"He had something to do outside the house tonight, so he's out."
"Oh, I see... Ah... That must be his carriage. Where's he going? Maybe he's off to some big, important business meeting or something..."
I muttered, pressing my forehead right up against the window, watching that fancy carriage exit the main gate.
"He's probably going to go piss someone off. Probably House Longpole or the Imperial Palace. He's been super stressed lately."
Ah.
Wow, how touching. (Sarcastic)
Ugh. I let out a long sigh.
"Guess I can't just see him whenever I want anymore..."
Even if he's not all sweet and super affectionate like he used to be.
'It's okay though.'
They say love is invisible, but Dad's love is definitely still here, in a real way.
In me. Right here.
'That's why I've got to protect Dad, no matter what!'
It's the least I can do, right?
Alright.
Motivation, combat power, observation skills: all 100% charged up.
'I made it into the Duke's place, no problem!'
So I've got to work even harder from here on out! Let's go, let's go!
