“Yes, Young Duke Maya. I will write a letter too!”

I waved my hand to Maya.

Eventually, Maya’s carriage slowly moved away.

I wanted to be the one to protect this kindergarten until the very end.

So I saw the other children leaving in their carriages.

“Goodbye, Emir!”

“Yes! Goodbye to the Princess and Prince!”

Unlike when they cried while reading the rolling paper earlier, Nicholas and Ninaina both smiled brightly and greeted me and left.

“Miss Emir, let’s go play with the fairy later!”

“Send me a letter too, Emir! Don’t leave me!”

Alice approached me and whispered to me, and quickly got into the carriage, and Cedric shouted to me just before he left.

The carriage with the two of them left leisurely on their way.

Finally, Jake.

Jake ran to me, hugged me, and muttered.

“Mir, won’t you come with me? It’s two days later that I go to the magic tower, so I have a lot of time to play with Mir today.”

“What? Oh, I want to stay here a little longer. Go back to the mansion first. I’ll go later!”

Jake paused for a moment at my words, then nodded his head.

“Yes, I got it. I’ll wait for you at the mansion. Come quickly, Mir.”

“Okay, Jay.”

Jake went to his carriage and drove home.

Eventually, I was standing in front of the quiet kindergarten.

‘It’s very…… quiet.’

The fountain where the water no longer flows, and you can not even hear birds chirping around.

‘It’s like a painting or a photograph, time seems to have stopped in an instant.’

If it hadn’t been for the cold wind that brushed my cheeks, I might have mistakenly thought that time had stopped, even for a moment.

At that time, workers dispatched from the Imperial Palace were coming to the kindergarten.

Perhaps they are trying to organize the furniture inside the kindergarten.

“Miss, should we leave soon? It has been more than 30 minutes since the others left.”

“…… !”

I was surprised to hear the driver’s voice.

It seems like I didn’t do anything and just wandered around the kindergarten. That much time has passed already?

“Okay. Let’s go.”

I got on the carriage.

The scenery outside the window somehow evoked a subtle sentiment.

‘That’s interesting. It’s no different than usual.’

But if there’s one difference…….

‘It must mean that I will no longer have to come here.’

Then the coachman shouted.

“Miss, we’re departing!”

“…… wait!”

Without realizing it, as soon as I heard that voice, I thought, ‘just one last time’.

The coachman asked, puzzled.

“What?”

“…… sorry. I’ll get off for a second. Come to think of it, I think I left something behind!”

Then I jumped out of the carriage and ran quickly into the kindergarten.

“Gasp, gasp…….”

It was rare for me to run like this, so I was out of breath.

“…….”

When I finally got to the kindergarten, I was faced with the empty interior where most of the furniture had already disappeared.

An empty classroom with no desks, chairs, bookshelves or anything left.

“Lady Saeron? Why are you still here? They are moving the objects, you may be injured. Hurry up and get away.”

Several workers who recognized me spoke to me.

At the same time, the coachman who followed me from behind asked a question.

“Miss, did you find what you left behind?”

“…… Ah, that.”

It was just an excuse that I have something I left behind.

But now I realized.

It seems that I have left behind lingering attachments here.

“…… yes I found it. So now we can really go back.”

Lingering attachments for the time we spent happily here.

The memories with 6 children.

‘It’s really over. Now I understand.’

I trudged and got back into the carriage.

As soon as I leaned against the backrest, it felt like my whole body was loosening up.

‘Thank god. Because I can be with them for the last time here.’

Soon after, the carriage moved and a rattling sound was heard.

Was it because the sound felt like a lullaby?

Without realizing it, I leaned my head on the windowsill and fell asleep.

* * *

‘We have arrived, Miss!’

Perhaps because I hadn’t woken up yet, I could hear the nanny’s voice faintly waking me up.

“Oh, Miss, we’ve come all the way to the Imperial Palace. Come on, get up!”

…… huh? what?

Imperial palace?

I must have been riding the carriage back to my house, not the Imperial Palace?

Then the nanny’s loud cry was heard again.

“Oh dear, the Princess will be waiting for you, miss! You decided to prepare for the debutante together with the Princess.”

Debutante?

As soon as I heard that word, I was immediately awakened, and at the same time, my eyes were wide open.

I muttered hazyly.

“…… Are we here already, nanny?”

“It is. Come on, get off. Oops, the ribbon is messed up. I’ll put it back for you again.”

The person in front of me was a nanny who looked 10 years older than I remembered when I was in kindergarten.

‘Of course it is. It’s been 12 years since I graduated kindergarten…….’

I took a deep breath, and then the dream and reality finally found their places.
