"As I told you before, the handkerchief you have is one of the pair which Lady Aria has. They were handkerchiefs made to celebrate Lady Aria's birthday."

"Ah, you mean the handkerchief that connected me to Lady Sarah."

The eyes of the Marquis of Vincent answering Sarah was very friendly. He really fell in love with Sarah. The eyes of the Marquis of Vincent, who returned to Aria were also filled with kindness. He seemed not to care about Aria's rumors, which were circulating in the public.

"I really thank you very much," said the marquis, smiling softly.

Facing the face from the front, Aria stiffened herself.

'Have I ever been treated so warmly by someone I met for the first time?' This friendly, tender look was strange to Aria, who had lived in anxiety as she had always walked on thin ice.

She had always imagined and drawn such a response, but when she faced it, she found that a stunned feeling, rather than joy, stormed her. She had vowed to laugh as hard as she could. However, the never-experienced moment confused her.

"Aria...?"

When Aria's face, which had always smiled brightly, became dark, Sarah, who was embarrassed, asked her, "What's the matter?" The marquis also alternately looked at Aria and Sarah with a look of concern that he might have made some mistakes.

Aria raised her head and faced two pairs of eyes that sent a worried light toward her. She had just thought of them as a platform to use. The situation was more difficult than she had thought, as the unfamiliar feelings that she had never experienced before rushed into her.

However, she could not continue to cry. Aria, who had straightened her face soon, raised her mouth to create a smiling face. Unlike her usual seductive smile, it was a little awkward today.

"I really want you two to be happy."

It was awkward, but her smile, which was so pure and clean, was a heartfelt smile that Aria had never been able to express.

The Marquis of Vincent treated Aria as kindly and affectionately as Sarah as if to share the thoughts and feelings of Sarah. Even if she was close to Sarah, she was the only foreign object of the family of Count Roscent. They tried their best not to let Aria suffer any inconvenience in their mansion, so Aria had to accidentally feel a great deal of emotion, like, feelings of an unnecessary guilty mind.

But those feelings had been forgotten in just a week. Compared to the pain and unhappiness of Aria, and the path she had to walk to survive in the future, the slightest emotion was smaller than the dust that flew in the air. So she could get rid of it.

'Those little things won't help me in my life anyway.'

Aria spent her birthday with that kind of heart. After fifteen, she became sixteen before she was aware. It was the second sixteenth birthday that was different from the past. On her birthday, Sarah was so busy that she just showed her face and returned. Therefore, Aria spent her birthday with the young ladies, who she couldn't even remember their names. Just in case, she had sent a letter to Oscar, but naturally, he didn't show up. It was heartless to say that there was no reply.

And an anonymous and colorful gift arrived before Aria, and the contents contained a tulip flower that did not wither well so that it could be easily measured that who sent it.
