“Good morning.” (Monica)
“Ah, good morning.” (Harold)
The next morning, I exchanged greetings with Monica, who came in while I was getting dressed.
I mean, could you please stop coming into my room while I’m changing? I managed to avoid an incident by quickly hiding, but if I had made a mistake, I would have been seen in nothing but my underwear. I’m used to it, though.
“By the way. I feel bad for you and Xandra, but I’ll be leaving soon, so could you prepare?” (Harold)
“You’re leaving ‘soon’…?” (Monica)
“Yeah. It was only one night, but I already miss the royal capital.” (Harold)
I desperately tried to convince her that it was purely my selfishness.
Hehe, how’s that for my performance? Cas is definitely captivated by it…… yeah, sorry. Please don’t look at me like that.
“That’s why, please let Xandra know about this…!?” (Harold)
“Really…… you are doing this for someone like me…” (Monica)
Suddenly, Monica leaned her cheek against my back and whispered with a strained voice.
Ah—…… I guess she noticed after all. But…
“I don’t like that way of saying it. ‘For someone like me’? There’s no one in this world who could be a better maid than you.” (Harold)
“Ah…” (Monica)
“Listen. I absolutely will not allow you to belittle yourself. Even if it’s your own words.” (Harold)
I turned around and looked into Monica’s hazel eyes as I spoke.
Despite usually teasing and showing off, why do you look so lacking in confidence now…
“That’s right. You are the only maid who has served me all this time. Just as Haru-sama says, I won’t allow you to deny yourself.” (Alexandra)
“That’s right! Monica gives me lots of delicious food and is super kind!” (Casparleague)
Even Xandra, who had quietly entered the room, and Cas, who was bouncing on the bed, all denied Monica’s words.
After all, you are my…… no, our ‘precious someone’.
“Now that you understand, let’s get ready quickly! I feel bad for you, Monica, but I want to hurry back!” (Harold)
“Fufu…… Haru-sama’s whims cannot be ignored.” (Alexandra)
“That’s right! …Oh, but since we’re at it, let’s eat something delicious on the way back.” (Harold)
“Yay! I want to eat sashimi again!” (Casparleague)
While saying such things, Xandra, Cas, and I laughed together.
I want to ensure that Monica wouldn’t feel guilt or responsibility about this. This is the best, having a wife and partner who readily accommodates me like this.
“I-it can’t be helped. I’m the only one who can take care of everyone, so I’ll need to have my pay raised as soon as we return to the royal capital.” (Monica)
Monica adjusted her glasses, puffing out her chest playfully.
Tears shimmered lightly in her hazel eyes.
—
“Are you really leaving already!?” (Margo)
“Ah, I have no reason to stay here anymore.” (Harold)
As we loaded our luggage into the carriage, Margo-sama rushed out, her face pale.
Well, it makes sense. Originally, we were supposed to stay for a month, but now we’re saying we’ll leave after just one night. Moreover, Margo-sama knows, right? That they made their lord uncomfortable due to their own mismanagement.
“Well, thank you for your hospitality.” (Harold)
“Ah…” (Margo)
Ignoring Margo-sama, who extended her hand as if to stop us, the carriage headed towards the royal capital…… but first, we needed to grab a bite to eat in a nearby town. After all, we left without having breakfast.
“Well, I’ll miss this sea view, but even so, even though we’ll just be traveling in the carriage, I had fun being able to spend time with everyone like this.” (Harold)
“Fufu…… as long as I’m with Haru-sama, I’m always happy.” (Alexandra)
Saying that, Xandra leaned her cheek against my shoulder.
Yeah, my wife is super cute.
Then…
“…Your Highness Harold, Milady, Cas-san. May I share my boring old story with you?” (Monica)
With an unusually serious expression, Monica looked at us and said that.
“Of course. Tell me about you.” (Harold)
“I’ve only known about you since you started serving me, so I’m happy to hear it.” (Alexandra)
“Yeah, yeah!” (Casparleague)
We nodded back at Monica, eager to hear.
“Well then, please listen. This is the foolish past of Monica Ashton.” (Monica)
Placing her hand on her ample chest, Monica bowed dramatically with a composed expression.
