"... Yua, are you okay?

"Huh?"

"Because Yua cared about the orphanage kids, didn't she? Yet I'm worried about Yua being set up like that..."

When I said that, tears flowed from Yua's eyes, who seemed a little sad.

"Huh? Huh?

I noticed that Youre wiped tears, but whether he wiped them or not, there were tears flowing.

"Oh, I'm sorry, suddenly, this, then, Lena, honey, but I'm in trouble..."

And I held Yua to my chest wiping tears as I said so.

"Not that I can do anything, but you don't have to, do you?

I'll stroke Yua's head as I say. Then the emotion Yua had endured when she said, "Oh, I'm sorry," overflowed all at once. Yua's whimpering was echoing in the room.

Then Yua cried for a while, but over time she regained some calm and I couldn't hear Yua whimpering.

"... mostly settled, huh?

"Ugh, yeah. …, that, there, is"

"You don't have to worry about it. The…. You think it's harder not to cry when you've been rejected by the kids Yua cared about?

That being said, Yua took a few deep breaths before speaking out.

"Maybe so, because some parts of me cared too much about the Onomas and the money and I had a pretty small chance to play with the orphanage kids... Besides, I didn't even bother to mention my left arm..."

"... I don't think so, do you?

"What makes you think that?

"Maybe, but the orphanage kids I'm in right now were not used to seeing major injuries or anything, and they were avoided? Because I think so?

Saying so, Youre had a slightly surprised look with his face up.

"... that might be a little?

and gave a slight expression that the orphanage kids might not know why they avoided it. Well, I'm a little dirty on my face and nose with tears because I was crying until just now... and take out something to wipe with that in mind.

"I'll wipe your face a little, okay?

"Huh?......!?

Yua, she looked a little strange, but after a while, she seemed to remember crying until earlier, turning her face bright red and leaning right down.

"I'll wipe it for you, so put your face up?

When I say that, I raise my fearful face, so I smile and start wiping Yua's face. And then I felt like Yua's face was even more red, but is it because of you? I was wiping Yua's face clean as I thought.
