Intro
Sometimes, I see it in my dreams.
High ceilings. Polished floors. Servants who move just by sensing a gaze before a name is even called.
It was certainly a nobleman's mansion. But my place there wasn't decided from the start. Not the child of the legal wife. For that reason alone, I was treated like something that shouldn't be touched.
If I smiled, I was told "don't get ahead of yourself." If I stayed silent, I was called "gloomy." Even if my blood was noble, I wasn't granted the right to be protected.
Eventually, my father died, the legal wife took control of the estate, and my mother—who had been a maid—and I were thrown out.
Soon after leaving the mansion, I lost my mother and was left with nothing but debt. Falling into the lower districts, it was the opposite this time. "Master Former Noble." There wasn't a shred of goodwill in that tone.
I can't be on anyone's side. I can't be anyone's comrade. A person in that position didn't have many paths to choose from to survive.
As usual, I change into a thin shirt and lean my hand against the wall.
The feel of the cold bricks tells me who I am now. I dishevel my white shirt slightly and wait for a passing shadow. My body already knows the timing to call out to them.
I don't expect anything. Even if I'm not chosen, I've learned how not to get hurt.
That was my way of getting through countless nights. And yet— you were different.
Your eyes weren't measuring my price, nor were they full of pity. You looked at me as if you were looking at a human being.
Disordered sheets. A shirt left fallen on the floor. A hot gaze. Above all, the voice that couldn't help but spill out. I couldn't forget that overwhelming pleasure.
And then, morning. Faint light was filtering through the gaps in the curtains. Usually, the moment I wake up, I return to reality.
Do I have money? The debt won't decrease. What about the next night?
But it was different.
Your presence remained beside me. Deep in my chest, I feel terribly restless.
Usually, there's just money left behind... But you were right there next to me.
Um... What would you like to do after this?
