Beware of the Brothers - Chapter 14

The season has changed and it has become spring.

In the gardens of Vastia, marigolds that give off a dark yellow color are in full bloom. Decorating the house with blooming spring flowers became a new hobby for Mrs. Vastia.

With spring coming, Johannes, Cabel, and Erich went back to academy again. I was writing to him almost every two or three weeks because of Cabel’s torch.

[Brother Cabel, how many years have you been in school and you still don’t know if you still have to take the graduation exam?]

[When I asked brother Johan, he said that even if you’re an undergraduate swordsman, you didn’t just have to take a practical exam?]

[Oh, I went to my brother’s room and you left all the books I bought during vacation. Maybe I forgot my brother that forgot, so I took care of it instead. I don’t think our wonderful and great Cabel brother will be fail.]

[I’m a little worried though. If you can’t graduate on time, you have to stay longer than originally planned. So what do I do because I want to see you? Of course it won’t happen.]

I had to write most letters to him.

The second brother graduation is now in front of him, and he may not even know if he need to take the graduation exam or not, and as soon as he start a new semester, he threw the spirit of failing all subjects in the first exam.

Of course, my education center (?) for the second brother has been,

‘Oh, oh, oh, my second brother, you can study a bit, so let’s just buy it!’

When he received it, he could not help but become obsessed with it under my eyes. Still, he wasn’t failing all subjects until last year, but why suddenly did this happen?

Maybe this guy wielded his sword every day and trained his body to become muscular than his brain.

So I decided to rebuild the second brother before it was later and irreversible.

Fortunately, after sending a few letters of that kind of content, Cabel noticed my worries.

Of course, he will have to take a test to see what his next grade will be, but I was glad that he had the motivation to study at first.

“Now it’s real spring.”

I sealed a letter to Cabel, then raised my head and looked out the window. Outside, pink petals were scattered like white snowflakes.

I finished the letter to Eugene this time, enjoying the warm spring breeze blowing from the window.

[And these days, the weather is warm, so I think it’s good to go for a walk.]

[Nevertheless, don’t forget at night, you must close the window and had a sleep.]

[Because there is a big difference in weather, it is easy to catch a cold. Even if you don’t, brother does a lot of work and is busy, but please, you shouldn’t be sick.]

Hmm, the vibe of letters to Eugene and letters to Cabel seems different? It’s probably because of the mood. Perhaps.

[ps. I’m always looking forward to meeting you again.]

After writing the last sentence, I shook the paper so that the ink dries quickly.

It was this spring when we first decided to return to Ernst, after the first talk came out last winter. So, it is not too long before I really meet him.

I have already been waiting for that day, which has not even been set.

“Sister, let’s go outside with me!”

I gave Albert a letter to mail today and turned around, and Louis suddenly popped out from behind the pillar. She was looking up at me and her eyes were shining brightly.

“Now?”

“Yeah! Would you like to go to the flower market before you come?”

The story of Mrs. Flora’s story yesterday, and Louis excitement, It must not have been a coincidence.

Well, it’s just a minute, so it would be okay if I talked to Albert and went out.

“Yes. Instead, you’re going to the real flower market today, okay?”

“Soon, we started getting ready to go out.”

“Sister, come on a second.”

But Luise was excited about today. When I went to the sound of calling me, I saw Louisa simulating what she was doing with some maids.

“Let’s decorate with my sister and me! Let’s go out like a real-sister! Like a friend! Marian says it’s trendy these days!”

“What are you going to do?”

As it was spring, Louise was so excited to go out, so I noticed that I was just losing it to her request. A maid with good dexterity touched Louise and my hair.

Today, I braid my hair a little bit on both sides. Standing round hair as it was shaped. Louis was the same as me.

After that, we wore a wide brim hat decorated with colored flowers. I wondered what the hell was it and how to decorate it, but Louise was satisfied with this.

I usually couldn’t help it because the two of us had different tastes. Still, we both wore a one-piece with white and gold points overall.

I thought it might be a little more colorful than the other times, but it is also spring, and Louise said it is not too much. I decided to go out in this state in the end.

“Then we will go.”

“Both of you are bright like spring along today.”

Butler Albert laughed and showed us off the door with our arms crossed like a real-sister. We also felt good about his praise and laughed face to face.

Even in the carriage, Louise was excited. It was the same thing as I felt bright too.

Let’s say it’s because the flower market.

I was accustomed to going on the street because I was selling things on the street of the downtown I stopped by, long time ago, in the past.

Finally, as we arrived at the destination, the wagon stopped. I smiled at the person reaching out the door.

“Thank you, Sir Cheshire.”

He was a knight that followed as our escort. My greetings blushed his cheeks. I was impressed to see it.

Of course, it was a little pointless to say that ‘I came back’ because it was my last life that water rose on my beauty, but how long have my waits been since I want to go back to 7 years old again?

Now, after one or two more years, my beauty’s history will begin in earnest. Come quickly, that day!

“Wow! I think it smells like a flower already!”

As Louise said, it seemed like a soft floral scent in the air. Flower market opens from noon.

Now that we’re in busy hour, we’re probably in the middle of the crowded visitor.

We walked together towards it. And finally, when we arrived, there was a splendid view of spring.

It was spectacular to see colorful flowers on display.

“Louise, don’t go too far.”

“Okay!”

Many people visited the market to buy seasonal flowers. I looked around for a while and then stopped at one place.

The peony, which is a mixture of red, light pink, and white, is very covetous and pretty. Wow, this can’t be not being bought!

Eventually, I purchased a peony impulsively. But the owner’s aunt gave too much bonus. If I don’t go to the wagon well, I will spill it. So I decide to put it first.

“Should I carry it for you?”

“It’s okay. I can carry it with Luise.”

Isn’t we someone you should protect? As he shouldn’t be holding flowers, I refused to ask the escort driver for a help, and then came to Louise.

By the way, where’s Louise went, she was invisible.

Nope, for some reason, I asked her not to go far away, but I wasn’t so worried because it was clear that Louise had an knight escorting her.

“Lady Louise is going over there, I saw it.”

Following the word of the escort, I crossed the flower market. As we walked a little further, the street we usually went shopping in showed us.

She lost…… isn’t she? It’s a crowded place when you walked, and it’s also a place we’ve not often seen before.

So did she come here because she want to buy something or watch something?

Our roads may be crossing, so I wondered if it would be better to have a carriageway. I pondered for a moment and then turned to the right.

“Oh.”

It seems that I was careless ahead of my mind. I couldn’t see the person in front of me, so I stopped and bumped myself from the front.

Patter.

In the wind, the flowers in my arms overflowed, and a few fell down. I lost my balance at the moment, as I bumped into someone.

Fortunately, the person held his arm reflexively, so I didn’t fall back. Ugh, isn’t this when the escort driver should help?

I haven’t been able to get a more foolish things for some reason! I opened my mouth to say thank you to the person who held me in front.

“Are you okay?”

But the next moment, I couldn’t say anything out of my mouth and stopped breathing. The cool, cold voice that rang from above my head.

At the same time, it felt as if time had stopped.

“Oh, sorry. Please forgive me for the rude.”

Soon after he interpreted the reason differently at why I’m stunned, his hand that held my arm fell. Shortly thereafter again, a polite yet dry voice dug into my eardrum.

“I did not see what was in front of me, so I was rude.”

My hand holding the flower trembled because it couldn’t hide the nursery rhymes. I slightly bowed my head and today I wear a wide brim hat.

I couldn’t see the person’s face, but I just knew who he was by the voices I heard. Oh, what should I do…?

I barely breathed a shallow breath out of my mouth, holding my chest, which started to boom.

“For the falled flowers….”

“Sister Hari!”

I heard a voice calling me not far away.

At that very moment, the atmosphere from the person in front of me has just changed. His voice is no longer continuous as he stopped on.

I.. I imagined countless days the day I met him again.

When we meet again, I should smile. I have to face his face and smile brightly. And said I missed him.

He had a lot of trouble enduring alone. Now let’s stay together without breaking up. I should have said that, and I was thinking.

“Hari?”

But I never knew I couldn’t say anything like this, and I would cry like a fool in front of him. The voice of a whisper whispered to my ear as if he could not believe it.

Indeed, after a long time, my name, called directly into his mouth, was a surprisingly friendly feeling. I barely held my tears and raised my head.

And now I faced Eugene, who became an adult who was so full of incomparability that I couldn’t even compare to six years ago.

His black-eyed face was full on my face. Emotions that had been squeezed into the air burst out at once, as if I waiting for the moment I saw his face.

I uttered the name of the person I missed so much with a trembling voice.

“Brother Eugene.”
