Not knowing that such disturbances had occurred a few days earlier, the Albert family's garden had a holiday regular tea party.
It is Princess Alicia, who surrounds the finely crafted white table, and Patrick, who, as the next king, has expectations from foreign countries as well as the people, and Addy, who, although hesitant at first to "sit with this face without a daughter......" these days naturally takes his seat.
For whoever is not of the Albert family while keeping it open in the gardens of the Albert family is waiting for Mary, needless to say.
"Dear Mary, it's late."
"He's got construction at the border, so maybe he's caught up in it."
"Oh, but maybe they make a bunch of friends at Eleciana School, and we're all playing"
"" It's not ""
"Dear Patrick and Addy, you don't have to speak up and deny anything..."
"I can't imagine that Mary playing with her friends"
"I don't think your daughter will be aggressive in just one year of study abroad"
"I'm not asking for details! That's too harsh for both of you!
Already! and Addy and Patrick glanced at each other and clapped their shoulders at Alicia, who swelled her cheeks. "Because," he said, "Yeah, really," but that look is because the two of you have known Mary for a long time.
Heavenly devil, mean, easy to understand and hard to understand, can't accidentally put others into his territory, then if he wears a cat, he can play a loving courtier. Because of that personality, that's how I stomped on making 'home pipes' at Eleciana School, where I was only studying for a year, but I wouldn't make 'friends'.
Terrible, in fact, Mary was not willing to make particularly close friends by playing the unsubstantiated maid. Most of all, the current situation and a certain warrant miss me, but Mary tells me that this is also, "How did this happen?".
Such an attitude between the two, Alicia seemed to have some thoughts as she denounced it, "Speaking of which, in the meantime..." she brought with her potpourri.
Months before going back.
As now, there was a tea party at the Albert family, but at that time only Mary and Alicia were in their seats because of Addy and Patrick's absence. - Of course, Mary complained about the tea party just for the two of us: "If you need me and I'm allowed to not attend, I don't have to come back every time, either," but Alicia's happy to say, "Yes, that's why you make up two cakes today! ♪ The word scrambled me ♪
For a while then, at long leisure, I enjoyed the conversation with the usual driving that occasionally Mary would sarcastically or ball-shash, and I called out to Alicia, "Hey," as Fumi Mary thought.
I peek into Mary's face wondering what the hell happened to Alicia in her serious face and swimming gaze.
"What's going on?
"You know, I need to ask you something..."
"Is it to me? Of course, I'll answer anything you can."
"Yes, then I ask... maybe, just in case..."
Tension also runs over Alicia wondering how Mary is doing, not at all like her, and that's why it's so hard to hear by then.
Is it about the house, maybe about the birth? Or about Patrick and the royal succession... Given my rare life as an orphan to a princess, it's not strange for anyone to have one or two hard questions to ask. That Alicia is also prepared, sometimes hurting the unmalicious curiosity and questions of those who do not know the circumstances, and countless things to delude with making laughter.
But at any rate, Alicia, unwilling to hide one thing, of course, if the other is Mary, consolidated her determination to "answer anything" and waited for Ji to say her next word.
That's how Mary slowly opens her mouth......
"... could we be friends?"
That's what I said, and Mary stares at Alicia with a serious look.
You're ready and waiting for a response, or if Alicia is flabbergasted that she doesn't have words for a serious eye and an attitude of even breathtaking urgency, she says before, "We're aligned!" He pressed, and tea swayed in the teacup that somehow became Mary's favorite use.
"That was a little... No, I missed you a lot"
That's what I'm done talking about. Alicia sighs remembering the time. Addy and Patrick also held their heads to this story: "... to the boulder. It's" "How much is Mary, not that far..."
but Patrick remembered something and said, "If you say so, so do I."
Going back, this another few months.
Back when Patrick, who wasn't too busy with the issue of whether or not to enter the royal family for a succession change to the Dies, finally started unloading his shoulders with the help of the Alberts. Of course there was Mary's consideration there, so we were friends sarcastically with each other, but this time we visited her in an honest attempt to thank her.
As a heartfelt thank you, the heavenly devil turns to Hui and replies, "Nothing, I didn't do anything."
Patrick smiled small at that discerning attitude, usually about to hitch a ride to her heavenly devil, but only today I turned again.
"Thank you very much, Mary."
"Oh, my God, what's going on...?
"If you have any problems, don't hesitate to tell me. Whatever happens, it will always be in your power."
Mary rushes out to Patrick, who tells her to face it.
It's not normal to be on your own. Patrick today is going to say strangely straight words, and he's going to flatten out the line that's going to embarrass this one who's also listening.
While Mary was perplexed by it, she still joked and laughed and showed, "If I get kicked out of the Albert family, maybe I'll get some help." But in contrast, without breaking his serious expression, Patrick nodded deeply once, staring straight at Mary as if it were a "Dralogy" romance scene.
"Of course. No matter what happens to you, even if they kick you out of the house, I'll always be there for you."
"... Patrick"
Straight from the front, she is given a line as if it were a verbal complaint, where Mary reinforces the colour of her confusion. The blue eyes have a strong will and I feel like I'm complaining that I'm not kidding. If this is another warrant lady, Mary the boulder will also be driven insane to the point where her chest may be too elevated to fall.
We then stared at each other for a while without saying anything and peered into Patrick's face as Mary muttered "by the way..." to break that silence.
"... I know enough that you're grateful to me, but how can you even try to help me when I'm no longer the Albert family courtier?
It's not gonna be the Albert family, is it? and again pressed the precaution, as if to the tone of Mary, who said strangely and irresistibly, the questioned Patrick lost his words.
"... that's what happened. I think it's just rude to me beyond being negligent or dull."
Alicia nods cocklessly at Patrick, who gracefully drinks tea and talks pale. The beginning and end of me covering my face with both hands when I said I couldn't stand to hear it leading up to Addy.
Two gaze at Addy like that, because of course he is the next person to talk about this fluidly. And more importantly, I can expect that he, who understands Mary better than anyone, will be able to explain what he's been talking about.
I mean, "Come on, explain," so I guessed it. Addy was covering his face. Slowly releasing his hand, he clasped his shoulder with a sigh.
"Your daughter is too much of an Albert girl."
And I started talking.
