A few hours later...

It’s evening already.

Cecily headed out into the garden, where the flowers were dyed in the setting sun. According to Cecily’s original plan, Zeke and Sewell would be clashing mugs of beer together in celebration about now, with their arms over each other’s shoulders. Unfortunately, things didn’t always go to plan.

Sewell was inside preparing dinner. Greta was awful at any and all household chores, so the house was kept up by Sewell. He had suggested that they enjoy a dinner, just the two of them, and Cecily couldn’t refuse. If she had invited Zeke to sit at the dinner table with them, she was certain her father would lose his composure once again.

“I can’t give up just yet. I’ve still got tomorrow and the day after too!”

Cecily clenched both fists in a show of resolve. Thanks to the speedy journey here, they had a lot more time in the village. There was still plenty of time to bring Sewell around.

In the next moment, Cecily heard the crunching of gravel from the road behind the garden. Looking up, she saw Zeke.

“You there, Cecily?”

“Zeke!”

As Cecily appeared, Zeke’s expression lightened in relief.

“I thought I heard your voice, so I came this way. I was with Al and the others learning about the village. They showed us where they grow their herbs and where they concoct their potions. It was really fascinating.”

Cecily listened in silence.

“As for tonight, we’ll be staying at Marjorika’s house. I’ll be sleeping in the room in the corner, on the right.”

“I see. Marjorika’s house, huh...?”

Marjorika was an old woman in the village who was over one hundred years old. She was kind to all, and a hugely central figure in the witch village. Marjorika always got news about the inhabitants of the village before anyone else, and so she had perhaps made this offer to Zeke, knowing that Sewell hadn’t accepted him.

“So don’t worry about me, Cecily.”

Cecily smiled weakly as she looked at her lover.

“I’m sorry, Zeke.”

“Hmm? Why are you apologizing?”

Zeke was truly kind to act as if this were nothing. However, Cecily couldn’t do the same.

“Because I didn’t realize dad would reject you that strongly. You came all this way and into my home... I’m so sorry.”

Cecily bowed her head in apology. Zeke had found time in his busy life to come all this way. If she were in Zeke’s position, she would have felt anger towards this father who wouldn’t accept him.

I heard that some couples break up because they can’t get their parents to accept and understand them.

The more Cecily dwelled on their situation, the more fear welled up within her.

Zeke placed a reassuring hand upon Cecily’s quivering head.

“Cecily, you don’t need to think that.”

“But...”

“The reason why father...Mr. Sewell is so against our marriage is because he loves you and is worried about you. Right?”

Cecily’s voice caught in her throat.

“I’m the one who should apologize. I was the one who couldn’t control myself and chose to hold your hand. I was the one who brought up marriage right from the beginning, without considering how your father would feel.
