At lunch, we finally woke up from the bedroom.

Until then, I was long gone. It was a happy, wandering time to listen to you, stroke your head, mouth to mouth.

I hope it lasts forever, but it doesn't, with a raw hatred.

Neither Mary nor Natalia would have taken care of me or visited the room, but I was just hungry.

When Master Wilhelm and I went to the dining room, Natalia had already prepared lunch for us.

Nothing in particular was asked about the upside of things. Perhaps Mary was listening to yesterday's conversation between me and Master Wilhelm and the flow from it.

Just.

Just one word.

When you carried me a meal, you just said a small "congratulations" to me.

……

……

That's what we are right now, where we can finish our meals and see your garden, side by side.

Master Wilhelm is taking my weight while I lean on one side. In that state, I'm reading.

Master Wilhelm has also been wearing glasses and reading books for the first time in a long, slow holiday. You don't have to exchange any words with each other, you can rest assured that the body temperature you touch is just there.

The truth is, I was due for a lecture today, too. But I'm off due to a few circumstances.

Well, it's something I've been in bed with all day in the first place, so I didn't even have time to get ready. So I'm already reporting that I'm sending Mary to the garrison to take the day off. in the form of ill health.

Noontime reading, feeling such a Wilhelm-like body temperature.

Very, very happy.

"... Phew"

Master Wilhelm could see his glasses removed and rubbed between his eyes.

He still doesn't have very good eyesight for his old age. He also said his eyes were tiresome.

"Would you like to take a break? Dear Wilhelm,"

"Mmm...... oh right. Have some tea."

"Yes, Natalia, prepare it"

"Yes, sir."

I order Natalia, who is serving the side, to do so.

He's waiting for me in a position that's out of my sight, as if it's okay for me to say anything whenever I want, but without getting in my way. You can really count on it.

Phew, and Master Wilhelm sighed again.

"But was it good? Carol."

"Yes?"

"No, if it's true... it's time for a lecture by now"

"Well...... I'm not really sorry to give you a break either"

I mean it. If it's true, I want to give a lecture without rest.

Neither hygiene nor first aid have yet penetrated all of the Knights. For one thing, there seems to be no sign of a war, but still, no matter what happens, because it's the basics to avoid as many casualties as possible. I think there will be a huge reduction in the number of deaths, even if there is a concept of hygiene or not.

But only today, it's different.

"Hey, this is my situation,"

"Hmm?"

"... because it hurts more than I thought"

"... sorry"

"Yes, no, you don't have to apologize, Master Wilhelm. That's what I wanted."

It still hurts. At least, it doesn't look like we can make a solid move today.

No, I heard about the pain. It's not like I asked anyone, but puberty doesn't have to be intentional to get that kind of information in it.

So I was ready. It was just really more than I imagined.

And then, it was more intense than the knowledge I was hearing... Dear Wilhelm.

"Then it's a beautiful day and I was wondering if I could go out... relax at home today"

"Yes. I, too, am happy to be with you this way"

Wilhelm-like body temperature, felt on the shoulder.

Just being in touch makes me feel at ease.

I am sincerely happy just to say that the scent of Master Wilhelm is nearby.

I wish this time would last forever...

"Carol."

"Yes, Master Wilhelm"

"Non is happy, too. I never thought I'd spend time with someone like this."

Master Wilhelm will gently stroke my head.

If you stroke me with a big hand, I feel fluffy. I want you to do more, but it's like it's not enough, it's a feeling I don't really understand. Me, it's just emotions I haven't been sure about lately.

"Well... Carol, now... this kind of nonsense, thank you"

"I am the unsub, thank you"

"Uhm... you two, let's be happy"

"Oh."

Ugh, and I'll do my hand on your mouth.

Master Wilhelm had raised an eyebrow and raised a question mark all over his face.

Sure, right? I would certainly, of course, answer immediately.

But.

"Dear Wilhelm, it may be... difficult"

"Duh, what do you mean?

"No......"

Gently, rub your stomach.

Master Wilhelm has engraved your testimony, and touch it.

"Somehow, though"

If they call it a woman's reckoning, that's it.

If they say it's just hope, there's no word to give it back.

Just really.

I don't know, like I'm getting a hunch.

"I feel a new life here."

Me and Master Wilhelm's, crystals of love.

Just a hunch, but I'm sure here, a new life will dwell.

Boy or girl, I don't know about that though.

At that time.

"So... family, let's be happy"

"... oh yeah"

Gently, Master Wilhelm was also stroked in my stomach and smiled.

Smile like that, and I'll smile too.

I want this happiness to last forever - and with that in mind, I leaned in with Master Wilhelm.

I, Carol Ambrose, sixteen. Soon, seventeen.

As the young wife of Master Wilhelm, I am happy -.
