Lately, my brother, who is shunning me, was rarely staring at me. I get in the mood for losing too.
"Your father admitted it. I'll keep you away from your brother, so can you leave the rest alone already?
"... I can't even bear to think I live in the same mansion as such a scrupulous cat. Lili, please, get rid of him now. It's frightening to have something with you that's not beautiful."
"I told you this kid would die without me. Or does your brother say you don't mind if this child dies?
"... you can't help it because it's not beautiful. If I die now, I may be reborn into a beautiful cat next. I'm sure you'd be happier for him."
"... sucks"
I couldn't forgive the words my brother flatly unleashed.
My brother doesn't think of his life as his life. I ran out of saying that something that wasn't beautiful was worthless, that it could die.
This cat is an important family I've decided to help and will continue to live with. I couldn't allow them to say 'you can die' of that.
"I hate my brother!!"
"Huh! Lili......!
"Please leave. I would never throw this kid away! This kid is my precious family. I can't allow you to be demeaned!
Staring at his brother, he stepped back like he was under pressure.
And Al agrees.
"Hugo, that's obviously your fault. Lili is naturally angry.... think about the meaning of what you said and put it back out."
"So, Your Highness..."
"Dear Hugo. This is what the lady says, and can you walk away from the room and wear it? This is your daughter's room."
Luke took my side, too.
Brother Hugo looked alternately at Al and Luke's face and when he finally turned to me, he shook his neck sideways saying he couldn't believe it.
"Impossible. Why, to Your Highness? I didn't say anything wrong...!
Then he turned back his heel, and left the room as if fleeing.
"... brother"
I said I hated it.
It was momentum on the spot, but I wonder if it was just too much.
Quickly regret brings a neck. But I won't go back to what I said.
"... Lili, I don't care. You were right."
"Al."
As my brother stared at the door he left, Al said to comfort me.
"It's strange that you're telling me that if I leave you, you'll die, but if I don't have a choice, I still order you to throw it away. It's okay. Hugo's a smart guy, too. I'm sure you'll understand soon."
"Right..."
Nodding in Al's words. Now, I just had to believe Al's words.
"Nah."
"Oh, I'm sorry"
As if, as I told you not to forget about this one, the cat rang. That obstinate feeling of voice is adorable, and the feeling that I was about to perish surfaces.
"You, you're so clumsy, I can't believe everyone said that, but you've been so neat."
After the meal, the cat, who looked satisfied for now, was scratching her own ears with her feet as she looked fuzzy and in a good mood.
I stare at that face again. Big ears of nose pepper. Legs are only about a third the length of a normal cat.
Not much of a cat to look at. So I guess everyone tells me it's frivolous, but it looked cute enough to me right now. Is this what you want?
"It's okay. I'll take care of you. Your father gave me permission, too, and I'm fine. You're our cat."
That's what I say as I stroke my head. Al said, peeking into the cat from beside me.
"So? What name do you give this kid?
"Right......"
The name of the cat...... I can't think of anything suddenly when they say that. But because of that, I wanted to give it a good name.
"Anyway... I'd like to name someone very famous in history."
"Isn't that bad? I think you're losing your name. Candidates?"
"... Noel"
At that moment, Picun and the cat reacted. On the contrary, Al frowns "eh".
"What's Noel, that? The Great Wizard, who is now admirably missing. I'm sure everyone knows a celebrity... but I don't think that's a very good name."
"... I agree with Your Highness"
I looked sinister to Luke.
"Why, did you think to pick a name like Noel?
"Um, I don't care how you say it, but if you dare, when I look at this kid, it's because I've always had a name on my head? I wonder. And that great wizard is just missing, and he's still alive, isn't he? I want you to live long enough, so I was wondering if it would be just fine."
"... it's been over ten years since I've seen you go missing? They treat me like I'm missing because I can't get a body up, but I think it's good to recognize that I'm dead"
"Nyah!!"
The cat rang, protesting for some reason.
I stroke that back so I can forgive you.
"Isn't that good? Intuition is important. This kid, I'm starting to feel like he's wearing a face called 'Noel'. So this kid's name is Noel."
"... The Great Wizard Noel is famous for his super beautiful men, isn't he? Are you sure you want to put it on this scratch?
"... it's fine"
For a moment, I worried about what to do, but I figured I came to the conclusion that it was nothing but the name 'Noel', so I decided to leave it at that.
"You start today, Noel. Good?"
"Nah!
Lifting with both hands, the cat - Noel replied fine. It's like you know what we're talking about. Maybe he's a very smart kid.
"... ma, okay. If Lili says that's good."
"Right..."
Al and Luke nod at each other as they look subtle.
Thus, Noel the Cat became my new family.
