In My Next Life I'll Win the Heart of the Male Lead
There's nothing wrong with Adelaide's life. There's nothing wrong with being cheated on. After all, half of marriages end in divorce and most end from infidelity. There's nothing wrong with getting addicted to an otome game. After all, everybody has something they're obsessed with. There's nothing wrong with reincarnating as the villainess instead of the heroine. After all, the villainess is richer and more powerful. There's nothing wrong with the villainess chasing after one of the love interests. After all, it's not like he's the canon route. There's nothing wrong with Ophelia's life.
Flireflies and Worms
"Woooooowwww...!"
May gazes up in awe at the sky above.
I chuckle to myself as I continue working, sawing lumber alongside Lucas.
I can't blame the girl for her enthusiasm, really.
After all, there is quite a display going on above our heads this evening.
Tiny lightning bugs.
Little, shimmering specks of green light flutter in the darkness, rising into the night air as if dancing in the cold winter winds.
May raises a hand up, a determined look in her eyes as she strains to touch the flying lights.
It is just so close, too...
Just...so close...!
One of the bugs flies lower than the others, and she takes a leap after it, landing in the soft dirt and wet grass, where it disappears. "Wait...!"
The child scrambles to her knees and starts to dig the ground, desperately seeking for the source of the glow.
