"W-what?"
Unknowingly Sophia's face started to become bright red.
"Hm? Are you okay?"
Noticing her slight change in demeanor, I tilted my head to the side.
There was something about her behavior.
It didn't seem like I was the only one who noticed this as Leopold worriedly placed his hand on Sophia's forehead.
"Sophia dear, are you okay?"
"S..stop."
Smacking Leopold's hand away, Sophia stuttered as she looked at me.
"It can't be...it..."
'Hold on…'
Meeting her gaze, I suddenly had a strange thought inside of my mind.
'That can't be...'
I quickly shook my head, trying to deny such a thought.
It just couldn't be…or rather, I wanted to not believe in the thought.
It was then that Sophia once again spoke up.
"Y..you're Ren Dover, right?"
As she spoke up, I managed to pick up a slight tremble in her voice.
Letting out a small sigh, I nodded my head.
