(1) its a war from now on!

"Oh, Hari! It's so pretty!"

Mrs Ernst who looked at me in front of the mirror and liked it squaled like a girl. I even turned round and round in my seat in return for the enthusiastic cheers.

"Whoa! My daughter is pretty and lovely, no matter what she wears!"

Ehe, I'm a little… embarrased. When I was young, I was shorter than my peers, and I was too thin so.

You are so angelic that I cannot think you're the mother of that ugly brother!

"I like everything, how about you, what are you going to do?"

The clothes I'm wearing right now were like princess dresses.

In a white dress with a lot of frills, the yellow ribbon tied behind his back was inflated to the fullest, showing off the cuteness.

Well. The clothes are fabolous, so it

certainly seems that I look a little cuter.

Now, I was making a impression that I wasn't looking so good, but since I was older, I used to listen to compliment words. Ugh. Suddenly I'm a little sorry again.

How hard I've been managing my body shape and appearance! But now I'm

back as a little kid like this! Ugh, I want to go back!

"Yeah? you don't like it?"

Ah. It wasn't that, but I thought a little differently.

"No, I like it too."

Today Mrs. Ernst was calling a dress maker into the mansion to buy me new clothes.

Looking at the clothes that filled the room, it seemed that all the children's clothes were new, and mostly the old clothes were wiped out.

Thanks to that, I was playing a dolls, that I have to wore and took off dozens of clothes from lunch today to now.

"Then I'll buy all of it!"

Ernst's wife claimed and laughed wide. I wanted to say that I didn't need so much clothes, but I just smiled at her bright face.

"Its been a while since I'm seeing Melissa smiling so brightly."

Mrs. Ernst picked up my clothes and moved to the room next door with the dress maker. This time, she was to

choose the lining of the winter coat.

When I lifted my head, Duke Ernst came to my side. He was staring at the back of his wife, who was going out.

"Thank you. It's thanks to you."

It wasn't until then the Ernst's face brightened that I called her "Mom." I stayed a bit, but I hid my mind and told Duke Ernst.

"If mom laughs, I'm happy too."

"Hari."

He said, the eyes of Duke Ernst quickly became murky. Oh, this uncle. I didn't know when I was young, but he was very emotional.

He just tearing all of his tears out of this.

Besides, it's because uncle's age is similar to Eugene's 20 years later, it seemed like a bit of goose bumps on my body to see him crying with a face that resembled Eugene, who didn't seem to get a drop of blood even though he was stabbed.

"If you have anything you want, tell me everything. Dad will buy you everything."

Mister. Thanks a lot, but it's not good for kids, isn't it?

"None is pretty!"

Just then, a sound that can stabbed a earmuffs came from the door. He's finally here. He came and turned his head to me.

"It's not pretty, not pretty! Nothing! Not pretty!"

It was the second brother, Cabel, who was shouting with a dignified position in front of the open door. He was clenching his fist

and staring at me.

"Do you know that you can't become Arina even if you're wearing that? Don't be funny!"

"Cabel!"

Duke Ernst, who was next to me, shouted for the second. Cabel paused for a while, but soon began to stared again toward me who standing next to him.

I didn't know how he will come to me in the presence of the Duke Ernst and behave badly, but in fact, this behavior of Cabel was within my prediction.

He would soon behaving like this though, because I called the Ernst couple in front of the three brothers as 'Mom and Dad' and stimulated them.

He opened hid mouth again with his face tight as if he couldn't stand it, but it was faster for me to act.

"Dad."

I whispered a little, pulling the cuffs of Duke Ernst with my hands.

"I'm fine."

I didn't forget to smile at him. In this case, this poor-looking appearance also helped me. Just by making a little bit of a

dead face, I was seem to be with mercy.

"Hari! What are you talking about, it's not fine at all!"

As expected, Duke Ernst was startled and started to appease me. When I had a dark face, like I couldn't seem to know what to do, his conscience was stabbed.

"Cabel! Come on. You should apologize."

So, if I could give him those burns in this dream, it would enough.

"Hey! It's my dad! Don't call him dad at your will!"

Well, it wasn't that I wasn't guessing the minds of the kids, but I wasn't too sorry for that, because there was something I had done to you.

Eventually, the second brother wrangled by Duke Ernst and disappeared for

a deep conversation between the two. After that I left the room to return

to my room.

Duk!

But as soon as I stepped out of the hall, someone stepped on me. I just fell down on the floor without seeing it.

"You're really irritable."

This time it was the third brother. Erich was quietly expressing the anger he had in his heart, unlike the second Cabel, his blue eyes had sharp emotions in the eyes.

Don't just standing there!

"Hmph"

I have a painful knee on the floor, so I grimace for a while.

"Even if you don't do this and you do such childish things, it won't change fact that we gonna live with each other."

Pang!

The flames flashed between the third brother pupil and my eyes in the air. I'm not like I was!

"Say something again."

Again, a fire broke out between Erich and me.

"What's going on?"

Mrs. Ernst, who was in the next room, plung her head through the door. At that moment, Erich's eyes were embarrassed.

I have no intention of making a lot of trouble, but should I be afraid because of something that was not my fault?

"Um"

"Hari fell down with her feet folded. You have to be careful."

said Eugene, who appeared suddenly.

"Now, hold my hand and get up."

I waited silently, looking at my hand in front of me. As Mrs. Ernst was watching, he was playing a good brother again, but unlike Eugene's friendly voice, Eugene's face back to Mrs. Ernst was cold.

I looked at his hand for a moment and then slowly extended my hand. Then I smiled and caught his hand.

"Thank you, brother."

Do you think acting can only be done by you? Pretend to be in good term and pretend to be a good brother, I can do it too!

I close my eyes and maybe for the first time as a 7 year old Hari, I smile widely. But for some reason, at the very moment, Eugene hardened like a stone in his place.

What is this reaction again?

I was puzzled, but anyway, conscious of Mrs. Ernst behind Eugene, I hold his hand with a smile and raised my body.

But at that very moment, Eugene's hand, which I grasped with strength, let go, and wasn't it to soon to shake my hand with percussion?

No, what is this! What? is this bothering you? Did you do it on purpose now? Did you purposely let me fall? You were such a childish child!

"Oh, Hari!"

Mrs. Ernst, who saw me fall backwards, walked fast towards me. I shed the person in front of me with a booty on.

Oddly enough, Eugene finally looked at me and frustrated as if he had become sober, and then reached out to me again. What he said next was really ridiculous for me.

"You should have held my hand well. Mother, I'm going to tell the maid to

give Hari more rice for meal. Now I see it, she's too weak."

I stood up at once.

"That's right. I'm worried that Hari is so fragile. Maybe I should give her medicine. It's winter."

"It will not be bad either."

Of course, Eugene wouldn't be agree to give me medicine for my sake.

It was clear that young children, usually about this age, hate taking medicine rather, so he do it on a whim to make me stout.

Evidence is that I and my brother, Erich, used up all the childish thing so I had to avoid cold medicine last time in the past, but I wasn't really a 7-year-old child.

There is no way to avoid the medicine that the Ernst give. Should I use this to take

care of myself?

Even so, this body is so sluggish that the limbs are like branches. Yes, my condition would be a little better than now if I had a

bite of medicine.

Then I can fight those ugly guys more efficiently….

Ugh. Thinking of this, I think I'm really is a little sly. It was evidence when I using my head in this way.

"Then, let's go out when the day is warmed up. The whole family!"

Oh. Oh. The cold aura that was pushed

toward me somewhere made me stiff.

Mrs. Ernst was scattering bright smiles like spring sunlight, but the two behind her weren't.

Well, there. I think Eugene and Erich are staring at me horribly again.

Mrs. Ernst seems to feel happy so much, that she did not notice it as she laughs happily until the end and go back to her room to choose the cloth.

"Now I see you have some talent, too."

Shortly thereafter, an eerie voice poked into my eardrum. The next moment, I faced a black eye stained with cold-forged anger.

From the beginning, Eugene was incredibly mature as a 12-year-old child, but now I've never seen that expression at that age.

He was expressing deep hatred that was not easy to overcome.

"Family?"

The sharp cynics sharpened the air.

"Never will be."

Then Eugene went go down the stairs after passing through me like that, as he originally want to go down the stairs.

Ugh. I, who remained alone, stood there and sighed. It turns out that the kids are definitely kids.

I'm too old to be hurt by the bad news of children like that now, unfortunately or fortunately. Ugh, uh, wait…Rather, I think I'm actually hurting myself more now.

Ugh. Anyway, after hearing such direct criticism for so long, it was a little new, but that was it. That was the past I went through while I was living with Brothers.

As I got older, I became more and more

sophisticated. This is rather cute compared to bullying. Yes, it's cute.

Okay. It's pretty cute. I quietly headed to my room, sweeping the knee I had put on the floor when I fell earlier. Ah, I think this is going to bruise on my knees.

The third brother, the younger one is careless. You shouldn't be vigilant wherever you go. Sweet.

With that thought in mind, I walked down the hall. Then, at the end, turn the visible doorknob and I open it. A pink-covered room appeared.

Ugh, I hate this childish pink!
