Claire apologized to me
“Mr. Takumi. I’m sorry that Tilura troubled you last night.”
The next morning, Claire came to visit while I was washing up.
While Tilura had apparently notified someone, Claire still felt that she had caused trouble for us.
“It’s fine. Liza and Leo were happy to see her.”
“Wuff-wuff.”
“Leo is in a better mood than usual, because they slept together.”
Liza and Tilura had already gone off to wash their faces. But Leo was with me and wagging her tail happily.
“Thank you, Mr. Takumi. And you, good Leo. Still, I am a little jealous.”
“Jealous?”Claire had looked down and muttered that last part.
Did she want to sleep with Leo too? Well, the fur was certainly very soft.
“No…it’s nothing. Still, perhaps we can sleep together again, like we did before going to Range village.”
“Uh…ahh…maybe?”
“Wuff!”
Before going to Range village… Ms. Lyra had been there too. Uh…I suppose it was fun.
“We’re back. I feel so refreshed. Ah…sister..”
“Papa. Mama. Ah, sister Claire. Good morning!”
“Good morning, Liza. Tilura… You really must not cause trouble, you hear?”
“Yes… I’m sorry.”
“It’s really no trouble at all. You don’t have to be sorry.”
“Wuff. Wuff-wuff.”
As we were talking, Tilura and Liza returned to the room cheerfully. And while Claire rebuked her sister, I did what I could, and the conversation ended.
“Tilura seems fine now. I suppose she tends to act tough, like father. And so I was worried when Rahle left… To be honest, I thought she would come to me and Sherry.”
As her older sister, she had also noticed the change with Tilura, and had been preparing to welcome her.
Regardless, Tilura showed none of the signs of being sad like yesterday. And I could see that Claire was very relieved.
See, Tilura? It would have been completely fine if you went to Claire. She would have accepted you. But I suppose it was still awkward for her.
“Well, maybe there are things you don’t like to say to your family. Regardless, I think she will be fine.”
“Thank you, Mr. Takumi. I experienced similar things at that age. It can be difficult…”
I could only imagine it. Mr. Ekenhart must have had a very difficult time with Claire at that age.
After talking with Claire a little longer, we headed to the dining hall for breakfast…
Once we had eaten breakfast, Leo and Liza played in the garden, while I worked in the fields with Milina and Ms. Lyra’s help.
As for Tilura, she had been taken away by Claire and made to study.
In the meantime, Sebastian approached me again…
“Mr. Takumi. The servants are restless…”
“…Restless?”
He had snuck up on me in order to complain about the servants again.
Even Ms. Lyra and Milina were shocked and had to stifle a scream. So it wasn’t that I was that oblivious or anything…
