Taming The Villainesses chapter 141

(EP.141)#1

141 – Pincer #1

Mirna opened her mouth as if telling a very embarrassing story.

“Tae Gospel, I want to apologize to you.”

Saying that, Mirna’s red eyes were moving anxiously around the cafe.

Suddenly, I wondered if Mirna had something to apologize to someone on a regular basis.

Mirna lived as a noblewoman and always reigned in the position of receiving an apology rather than making an apology.

For that reason, for Mirna, the current situation is very awkward and embarrassing, and if there is even a mouse hole, it may be a feeling of wanting to enter.

Then Mirna added a word.

“But, I thought you really did something like that with Professor Stella… ! Because anyone who hears such news suddenly thinks so.”

“… … .”

I just think that’s something that shouldn’t be said in an apology. In other words, those words were like self-excuse for running on the top of the list of words that should not be included in the apology.

A terrible handshake.

So when I frowned, Mirna quickly opened her lips as if she realized her mistake only then.

“Of course, it was all a misunderstanding. It’s out of my doubts… . However, if you give me a chance to apologize, even if the trust has already been broken, somehow-.”

Mirna gibbling something.

I thought it would be good to end this story quickly before she throws herself out of control.

“Miss Mirna.”

“… Why are you calling me?”

Mirna’s gaze looking at me was very unsettling.

Her two eyes can’t meet me directly, and she just wanders around my lips, neck, and shoulders anxiously.

I suddenly said to Mirna, “I don’t think we can maintain a relationship without trust like this. I felt the urge to say, “I’m going to pretend there was no betrothal.”

If so, how will Mirna react? Are you going to slap me in the head with that fan in a furious rage?

It’s a possibility story.

Of course, I’m not stupid enough to say that.

Should I say instead? I put on a serious expression on my face.

“Everyone makes mistakes. I understand.”

“That, right?”

“However, it is difficult to refill water that has been accidentally spilled. I broke my trust with Professor Stella to assert her innocence.”

“… … .”

Mirna didn’t say anything. I added a few words to her.

“For me, the relationship with Mirna is more important than the promise I made with Professor Stella. It was more important to prove my innocence to Mirna.”

“Yeah, that’s right.”

Mirna looked somewhat happy. But even for a moment, Mirna’s expression quickly darkened at my next words.

“You will have to humiliately get down on your knees and kiss your shoes.”

“that… .”

“If we are going to get married someday, I think Mirna-sama knows that now is the most important time for mutual trust.”

“… … .”

Mirna didn’t say anything and just bit her lower lip slightly and let it go. I put off what I did wrong, and I am the one who takes the initiative.

This one-sided relationship is even strange.

I added a word with a firm voice to my ex-Kim.

“It is important to trust each other.”

Then Mirna reluctantly replied, “I know,” in a crawling voice. If she was a pious fanatic, she would accept the word ‘faith’ more firmly than others.

Faith is built on faith.

To believe that God did it. believing that it will be. It is only when such belief is firmly laid on the basic foundation that faith can be established.

Therefore, for the Gwangyeom Christians, faith was considered the most basic and most important virtue.

trusting each other.

If you are betrothed to each other, even more so, you need to have trust in each other.

Mirna must have felt guilty in many ways for breaking the basics, doubting me and pushing me to a corner, making me rebuked by Professor Stella.

With this in mind, I decided to extend a hand of forgiveness to Mirna.

“Of course I am at fault.”

“Tao Gospel, are you saying it’s your fault too?”

Mirna asked as if she didn’t understand, so I brought out the words I had loaded with one shot.

“The reason Mirna-sama couldn’t trust me is probably because I didn’t show trustworthy behavior. In the future, we will be more careful about our behavior.”

Would this be a sufficient sign of reconciliation?

So, taking a peek at Mirna, it seemed that she had not yet resolved the situation, with her face flushed with various emotions.

Shall I release some more anger?

“Still, I didn’t know that Mirna-sama would listen to me.”

I said it in a very surprising way. Mirna also bites the bait on him.

“Am I?”

“In front of Professor Stella, you protested this and that for me.”

“That’s because Professor Stella’s audacity was rude. To break into a room on your own first and yell at others rather loudly. That’s why elves are… .”

Mirna bit her tongue. There seems to be a lot to be said about the elves.

I purposely scratched the bridge of my nose, as if smirking.

“But it is true that I broke my promise. It’s a shame that you lost your credibility with Professor Stella. Maybe good?”

At my words, Mirna let out a small sigh, “Who-.”

“It happened because of my misunderstanding and inadequacy. Being responsible for that would be your duty as a member of the Draco family. Let me help Professor Stella.”

“If you could help, in what way? Will you help me with my research on writing my thesis?”

“Anyway. I think it would be good to take this opportunity to owe Stella Belhawk… .”

Right.

Mirna also seemed to plan to manage this situation on her own and build a bridge with the Belhawk family. It is quite wise to find a breakthrough in a crisis and turn it into an opportunity.

Mirna spoke again.

“Teo Gospel, I’m sorry I misunderstood you.”

It was an apology that felt sincere in the calmer voice than before.

Shrek.

“Then, could you please sit over here?”

I tapped the seat next to the sofa I was sitting on with my hand. Then Mirna raises her hair upright as if surprised.

“Who, what are you going to do when someone sees you?”

“Who sees? We’re the only ones here on the second floor-.”

I pointed my finger at the folding screens hanging around our seats.

“It’s all covered up like this.”

“but… .”

“Then shall I go there?”

I got up and sat down next to Mirna. The body scent emanating from Mirna sitting right next to her is quite refreshing.

It smells like apple mint.

Is it the scent of shampoo or is it a special perfume?

Anyway, that wasn’t the point now.

It’s important that Mirna, who until now was helpless with her apologetics and indifference towards me, is now restless for other reasons.

“Mr. Mirna, may I hold your hand?”

“… … .”

Mirna didn’t say anything. Then, with a sense of reluctance, he nodded his head slightly.

It was a very small nod, but to my sensitive half-elf sense it felt like a very large gesture of permission.

Shh.

I sat facing the same direction as Mirna and gently held hands.

Mirna’s hands were slender, soft, warm, and soft – like a work of art made by putting together a lot of pleasant elements.

Parr.

I could feel Mirna’s body trembling a little from the clasped hands. It would be nice if we could talk to each other, but I don’t know if it feels that way because we don’t talk to each other.

-Yesterday the professor-.

– What do you like to do while on vacation?

Because of that stillness, even the stories from the first floor of the cafe resonate so loudly that it feels like it’s loud.

Indian summer. A secret room with a folding screen in the cafe on the 2nd floor, where the sun shines in. Two men and women holding each other’s hands. Subtle warmth and fragrance.

Situation like a drowsy yawn.

slurr.

I’m starting to feel sleepy because I couldn’t sleep well because I went through a lot of things yesterday morning. I said, pushing my sleep away.

“Sitting like this reminds me of that time.”

“… … !”

Then, Mirna felt a terrified look. He must have remembered when the event was talking about.

In fact, Mirna seemed to deliberately avoid mentioning that day since the day she was locked up in a secret room. I was the first to take it out, so I was very embarrassed.

Mirna looked around and frowned at me.

“You said that that day was a secret between the two of you, right? I bet you didn’t tell anyone, did you?”

I’ve already told Elgar.

But Mirna doesn’t know that. I don’t even know what kind of relationship I have with Elgar.

If I had known, it would have been Mirna and Elgar sitting at the table today, not Mirna and Professor Stella. My body would have been cut in half.

I just pretended not to know anything.

“I didn’t tell anyone. And, there are only the two of us here.”

“after-.”

Mirna seemed reassured that I had not divulged a secret to anyone.

If the fact that Mirna Draco and Mirna Draco had a relationship with a man before they even got married spreads, it is the end of the pious Draco family in many ways, so I understand.

Then, as if thinking of something, Mirna narrowed her brow.

“Are you really sure you didn’t tell anyone?”

“Are you doubting me again? Did I apologize like that before?”

“No, not that.”

Mirna was startled by my words. And then he mumbles to me like an excuse.

“Looking these days, it’s strange for Lioness Youngae to keep talking about premarital chastity in front of me. Not even a devout believer. I wondered if you were talking… .”

Elgar guy. see you later

I shook my head, pretending not to know anything, burning my revenge on Elgar.

“I didn’t say anything.”

“Really? Lady Lioness, you didn’t even tell the Spider Queen, right? Is it true that I didn’t say anything in the sacrament of confession in the Sunday worship service?”

“… Really. If you don’t believe me again, I don’t have anything more to say to Mirna.”

Shh.

I tried to remove the hand that was holding Mirna. Then Mirna grabbed my hand tightly and wouldn’t let it go.

“Oh, I believe. It’s not misunderstood. I was just curious.”

Mirna feels very embarrassed and gives excuses again. At this point, it goes beyond annoying and looks cute.

Then, within a moment, Mirna withdrew her strength from her body as she lamented her situation.

“I don’t even know why I am doing this. I don’t want to. Tae Oh Gospel, I keep getting obsessed with you.”
