“I will tell you the truth.”

I closed my eyes and revealed the truth. 

“It is because of me that you lost your memory.”

“It’s because of Miss Ria?”

“I hit you in the head. You lost your memory because of the aftereffects. It’s all my responsibility, so I am taking care of Sir Dillian. I have no other ulterior motive.”

“… Miss Ria, you hit me in the head? You’ve been taking care of me because of that guilt?”

The voice above my head was as cold as ice.

‘Crap, looked like I failed.’

I hastened to defend myself. 

“Yes, but there is a story to that. Suddenly Sir Dillian, who was in Runaway state tried to attack me.”

After explaining step by step why such a situation occurred, I waited for his answer like a prisoner waiting for the death sentence. 

Dillian, who tried to eat me, made a mistake first, but it was true that I broke his head in the back, so I had no words to say. 

And in Dillian point of view, he might feel like he has been made a fool of.  
 

“I see. So this whole feeling is a fake. You are not my benefactor but my enemy.”

“To be enemy…But i treated your,”

“-you would say it like that.” 

The unfinished words were scattered in the air. At the dramatical change of atmosphere, my eyes grew.

“I don’t believe what Miss Ria says anymore.” 

“Why? Why don’t you!”

I took the courage to say it but you treat me as a liar!

“It was quite plausible this time. But I’m not that halfwit to be fooled again. I’m sorry to hear that. It was a heartfelt defeat to take me off, but you failed in a good way.”

What is this bastxrd saying…

To get to this point, I laugh in pain.

“… You, are you have a doubting sickness? Why can’t you believe what people say!”

“Well, I don’t have memories, so I don’t know.”

Haha, as I let out sigh, I facepalm.

“Yeah, that damned memory. That memory is the problem.”


I slipped out of my seat and walked to the kitchen.

“That why…?”

“It will be back if I beat you again.”

I held the frying fan high. At the same time, Dillian rose from his seat.

“Wait. Miss Ria. Don’t push yourself hard. Calm down.”

“It’s alright. I’ll send you in just one shot.”

One shot one kill. I’ll let you go without pain. 

I swung the frying pan like a person without tomorrow.

The sound of cutting through the wind was fierce. 

“Put your pretty back head here, please.”

“I would like to listen to everything Miss Ria say.”
 

Dillian snatched me on the wrist with a smiling face. For a moment, at my weakened hand, the frying pan fell. 

After taking it lightly, Dillian threw the frying pan on the sofa and wrapped his remaining hand around my wrist. 

 
Like flowing water, it was natural. 

“I have lost my memory, but I’m sure of this.” 

 
A firm arm wrapped around my waist pulled me in.

 
In Dillian’s arms, I shuddered at the tickling voice on my ear.

 
“That the place where I am is right next to you.”

 
A face which came just around the nose, clouded my eyes. 

“Even, if it is a one-sided love.”

“Cra, crazy.”

“You swear cutely too.”

Dillian’s eyes bent slightly.

As I enchanted just as I looked at him, the door opened.

“You, Dillian you brat! What kind of shameless act is this!”

Nathan who appeared late, shouted.

When I thought this was the right time, I hurriedly out of Dillian’s arms.

I ignored the gaze and walked to the room. 
 

Trying to hide the red face.

Bang!

I slipped against the closed door and rubbed my ears. 
 

It was so hot and itchy that I couldn’t stand it.
