Chapter 166

Encounter

After the audience with Mr . Wang, I left the mansion quickly .

While I was walking down the road from the mansion to the place where the carriage stopped, suddenly I saw a garden .

. . . . . . beautiful, and .

I was usually busy with my father's work, but I occasionally tried to take a rest in my free time in these type of gardens .

That was my sister's recommendation .

It is said that seeing green reassures the mind, and if you look far away, your eyes rest .

Although I do not know whether it is true or not, my older sister was doing that, so I thought it was true and began to try it too .

When I am looking at the beautifully arranged garden, it is noticeable that one woman is sitting in the distance .

" . . . hello, are you okay?"

As she sits in the ground, I get worried that her physical condition is bad or something happened that is why she is in the floor and I try to get close to her .

"So . . . ! Sorry"

Perhaps she has not noticed me . . . she was surprised to hear a voice and reacted with a small cry .

Her long and beautiful blond hair shakes with the wind as she turns around .

"I'm only thinking a bit . . . . . . . "

She is afraid of me and gently try to hid her light green eyes .

"I am sorry to disturb you . . . the reason why I talked to you while you were deep in thoughts, is that I thought your condition was bad or something happened to you as you were sitting on the ground . . . . . . . "

"No . . . . . . I am only imitating a technique I saw recently to relax . . . . When I got stuck with an idea, I feel like I can relax and clear my mind better if I look at the garden, so . . . . . . "

"Ah……"

I remember my older sister and laugh .

On the other hand, the woman seemed uncomfortable .

Does she think she imperfectly imitated it, so she is being laughed at? .

"My sister was saying the same thing as you, remembering that I laughed . . . . Her mind gets confused after many ideas and that's why she says she can think of things from a new perspective if she looks at the garden . I am also encouraged to try that by my sister so I try to do it as much as possible when time is available . "

"That's right . . . . Once you get stuck with ideas, you feel the same as if you got into a labyrinth, and you start to think ideas that go nowhere, as if you are running in circles, but mostly, if I go to the garden and try thinking calmly in my mind I can see the exit, it's simple, is not it? "

Suddenly being told that vigorously by her, I swallowed back what I was going to say .

She was ashamed when she noticed and murmured "Oh . . . I did not want to . . . ", I smiled at that sentence and she smiled again at me .

"Well, I felt that it was better to go to the garden even a little time, rather than taking a break inside, in some cases it's more efficient seen the green scenery in the garden . "

"Well, I am sorry to say that, I am Letty, I was rude . . but you are . . . "

"My name is Bern . . . can I call you by that name afterwards?"

"…… . Likewise"

Letty said so, with a soft smile .

"Is Mr . Bern talking with her big sister often?"

"why?"

"I am interested, because I have an older brother, but I don't talk much to my brother because he is often in other places . . . "

"I think that what I can say you will not be very helpful, for some time before I entered the academy, I did not speak much with my sister . . . and while at the academy . . . at the end I gave my older sister a deep wound that will last for the rest of her life . "

" . . . Are you regretting?"

"I can not say lightly that I regret it, because I can not compensate merely by regretting the past, there is no choice but to change my way of life . . . to refrain from hurting her again . . . Someday, I will be able to help my sister so I am thinking that I want to grow fast so I can help her when she needs it . . . and not hurt her anymore . . . "

I am worried that my sister thinks I'm too terrible to be able to help . . . with a bitter smile I muttered .

"Oh Dear……"

"I talked only about me . . . . . . How about you Letty, how is your relation brother and sister?"

"It's very good, just . . . . . . Well, it might be the same as you . "

"What does that mean . . . . . . "

"Even though I have always kept trying to help him and I am struggling to grow fast, because I want to help my older brother . . . . . . My older brother will do anything alone . . . so much he doesn't want to depend on me . . that it's useless for me to try to help . . . . "

"I see……"

"I wanted to be born as a man . . . so I could walk side by side with my older brother,"

Letty stands up from the ground .

While holding herself as if to ascertain her own existence .

That figure was full of thoughts and sadness . . . I understood that is why I said it .

" . . . . . . Up until now I was skeptical about if women can work the same way as men . Yes, I may not have even thought about it, even doubt if it's possible, but because all the work is done by only one woman alone in my family's territory I do not think so . "

the wind blew softly and calm . . .

The petals of the flowers blooming in the garden dance in the sky with the wind blowing .

I don't if it was because of what has been said, or as a way of answering my statements, she raised her face .

Her glowing golden hair dances swayed by the wind .

I continued talking . . because I knew she needed it . . .

"However, this was something that made me thought my sister's appearance . What is necessary for fulfilling your duties is the ability you yourself have and that alone . . Before that, sex is a trivial problem . My older sister is a woman and because of that she has a woman's point of view, she is doing so amazing things that I have never seen before . That also made me think that half of this country are women, those who don't incorporate the unique opinion of a woman are distorted . So, I am . . . part of those who don't care about a person sexuality, but thinks that their power depends alone on the strength and the will of the person himself or herself . If you want to become power, you should find a way for yourself "

She rounded her eyes as if surprised for a moment . . . and then she laughed .

She seems to be very happy .

At the same time, she seems me as if she wants to say that she found something interesting .

"Well . . . others would think that woman was bearish if you say that she supported everything on her own . "

She murmured something, but I could not hear it unfortunately .

She did have strangely a fresh smile that was not in her face before when I encountered her in the garden .

"I heard a very good story, I would like to see you by all means again if there are opportunities . "

"Please lets meet again, it was a pleasure to talk with you . "

"When you come back to the Imperial Palace, please let me know by all means because I am working here regularly, so if you let me tell by Ruti, I will be informed soon"

"Yeah, I will"

Listening to the affirmative words, Letty left the spot .

I went back to my home after seeing her back .
