"No! Don't close your eyes!"

"I'm sorry....darling. Live on for us..."
"Create the world we all dreamed of.."

"Don't go....please...."

•••

"They're gone...they left me.... forever."

"You're not alone, En. I'm with you."

'But it's never going to be the same...'

•••

"....."

"A pleasure to meet you, my lady. My name is Albert Moriarty."

"...Enora Black."

"Yes...I wanted to deliver my condolences. May they rest in peace."

"Thank you."
'I will make sure they do. Once he's dead.'

"Ragged school?"

"Yes. Would you like to come with me?"

"Hmm. Alright."
'I wonder how are the children doing.'

•••

"Black-sama! It's been a while since we were graced by your presence."

"Please. No need for that. How are the children?"

"They were so sad about what happened...And they miss you dearly."

"I see. I suppose it's only fair I make up for it."

•••

"What?"

"I..honestly didn't expect you to be familiar with a ragged school."

"We used to come here frequently. The children like it when I read books to them."

'So you're not so cold after all.'

•••

"Onee-chan! We missed you!"

"I missed you too. How have you been?"

"...Sad..we won't get to see them anymore..."

"I'm sad too. But we know they're somewhere better now, don't we?"

"Yes.."

"Now let's read you guys a book. What do you want this one to be about?"

•••

"...!"

"Oh! I'm so sorry miss, are you okay?!"

"I'm fine, no need for the fuss."

"I'm really sorry!"

"...."
"What's your name?"

"...!"
"I...I am Louis."

'He's sick... Heart disease, I suppose."
"I see. Nice to meet you Louis."

"Wait! Miss, what's your name?!"

"Be careful not to run around too much. It will worsen your health."

"Miss..!"
'How did she know?!'

•••

"Next time you go to the ragged school, tell me."

"I will remember to do so."

'The older brother.... there's something about him...'

•••

"Black-sama! You came again! The children will be overjoyed!"

'...Black...'

"No need for all that, Annalise-san. Ezio oji-san is sending his greeting."

"Oh..! Thank you so much, you're too kind."

'Interesting.'

•••

"Albert."

"Yes? What's wrong?"

"I heard that your father will be adopting those two."
'Although not for noble reasons.'

"....Yes."

"When the time comes, don't hesitate."

"Wha-?!"

"The older will help you. You will understand later on."

"If you need help with anything, I don't need to say that I'm available at any time."

"...I will remember that, thank you."

•••

"Moriarty family's first son, Albert James Moriarty, and these are my little brothers. William James Moriarty, and Louis James Moriarty."

"It's the Moriarty children! Hurry up and bring a doctor!"

•••

"Hmm. They were able to pull it through after all."

"No doubt the genius' plan."

"You don't sound surprised."

"Why would I? I knew this would happen. He had a certain glint in his eyes. He's not ordinary."

•••

"I will be going to Italy with Ezio."

"..."

"Enora-sama...."

"Nora..."

"Don't go looking so surprised, I need to get away from this country for a while. And he proposed this."

"When will you be back?"

"....."
"I... don't know when, but I promise that I will come back. Wait for me."
