Chapter 787
Witnessing a sister fight
Rahle had lived for a long time, and so did require much taking care of. But it would be a different matter for the Cockatrice fledglings.
Tilura was still young, and would want to play with Leo and Liza… So even with Rahle’s help, it did seem like it would be too much for her.
That being said, I didn’t think the idea needed to be rejected completely.
In fact, I was closer to being on Tilura’s side…
“You said things like that before, and failed to do them. How can I believe you!”
“But…I will do it this time!”
“That’s not enough! You only care about Rahle recently. And Rahle is not around, it’s Leo or Liza or Mr. Takumi!”
“You say that, but you’re always spending time with Mr. Takumi!”
“What!? That’s not true. I have never felt jealous about that!”“But you’re always watching when we are playing in the garden!”
“That’s…only because I’m worried that you will make a fool of yourself… Also, stop changing the subject!”
“It’s related! You care more about Leo and Mr. Takumi than me! I wanted to play with you too!”
“Then you should have said so! How was I supposed to know!?”
“I couldn’t say it! You are always thinking about other things! You don’t even care about me!”
“Why do you say that! I just want what’s best for…”
“Then why don’t you spend more time with me! All you do is tell me to study!”
“Because that is important! It will be useful for you! And it’s your fault for not taking it more seriously!”
It seemed like they had forgotten why, but were continuing to argue with each other.
Was it best to stop it? Leo and Rahle also looked awkward.
Liza did not like arguments, and she was holding Leo tightly.
The Cockatrice chicks looked confused… However, Sebastian and Ms. Lyra looked normal. Actually, they even looked a little happy.
“Sebastian?”
I looked at him questioningly.
“Yes, what is it?”
“What is it? But…aren’t you going to do something?”
Sebastian did not think it was a problem.
“Normally, Lady Claire and Lady Tilura do not bear their emotions to this degree.”
“Indeed…they usually get along so well.”
“However, even if they are sisters, they do not think the same way. And they see things differently. That is fine. It is better that they can be honest with each other. As long as things don’t go too far, that is.”
Is that so? I suppose they weren’t getting physical, but it seemed a little intense.
“Back at the orphanage, fights like these happened all of the time. Of course, if it got out of hand, the headmistress would interfere… But if it was something on this level, they would just let it play out.”
“Yes, I fought a lot too…”
Ms. Lyra started to talk about her time in the orphanage.
Well, if you had so many children together, such things were bound to happen.
“So Ms. Gelda has such experiences. What about you, Ms. Lyra?”
“No, not me.”
“Hoho. I heard it from Ms. Anna. How you would get into fights with the boys and win…”
“Se-Sebastian. There’s no need to bring that…”
“That’s right! Ms. Lyra would have a gang of girls that she would lead!”
“Gelda… We don’t need to talk about that now…”
“Ye…yes…!”
“Mr. Takumi. We are discussing the ladies now. It has nothing to do with me.”
“Of-of course…”
Still, I thought about Ms. Lyra standing up against the boys at the orphanage, and could not help but smile.
