Afterwards, I walked around the compound, guided by Aldar, so that I would not miss his words, which spoke sadly, regrettably, lonely... and spontaneously.
The inside of the separate house, as I imagined, was very calm and splendid even though it was a little old-fashioned.
If you think of it as the value of a building, it's high class.
If you say it from the perspective of a maid, it can be said that it is a separate residence with no shame even if you invite high-ranking nobility and royalty. I can assure you.
Of course, when it comes to welcoming such customers, there are such things as whether it is better to change the carpets and curtains...
Anyway.
As a child, there must have been somewhere more than here if we could just push the disturbing bastard in.
The fact that she was spending so much time with her mother and child in such a splendid place might mean that Count Baum was going to meet her mistress and the mourner she had set up in between after receiving permission from Alyssa.
And maybe they chose it as the place to surround their mistress.
If that were the case, perhaps… it might not have been so unfortunate for Aldar.
No, in the first place, because Mrs. Credritus has not been able to accept a [son] named [Ardal], it is bankrupt, so it is useless to assume that.
Are you okay?
"... just a little bit. There's still something painful."However, as I said before, I just know who she is and why she neglects me... no. "
"Aldar..."
"Don't worry, I have a family now."Yulia stays next to me....... I didn't know anything when I was here. "
Aldar's gently laughing face certainly seemed to have blown away.
I know he's making compromises about the area, but I also suspected that if I were to meet Mrs. Credritus in person, my emotions would be shaken...
(Looks like you didn't have to worry about that.)
When Ardal grew up, I thought it was a big place to wander around.
I feel pain in my chest when I think that a young child was panting in solitude in this large building.
But that's not good enough anymore.
Even with all the memories of those days, Ardal must have decided to swallow them today.
I'll see to it.
"... let's go home, Julia." If you stop by Baum Mansion and say hello to your mothers-in-law, you might be asked to stay.... "
“I don't think so.After all, I'm scheduled to take a day off tomorrow to rest my body on my way home today... and so is Ardal, right? "
"But if you stay one more night at Baum Mansion, you'll be working the day after tomorrow, right?"I'm used to it, but isn't Yulia hard? "
"It's okay! I have experience as a maid, and I don't have a problem with that."I'm more in a hurry when I go home! "
When I said that and laughed, Ardal laughed too.
Alright, this is the air.
Speaking of homecoming, I wonder if the letter has arrived to your father by now.
I hope you haven't pulled your hips out by now... well, your mother-in-law will be doing something about it.
Your mother-in-law will be delighted, but when you imagine it, you realize that the relationship between parents and children has been quite restored at home.
For Aldar, his family is now Alyssa and Dean Dain, not his dream mother.
I'm sure you've confirmed that.
"... at a young age."
Yeah.
"If I got a family... I've thought about what I want to do."
Aldar said that as he slowly walked down the corridor step by step.
Everyone draws a very natural future... I don't know how he felt at a young age.
As he grew up, as a son of a nobleman... he only knew his responsibilities so strongly that he began to give up and never gave up.
Knowing that, I grabbed Aldar's arm hard.
"...... Yulia?"
It may not be all of them, but let's make it happen.
Huh?
“I've thought about it since I was a child.If you give birth to a girl, stop pushing the pink flutter and don't get angry even if you climb a tree! "
"...... that's what I didn't like about getting hit?"
"You didn't climb trees, did you?"That's Melek's story. "
Melek couldn't get close because he wanted to climb trees, but his parents couldn't.
It was a tree that was low enough not to get hurt if it fell, but... I thought it would be nice if there was an adult beside me and I was always careful.
Well, I understand it's my parents' affection that something shouldn't happen to my precious trace son, so I never said it out loud!
I'll tell you now, Merek isn't good at exercising... I let him do it, and there's no denying the possibility of him falling after climbing it.
But if you are a child, you can have a little fun. It is the adult's job to cover it.
No, I'll stop if you do anything nonsense!!
"...... I'm just saying that I'm welcome back is a good relationship."There will be days when you can't say it, as far as you can.Think of each other, tell each other how you feel, and talk about what happened that day..... "
Yeah.
“On holidays, I spend time with my family.”
Sounds good.
"If I have a child, I want to be a father that doesn't make me feel lonely..."
You can be one of them.
I was a little worried that Aldar, who replied to my words, might cry, but it didn't happen.
He looked at me with dazzling eyes and laughed gently.
When I saw it, I thought I was loved, too.
Somehow, I don't know about that, but somehow something fell into Stonn's mind.
"... are you back?"
Mrs. Credritus stood like that day in front of us as we came to the front hall.
Both the serene appearance and the harsh gaze are exactly the same as on that day.
Just like that time, she only had Aldar in her eyes.
Are the other servants backing down, or is the guard outside?
There are no signs of people around, and there is a sense of nervousness.
It was me who thought we should get out of here before it was too bad air, but Ardal was different.
"Mrs. Credritus."
"... are you back?"
Yeah.
Thank you very much for that.
Just one word, okay?
What is it?
Unchanged, calm voice.
Releasing his arm, he quietly lowered his head, thinking that he had hugged me on the shoulder.
"I am grateful that you have given birth to me under any circumstances."
……
“I don't think we'll see each other again.I don't want you to be healthy, but I want you to know that. "
Aldar's words stiffened Mrs. Credritus's eyes wide open.
That's right, I don't think she knew Ardal's real mother was herself.
Well, even if many people don't know the truth, even those who do don't want to be bothered by Countess Baum to reveal it to Ardal!
In the first place, people with good sense don't say, "That person who hates you is the real parent."
Anyway, even if she didn't say anything, Ardal would have been happy to say what he wanted to say.
She passed beside me, holding my shoulder.
Just like when I came.
Goodbye.
Still, the last thing he said quietly was... it seemed like he was lonely.
