The season rolled around and I got one more year old.

In the 16th year since I was reborn, when I turned 16, my face was the only one still a little young, but my body had grown almost entirely into that of an adult.

Teenagers.

He secretly wrapped his tongue around the taste of his ancestors who made up the words, saying that what was often said between youth and boys.

Such a sixteen-year-old spring, I had been watching flowers in the garden with two visitors, Horsen and Miller.

I stared at the scattered flower blizzard.

"Whoa, what's wrong, brother-in-law, get lost."

"Is it time for you to think of a way to rob me? I can always help you."

Hawthorne and Miller, two grown-ups since we met, haven't looked any different. When we met, in a way, the contents of the two children didn't change either. I'm relieved. I'm grinning.

"I won't dare ask you what the robbery is. I don't think so, I think it's time."

"It's about time. Ah? What?"

"Forced Zen Gift"

"I don't mind such a forcible rape-like rhetoric... it's about Ange"

While laughing bitterly, two thoughtful friends...

You look like a brother, you look like a brother, and you can say two of them are best friends.

I revealed it to both of them.

"I'd like to make a proposal."

"Whoa, finally"

"It's time for the boy to pay his annual contribution."

"You kept me waiting... about this age, I thought from the beginning"

At the end of my body growth, I ended up at this age when I grew up to be able to say that I was an adult in shape.

"Hmm? Then what can bother you? I've been waiting for you, so let's see."

Drinking alcohol, he gave me some really hosen-like advice.

"It's not you, it's a lot of things to propose."

"It's a lot of stuff."

"Well...... prepare a hundred roses or a ring comes out at the end of the dinner party. A lot of things."

"Make it a pain in the ass, do I have to do something?

"That's why it wasn't you. In your case, you can have a single spear of" Be My Woman "and" Yes, I understand. "

Horsen and Miller, the two, like friends of a decade, exchanged words without hesitation.

"That's fine with me, brother-in-law. Seriously, what's bothering you?

"I don't want to do what Miller said. Surprise? That kind of surprises me, and I imagine the solitude of the side is too much."

I've seen that a lot in my previous life.

I could have made a surprise and proposed, but I actually didn't feel that way about the other guy, and I witnessed a few awkward scenes ahead of time.

I don't see Ange saying "I don't feel that way," but I still don't want to do surprises.

"Then look at me. You can honestly say," Be mine. "

"Yeah... just be honest with me and marry me,"

That would happen if I didn't have to be surprised, but for keeping Ange waiting for over a decade, I wonder what that is, too.

"... my boy"

"Huh?"

Miller was looking at me with a very serious face, a face so serious that it didn't look inside.

"You just have to tell the kid how you feel, what you want to do"

"What do you want to do?

"Kid's, if you put it together, you're going to want to be happy."

"Yeah, that's right."

"Then you can say that to him. of the boy. That makes me feel good."

Miller said so, scowling his hands beside him unconstitutionally.

A gust winds up and trees in the garden.

Beyond the trees, Avalon's developed streets glanced at him for a moment.

"Like this."

"... Huh! Oh, thank you, Miller. I know what to do."

"Right."

Miller grinned.

Thanks to Miller, I figured out what to do.

Later, on the sword of the wise...

Three days later, a well-sunny afternoon.

I approached her where Ange was flossing in the garden.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

"Dear Alec! I was looking at flowers."

"This is definitely the flower Ange moved out of the mansion."

"Yes, uh, I brought it from my parents"

"Oh, shit, Carlisle, you already moved the mansion."

"Yes."

Ange narrowed her eyes and stared at the flowers.

Ange grew more beautiful than I did when I turned 16.

It wasn't flashy, but it was a beautiful girl everyone would admit.

Instead, the serenity is rarely regarded as worthy of the Mother of Nations by being me, the Father of the Nation.

I spoke even more to Ange like that.

"Ange."

"Yes, what is it, Master Alec?"

"I need to talk to Ange about something important. I want you to see something."

"Important story, is it?

"Yeah, I don't know how I feel, I want Ange to see what I want to do"

"What is it"

……

Smile back at Ange, put your hands together and use magic.

Gather magic at your fingertips to cut out a space with nothing (,,,).

Something like a small window forms in front of Ange and me, and along the contour I glimpse with my fingertips, it opens up pacally.

Ahead of opening, there was a completely different view.

"This... you have a grandmother"

There was an old lady standing across the window.

It's a different place, but it's sitting under the same flower blizzard.

The old lady, standing in elegance, turned around and gave me a happy smile.

"That... this grandmother, like I saw somewhere..."

Ange curiously strapped her neck and then turned her gaze to me for answers.

I smiled back and told him the answer.

"This is Ange."

"Wow, me?

"Technically, Ange of the future"

Again, I saw the void at my fingertips.

Another window opened and now the child was moved out.

I can clearly tell this one, it looks familiar.

"Ah, it's me! This... when you went to the bird store with Master Alec?

"You remember me well."

"Yes! I remember everything about you and Alec!

Ange nodded as Nico laughed.

"Oh well. Actually, this is magic, beyond time and space, with a view of the past and the future. I have a lot of constraints, and I don't see anything that would change my destiny."

"Really..."

"Conversely, what I see now, what's in the future, is absolutely going to happen. I mean, this grandma, Ange, is Ange of the future."

"Looks happy...... me in the future"

"Yeah."

I nodded and took Ange's hand.

Take your hand, face her, and stare straight in the eye.

"I want to be happy until Ange becomes a grandmother."

"... ah"

You noticed something, Ange faded, then dyed her cheeks and nagged.

Still, with a slight uplift, he stares at me with a softness and a mixture of expectations.

"All the time, I want to be happy. Be my wife."

"... Yes, Master Alec"

Ange nodded quietly and held my hand back.
