St. Margaret's School
Looking down from the sky at the huge school building, there were still no students. It was silent under the summer sun. The campus, which was modeled after a French garden, was blooming with all kinds of flowers, a white fountain that looked like melted icicles, a comfortable pavilion, and a lush forest... It was still a vast and quiet place.
A few lost squirrels from the forest crossed the green grass. Ye Yuehuan came to Victoria's bungalow after leaving his independent apartment, but the angry Victoria was not there at all.
He had refreshing black hair and a pair of lonely eyes of the same color. In his hand was a folded parasol with white and pink ruffled edges that did not match his outfit at all. He shouted with a serious expression,
"Hey! Victoria!"
He seemed to be looking for someone as he walked on the small path. The person he was looking for did not seem to be in the gazebo today, on the bench on the grass, or under the comfortable shade of the tree. After a while, Night Moon returned to the same path and said,"
"Hey! Victoria, Victoria!"
He called out the same name, but this time, he searched under the bench and deep in the flower bed, as if he was looking for a lost kitten. He checked them carefully before leaving.
"Where did he go…"
His voice gradually became uneasy.
At the end of summer, in a corner of St. Margaret's Academy where only a few days of vacation remained-
"Hello-Victoria!"
In the evening.
The sunlight weakened, and shadows began to appear on the grass.
The fountain made a comfortable sound, and the birds chirped from time to time.
Ye Yuehuan, who was wearing the same outfit as before, appeared on the small road again. This time, he seemed to have put the parasol somewhere. Instead, he was holding a freshly baked cake in one hand.
"Victoria, is this dessert?”
As he spoke loudly, he shook the cake in his hand left and right.
"This is a freshly baked orange cake. Where did you go? Miss Sophie gave this to me. As long as you have this, you should appear, right? Squeak, squeak, squeak!"
"Ugh…damn it!"
A short, low, hoarse voice came from very close. Hearing Victoria's voice, Night Moon hurriedly put the freshly baked orange cake on the bench. She looked down at the bench and even reached into the hole of the big beech tree.
"Victoria? Where are you?"
"Here, idiot."
It was an extremely displeased and hoarse voice.
Looking around, Ye Yuehuan's face was filled with confusion.”She looked up.
From the lush green leaves, a golden thing hung down, like the slender tail of an incredible ancient creature. Moreover, it was shaking gently as if it was tempting Ye Yuehuan.
Ye Yuehuan tilted her head and tried to pull her golden tail.
"Stop!"
An even more displeased voice sounded. The helpless Ye Yuehuan could only look into the depths of the leaves.
Like a secret flower that bloomed alone, the bright pink ruffled edges and the almost transparent thin lace moaned unhappily deep in the leaves.
"Victoria? A petite and angry young lady…What were you doing in that place?”
"Gulp ~~" The sound of his stomach growling replaced Victoria's response. Ye Yuehuan was a little anxious."
"Are you hungry? So you haven't been in the bungalow, library, candy house, or gazebo since this morning. Could it be that she was on this tree early in the morning because she was angry? I'm not a child…okay…don't be angry…I was wrong. You have to know that you're the one I love the most in this world. Hurry up, there's a sweet, soft, freshly baked cake here.”
Indeed, this world loves you the most…
Victoria's face emerged from the leaves. She was petite and had a porcelain doll-like appearance. Her green eyes had a deep glow, and her moist lips were like cherries. Her rose-colored cheeks…had already lost their color and turned pale.
"What's wrong? Come down. Don't be angry."
"Oh, oh."
Victoria couldn't help but moan.
Ye Yuehuan reached up and noticed that she was standing very high up, so he had no choice but to put his hand down. He looked down from Victoria and stared at the branches and holes of the beech tree. Then, he looked up at Victoria again.
"I think I know, Victoria.”
"Oh…"
"You can't climb down, can you?”
“……”
Victoria lowered her head silently like a wild animal whose pride had been hurt.
Ye Yuehuan lowered his head as much as he could to avoid looking at Victoria, who was blushing shyly in the distance. He said,""I'll go find a ladder! Hide here." Then, he left the scene. Although Night Moon could climb up directly, Victoria, who had been arrogant all this time, would probably fly into a rage out of humiliation. Victoria heaved a sigh of relief when she saw Night Moon leave.
The dry summer wind blew, blowing the green leaves and Victoria's golden hair. It was a quiet and peaceful summer evening…
At this moment, Mr. Cecil and Sophie walked over from the other end of the path, hand in hand. As it was summer vacation, the two of them did not wear work clothes. Instead, they wore a simple white one-piece dress together with cute slippers. Cecil, who had big round glasses and curly brown hair, and Sophie, who had a freckled face and long red hair, leaned together in harmony and chattered non-stop.
Cecil found a delicious cake on the bench and couldn't help poking his friend's hand.
"Sophie, there's cake!"
"Eh? Ah, there really was cake. Aiya, didn't I just roast this? Why are you here?"
So the two of them sat on the bench and ate the cake harmoniously. The beech tree next to them suddenly shook and fell its leaves and branches, and strange animal cries could be heard. However, the two of them did not care at all. They gossiped about their friends in the village and what they had eaten for dinner last night. In short, they talked endlessly and finished the entire cake.
Then Cecil and Sophie stood up as if nothing had happened and left hand in hand.
"It's really delicious."
"Delicious, really delicious."
" Oh right, the dessert from last night's dinner…"
All that was left was the empty bench, the fallen leaves of the beech trees, and the child's suppressed sobbing...
"Victoria!"
After a long while, Ye Yuehuan finally ran back with a ladder in her arms, drenched in sweat. Ignoring her messy clothes, she climbed up the ladder against the beech tree with all her heart. She smiled and reached out her hands to welcome the petite girl hiding in the leaves.
But in the next second, Victoria's nails scratched his face, making him wail,"
"It hurts! Hey! Victoria, I-I'm here to save you. Don't be angry." Calm down…waah! Don't pinch me. Why are you crying? What? What about the cake? It hurts so much!"
The ladder kept shaking. After a silent battle, it finally quieted down. Night Moon Magic gathered pink ruffles and lace... Victoria De Blois held under his armpit and climbed down the ladder with Victoria swaying. His face was full of scars.
"…Bake the cake a little more."
“……”
"Don't catch anyone again. It hurts."
“……”
"Did you hear me, Victoria? If you do something like this again, I'll really be angry.”
"…Humph! You still haven't explained to me what's going on with the three women in your apartment.”
Damn it, I thought Victoria would not notice, but even Julie did. It seemed that he could only fool them.
"Haha…Haha…Let's go down first."
"Humph…"
The two of them finally returned to the ground. Leaving behind Night Moon, who was cleaning up the ladder, Victoria shook the pink ruffles as she ran across the grass and gradually walked away in the direction of the maze flower bed.
"Ah, hey…Where are you going…"
"It's none of your business."
"Ah, Victoria is still angry."
Night Moon murmured, feeling a little lonely, but he could only hold the ladder and slowly walk up the dark school path...
