I Swear I Won't Bother You Again!

There's a pile of stuff. Slowly and gradually, some precipitate. It's light and small enough to not even notice it's loaded. If nothing serious happens, you'll pretend not to notice, like the dust that's piled up in the warehouse.

Gradually, gradually, gradually, but surely, when you can no longer withstand the weight, you gradually realize.

I didn't realize it, I just didn't want to.

It was when the test approached and began to rest well for dinner under the pretext of studying.

"Eh, isn't he here from tomorrow?

"Yes, they called me by my ancestors."

"Your grandfather?

The ancestor of the Verhan family, Violet's grandfather, is the birth father of Bellows and the stepfather of Old. He now lives in hiding in the depths of the realm, but still has a lot of authority and power because of the king's trust. Even after a generation change, it is unacceptable to disobey.

I heard he named it Violet, but in fact, it was a far cry from being remembered. Someone who looked at her face at her mother's funeral. Even if I said I got the name, I don't think that mother can be named properly, so maybe it was in the form of a surrogate. Honestly, I don't really want to get involved. I don't know if I have such an impression on someone I don't remember talking to, but I should still have some sense of the inner feelings of this house now and in the past, but I don't have a voice, and even after my real daughter dies, it ends only with form and duty.

It's not just hate or resentment. Rather, I don't care at the level I forgot to exist.

I thought it was the same over there.

"Sometimes it's unusual. I wonder if your grandfather would have contacted him... even if he lived in a separate house without my knowledge."

"I don't think so. She was surprised, too."

"You're busy. Is Marine okay?

"It has nothing to do with Violet's personal story."

Watch your hair knitted over the mirror. I was surprised to hear from my grandfather, but I was only lucky about my father's absence. From birth to the present, we lived together for an overwhelmingly shorter period. Even if you feel uncomfortable being there, you don't have to be confused about not being there.

"They took about a week, so I'll bring the meal to your room in the meantime."

"It's been a long time. I heard the Mansion was far away."

It takes more than ten hours to reach my grandfather's hideout. If you don't choose the means of transportation, you can go back in one day, but even if you are born, raised, or grown up, your father who lived in the aristocratic world can't endure such a journey. A certain amount of room would be necessary if that were added. Though I thought the Mansion was busy for a while, he worked on scheduling work and arranging escorts.

"Are you alone?

"Mary Jun has a school and her wife will stay. It's going to be a long trip, and it's not a pleasant trip."

"I don't like him, just your grandfather."

I think that it would be caused by incest, concubinage, and Bellows' death, but the most frightening thing about both is the attitude of "saying nothing". After all, if you were to be exposed to verbal abuse, I could give you back the same amount. None of the imaginary ingredients that those two were going to talk about now were well received.

"... well, you can relax for a while."

"Yes, if it weren't for the test period, I could have done more."

"The seeds of trouble have kept me from studying."

Even so, I'm spending the after-school time with Rosette, so I don't have much to do at home. It is true that the journey home has become a little lighter. Why didn't you come back, because there was no young Violet who was hoping for his father's salvation. I think it would really be good to stay forever rather than a week because it would only be a burden to be there.

Well, good night.

"Yeah, good night."

She entered the bed and slowly closed her eyes with the same feeling to Marine, who prompted her to sleep with an ever-gentle smile.

With expectations and peace of mind for a week.
