I lifted my head. The cold wind added a chill to my wet face. Idriche’s and my eyes met. His eyes shook lightly. As if it was hard to believe I was really Cecilia, he slowly closed and opened his eyes.
“Cecilia.”
His voice became low.
How much have you suffered?
Once again, tears burst out.
His face was captured in one glance. His cheeks were noticeably raised, and the narrow eye area was sensitively sharp.
Whether he now truly realized I was Cecilia, he groped my face with both hands. His usually smooth hands felt rough.
“How did you come here? Is your body okay? No, it can’t be okay.”
“So why did you make me suffer like this!”
I wanted a moving reunion, but the choked sobs came out first, and tears flowed uncontrollably.
“You’re leaving like this? After suffering so much searching for Idriche with a truly painful body. If you go this way, they say he already left, and if you go that way, they say he left yesterday. Stay here a little longer.”
“…I’m sorry.”
Tears flowed down Idriche’s left eye, moistening his dry cheeks.
“Sorry. Thank you for letting me live.”
Idriche said as if collapsing, tears streaming down from his eyes.
If you were going to cry like this at the sight, why leave? If it was this hard…
“You’re not a real fool. Did you think I would be resting comfortably when you leave like this? You promised not to leave my side, but you didn’t keep it.”
With those words, I began to cry loudly. Still, I couldn’t wipe away the tears because I was holding Idriche with both hands.
Idriche listened to my words blankly, and as if trying to wipe away my tears, he raised his hand. However, his trembling hand didn’t touch my face until the end.
“If you want to wipe it, then wipe it!”
I grabbed his hand with both of mine and brought it to my face. It was rough. Surprised by the sensation, I looked at his hand. The hand I confirmed with my eyes was even more messed up.
“Why is your hand like this?”
His hand was full of long scars as if stabbed with a knife. Some were fresh wounds, and some seemed not too long ago.
“What is this… Did Idriche do this? Why?”
Idriche’s usually straight gaze shook listlessly.
“I couldn’t bear the memories of that day, so I couldn’t endure it.”
So, to erase the memories left in his hands like this…
I bit my lips. The view was blurred by the teary eyes.
“Cecilia, let go of this…”
“Follow me quietly.”
With eyes swollen like a pufferfish, I dragged Idriche by the collar and returned to the mansion. Terminus and the lord looked at us with surprised eyes. However, Terminus silently understood the situation, sent applause and a thumbs-up to me without making any noise, and the lord wisely refrained from interfering between us.
Thanks to that, I brought Idriche straight to the room that he had made me miserable a while ago, without anyone’s interference.
I’m going to lock the door and windows so that Idriche can’t escape. And I’ll tie him up tightly with a rope, and fill him with handcuffs so that he can never escape.
I swallowed my tears all the way up.
But when I came back to the room and faced Idriche, that determination waned.
Facing Idriche’s face under the bright light, I couldn’t maintain the resolution.
Under the bright light, Idriche’s face was too messed up.
I was hesitant in the face of Idriche, whose face was so messed up under the bright light.
How could he have lived? With what heart has he lived?
The face is so damaged.
He lost weight, his cheeks were hollow, and his eyes were sharper. A dark and sinking energy, as if sadness had engulfed him, emanated from him.
I caressed Idriche’s face. His lips and skin were rough.
“You really don’t understand. Idriche is well-featured. Don’t hurt something so precious; it hurts my heart.”
“You…”
Idriche’s voice was suppressed. It seemed like he was afraid to ask if it’s okay.
“It’s not okay. How much did you suffer looking for Idriche? Idriche is more important than that. Are you okay?”
“You don’t need to worry about me.”
“Come on, seriously. Why are the hands of someone like that like this?”
Then I unabashedly stripped Idriche’s clothes. Since the wounds I created were enough to be non-existent, it was obvious what kind of state the existing wounds were in.
Idriche seemed bewildered but didn’t resist much. He looked at me with sad eyes, as if he had no power to refuse.
As I removed the thin clothes, his body, more prominent with bones than before, was clearly exposed.
And I lost words. Idriche’s body was battered.
