Chapter 29 (1/2)

The as cold I've lived under the White Mountains for the past 18 years, however today was the first I had felt such cold winds After seven days and nights have passed by, I was noalking on that uphill road again That slow slope when you clio doas no different from before That incline of a road that I had went up at least once a day for deliveries The road that once had those merry, boisterous people that waved at h there was always a few that swore insults However, despite it being daytiht

Besides me was a tall

Many of the people had said this when they first saw him – I didn't know that Fabian's father was alive, but the fact that such a wonderful father existed for exanize who the father and who the son is, and…… so far as to even say that it would be better to live with him than my mother What exactly do they really want to say?

My outer appearance hardly rese of my mother

I wonder where all those people that busily travelled along here had gone to? The fact that it was too quiet was as if I was in a dream

”Fabian”

Now, there's only one person here walking besides me that could call my name

”Yes”

”Would you like it… …if I wasn't at your side?”

I raised my head and stared at the person's face who spoke those words Those keen eyes and the shape of his nose, such a face looked like a sharp, carved knife That noble ie at all, and that splendid attire

Did I really look like that? But then, that dark-blue hair, and those pupils… my bloodline that I couldn't deny

”… No”

”…… you don't speak much”

Ah, that's the first time I heard such words in my life

My 'father' who doesn't knohat kind of person his son is at all

My 'father' that had never held my hand once

I wonder how the feelings of a ed for his lost lovefor 18 years would be like It really is a hard probleuess

I wonder if that feeling would be similar to a person that had lost his mother who loved her son dearly for 18 years

And I wonder hoould feel to see his son not officially say 'father' once

Do I have the right to make this person more distressed than he currently is?

We were both, whether who ca and heartbroken

The village, in short, was devastated

Although there were some houses that weren't destroyed, the majority had collapsed, and there was no homes that could be determined as livable Over there was carpenter Nasret's home, over there was the aunty that sold stearandfather Rayane that no one could imitate shoe shop that made shoes out of leather

Everything was bitterly destroyed

One more slope and ill be at our store

The ers at Grillard, and tonight would be the one dinner e hold the mass funeralOf course, my mother's corpse was already at Ember
