183 CHAPTER V -- THE FEELING OF A GIRLS (1/2)

SIDE: Josetteer.

'From José: ...... and now I can give it to you tomorrow . It's been a long time since I've handed you a letter ...... Frank, I hope you're doing well.

I'll never forgive you for hurting the Philibert family.

I will never forgive you. And for the indiscriminate killing of so many children, and most of all, for depriving me of one of my few opportunities.

”Gosh, I'm in the sixth grade now. This is the end of this year's correspondence: ......

Your father will be angry with you if you don't make any more progress before you graduate from the nobleman's school .

Besides, I'm sure he'll have you engaged to a man you don't even know who he is. .......

Maybe it's a dirty old man.

He thinks that's normal. Even your brother was seriously planning on marrying a replacement.

But Mr. Frank has his own family history. ......

I have to marry a church lady, and I can't be married to Frank.

I knew that for a long time.

But I can't give up and keep writing letters.

When I think about it, I naturally burst into tears.

”Miss. How can I help you with ......?

”I'm fine. Everything's fine. So who's our guest?

Master Leena.

Leena?　Ah, gentle Leena-san would be going around greeting her good friends as soon as she got back to the dormitory.

Leena-san. Well, I'll get it.

'Already, so it's enough for me . Shelly, please go back to your room!

As I open the door, I hear Leena's voice at the next door. Unusually, she's a little hoarse.

Did you and Sherry have some kind of fight?

That's unusual. They've always been so close.

All right. ....... When you're done, why don't you come over to my room as soon as you're done?　I'm lonely.

All right. I'll go straight to Sherry's room when I'm done. So just wait in your room!

Yeah ...... It doesn't look like a fight . They seem to be rather flirting with each other.

I knew those two would be close.

Oh, I'm sorry!

I pushed Sherry into the room and when Leena noticed me, she rushed over to me.

'It's okay . Did Leena and the others arrive at the dorm today?

''Yes . Because of Leo-kun's transition, I stayed in Mladin territory until the last minute.

That's right. Leo-san, you had the transference skill.

And Sherry and Leena were in Leo's territory during the holidays.

I'm jealous. It's more than a week's wagon ride from my domain.

I miss that beautiful view of the ocean, but it's hard to get home because of the long travel time.

That's tough. I should be more grateful to Leo, after all.

Yes. Oh, it's not a good time to talk here, so why don't we go inside and have a cup of tea and talk?

I wanted to talk to Ms. Leena a little more, so I opened the door and invited her into the room .

She said she was going to be back early to Ms. Sherry, and I wondered if she would say no.

''Well ......, yes. I'll take you up on your offer. I really wanted to ask you something, José.

Me?　...... Okay . Go ahead.

What is it?　Did I have to ask you something?

Sorry to disturb you, sir.

So what were you going to ask me?

I walked into my room and sat down across from Leena, and I didn't want to be bothered by what she was going to ask me, so I quickly got down to business .

'It's about Frank and José. Are you going to resume your correspondence tomorrow?

'What?　Ah, yes ...... I intend to do that.

A question I wasn't expecting, and it took me a while to answer it.

I didn't expect you to ask me about it.

I had talked to her about it, but she had never asked me about the situation, so I was surprised.
