The fifth day Elle suffered from mumps wind.

Finally, the fever also dropped to the extent of slight fever, and the swelling of the face was almost removed.

Kaori, who, as usual, measured the heat with an ear thermometer, nods loudly when she sees the number "37.3" displayed there.

"Looks okay now. The fever's dropped to this point, and the swelling on my face is gone."

Elle, who was listening to Kaori with only her upper body up in bed, shined that face together when she understood Kaori's words.

"... you can finally meet Mr. Yastaka..."

Elle shrugged small as she pulled the duvet to her mouth, with an ever-happier grin like a swing.

"Oh, so glad to see you so well?

"Well, that's right. 'Cause you haven't let me see your face in five days, have you? When I came to this world and started living in this house... it was not until today that I could see you so much... meh... so........................................................."

Elle's voice gradually dwindles.

At this time, Elle finally realized what she was talking about. Perhaps my head was blurred because of the heat remaining.

For that reason, he was spitting out thoughts he had hidden in his chest.

Elle's face is dyed bright red with a momentum that is likely to produce the sound of a bush.

Sure, her complexion was slightly red because of the fever, but it's obviously not because of the fever that Elle's face is red now.

If you move your gaze toward Kaori, who remains bright red in complexion.

The mother of the world over here stared at Elle with a face like a child whose prank had succeeded.

"Ahhhhhhhh..."

I suddenly Elle wore a duvet all the way to her head and fled into the darkness.

Kaori, on the other hand, saw her righteous daughter (Muzume), who had such a cute reaction, and she leaked a laugh when she dull.

Are you hearing that laugh or not? It was Elle diving into the futon for a while, but she gives a nasty face because she couldn't stand the heat.

"Ugh. My son is a happy man, isn't he?

"Piaaaaaaa!!"

Back inside the futon again, El. Elle knew her thoughts again as she turned bright red in the dark.

I am attracted to him. That's a hard fact to move anymore.

It was certainly benevolent at first.

He suddenly picked himself up by this world in return for nothing.

He always laughed and kindly taught me the language and common sense of this world.

He kept supporting himself all the time, unfamiliar with this world.

But the thought that was benevolent was immediately elevated to another.

His face laughing. His face looks a little troubled. Seriously his face.

When would I have noticed the slightest warmth in the back of my chest when I looked at his various expressions?

It's been over a hundred and fifty years since she was born. Naturally, during those one hundred and fifty years, it is not that I have no experience of being attracted to the opposite sex.

But no heterosexual could warm me up in my chest more than he did.

That's when she realized how she felt about him.

─ ─ I give him... a preference for Mr. Yastaka as a heterosexual.

and.

"Oh, um... mother-in-law..."

"What?

Kaori stroked slowly, lovingly, Elle's head, once again facedown from the futon.

"This... to Mr. Yastaka..."

"Yeah, I won't tell you."

Elle listened to her mother-in-law and gave her a zero breath of relief.

Indeed, Elle's heart leans heavily on your health. But I wasn't going to tell him about it.

I am a Gentile and a different creature from man. I don't really think his feelings are right for me like that.

In fact, interracial love was viewed as heretical in the world where El was.

Sometimes they hit their heterogeneous counterparts with sexual desires, but in those cases it was mostly due to unilateral violence or when they were corrupted by slaves to handle their sexual desires, etc.

So Elle had no idea that Yasushi, a human being, would have romantic feelings for herself as an elf.

Elle was going to keep her thoughts in her chest for a long time.

As a family. As a sister-in-law. If only I could stay with him. That's what I was thinking.

At this time, not yet.

"Well, he doesn't seem to be as full about you either, so if it's a confession from you, I'm sure it'll work out."

"............................................................... Huh?

"Of course, I didn't hear exactly how he felt, because he's a mother, even if he looks like this. I'm gonna figure out what my kid's thinking."

"Yes, no, not... in this world, isn't love between the fae heresy?

"'Cause there's only people in this world, right? Interracial, heretical, nothing, right?

"Oh yes... well then... ho, really... Yastaka..."

The color of Elle's face stains red again.

Know that you can be a paedophile for Yasushi. Find out you might be seen as a single woman, not a rare Fae named Elf. In Elle's chest he gradually fills with the joy and happiness that comes in.

"As I said earlier, this is only my guess, because I didn't clearly ascertain how you feel..."

Kaori tries to wave gently in front of Elle, but doesn't show any reaction.

Now, the look on her face looks very happy. I felt like Kaori somehow knew what paranoid theater was being performed in Elle's brain right now.

This may also be my instinct as a mother to know what my child is thinking.

That evening. When her mother finally gave her permission to see her, Yasushi visited Elle's room with her bag on her way home from school.

Breathe in front of Elle's room and gently knock on the door.

Soon after hearing her voice from inside for a long time, Yasushi slowly opened the door.

In the room, she was on the bed.

He was wearing his usual pajamas, waking up his torso and reading something.

The El smiles when he sees Yasushi's face. Although the cooling sheet is still affixed to its forehead, I don't see anything swollen around my cheeks anymore. It's the usual El that Yasushi knows well.

"Hih, it's been a long time, El. also, are you feeling better already?

"Ha, yes... hi, it's been a long time, Mr. Yastaka..."

When Yasushi moves the chair - what her sister used to use - to the side of the bed, she exchanges words with Elle for a few days as she lowers her hips there.

Yasushi deliberately shifted his gaze away from Elle. Elle stares at you and herself, looking at Yasushi with a hint of highness at times.

Still, there are times when the two gaze is intertwined by chance.

In that case, we both rush off our gaze at the same time and do the same thing again several times.

Yasushi, who was completely panicked and no longer knew what to say, looked around to seek salvation.

and things in his sight jump in.

It was a comic book that Elle had been reading until earlier.

"Is that it? That comic..."

"Yes, it's something I borrowed from Mr. Takashi before. I was just asleep and free, so I was rereading it again."

I also have a comic strip.

But most of the comics in his possession are sports objects, and it's not funny if Elle reads them that he doesn't know the rules of the sport.

Ryu, who heard the story before, said, "Wouldn't this be fun for you, Elle?" It was what Elle was reading now that he left it.

Naturally, Ryu's recommended comics are fantastic. What about letting real fantasy world residents read fantasy stuff comics? I thought so, but at the time El seemed to like it a lot.

Anything, something similar to the world I was in, something completely different, and that's the opposite of funny.

Elle was also greatly surprised by the art of drawing this comic strip.

"Oh, yeah. Speaking of Ryu..."

With Ryu's name out, Yasushi remembered interacting with Ryu and Aoyes at school.

"They... Sawamura, Yasuda and Sawada, not only Ryuya and Aoi, but also made a fuss when Elle said he had a mumpy cold."

"What!? Did I say something about me to you guys?!?"

Embarrassed, and whining small, Elle turns her gaze just a little blamed on her health.

"Oh, I'm sorry. At first, I was just going to talk to Ryu and Aoi, but Sawamura and I broke in while I was talking to them. I said I was coming to see you, but I told you not until the fever went down. So when I find out Elle's fever's down, this is gonna push me... okay?

"Yes, because I want to apologize for worrying you all, too."

"Well, I'll tell him so. But don't push it yet, okay?

Yanggui gently slaps Pompong and Elle on the head.

The act of merely showing casual affection. But Elle, clearly aware of his feelings for him, jumped his heart rate even for just that.

At the same time as the fast tempo heartbeat, the blood sent from it travels vigorously through the entire body, dyeing El's skin red.

"Is that it? Isn't the color of your face redder than just now? Could it be that the fever is up again...?

Yasushi reaches out to Elle's forehead to make sure of the fever. But when Elle saw the hand of Yasushi stretched out to him, he turned his face even more red and stopped pressing his hand.

"Pia!! So, I'm fine!! Rest a little and I'll be back to normal!! Pi, pi, pi, pi!!"

In response to Elle's call, the Water Elementary, the Spirit of Water, jumps out of a pet bottle on the pillow and rides over Elle's head with Po Bin.

"Look, look, if you let Pi-kun cool down along with your forehead's" Clean and Clean ", the heat will go down right away!!"

"Oh, yeah? Well, it's time for me. You can't stay here forever and let El push you."

Put that down, Yasushi stands up and tries to get out of the room.

On its back toward itself, Elle accidentally leaks a lonely voice down.

Had not noticed that, Yasushi looked back at the entrance and exit of the room and left the room behind, saying "Take care" at the end.

Bhattan, and the closing sound of the door sounds, and Elle gives a slightly lonely look. But soon there was a delightful grin on his face, and he laughed with pleasure as he pulled the duvet up to his mouth.

"I haven't been able to talk to Mr. Yastaka for a long time today."

Look at him. Listen to him. And most importantly, feel his presence right beside you.

For a few days I had fever, my head was not blurred or my body was spicy because of the fever, but I wanted to see your face asexually when the symptoms healed to some extent.

I just didn't see him for a few days, but Elle even felt like he hadn't seen him in a long time.

I was able to meet that Yasushi today. Elle can't wait to see that.

"A little more... Tomorrow or the day after, my health will be back on track. Then again with Mr. Yastaka..."

Once Elle's health has recovered, Yuji and Kaori will return to their place of assignment and their lives will begin again as before.

The life with Yuji and Kaori is certainly lively and fun, but the life that Yasushi and I have lived in relaxation is still burning harder in Elle's memory.

".................. Yastaka and... fu, alone..."

I faintly dyed El's face red again.

Even now, we've been living together forever. Now that I am conscious of him again and at the same time know that he may be favoring himself again.

The rest of his life seemed as if it had never been the same before, and Elle held her own cheeks tight with both hands with fever.

On her head like that, the Spirit of Water had played it over and over again to literally cool her head, but at last she never noticed it.
