“You shouldn’t get hurt either.
Listen to your mom, wash up, and go out…”

“Young Master Ja~de.”

For a moment, as the shadows fell, Ejed flinched.
He raised his gaze and smiled awkwardly.

“…I’m sorry, Carla.”

“You guys! Huh! Did mom tell you to play tag like this here, huh?”

“Aww!”

“Uhhhhhh!”

The children burst into tears as Carla snapped fiercely.
In the meantime, Sev was surprised and slipped into Ejed’s pocket.

Ejed, who caused the mess, tried to appease his children.

In the meantime, when the children looked at Carla, he felt the need to organize the situation.

“Carla, it was my fault.
I’m sorry.
Because I wanted to play tag with the kids.”

“Huh, is that really true?”

“Yeah.
I’ll make sure this never happens in the future.”

“…Haa.
It’s okay.
I’m sorry that I got angry too, Young Master.
And you guys!

“Heh, uh, sorry, Mom.”

“I’m sorry.”

“Cry for what you did.
Come with me!”

Severely scolded, Carla took the children’s hands and disappeared.

Ejed, who was left alone, stared blankly at the three of them.
It happened so quickly that he was restless and distracted.

He muttered in a voice full of sincerity.

“Raising children is… is not normal.”

“Pft.”

Ejed froze, startled by the sound of laughter from somewhere.
Annie, who was watching from behind, staggered over and stroked his hair.

“That’s right.
It’s not normal.”

‘Do you hear everything? You’ll think I’m weird…’

Why did he only show Annie his pathetic side?

As Ejed’s shoulders sag, Annie said with a smirk.

“Now, let’s go get ready.”

***

The sky was blue, as if covered by blue paint.
The endless meadows below were full of sheep.

Annie, who hid from the sun with the shade of a tree, scribbled something about it in her notebook.

Then, she heard the brother and sister’s whining.
The children’s faces were full of happiness as if they had never cried.

“Mom, it’s a sheep! Sheep!”

“Sheep, sheep.”

“Yeah, sheep.
My babies, would you like to feed the sheep with hay?”

“Yes!”

“I’ll do it too!”

Carla was able to come to the sheep ranch with her children today thanks to Annie’s care.

Carla took the two children by the hand and approached the owner of the sheep ranch.
Carla, who received three baskets of hay from the owner, shouted at Annie.

“My Lady! Young Master Jade! Come quickly!”

Annie shook her head with a smile.

“I’m fine.
Young Master Jade, would you like to go and feed?”

Ejed, who was sitting next to Annie, shook his head, saying it was okay.
Carla called him several times, but he quietly looked up at Annie.

Perhaps because of the strong wind, she looked as free as the free-moving hair and hem.

“Do you like me better than sheep?”

At Annie’s mischievous pranks, Ejed froze.
Still, the gentle hand stroking his hair was something he got used to.

“Here, are you really okay?”

As he nodded, Annie continued her words with a refreshed face.

“I wanted to introduce it to the books I’m writing.
I also came here when I was young and made a lot of good memories.”

The purple eyes were engulfed in memories.

Competing with David to feed the sheep with hay or eat a delicious snack.

Even if it wasn’t for that, she was a happy place to just sit still on the hill.

Cozy peace seemed to be scattered everywhere.

Annie, who had been writing to some extent, tried to sit on the floor.
Then Ejed hurriedly took off his coat and laid it on the floor.

“…You want me to sit down?”

“Yeah.
Sit down, Annie.”

Annie smiled awkwardly and sat down.
Once she had accepted the favor, she had a strange feeling.

‘Hey… You already have this kind of manners.
He might become a great playboy.’

Compared to Ejed, the attitude towards women was different.
On the contrary, it seemed like that part had to be learned.

‘Well.
His Majesty must be well now.’

Annie, who had recalled Ejed without realizing it, wrote a note.
After that, a few days passed, but there was no correspondence with Ejed.

It was a natural result, but somehow it didn’t feel very pleasant.

Annie pulled the weeds with her hands for nothing.

“Annie.
Where are you uncomfortable? You have a bad complexion.”

His cheek-tickling eyes are as sweet as honey.
The child who was a little hard on himself at first is now quite good at it.

‘What a meticulousness.’

Annie wanted to shout 100 out of 100.

“I’m fine.
It’s just a little bit, though some things bother me.”

“…What’s going on?”

Her concern was buried in the calm voice.
Annie thought he was a very mature child.

Didn’t she bring up funny stories about how difficult it was to raise children before?

Carla’s children were just like their peers.

“Annie?”

When his concerns did not go away, Annie broke the silence with her solemn voice.

“It’s because of His Majesty.”
