Drop!! ~A Tale of the Fragrance Princess~ (WN)
End of story
Dili, sitting in her chair, stared at the bottle of candy she had brought home as a souvenir of the inspection. Though I'm glad you liked me so much, if you seem to be watching all that, I guess you can't help but think that you could do a little of my opponent as well.
"So much, you like candy?
"Yeah. People's lives feel like this candy candy."
"... with candy?
"Various colors, different flavors. I felt the same way about people's lives being diverse."
"Look at the candy. I don't know if you've thought about that for a second. Candy will not move on its own."
But you don't have to say that. Dillie would understand.
After a moment, I don't think you might be thinking of anything different as you look at it, nor do I particularly think of it.
"What's wrong?
"That, if you don't want to eat, can I have it?
"Huh?"
"Wouldn't it be funny if they took dilly for all the candy treats?
"What kind of way to be jealous, that is. Candy is not a person."
With that said, Dili also opened the lid of the bottle and offered it to me. When I threw one into the interview in my hand, the sweet taste spread quickly. Enjoying the flavor, Dili groaned pompously.
"There was something called a drop of candy like this."
"Yeah?"
"And words like leaving and falling, I sometimes used that. I remember that."
I can't see the story any more. That's what I think, Dillie grinned.
"Don't tell me any more"
"You're gonna stop talking to me a lot where I'm concerned."
Still seemed like too much fun, so I didn't pursue it in depth either.
I don't know what it is, but for Dillie now, that's something I've already solved, and yet now I'm satisfied and happy, because if I look at that look, I know it.
I thought asking would get in the way of it, trying to protect that look, which seemed so.
