My Childhood Friends Who I Thought Abandoned Me Are Obsessed With Me

27. Could you hug me one last time?

Chapter 27. Could you give me one last hug?

Tayl woke up in the morning and felt that the monastery was very noisy.

‘Ah. It’s today.’

Today is the day the war finally ended.

The period that could be long if it was long and short if it was short is now over.

‘I’ll go and help the abbot.’

Because I’m probably very busy today.

Since Eugene had already left, Tail hurried.

Let’s finish the preparations and open the door.

“Huh?”

He could come across a girl standing in front of the door with a nervous expression on her face.

“… Te, Tail.”

Brilliant blonde hair and sapphire blue eyes.

Her fair skin looks pale along today, she was Chloe.

“Chloe.”

As her name came out of Tail’s mouth, Chloe’s eyes slowly began to fill with water.

“Tail….”

She bit her lip to hold back her tears.

Then he spoke slowly.

“The news of victory went off.”

The Empire has won.

It was what she wanted so much.

At first, I couldn’t sleep because of the anxiety that it might turn out like this.

Strangely, however, Chloe’s expression did not look happy at all.

“Our empire…. The Belenus Empire has won.”

Her voice trembled endlessly.

Seeing her like that, Tail tried to hide her bitter feelings and said.

“Congratulations. Now you can go back to your original seat.”

Chloe’s expression became subtle.

Somehow, I felt very sad and upset.

“That…. Is that all?”

Chloe’s face hardened as she spoke in her sharp voice.

“Yes?”

Tails panicked, and Chloe nervously bit her thumb nail.

“… No. Nothing.”

She looked very upset.

She didn’t even know what to do with herself.

“I won.”

Her mouth moved slowly.

From noble mtl dot com.

“Our empire is completely safe now. I should be happy, but why… I am.”

She clenched her teeth at her rising emotion.

However, despite her efforts, tears eventually fell from her eyes.

“Why am I so sad.”

Tears rolled down her cheeks.

Even in that situation, Chloe’s eyes contained her tail.

As if I would never forget.

Tale couldn’t say anything.

Chloe then rubbed her eyes and she smiled broadly.

The way she tried to smile made me feel sorrowful and pitiful.

“I’ll probably leave tomorrow or so.”

Tomorrow.

It was probably the conclusion that the imperial castle could no longer be emptied.

Chloe said with a nervous expression.

“Tail. I will write you a letter.”

Tail nodded her head in response.

“I will also write a letter.”

Chloe then hesitated for a moment before continuing her words.

“For the last time. Can you give me a hug just once?”

A commoner hugs a princess?

If the outside world knew this, there would be an uproar.

‘Then I’ll probably get the death penalty.’

For he dared to come into contact with the precious and noble princess.

So, normally, I would have refused, but the word last stuck in my heart.

.

‘Yes. It’s the last one.’

Five years from now, she went to the academy and met a cool male protagonist and became a popular girl.

Her memories of her commoners, not even extras like her own, will fade.

Thinking so, Tail nodded her head.

“Yes.”

With Teil’s permission, Chloe slowly put her hand on Teil’s shoulder.

The warm and soft touch of a woman felt all over her body.

Chloe’s face rested on his shoulder, and a sweet scent swept his nose.

Holding him tightly for a moment, she said in a low voice.

“For sure. We will meet again.”

I heard Chloe’s voice in my ears.

“I’m doing well until then. Tale.”

See you again, how are you?

Though puzzled, Tail thought she was just saying goodbye, and she overheard her words before replying.

“Chloe-sama, please be well.”

Tale stroked her hair lightly.

Soft blonde hair passed between his fingers.

After holding her for a while, she slowly backed away from her.

On her expression, regret and excitement coexisted.

“You will really miss it. Tale.”

As she said that, she gave a shattering smile.

“So wait.”

Until I am ready to bring you.

Chloe swallowed her words.

And then she slowly turned around and walked away.

As if to promise the next one.

* * *

Tail came out of the building immediately.

‘But. Why are you making such a fuss?’

Since the news of victory had sounded, the workers were glancing at Cecilia’s tent nervously.

Tayl, who saw that, had a hunch.

‘Something happened.’

Tail moved towards it at a quick pace.

At the same time, a shrill voice hit her ears.

“Don’t go! I’m not going!!!”

“Cecilia. Please listen! He’s just a commoner kid. I’m not in the same class as you.”

There, Cecilia was seen fighting the Marquis of Duvir.

“Don’t talk about Tails like that! And I’m not going! I’m not going!”

“Cecilia!!!”

Madame Duvir raised her voice and shouted.

At the same time, Cecilia found Tail.

“Te, Tail!”

She ran to him, scattering her tears.

And then, wrapped in his arms, she cried out loud.

“I…. I hate to go! He said he didn’t want to be separated from Tail….”

She was crying in Tail’s arms.

Then he raised her head slightly and said with a desperate expression.

“Tail, can’t you come with me? Huh?”

Tale glanced at Mrs. Duvir, who was glaring at the two with a disapproving expression.

If you say you’re going from here, Mrs. Duvir will probably go crazy.

Tail continued her words as if to calm Cecilia.

“My lady. Are you okay. Do not worry. You can write a letter.”

“Letter… ?”

She looked up at her tail with a confused look on her face.

“Still. Still not enough I can’t see anymore….”

She gripped the collar of her tail with both hands.

“Tail. You said you would stay by my side that it doesn’t disappear You promised!”

She shook his collar wildly as if resentful of Tails.

Tears flowed from her eyes again and scattered in the air.

Seeing Cecilia’s appearance, Tail lowered her body to meet her gaze.

“My lady.”

Tale stroked her hair.

And after a long time, I used the skill ‘Brother’s hand is a weak hand’.

Then I could see Cecilia calming down little by little.

“Please visit the lady while writing the letter.”

“Huh…. I hate it….”

Cecilia whimpered and wept again.

“If the lady comes back. Then go see the night market with me.”

Tail continued to use her skill.

“I’m going to see the mountain behind me too. Let’s see how much the world has changed.”

“Huh….”

“I will never forget you and will always wait for you.”

Cecilia continued to sob at Tail’s words.

However, it seemed more stable than before.

“So. Until then, don’t skip food and stay healthy.”

At Tail’s words, Cecilia nodded her head roughly.

Cecilia probably knows.

Since her brother is dead, the only person who can inherit this family is herself.

She knew that without her confidence, this family would come to an end, so she had to go.

Knowing that, she must have been even more upset.

Tails whispered to her with a big smile on her face.

“When we meet again as healthy and cool adults, I will give you a new present.”

Cecilia’s eyes widened slightly at Tail’s words.

And she sniffled and continued her words.

“You won’t give it to Chloe, will you?”

Even in her last moments, Cecilia, who was wary of Chloe, seemed cute, and Tail burst into laughter.

“Puha. Of course. I will give you only Cecilia-sama.”

“I will never forget you.”

“Me too.”

This was the answer, but Tail knew.

Perhaps the moment she goes back, she will forget herself in the pouring love letters and party.

That’s why sadness is only for a moment.

Tale smiled bitterly.

“So, do it yourself. If you keep crying, there is no present for you~”

“Ah. No. Gift! I’m done!”

Cecilia immediately wiped away her tears.

Then she handed it to Tails, with only her little finger raised.

“Then promise me. Tale.”

It was a ‘promise between the two of us’ that we made when we were going to feed each other for the first time.

Tails let out a small laugh and snapped her little finger.

“I promised. You can’t break it.”

Cecilia said in a snoring voice.

“If you don’t keep it and run away.”

Cecilia’s crimson eyes shone bleakly.

“Whether it be mountains, seas, or rivers. Did you really hide?”

Like a wicked woman, she murmured grimly.

“Because I will follow you wherever you go.”

Her eyes were sticky as if they were tying a tail.

“So Tails must keep his promise.”

At Cecilia’s words, Tail smiled cutely.

Tale didn’t really believe what she said.

“Okay. All right.”

So she didn’t know the tail.

I didn’t expect Cecilia to be sincere in what she said.
