Side Story 02
Lucy, as if she had beco a farr, beca busier as spring ca.
Inside the duchy, there was a garden she cherished. Recently, she almost lived there because she didnt miss plow days or seeding days.
She also made dicines out of herbs and other plants and perford so volunteer work using the dical skills she learned in dical school.
Felix, who was busy, also had a similar situation. He spent almost every day in his office working, and he frequently traveled for work. As a result, it was difficult for the two to spend ti together.
Lucy, who had been stumbling around the garden all morning, finally cleaned up and wiped her sweat with her sleeves.
Suddenly, she raised her head and looked at Felixs office. But there was no movent in the window. This is because Felix left the mansion early in the morning for work. The empty office looked more lonely.
When she returned to their room with a lonely heart, there was so paper on the table. The mo only had two sentences scrawled on it in Felixs handwriting; it appeared that a servant delivered it.
Two oclock. In front of the fountain in Bethel Square.
Lucy, who had read the writing, smiled quickly.
She imdiately threw off her filthy clothes and hurried to the bathroom to wash herself.
She wiped the water off and then opened the closet. She typically wore achromatic, cozy clothing at ho, but today she noticed a pretty colorful, adorable dress.
Lucy dressed herself and quietly walked out of the room.
She vaguely heard the twins laughter. It was playti for the kids, so the tutor and nanny were watching them.
Strangely, the childrens laughter seed to be getting closer as she descended the stairs in peace and quiet.
And the mont Lucy was already down the stairs.
She ca across the twins exiting the playroom. Walking while holding the tutors hand, Knox and Eston stopped.
Lucy made a hasty attempt to hide behind the stairs, but the two kids had already found her.
Mom!
The twins called Lucy with gleaming eyes.
Mom, where are you going?
Im not going anywhere. Just the garden.
Dressed like that?
The children were quick-witted.
Knox and Eston ca running to Lucy, letting go of the tutors hand. Before she could leave, the twins clung to her skirts.
Where are you going?
Im not going anywhere
Lies! Then why did you wear this?
I just like to wear it!
I want to go too!
Take with you!
Lucys lies didnt work on the children.
I want to play with my mom!
I want to play with my mom, too!
The nanny and the tutor were standing behind them, pityingly glancing at her. This is due to the fact that they were well aware from prior experience that they could not handle the kids behaving in such a gooey, gum-sticking manner toward their mother.
When her lies didnt work, Lucy decided to use the last resort.
Phew, yes, thats right. Mom, is going to play.
Im coming, too.
I want to follow you!
Yes, yes.
Lucy pretended to listen to the twins and slipped.
Aunt Ros misses you, too.
At the sa mont, Eston and Knox, who were both holding the skirt of Lucy, both looked up.
Aunt Ros?
The children who asked with bewildered eyes, suddenly let go of her skirt and slowly stepped back.
Yes, Im going out to see Aunt Ros today.
The children were rendered speechless. Lucy was able to contain her laughter as she thought back on so mories.
Last fall, the children who begged Ros to play with them during her visit to the Duchy boldly suggested playing tag, and Ros imdiately removed her shoes.
Recalling their mother and nanny who always lost to them, the twins expected Ros to play the role of a tagger and act like them but the person involved seed to have a different plans.
Less than ten minutes after Ros took the twins to a large open space in the garden, the screams of the children began to resonate in the Duchy.
What Lucy and Felix saw when they looked out of the window was Ros, who was chasing the twins with her skirt gravely raised.
As the twins ran from their seats whenever they heard the word Ros, Perhaps the mont remained etched in their minds.
Whats wrong? You said you wanted to follow . Lets go see Aunt Ros together.
Shake~ shake~
The children shut their mouths and shook their heads.
Why? You said you wanted to go, too.
Shake~ shake~
The twins exchanged glances with each other, and then calmly greeted Lucy.
Mom, have a safe trip.
Mom, have a safe trip.
Then they sprinted to the tutor. The twins, who held their ho teachers hand tightly, urged the teacher and asked him to go sowhere else.
Lucy burst into laughter as she watched the twins calmly following their tutor and nanny.
***
Bethel Square.
Lucy stepped outside the carriage to inspect the fountain. She had a distant view of Felix.
Felix quickly located her and waved his hand.
Through the throng of people, Lucy sprinted to him and imdiately gave him a bear hug.
They havent gone out on a date as a couple for such a long ti.
Felix, have you been waiting for long?
He responded while giving Lucy a bear hug.
Theres no such thing as a lot waiting for you.
Her ears rang with the sound of his voice.
I will always wait for you.
Soon after he released Lucy, he held her hands and led her sowhere.
It looks like there are more people today.
Lucy looked around the square full of people with a puzzled expression.
Because its spring festival day.
Ah.
Only then did Lucy think of the date. Because of the garden work and taking care of the twins, she temporarily lost all awareness of the festivals approaching date.
I wanted to walk with you like this, even if its not necessarily because of the festival because the weather is so nice, he said.
He was right; it was a day that no one could resist coming outside because the sky was clear and it was a moderately warm day.
Holding hands tightly, the two made their way through the crowd.
It had been a while since they had fun together, so she wanted to walk quietly, but things didnt turn out the way she had hoped.
This is due to peoples stealthy eyes following them everywhere.
Lovely blue eyes and long blond hair. A pleasing face
His appearance, the features of the Duke of Berg, attracts peoples attention anyti, anywhere.
In addition, the carriage that Lucy rode was still there.
People appeared to be aware of the Duke and Duchess of Bergs presence in Bethel Square thanks to it.
Additionally, the duchess, the woman walking alongside the duke while holding his hand, was a commoner.
Felix seed to have caught the oblique glance directed at them quickly. He removed Lucy from the crowd and led her into an alleyway filled with street vendors.
On both sides of the street, there are stalls set up indefinitely, vendors slinging their wares, and people stopping briefly to take a closer look.
Lucy started to rember the old mories she had temporarily forgotten as she took in the surroundings.
Leaving their friends, a boy and a girl vanished into the crowd.
Did she and he both recall the sa event? Felix looked at them and grinned softly.
The two kept a cordial distance while walking. The spring sun shone brightly on the top of their heads.
At one of the stands, Felix purchased a wons brim hat. He placed the hat atop Lucys head.
Because the sun is shining. Felix said as he personally tied a ribbon under her chin.
Lucy was startled to feel eyes on them.
However, it was the nearby young won who were glancing at the two. They were enviously glancing at Felix and Lucy as he tied the ribbon with a kind touch.
Evidently, Felix attracted admiration from more people than just the ladies.
Nevertheless, the person in question did not appear to have paid it any attention.
Felix gave Lucy a friendly smile and even arranged Lucys hair.
Lucy thought as she looked at Felixs smile. I believe that rather than the sun, it is your face that shines.
Shall we go now?
After leaving the hat vendor, Lucy and Felix resud their stroll.
Felix continued to scan the area even after purchasing the hat as if he were looking for sothing.
Lucy asked, Shall I guess what youre looking for?
What is it?
Lucy grabbed Felix by the wrist, moved forward, stopped in front of a stand, and pointed to one place with her finger as Felixs chin twitched as if to guess.
This one.
A crystal necklace was gleaming under the sunlight at her fingertips.
