I Love My Family But They Abandoned Me
Money
Leticia Leroy
I was born this way not because I wanted to… I couldn’t choose to be born with or without abilities…
Narrator
She was sad, but no one understood how she felt. And she couldn’t say anything because she felt like she was to blame for all of this.
Leticia Leroy
Yes, It’s my fault.
Narrator
Leticia bit her lips and curled up further
Leticia Leroy
If I had the ability, none of this would have happened.
Narrator
Mary, who was watching her from behind, spoke cautiously.
Mary
You may already have it, Miss. Maybe you just can’t see it.
Leticia Leroy
You think so?
Narrator
It didn’t occur to her to think that far, and Mary gave her a troubled look and fumbled with her words. Leticia couldn’t help but chuckle at the sight.
Leticia Leroy
How is your brother, Mary?
Narrator
Mary, who paused for a moment, answered with a bitter look on her face.
Mary
He doesn’t get better or worse. They say to use another medicine, but it’s too expensive...
Narrator
Leticia, who was quietly listening to Mary’s words, went over to the dressing table. Mary, who noticed that she was picking up the most expensive jewelry, grabbed Leticia’s arm.
Mary
The Marquis will be very angry if he finds out.
Leticia Leroy
It’s alright.
Mary
I’ll take your sincerity, Miss.
Narrator
Last time Leticia was scolded badly by the Marquis for something similar. So Mary shook her head more firmly and refused.
Mary
It really is fine, Miss.
Narrator
Mary put the trinket in Leticia’s hand back in place and poured the tea. But, Leticia’s eyes were still on the trinket.
Mary
I wish money would fall from the sky.
Mary
Then I’ll pick it up right away.
Narrator
Leticia smiled, realizing the joke was meant to change the subject.
