151 – Reunion
I couldn’t sleep no matter how hard I tried, so I finally found something to pass the time with the lights on.
Is the reason why you can’t sleep because of the anticipation for tomorrow?
I thought that tomorrow would be the day I would meet the members I hadn’t seen in two months, so I was in a good mood and smiling since the morning, but my mischievous second brother, Louise, kept teasing me.
During vacation, I told my family a lot about Ross.
Contrary to my concerns, my parents thought of Ross positively.
Perhaps the gratitude for healing her daughter’s body was greater than the difference in social status.
One night, my father called me and said,
‘My family is not so weak that an arranged marriage is necessary. I want you to be happy for a long time with the person you want.’
My father’s voice was as low and heavy as always, but full of warmth towards me.
However, my father continued to convince me that no matter how nice Ross was, in the end, the male beast was dangerous.
I couldn’t help but keep my mouth shut because of how beastly Ross was, an inexplicable shame to his family.
It’s a secret that only I need to know that it often appears even in my dreams.
I took out Ross’s letter from the small storage box on the desk.
Like I said I wanted to grow diligently during vacation, maybe it was because I had a busy day. Ross did not reply to every letter.
Partly it’s because I spent a lot of time at home boringly, so I sent a lot of letters.
I was worried that I might be in the way of Ross, so I asked the letter. Thank you for telling me that Ross misses you every time he reads your letter and gives you strength.
Louie Belle, the third older brother, angrily said, ‘Don’t you dare to reply to the letter from your lovely sister?’, And promised to go to the academy to receive an answer directly. I could barely dry it by holding on.
I always appreciate how everyone thinks of me, but sometimes I think it’s too much.
Even at breakfast today, Louisville, my older brother, insisted on taking me directly to Bald Snow Mountain.
I think I was thinking of meeting Ross in person, whom I had only heard about. Let’s politely decline Louisville’s older brother, who continues to be stubborn despite several rejections, with her respectful words.
The quick-witted Louisville brother kept her mouth shut. But she was a little uneasy that her older brother Louis Belle, who was eating potatoes next to her, glared at her without saying a word.
I read the letter from Ross. It’s not a neat handwriting, but it’s a letter that feels like hard work.
Ross, writing about his love for me, his longing for me, and his plans for a future date, always ends his letters with these words.
– Ross who loves everything about you.
I always had something in my hand to hide my uncomfortable left hand. But after falling in love with Ross, I didn’t. Because the need for that is gone.
The left hand, which always held something like a book and a tumbler, was now always with Ross’s warm, soft hand.
You don’t know how happy and grateful I am to walk down the street holding hands like an ordinary couple. Until I met Ross, I was worried that a normal relationship would be impossible.
But Ross tells me that he loves all of my flaws. Every time that happens, I wonder how much my heart beats and I worry that Ross won’t be able to hear my heartbeat.
I want to give back to Ross as much as I have received, but Ross says he should give back more and he tries to take care of me.
For some reason, Ross sometimes acts like someone who has committed a great sin against me.
I feel a little anxious every time that happens, but every time Ross hugs me, my anxiety disappears in an instant. I’m afraid I’ll miss Ross, so I hug him tightly.
Moonlight streams into the room through the uncurtained windows. As I organize the letters, I think of the members of the Messiah Club.
Isn’t Aria, who is lively and has a good appetite, losing sleep with anticipation like me? She smiles as she thinks of Aria, who must be thinking about how to entertain us who came to play at Bald Snowy Mountain.
The prankster Kane pretending to be a nuisance may have prepared another prank for tomorrow’s trip. She is happy that she will be able to see Aria and Kane chatting after a long time.
I think Lakar, who silently does his job, is sleeping peacefully. If it’s La Carre, I’m sure he’ll keep his sleeping hours strictly as scheduled.
Ross, a smirking lover, might be tossing and turning like me. Because we are lovers with a lot in common.
Ross is like the most thoughtful person I know. He sometimes surprises me with his unexpected thoughts.
But sometimes I worry that I’m thinking too much and worrying that I don’t have to.
I hope you can sleep comfortably tonight without any worries.
Looking at the moon through the window, I think of the members.
I prayed that we would be able to meet tomorrow brightly and without any worries.
***
Two months have passed. However, summer vacation was not completely over. Because it’s the weekend.
During the summer vacation, I felt that I had improved a lot.
After returning from the Perlcus family, I spent the rest of the month focusing on breathing and physical training.
There was even a time when he trained wearing armor and was unable to reply to Luna’s letter due to the penalty of continuing the battle.
The days of vomiting blood and falling asleep at night were repeated, but I enjoyed it purely.
After entering the academy, I did not neglect training every day, but it was the first time I could feel the growth like now, so I had no choice but to have fun.
Thanks to the body that was extremely trained with intangible breathing, it was possible to reach the second half of the ordeal, which was unable to advance due to lack of stamina.
Unless I have two bodies, I honestly thought it would be difficult to overcome.
Still, there was another harvest. Estelle, who often showed her face during vacation, looked at me and said, ‘I can still appeal to her girlfriend’, but my confidence soared.
I came to my senses again at the cold evaluation of ‘the style that focuses on building muscles because of poor looks?’.
But today was the day I met Luna for the first time in two months. In particular, I got my hair done at a hair salon in the capital city and bought a nice coat and clothes with temperature control artifacts engraved on it with the money I received from Estelle and Bella.
It’s September, so the summer spirit is dampened, but it’s not the weather to wear a coat yet. However, Bald Snow Mountain is in the north of the continent, so it was always winter regardless of the season, so it didn’t matter.
I got up early in the morning and arrived at Bold Station through the portal. While drinking coffee on the second-floor cafe terrace inside the station, I watched the people arriving through the portal.
The reason I do this is simple. Because I thought to surprise Luna. In fact, she had a strong desire to see her Luna as soon as possible, but it was a reason she was ashamed to say.
Luna doesn’t know what I’m waiting for. Since the time she promised to meet was lunchtime, Luna, who values appointments on time, will arrive earlier than the appointment time.
With that in mind, I arrived at the station a few hours early and was waiting for Luna.
There were so many people at the station. Most of the stations were full of department stores and restaurants. Because there was no merchant who would leave the wealthy travelers coming through the portal. Think of it as a shopping mall of some sort.
But I am confident that even if there are many people, I can find Luna. Her Luna’s gait was an inherent habit that could not be confused with anyone else’s.
As a lover, I can tell. Yes, like that cute duck….
She almost spilled her coffee. I guess I wasn’t the only one who changed during summer vacation. My heart was beating like crazy. She was Luna who became more lovable and beautiful while she couldn’t see her. She looks from a distance, but she seems a bit taller too.
I hurriedly left the cafe and went down the stairs. Luna, who arrived much earlier than the scheduled time, was looking at a nearby jewelry store, as if she had been planning to visit the station from the beginning.
I hid her body for a while and observed Luna like that. Luna’s appearance as she curiously opened her small lips and looked at her things was so cute.
Her heart thumps and boasts a presence, and her palms are damp with sweat as if she is nervous. She couldn’t take her eyes off Luna even for a second.
I know why. I fell for her Luna again.
I couldn’t stand it any longer and the moment I tried to approach her Luna, I saw a strange guy in my eyes.
Just like me from a while ago, he was hiding behind the goods in the shop next to her, looking at Luna and smiling broadly as if he was cute.
Realizing that I was glaring at him, he turned his head to look at me. Eyes tangled in the air.
A silent fight.
But the winner of this fight has no choice but to be me.
I twisted the corner of my mouth at him and approached Luna. She looked at something like a bracelet, but she didn’t look away until I was standing right next to her.
Let’s gently tap Luna’s shoulder so as not to be surprised by her careful touch. Luna turned her head.
I met eyes with bright blue eyes like emeralds. Luna didn’t say anything, even if she was in shock for a moment, she just stared at me with her mouth slightly open.
“It’s been a while, Luna.”
Before I could finish my words, Luna’s eyes filled with tears.
“Lo, Ross… !”
I felt a deep sense of happiness at Luna’s act of her hugging me, almost throwing her body away. It was the warmth and scent of Luna that I had longed for. I wanted to have a reunion kiss right away, but I held back because there were children around me.
I don’t think it will end with just a kiss.
I remember stroking Luna’s concave back hair and smiling her winner’s smile at her rival, who glared at me with her shocked expression.
This is mine.
