One night and two days was surprisingly short. The three of us played cards all night and in the blink of an eye, the sun had risen. Ill keep the outco of the gas a secret. Ill say that my mory flew away since I was so excited all night long.
Ive never won against Keito before but I never thought I wouldnt win against Neriel either I thought he would definitely be like : soone who shows their emotions easily on their face!
I really was the weakest one by far.
Maria-chan is honest after all
Thanks
But you know, Neriel Kindness can hurt people too you know. Emotional pain.
Thank you for having us over. I had a lot of fun.
too! Its been so long since Ive seen the two of you so I was really happy.
Our next vacation, Ill invite you to my house okay?
Yes!
Our next vacation is When was it again? It will probably be sothing like a winter vacation, I dont think we have sothing like a fall vacation.
Which ans, it will be around another half a year until I can see Neriel again. There will probably a couple more opportunities for to go ho, but not enough ti to play with Neriel. After winter vacation, Neriel will enter the academy too. Fortunately, hell be in the sa dorm as !
When I think like that, theres no need to feel sad or anything.
Then, see you.
Yes, see you.
Thanks for having us!
Just like when we ca, we left empty-handed. It didnt feel like we had stayed a night. It feels like we just played for a couple of hours and then left. In reality, more than 24 hours had passed. Its easy to lose your sense of ti.
After waving goodbye to Neriel, we departed from the villa.
Im ho!
Welco ho. Did you have fun?
Yes, a lot of fun!
Only my mother was there to greet . My fathers default state is being busy. I know its amazing for him to even be able to eat dinner with us, so I wont complain.
After you change, lets eat dinner, okay?
Yes.
A letter and a package for you arrived. I left it in your room.
A package okay.
Its probably a souvenir from Prilla or Eru. I didnt think it would co right when I was out. Ill have to send a thank you letter later.
When I entered my room, there was a package wrapped up nicely on the table. You couldnt miss it.
I wanted to open it imdiately but then Id be keeping my mother waiting for dinner. Also, I was hungry.
I quickly changed out of my clothes. Ill leave my dirty clothes to Ann. In the beginning, I had searched for a washing machine, thinking it was common sense. You know, its hard to let soone else pick up your clothes that youve just taken off.
Thank you for waiting.
Welco ho, Maria.
Im ho, father.
When I got to the dining room, my father and mother were already sitting down. My father, who was smiling and welcoming ho, really was a dreadfully handso man. I suspect he is a teen parent, even though he is my own parent.
Did Neriel-kun seem well?
Yes! Im thinking of inviting him here next ti.
Of course. Its been a long ti, I want to see him too.
Although she said that, my mother doesnt actively converse with my friends. My mother simply watches over and my friends from a distance. Although, she could pass as my older sister and join us.
When Prilla and Eru first saw my mother, I was a little bothered. If our eye colors werent the sa, misgivings that she was my step-mother might have surfaced. Even though I introduced her as my real mother although, it is true that as Ive matured, my traits that were similar to my mothers, which were already few, were disappearing even more. Ultimately, besides my eye color I will completely change into my father even though I originally didnt resemble him much!
Let know when he will co. I want to make so sweets.
Waa, Im looking forward to that. Though, it wont be until our next vacation, which is a long ti away.
My mothers sweets are my favorite food. Theres a permanent chef at our house, so my mothers ho cooking always ca in the form of sweets. She makes ones that dont really appear at parties too. Im glad I dont get fat easily.
After dinner, I took a bath and then returned to my room wrapped up in my pajamas.
Until I saw the package on my table, I had completely forgotten about it. I thought it would be safe to send a thank you letter tomorrow morning, its about ti for bed after all.
Ah, yep, its from Prilla.
The na on the card stuck to the package was as I expected. I was thinking it might be Erus, but it was Prillas after all.
The small card was cramd with where she went and what she did. Just by reading it I could tell she had a lot of fun. It seems like the souvenir she sent was the regions traditional accessory.
It works like an amulet against evil, apparently. When the new sester starts, I think Ill wear it every day. Truly thank you, Prilla. You sent sothing I really needed The villa wasnt selling any souvenirs, Im sorry I dont have anything to give you in return.
Hm? This is
Next to the souvenir was a white envelope with my na on it, but no sender na. I initially thought it was from Prilla but her package ca with a card so I concluded that it wasnt.
Thinking it was from Eru, I opened it carelessly.
. Hah?
Involuntarily, my voice slipped out. Confusion passed through , among various other feelings, and I felt like I was frozen.
My hand froze and the card slipped and fell to the ground. What was written on it was a dream-like reality. Although rather than a dream, its more accurate to call it a nightmare.
The sender wanted to talk with in three days at a certain restaurant.
The stores na isDear. Its a restaurant with private rooms for royalty or nobles on official business. Its not a place for children like to go to, but the kind of place that entertains and serves adults. I know of it, but Ive never been there, nor did I have plans to go there.
What eccentric invited a student like there? Hoping that I had misread the na signed at the end of the card, I picked it up.
The white and gold embellishnts were beautiful and suggested the sender was an excessive person.
Luna Vi Leonova was written in neat letters that were easy to read. My hope that I had misread the na was crushed.
I went pale. For a while now, my fingers have been feeling strange. It was like my hands had gone numb and my temperature was gradually being stolen.
I felt like throwing up and I wondered if I couldnt just refuse the cause of my deteriorating health. I knew it was impossible, but shouldnt you allow to escape from reality at least this much?
