And now, back to the present

Are you alright?

Uwah!

Realizing who it was that caught her, Reina screamed and struggled to get out of Ethans arms.

Then, whoosh, Reina was promptly set down on the floor. Completely bewildered, she cautiously regarded him.

Im sorry.

She had no idea what she was apologizing for, but she just decided to say sorry first. Ethans been in such a bad mood these days, so it might be better to bow and raise the white flag first.

Apart from that, she also needed to apologize for taking too long to find the book he wanted.

Im so sorry

Ethans neat eyebrows became crumpled together when her despondent apologies continued. Seeing this, Reina spoke even quieter as she looked into his eyes.

I found almost every book, just one left It happened to be on top of the bookshelf over there, and I just

However, was it because she very nearly got hurt badly?

As she grasped her situation, her body started to tremble badly. At the same time, her voice as she tried to explain also quivered a lot.

T-Thats why, I was just trying to get it, but

No, stop it! Dont cry! Its not the time to cry, you tactless vocal cords!

Try as she might though, her voice refused to cooperate. In the end, she began to cry loudly.

Hiic I-I wasnt trying to make a ruckus, I just hiic! I really I really wasnt

She couldnt understand whats making her so sad. Her detestable tears just kept on dropping like chicken sh*t.

Ugh, hiic Really, I just, I tried to do well uwaaaah

The more she tried to explain, the more she couldnt read what was going on in his darkening gaze.

Haa Reina.

Look Hes angrier now! Please, just stop crying, Reina Chantra!

Uwaaah Im sorr, hiic, Im sorry

However.

Contrary to Reinas dreaded expectation that the look in his eyes would freeze over, Ethans reaction now was surprisingly warm.

Are you hurt anywhere?

Huu, wha?

It didnt end there.

As soon as she looked up at him with wide, round eyes, he placed his warm coat over her shouldershis coat that was full of his pleasant scent.

W-Whats going on?

Whats with the coat? And why wasnt he scolding her?

Hiic D-Deputy Director?

You must have been really surprised. Im sorry.

At a momentary loss because of the unexpected comfort and apology, Reina soon began to analyze Ethans behavior.

Are you hurt anywhere?

That line, and that out-of-the-blue apology

Do you regret that youve been too harsh on me?

Still, it was good practice to knock on a stone bridge before crossing it.

Reina cried a little more on purpose. You know, just in case.

Uwaaah

Still restless, Ethan reached near Reinas eyes, but he clenched his hand into a fist before he could touch her. Yet again, he seemed to want to wipe her tears away, and it looked like he didnt know what to do.

It really looks like what I think it is.

Despite being in the midst of sobbing, the wheels in her brain were turning tirelessly. And, after she had fully grasped the situation, she began to shed even more tearslike a fountain.

Uwaahh, it hurts

Shes making quite a ruckus considering they were inside a library right now, but it seemed like the librarian was gone. Since its only the two of them here, shouldnt it be okay?

It hurts? Let me see. Did something hit you while you were falling? How much pain do you feel?

The moment she complained, Ethan began to examine her condition bewilderedly. He looked all over for any sign of an injury, and as Reina was gradually spun around due to his hand, she continued to whine.

Im not injured But my heart hiic My heart hurts so bad! Uwaaah!

Its a bit different from before.

Feeling grumpy, pathetic and betrayedits all mixed up. Finally, she was able to express her resentment completely.

Haa Im sorry Reina.

Sweeping a hand over his face as he conveyed his sincere apology, he immediately pulled Reina into an embrace

?

What?

Leaving the tear streaks across her cheeks as they were, Reina stared blankly at the wide chest in front of her eyes, inwardly screaming.

W-What the heck?! Why Whats with the hug all of a sudden? I didnt expect this turn of events?!

Soon enough, as though to soothe a childs tears, his warm hand started patting her small back. At the same time, Reina froze in his arms even more.

No, I mean I purposely cried more to make him comfort me, but

But did he really need to comfort her to this degree?

Dont cry. Youre going to lose your voice at this rate, hm?

Look at this. Even his tone changed. Whats with all the affection spilling through your lips now, sir? As if he was comforting a younger sibling.

You must have been very shocked.

Yeah, well Shes plenty shocked now. Shes shocked to see him change so quickly!

You should go home early today. Ill report to the superiors.

And now this? Hes letting her get off work early? Did he go insane or did he Huh? Wait a sec.

Go home early?

Those three words sounded like a sweet lovers words to anyone at all Shes going home early?

Yes. After such a shock to your body, you must be very tired. So you should just rest today.

Really? Seriously?

And Im sorry Reina. Its my first time, so I Ive been so clumsy.

First time? Whats he saying?

I wont do that again. I wont allow myself to hurt you again, Reina.

Hurt, who? Me?

She was completely out of it. None of the words hes saying were registering in her mind.

What the hell is going on here exactly?
