Jill 27
Jill was lying down on the bed, sandwiched between the twins and Andrea.
Andrea had almost calmed down.
Feeling a gaze on him, Jill turned his head around and saw the twins, their eyes gleaming and sparkling as they stared at him.
They opened their mouths and the questions came out in rapid fire: “Is Father together with Liliush?”, “You’ll get married?”, “We’ll be family?”. By the time he noticed it, both of his arms had already been seized.
Even if he explained to them everything, they probably wouldn’t understand all of it.
With that in mind, he told them that Lilius had his own important person.
Each of his three sons had their own reaction when hearing that.
Cyril felt sorry for Lilius if he had to separate from his important person, but he also felt sorry for Jill who couldn’t get together with Lilius whom he liked a lot. “I want everyone to be happy,” was what he said.
With a blank expression, Guy called him a “loser”. It seemed Seth had taught him that “people who gave up and ran away without even trying” was a loser. Needless to say, Guy’s words deeply gouged at Jill’s heart.
Andrea didn’t say anything at all. However, those eyes were mired in suspicion, doubting whether what he said was the real reason. The lack of trust made yet another gouge in Jill’s heart.
That night, they talked and talked, until the brilliant light of dawn spread in the sky.
They discussed various things that they hadn’t talked about before.
From the children’s treasures and the games they were engrossed in right now, to their dreams for the future.
They also learned about the past story of their father, Jill.
When Jill was asked what his dream when he was young was, ripples of unrest rose in the depths of his heart.

Back when he was very young.

The words Jill’s sons conveyed to him before they fell asleep:
—No matter what happens, we’re on Father’s side.
Before sleep caught them, these children of his conveyed that much. Jill gave a kiss on each child’s forehead.

Since that day, a few days passed by without him doing anything in particular.
Soon, the vacation would be over.
When that time came, Jill had to return to the capital, even if he was the only going back.
Until the problem was solved, he would likely have to stay separated from the kids.
Jill had been completely pushing it off before, but now he was worrying about this. Watching Jill like this, Seth was laughing gloatingly.
—As if saying, “Yeah, the solution is what you’ve been agonizing and hesitating over.”
On this day too, Jill was looking over the documents when a servant entered the room to ask something.
“What’s wrong?”
“It’s about Guy-sama.”
According to the servant, Guy’s condition was off.
The servant told him that Guy hadn’t been well since last night, but now it had completely worsened, as he was now lying in his bed without even touching his meals.
Although the servant had tried to get him to tell where he was hurt, Guy wouldn’t give an answer.
Just in case, the servant wanted to call a healer.
“I understand. I’ll arrange it.”
“That would be great.”
Immediately, Jill went to Guy’s side together with the servant.
Looking at the way Guy was wrapped up in his futon, he certainly looked sick.
When peering in to check Guy’s complexion, Jill noticed something out of place.
The right side of his cheek was a little bit swollen.
“Could it be?”
“—Gyaah!”
“……Seriously. Why did you hold it in to this point?”
Just as he had thought.
When he poked Guy’s right cheek lightly, Guy gave out a miserable scream.
Jill said to the servant who was anxiously staring at them:
“It should be a cavity.”
“Really?”
“Yes, it’s a cavity. Look, the right side is a little swollen, isn’t it? I’ll get a healer to come. He’s an old acquaintance. If it’s that person, even Guy would probably obediently listen to him.”
The one who the sighing Jill sent a letter to was Lilius.
The special letter made with magic reached the healer institution in an instant.
Until Lilius came, he had to do something about this futon caterpillar.
Guy, who had a cavity, looked up at Jill resentfully, taking out his anger on Jill.
“Did you not brush your teeth properly before you went to bed? I’ve decided, sweets will be banned for the time being.”
“~~ggh!”
At Jill’s ruthless verdict, Guy’s expressionless face became even darker.
It was adorable how easy it was to see his low mood.
Guy punched him repeatedly. Although he was full of complaints, it seemed the pain made him unable to open his mouth, which made him even more sullen.
As Jill cast healing magic, from the side, a wry smile could be seen floating on his lips.
