I’m glad. You can call whatever you like.」
「Okay. Err… Liam-sa…」
Henyon.
「Ah, uuh… Liam, -kun?」
「Yes!」
Did you see that!? Dolly tried to call him『Liam-sama』and she made it change to『-kun』just by raising and lowering her eyebrows. Normally, as the son of a high-ranking aristocrat, Liam-kun’s honorific title should be『-sama,』but as usual, it was a tour de force. I can only say, “Well done.” She had it done to a few years ago, and it’s not half bad, because she felt guilty as if she did sothing wrong, even though she didn’t do anything wrong, you know what I an? And I know. I know that it was this person next to who taught Liam-kun.
I glanced up to the side and sothing chilling flew out from behind my glasses, so I hurriedly returned my gaze to the two adorable kids as if nothing had happened. I won’t poke around in the bushes.
「Uhh, you see. There are beautiful flowers blooming on the hill over there. Why don’t we go make flower crowns?」
「Can you make a hairpin out of flowers? I have never made one.」
「I’ll teach you h–how to do it!」
「Yes, by all ans please!」
Seeing the two of them smiling with cheeks stained, sothing chilling from earlier is being purified. Ahh, they’re so adorable.
「Dear Queen, Marsha-san. May we go?」
He turned around, his face full of anticipation.
「Of course you can. Right, Marsha?」
Myra-sama smiles and replies with a smile. I nodded in addition to that, and Liam-kun’s face lit up, making dazzled.
「Yes, go on.」
「Okay! Please look forward to it, Marsha-san!」
What? I thought,「I want to go with Dolly, too!」The other girls followed them, saying,「It’s not fair, Dolly!」I’m impressed with your ability to build a harem in this mont, Liam-kun.
The boys, who had been preceded by the girls, looked disappointed that they couldn’t invite Liam-kun to play with them, even though they were interested in him.
「Fufu, they are all so adorable…」
A voice in my mind popped out unintentionally.
「Tch, kuku… mhmm, excuse .」
「If you want to laugh, be my guest.」
I said in desperation at the sound of Ryniel-sama’s unbearable laughter. I was ashad that I had inadvertently let out my heart’s voice.
「No, no, I don’t doubt your feelings.」
「I’m sure they are. They’re all so cute.」
.
You can’t deny that part. Children are adorable and lovable.
「Marsha-san likes children, you know. It’s a bit perverted, though.」
「Utter one more word, Mary.」
What do you an by perverted? It is the natural order of things that children are equally adorable.
