For the announcement of Mary Albert's pregnancy, it was a fancy party.
Even so, Mary's stomach slows with each passing day but strengthens her claim, and her surroundings become overprotective in proportion to it. Something that anyone would notice if they were watching Mary and the changes around her.
Still, I spent it without pointing it out as anyone else, and when the party was held, I was finally waiting for this day to be announced with anticipation and blessings.
The moment of the announcement that so welcomed.
Mary was all alone in her gaze of anticipation, without feeling nervous or anxious. The hands that accompany your hips belong to Addy. If I stay away for a moment, my big hand is gently supporting me.
"I have something to share with you."
Slowly, Mary tells me not to scream, but still to pass on inside the venue.
I was given a new life.
If I told him that, the venue boiled all at once. Everyone speaks the words of celebration and is as happy as they are about themselves. The supplicants have stopped their hands only at this moment, and are there not even some of them that weep?
"Mary" was called out in that way.
Lang and Lucien walk over here. There was a small box in Lang's hand that Mary had offered before asking him anything.
"Again, congratulations, Mary. This is a gift from us."
"Gifts...... My brother's been giving me presents lately."
Mary laughed like a prank.
Lang and Lucien make a gift to Mary after she tells her pregnancy in Silvino.
The contents of the gift can vary and can be something that Mary would love, or for a baby to be born. On the contrary, I sometimes come with Addy to give him a cushion, and that's when the shudder prevailed over the thanksgiving.
So I'm sure we'll have something for you today, yes, Mary expects it, and now she's right.
But today, Lucien has told me, "This is special." Sure, neither Lang nor Lucian is as excited as they usually are, and they are settling down for a long time. On the contrary, I can even see a serious shade in my eyes staring at Mary.
Mary received a small box from Lang questioning what the hell was going on with her serious brothers attitude that didn't seem to be.
It's a beautifully packaged box. I feel slight weight when I take it in my hand.
"It's the finest gift we can give to Mary and Addy."
"And to my two children... No, it's a gift that goes on and on..."
Watched by Lang and Lucien smiling calmly, Mary gently unwraps the gift.
So slowly open the last white box left......,
"What is this..."
and groaned.
Addy breathes as she peeks inside the box alongside Mary.
My surroundings, which was a celebratory mood, have also noticed it, and I have turned my gaze wondering what happened to a few of them.
But there's no room for Mary right now to answer the gaze of doubt. Instead, I gently retrieved what was trapped in the small box.
Beautiful and radiant...... pocket watch.
It's an expensive substitute at a glance. But the true value of this pocket watch is not the price.
Meaning put in there. authority given to those who have this.
This pocket watch is a testament to the Lord of the Albert family.
Although Mary also had it in her hands once, she stuck it back to her father by declaring that she was going to have this as a legitimate heir. It doesn't change its weight or its radiance from then on.
"Brother, this... to me...?
"Oh, it's a gift from us to Mary. You'll take it, won't you?
"But I have to give priority to children over our Lord's work..."
"Naturally, of course. That's why we support Mary... We are so happy that Mary and Mary's children can be supported..."
To the two words, Mary, staring at the pocket watch at hand, slowly raised her face. My brothers are staring at me. What sweet eyes.
And at the same time as kindness, I can also see the color of firm determination.
On this occasion today, countless people declared that they had decided to take over from Mary by giving it to her.
Understanding the feeling, Mary grabbed the pocket watch in her hand all the time. On that hand, Addy's hand overlaps one turn bigger than his own.
"Hey, Addy. Our Lord's job in raising our first child...... This is gonna be tough."
"Yeah, I think it's tough. … but"
Say it, Addy smiled calmly.
I guess I'm staring at Mary because she gives up the words ahead of me. It's more like you dined on Mary's proclamation.
Then Mary also intended, holding her hand strongly, wrapped in Addy's hand.
"No matter how hard it is, we'll be fine!
If Mary told me, Addy nodded forcefully and gave it back to me.
Not to mention the cheer of the moment, but as much as when I heard about Mary's pregnancy. Instead, I am more excited than earlier that the celebrations have overlapped, and I wonder if I can even hear the celebration cup around me.
Mary and Addy face to face. Addy's hand gently moved away from Mary, rubbing her stomach once gently and holding her gently when she could accompany her hips again.
We'll be fine.
Mary's grin intensifies at the words of Addy, who tells her straight as she stares with enthusiastic eyes.
It would be fine if Addy stayed next door. Besides, my child will be added, so I have no anxiety about how hard it will be. All I have is expectation and hope.
Most of all, in this cheer,
"Dear Mary, I! I'm here, too! Dear Mary!!
Alicia's voice that or
"Mary, you have brothers too! It didn't take long for Addy and I to get into the world, but we're always there for Mary!
"... our lovely Mary. If you can, you can keep an eye on us..."
And, to the voice of the brothers who appealed from the side, I just held my shoulders in awe.
"Congratulations, dear Mary"
To the words of celebration from Karina and Margaret, Mary smiled back as she sat on the bench in the garden.
Cape of soft material on the shoulder, kneecap covered long to toe. Cushions are placed on both sides and there is also a cotton back.
Karina and Margaret laugh joyfully at Mary's situation, which is completely protected. They said the state of Mary, wrapped in a blanket and buried in a cushion, was a topic of discussion even across countries.
Now I had difficulty pretending not to notice, the same as I published. Yes, they chilled me, and Mary laughed lightly. What an embarrassing story.
"Mary and Addy's children, you must be a lovely child. I look forward to seeing you, too."
"Thank you, Mr. Karina"
"And the inheritance... I knew about the children beforehand, but I can't believe I decided to take over on this occasion. Mary just startled me."
To Karina's story, Mary laughs corny. The voice "I'm sorry" is fun while I'm at it, and none of the apology colors are available.
I realized I was just rocking the social world when I found out I was pregnant, but ended up rocking the social world again this time. This is not going to fix anyway.
That's why if Mary laughed, Karina smiled bitterly. I can feel friendship in her voice saying, "That's Mary, isn't it?"
Then Mary and Karina aligned themselves and turned their gaze to Margaret, who is somehow thinking. Did you come up with something? I have a serious look on my face from earlier.
"The decision to succeed Mary and Addy's children, the Albert family...... This is the advent of a new era…"
"I can't believe this is a new era, Mr. Margaret."
"I'm sure Bernard will be impressed and determined to move on to the next step. This is a tremendous opportunity to be proposed, it is now time to let go of an extreme hand......!
"I don't hate that attitude when new times come."
I laugh back at Mary's words, such as half friendship and half friendship, that Karina is the usual thing to do.
But calm bickering stopped perfectly because, "Stinging? 'Cause I heard a young voice.
If you look, she looks like Anna, dressed in a pink dress and rushing over here with a patty. Following it is Elaine wrapping her classic dress around.
As the Langs arrived from behind, they must have guided us this far.
"Anna, Elaine, there you are"
"What are you talking about?
"That's a word that drops the person you want. The outfit and timing of this place, and the fact that it only works if you let it go with the finest smile."
"Please don't tell Anna anything weird. Anna, these sisters (...) are scared, so let's go that way. There's cake over there."
If Mary grabs Anna's shoulder and invites her, Margaret laughs corny.
"What do you mean by sisters (...)," Karina asks, ignoring. I hear it with a cold, beautiful smile, that's what I'm afraid of.
We seem to be aware of that, and we heard a pleasant voice from behind Mary running away saying, "Hey, excuse me," "Yeah, really."
