As Master Rodion had expected, the tavern became a little quieter. Some of those who came to the tavern only came to take food home, knowing that Allen was no longer there.
Even though it's still one day since Allen left the town, I'm already starting to miss him. I thought I could put up with this loneliness again since I've gotten older, but as Master said, I'm still a little girl who wants someone to rely on.
"Susan, are you daydreaming again?" Jack asked me.
"Ah, sorry Jack. I'll wash the dishes right away."
I replaced Allen's empty position. Every time I stood where Allen was stood, "so this is how Allen saw things before," I felt as if I saw everything Allen had ever seen whenever he was here.
Mom left me
Dad left me
After that, Brother Arthur left me
And now, Allen also left me.
Aaah, when could I overcome this loneliness? Am I not adult enough to hold my tears?
