As usual, one day, I was imrsed in my research in library when I noticed the door " creak" opened a little bit.
However, no one was entering.
Through the gap in the slightly opened door, there was a pair of purple eyes, just like mine, gazing at .
Is she trying to hide from ?
But our eyes t perfectly.
Should I pretend not to notice? I feel like I'm being watched closely.
'What are you doing, ...... brother?'"
"'I'm doing so research. ...... want to join ? ldy."
ldy Bardia, a pretty four-year-old girl with red hair and purple eyes, just like
oir mother.
"Brother , you won't get mad ...... if I stay with you?
Yes, I won't get mad. Co here, let read you a picture book."
" For real ?"
ldy opened the door fully and ca running toward .
Her eyes were sparkling.
"I'm not lying. I'll read it to you. but you have to close the door."
"Yes, "
ldie happily closes the door and moved closer to .
When I recall Rid's mories, the sad exchange with ldy cos flooding back to my mind.
When ldy was born, Rid himself was excited and loved her very much.
However, when his mother, , beca ill, he felt an uncontrollable anxiety.
Perhaps he was trying to protect his heart in his own way as a child.
But the anger was directed at ldy as well.
Rid would yell at ldy just for getting close to him.
When ldy asked him about their mother, Rid got violent with ldy, putting his hands on her.
Garn, Danae, and the other servants stopped him, and fortunately she was not particularly injured.
The incident settled down as a "minor quarrel "between children.
However, the distance between the two of them must have grown.
Since then, the people in the house have taken care of them at al tis and other tis so that they do not see each other as much as possible, even though they are brother and sister.
"ldie, I'm sorry."
"Huh ? Oh, brother, you can't sleep in the garden ".
“Hmmm? You knew that, too? Don't imitate .”
"I won't repeat it ."
"Yes, you're a smart girl, aren't you?"
"Yes, I'm smart."
ldy was told that she was clever, and she shook her body ticklishly and laughed a little.
" You can call l."
"Is it . okay with you?"
"Mother always calls l. So it's okay for you too, you are special ."
"I understand .Thank you "
I replied with a smile, and l shook her body ticklishly and laughed again, with , "Ehehe."
After that, I read a picture book to l for a so ti .
It was as if I was atoning for my past sins.
I don't know how much ti passed, but l fell asleep while I was reading her a picture book.
I called the maid, and after a few monts, there was a knock at the door.
When I answered, Danae ca into the library saying in a small voice, "Excuse ."
l was lying on the sofa, breathing softly in her sleep.
Danae looked a little surprised at the sight of that , but then her face turned into a gentle smile.
l's sleeping face is so cute.
I think anyone would smile.
" Lady ldy, can you get up and walk?" but there is no answer.
She seems to be sleeping more soundly than I expected.
Danae takes l in her arms.
When I opened the door of the library, she smiled, thanked , and left the room.
She went straight to l's room.
She passed and Garn ca in, looking at with a suspicious expression on his face.
"...... were you with Lady ldy ......?"
"I was reading a picture book to her until she fell asleep,"
Was my answer unexpected?
After looking into my eyes for a mont, Garun smiled as if he was relieved.
"Please take good care of lady . ldy from now on."
“Of course. She is my sister."
I guess he knows how I used to treat l.
Garn looked a little surprised at my response.
".. You seems to have changed a little since you collapsed in the garden."
"What⁉ Is that so? I don't think I had changed much."
“I am sorry for my intrusion. I am sorry to be so straight "
"No, it's fine. Thank you for your concern."
Garn smiled and said , "Now, if you'll excuse ," and left.
"Huh. ...... I was surprised. Is that what he thinks of compared to how I've been? till now"
I had been going around hitting everyone and anyone with a anger in my heart when my mother got magical power depletion.
The mory of that ti floated into my head .
That is why I vowed once again that I would save my mother, and I resud my researching in my library again.
