“You could tell so well with just two letters.”
“It was such a lovely letter that I could read it over and over if I had time.”
“…I’m sure that letter wasn’t to be read that way.”
“No, it is. After reading the letter you gave to me, I was very nervous about what kind of marriage we could have.”
…Ah, what a strange fellow.
That’s what she thought about her husband.
In the first letter, it was just unreasonable demands. The second was like a letter of execution.
“Hermina-sama was terrible. I want to take care of you but ended up being taken care of me.”
“Because you’re angry about the other day.”
“I’m not angry.”
“You’re lying! You’re driving me like a snake!”
“A snake?”
“Yes!”
On the surface he seemed to be smiling and talking peacefully, but looking carefully, it wasn’t reaching his eyes.
“If that’s the case, I’ll apologize. I’m sorry.”
“No, even if you apologize…”
It was just a word, of course.
She didn’t know what her husband was thinking at all.
“I thought it was wrong for me to keep silent about the letter. I couldn’t say something until now.”
“I see. Even if we’re a married couple, you don’t have to share everything. I’ll leave that up to you.”
“Is that fine?”
“Yes, but please cover it up well.”
“Hai.”
At this moment, she noticed. You shouldn’t hide anything from your husband.
He was a person with good intuition. Soon after he realized it, it would be troublesome afterward, like today.
“… I’m really sorry.”
“Don’t worry about it.”
Even if he didn’t mind, she couldn’t imagine that her husband was feeling. It was a great concern.
Originally, it was unforgivable to write to a man other than your husband secretly.
She ought to say that early, so she had nothing to be ashamed of.
She regretted that she became a bad wife.
At the same time, she asked him to have something from her husband.
“If there’s anything wrong in the future, could you point it out?”
Her husband replied with a smile, “Of course.”
This solved the problem! Or so she thought but her husband said, “Then—right away. There seemed to be a right way to correct your faults.”
“What is it?”
She couldn’t imagine what was popping out of his head.
She couldn’t help but hold up.
Her husband smiled sweetly and said something surprising.
“Hermina-sama, please try to like me.”
“Ha?
What are you talking about?
She thought deep inside.
