SPMB - Side Story Chapter 17

My Body Has Been Possessed By Someone

< To Alex.>

Kanna hesitated while holding the fountain pen.

What should she say? There are so many things she wants to say...

<Are you doing well?>

She ends up using the obvious greeting. Kanna laughed.

"Of course, you'll be doing well."

A few months ago, Alessandro woke up from a long sleep. But that was all.

Alessandro did not return. He chose not to return...

That small coastal town, that's what's left.

"I need rest."

Yes, of course it is. No one in this world needs rest more desperately than that person.

So she left. Because her very existence must be a great agony to him.

'I want to be with you, but...'

Kanna smiled bitterly and looked at the letter.

Alessandro  Addis, that man has a very old secret. Perhaps he intended to hide it for the rest of his life. She would have believed that when everything was over, his life would also be over.

But life went on, and his secrets were on full display.

So now she had to make a decision.

Will he admit the secret, or will he bury it forever?

She doesn't know what decision to make.

But she'll make a decision after the break. He was going to obey whatever it was.

That's why she's staying away now. They haven't seen each other even once since they parted ways in the coastal town. They just keep exchanging letters.

When will she be able to see him again?

Knocking sound.

"Can I come in?"

It was then. 

Knock, knock.

There was a knock on the door.

Before he could hear the answer, he opened the door and came in.

"If that's the case, why are you knocking?"

Kanna folded the letter and scolded him.

"What a knock between us."

"What? There is something between us."

"There is something hot and intense.

"..."

Is that kid crazy? Kanna glared at him with contempt.

"There is no such thing."

"There must be."

"No."

"Remember it well,  Kanna. There must be something."

"Shut up. You low-grade pervert."

"Seeing as you know very well that I am a low-grade pervert, do you think there is something wrong with me?"

Orsini chuckled.

'Look at him. Okay. I'm dead.'

She guesses he's in the best mood today, seeing as he makes jokes that aren't typical of others.

"Hey, move to the side. Please sit down."

Orsini tapped Kanna on the shoulder and squeezed into the seat next to her.

"Come on? Go sit over there."

"I like it here."

"It's narrow so you get stuck!"

"So it's good."

"It's narrow! Hey!"

Kanna hit his shoulder, but only her palm hurt.

Okay, do whatever you want.

After sighing and giving up, Orsini seemed to feel better.

"What brought you here? Isn't it time to work now?"

"I have business to attend to."

"What?"

"That's it."

Orsini cleared his throat and glanced at Kanna's face.

"So that's what it is."

"Huh."

Kanna stared at him. Looking straight into his eyes, Orsini seemed a little taken aback.

"That's it."

"Huh."

"Therefore..."

"...That is What was it?"

Why is he like that? Judging by the way he was stuttering, it seemed like he had forgotten what to say.

'He's a really weird guy.'

Orsini often said this. He used to act like a broken machine when he was close and stared into her eyes like he was now.

"Isn't that what you came to talk about?"

Unable to wait, she spoke first.

"The story of your successor."

"Uh. That's right. Yes."

Orsini nodded as if it only occurred to him then.

"I knew it."

"That's because I have ears too."

Recently, Orsini had been under subtle pressure from his vassals. A duty of care. In other words, there was pressure to hasten marriage and heir production.

"So, why didn't you make one when you married Lilienne?" 

When Kanna lightly teased him, he frowned.

"Don't talk nonsense."

"So what are you going to do? Are you going to remarry?"

"There's no need to do that. It's a matter of just having one child to inherit the title anyway."

"..."

“So, Kanna.”

Slowly, an ominous feeling came over her.

The same premonition I had when Orsini made a ridiculous proposal.

 "Will you marry me?"

"Do you want to make it with me?"

"..."

Kanna knew it would be like this.

Kanna glared at him with a pitiful expression. This guy really doesn't know what progress is.

Have she ever wanted to come with him? Will she marry him? He keeps saying things like this and this time he wants to make it with her? 

"Hey, think about it. How much does Addis have? But imagine if your child has Addis, uh? Do you think it would be good?"

Orsini spoke quickly, perhaps a little nervous.

"It doesn't matter whether it's a daughter or a son. Just one person, uh?"

"..."

"No, two people are fine if you want. Three is also good. Actually, four..."

"What are you saying, you idiot!"

Kanna eventually couldn't hold back and burst out laughing.

"Don't talk nonsense, Orsini. Are you out of your mind?"

"..."

"A child? 1? With you? Do you think that will work? Where are you saying such funny things?"

Kanna laughed and laughed for a while. How much was laughed at like that?

"Is this funny?"

Pop. 

Kanna's laughter stopped. Orsini's face had already become cold and frozen.

"Are you angry?"

However, he answered honestly.

"Huh, very. It would be better not to laugh. I'm being serious."

"Did I answer seriously too?"

"That's terrible. If you're going to lie, just shut up."

Kanna shrugged her shoulders.

"That's right. It is a lie. Honestly, there is no need to seriously worry about this. No. I really hate it."

At this point, it's almost time to explode...

But surprisingly, Orsini spoke patiently.

"Hey, Kanna. Think about it seriously. That's the best method in the current situation. Otherwise..."

He trailed off. Then he quickly added.

"Otherwise, I would have to have a child with another woman. Are you telling me to do that now?"

Kanna kept her mouth shut.

Her imagination unfolded spontaneously. Orsini and a woman standing next to Orsini. The child between them.

'Not really. I don't care.'

So why is she annoyed?

Is she really jealous of him?

No, no. Is that possible? Kanna knows jealousy because she's experienced it before.

Didn't hear her stomach turn when she saw Alex and the cooking teacher?

At that time, she hated that cooking teacher. She doesn't even know what kind of woman she is, but Kanna hates her the most in the world.

However, in her imagination, she did not hate the woman next to Orsini. Instead, Orsini felt very unlucky.

It was pure Irritation, a feeling of stomach-churning discomfort that was different from the jealousy she experienced back then. 

"I like that."

"What?"

"I'm telling you to figure it out yourself. What do I care about what you do with other women? I take no interest."

"..."

"You can either remarry, take a mistress, or have a baby outside."

After Kanna said it, she immediately regretted it. She shouldn't have said that Just now. This might have been a bit harsh...

"Are you angry?" 

Kanna glanced at him. Orsini gritted his teeth and looked like he was holding back something. So, something like pain.

When Kanna saw that scene, she naturally sighed. As expected, the words were a bit harsh.

"Orsini, let's find another way."

"Other way? Should I bring in the government? Like you used to be Alexei's bastard mistress?"

As expected, he looks angry. Kanna thought for a moment and decided.

'I need to release you.'

Anyway, she indeed spoke like the devil.

"I didn't say that."

"Who do you know by being a fool? That's it. It doesn't even sound like a word...."

Orsini's voice, which had been talking fiercely, gradually calmed down. Eventually, they dispersed without being able to finish.

"..."

He lowered his gaze.

Kanna's hand. Kanna's hand was on his knee.

"Calm down and think carefully. There must be another way."

"If only it were another way."

"If you think about it, it will come out."

"Something like that...... It can't be there."

Orsini tried to respond calmly, but it seemed that all his attention was focused on the affected area.

"Don't you come to that conclusion before you even think about it properly?"

Kanna gave his knee a firm squeeze. At that moment, Orsini's breathing stopped. She felt his thigh muscles tighten.

"Yes?"

"That...... It is."

"Huh. It's early."

It slowly went up.

Orsini tightened his grip on the armrest. Cursing and moaning came out of his mouth in a muffled mess.

"You are such a crazy bitch. I said you were like this..."

But it ended there.

The conversation did not continue.

His breath got hotter.
