After the shopping trip, it was lunch time, and the two decided it was time to have lunch.

The two of them went to a relatively well-known store on Oilis Island. It is said that this store is also very popular here on Oilis Island, and sometimes there is even a queue.

This store has only been open for a short time, but when they arrived at the entrance, most of the seats were already filled. Fortunately, there were only two of them, so they still found an empty seat. They waited until they were served food

By that time, there was already a long queue at the door.

There were so many types of dishes on the menu that Lu was naturally confused and didn't know what to choose, so in the end she left all the ordering to Alice.

Alice naturally knew what to choose, and not long after choosing the dishes, she started to serve them.

Contrary to expectations, Alice did not order any luxurious dishes, but just ordered a few ordinary dishes. After the dishes were served, the two of them started eating separately.

Although there are no particularly luxurious dishes, the taste is unexpectedly good. Although there are only about 5 dishes, I finally finished them all.

"Do you really don't have to pay me?"

"Of course not. I invited you today, so let me pay for it. And didn't Alice herself pay the money today?"

"That's right...Thank you. Now that's it, let's just listen to it."

"Um."

"What should we do next...how to arrange it?"

"The weather is so nice, let's take a walk. It can also help digestion."

"Okay, in that case let's go."

As she said that, Alice hugged Lu's right arm, and this was the usual tacit understanding between the two of them.

After the battle at Mosferad, Alice liked to hold Lu's arm whenever they walked on the road. Although Lu felt a little shy, she never refused Alice's request.

"here it is……"

Lu took Alice to a park full of beautiful flowers. There was an artificial river in the center of the park, and a vermilion bridge above the river.

The two crossed the bridge to the other side and sat on a bench.

"Have you been here?"

"No, I came here after reading it in the guide book. It is slightly away from the bustling areas, so you can enjoy a quiet time. It is very suitable for couples to come for a tryst."

After Lu said this, Alice noticed that there were several men and women sitting together on several benches nearby and posing in intimate poses. At this time, Alice felt a little shy.

However, Lu didn't seem to care. He put his arm around Alice's shoulders and stretched out.

"The sea breeze is so comfortable."

The wind carried the strong smell of the sea tide and gently passed over the two of them.

After that, the two of them remained silent, but they leaned against each other tightly, enjoying the most precious time for them.

"The sun is going down, shouldn't we go back?"

"That's right. It's quite a distance from the venue where we live."

"Lu, when you invited me on a date today, you actually wanted to cheer me up again, right? Because you are very gentle, you have already seen that although I am energetic on the surface, I am actually still very depressed, right?"

"Yes, I do hope that you can cheer up again, but whether you can do it or not is another matter."

"I did it. Just being by my side makes me feel like I have support. But...I'm sorry..."

"Why are you apologizing?"

"My lover is really not decent."

"What does it matter if you have a few lows now and then? Alice is full of tenderness and charm."

"...Really, you were so embarrassed when you entered the underwear store with me before, but now you are very straightforward."

"...I feel embarrassed when you say that."

The two looked at each other and smiled, and their cheeks turned slightly red at this time.

"Lu... I feel really happy when I get along with you. When we were together in the academy and were called the "idiot couple" by everyone, it even made me forget the fate of my family for a while, which made me

I only think about my own happiness. With you by my side...with you, I really hope it can continue like this forever."

"Me too, I really hope to be with you forever."

Lu gently held Alice's hand instead of speaking. At this time, Alice's hand felt cold.

"I'm not very good at talking...so I can only use this method to express my feelings."

Lu tightened her grip on Alice's hand slightly, and her thoughts gradually passed from her hand holding Alice's to Alice's heart.

"Your thoughts have been fully conveyed to me."

The sound of waves once again filled the silence of the conversation between the two. Lu held Alice's hand and looked at the sea in the distance, waiting for her next words.

It’s okay if you don’t want to say anything.

The palms held together exchange the body temperature of the two of them, telling each other that you are not alone, and I am by your side to accompany you.

At this time, there is no need for words to modify it. All you need to do is quietly hold hands and look at the sea. Just doing this can heal the other person's heart at this time.

"...Maybe I shouldn't say these words. Even now, I'm still confused as to whether I should say it or not. This is my problem. It's meaningless if I don't solve it myself... I completely understand this truth.

However, I hope you listen to me, otherwise... I may collapse. But if I tell you, it may become a burden to you. I know this very well. That... So, Lu, if you

If you don’t want to hear it…”

"please tell me."

"dew……"

"I want to hear the end, so please tell me without forcing yourself. I will always hold your hand."

"...Then let me tell you, tell you about the girl you like...the fate that Alice Northfield has been carrying in the past...and the fact that she always wanted to find someone to tell her, but never told her.

Those words you said..."

"Go ahead and I'll hear the last word."

"...The first time was after you entered the academy and had the battle with Bios..."
