[POV Iona]
"Iona dear."
On my way out, my mother handed me a piece of paper that Charles had given me.
"Please don't forget to give it to Eucharlouch-sama."
She reminded me of this.
Needless to say, I had to hand it to Charles.
I hand over the paper to Charles again. "As expected of Iona's mother. She's very diligent." As he said this, he moved his hand on his desk and quickly wrote down his schedule. And he immediately hands it to me. "Please tell your mother that I will be visiting you on this date and time." "Understood."
"Iona. I don't think there's any way you could make a mistake, but if you had it in writing, you wouldn't have to bother remembering it." Thus, he easily set a date to visit my home. The day when he would visit my parents' house was not far away.
Then the appointed day arrived. "We have been expecting you, Lord Eucharlouch." My mother, the head of the family, welcomes Charles. The whole family was gathered at the entrance. There are four of us: my mother, who is the head of the family, my father, my younger sister, and me. "Welcome to our home. I am Iola Cucorose, the head of the family." My mother greeted him once again. "Thank you for inviting me." Charles also responded with a smile.
"It's a pleasure to meet you, I'm Noel, Iona's father."
Although not as strong as Charles, my father, who has a thin form, greets him.
It's an absolute secret to Charles that one of the reasons why I judged him harshly on his effeminate appearance is because of my father who married into our family.
"It's an honor to be here. I've been looking forward to today." I guess he wasn't lying when he said he was curious about my family. "Welcome, Lord Eucharlouch."
"Good afternoon."
He smiles softly and focuses his gaze on my sister.
"You're Iona's younger sister, is that correct?"
"Yes, my name is Riona."
My sister, who was clever for her age, nodded.
"You have a beautiful mother and sister. You are going to grow up being just as beautiful in the future."
He seemed to be very accustomed to dealing with children. I couldn't help but feel that way.
"Do you like children, Lord Eucharlouch?"
My mother asked.
"Yes, I have a niece who is adorable."
Partly because it wasn't an official occasion, he seemed to consciously use "ore" in the first person. In this way, Charles's visit to our Cucorose family began in a very peaceful manner.
