Chapter 64 – Can’t you sleep here?
Ashia slowly turned around. Kaligo was standing there with a puzzled look on his face.
“What’s the matter, Ashia? With those clothes…”
Clothes? Ashia looked down at herself.
“Ah…”
“…”
After taking a bath, she went straight down to the garden wearing only a gown over her thin chemise. The curves of her body were in fact completely exposed, to the extent that it was fortunate she didn’t meet any of the staff on the way.
“Ahh, this.”
Kaligo took his coat from the bench he was sitting on and draped it over her shoulders.
“It’s cold. The night breeze is still chilly although spring is around the corner.”
“…”
He threw his coat over her shoulders and for some reason, she thought it was a pity when he pulled his hands away.
“Ashia, what’s the matter…?”
She then let out a long sigh of lamentation. “Making a garden like this…”
’Did you instruct them to? Were you the one who gave the orders?’
She was choking up, but she had to ask him properly and get an answer. Even if her nervousness got the best of her, making her throat hoarse.
However, Kaligo knew exactly what she was curious about. He took a step closer to Ashia again. He was so close they could clearly feel each other’s temperature. Her eyes turned to his face.
Despite the unfeeling expression on his face, the voice that came out of his mouth was sweet, “You liked the waterway reflecting the sky like a mirror.”
Ashia’s eyes widened at his words.
“On the vine-covered arch… there were different flowers that bloomed each season.” Kaligo looked into Ashia’s eyes and softly smiled. “Winter will be over soon. Large and small flowers will bloom with the arrival of spring. Flowers will start to fill the arch, and it will become more beautiful when summer arrives. It will be a splendid view… when your favorite roses cover all the arches.”
He looked at Ashia solemnly. It was as if his voice could be heard from his gaze, telling her that he had carefully taken notice of her favorite place.
“I finally found out why you liked roses. Foolishly… realizing that only until when you were not around anymore.”
“…”
’Really, what should I do with this man?’
No matter how much she tried to be like stone, when he talked about missing her, enduring the passing of time alone, complaining about the past, and being shackled down by the times he wasn’t confident—how could she not be shaken by the painful confessions of this forlorn man?
Stronger waves crashed into Ashia’s already wavering eyes. It wasn’t something that he could have known from observing her for a day or two. This indifferent man seemed to be making a belated statement that he was not so indifferent after all.
“Why…” Ashia’s voice trembled. “If you did this… who would be touched?
“…”
“Are you thinking that if you do do this now, all our past will be nothing?”
The memory of shaking hands saying that she would forgive everything evaporated, and the resentment she thought she had shaken off slowly flashed in her head.
Kaligo’s voice shook, “…Because I missed you.”
“…”
He spoke with no hesitation, thinking that this was his chance to confess his true feelings, which he had thrown into a deep pit and covered up back in those days when he was still foolish and had no courage. It was possible now. Even if it sounded absurd, he could convey his sincerity.
“I was afraid that I’d forget you if I didn’t do this.”
“…”
“I think it will hurt more if I forget. So… so I did this.”
“Hhh…”
She scrunched her eyes shut.
’I didn’t do this to see her in pain like this…’
She buried her face in her small hands, shoulders heaving.
“Ashia…”
Kaligo held her close as she sobbed weakly in his arms. She seemed to tremble more, but it didn’t matter. As long as she could pour out her emotions and could calm down…
Ashia hugged Kaligo and naturally buried her face into his chest.
“Even with something like this—heuk… if you think my heart will be at ease immediately… heuk, that’s a big mistake,” she continued stubbornly.
Kaligo patted her back in response, resting his cheek on her hair. “Yes, I will work harder. So that I can get closer to you until you can’t endure it.”
“…Like a fool.”
“Only for you.”
