I stood in front of the mirror, naked and clutching the nightgown that Reid had given me the day before.
She gave me a negligee to wear as a nightgown. I could tell right away from her expression that she had no ulterior motives.
I don't buy much fashionable stuff or things for myself.
One reason is that running Suzuya was difficult.
Above all, I wanted to make sure that Reid was able to live comfortably.
Perhaps knowing this, she bought me some pajamas.
Even though you can see that it's not cheap, they say it was cheap.
I bought it at Flower Mist, so it's not cheap.
"...What a cruel person."
Then, I heard from a familiar adventurer that the son of the Dwaf Trading Company had been captured.
I also heard at that time that Erica and Reid were there.
He also said that he had changed his supplier to Erika.
I was worried at first, but the ingredients and seasonings that arrived were reliable.
The problem was solved before I knew it.
Suddenly, I look in the mirror.
There I was, with a woman's face.
He said he would hold me.
He decided to prepare himself...
I'd rather steal something than have it stolen from me...
...When you love someone, you hug them because you love them.
Place your hand on your stomach.
Until recently, I had never felt frustrated.
Of course, I have been wooed and confessed my feelings to.
It was hard to get through each day, but above all else, I was thinking about Reid first.
But recently.
Ever since Reid said he'd hold me, I've been doing it alone a lot.
Contrary to how I feel, my body is calling for a raid.
If he's determined.
As a mother... as someone who loves him, I too must make up my mind.
For him, who must have done many things for himself and taken risks.
Even though my heart was beating so hard it felt like it was going to burst, the person I saw in the mirror had a completely woman's face.
She puts on a negligee, checks herself in the mirror, and smiles awkwardly.
It feels like it's the first night together.
It's not a mistake, but I never thought I'd have to go through it again at 37 years old...
"...Mother...today is the end."
I said to myself in the mirror and left the room to go to Reid.
Searching for words, feeling anxious.
With high hopes.
