On the first day Tinaria visited the orphanage, Keithfalt also tagged along in the carriage to give his explanations to the director. Tinaria was watching very enthusiastically the townspeople at the other side of the street.
"This is the first time I have seen the town like this."
Tinaria was very excited. Pa.s.sing throughout the town during the wedding day, she was surrounded by the people of Lidea, so it was not this kind of atmosphere. The carriage finally reached its destination in a short time. Keithfalt quickly descended from the carriage and presented his hand to Tinaria. As a member of royalty, such an escort was natural, but for some reason, Tinaria solidified in astonishment. Finally moving, the cheeks of Tinaria who timidly put her hand on top, were tainted in a rosy color.
The orphanage was located near the church right after the castle. The director employed old sisters, but with the number of orphans increasing as a result of the war, as of now the manpower was not enough. The old sister was good hearted, also Keithfalt had met her several times during his inspections.
After descending from the carriage, he went forward to greet the director and the children. Since he had to have a talk first, he left Tinaria in a separate room to explain the situation to the director and when he returned, he came across a scene where one child stared at Tinaria with eyes full of hatred and shouted.
"It was a person of Lidea who killed my father and mother!"
At his words, Keithfalt quickly stopped him by grabbing his hand that was about to throw a book he was holding.
"Hey, it was not this person who killed your parents. The war is to blame. Even our country came to kill people from Lidea. Therefore, it is wrong to cause harm just because she is a person of Lidea."
The child who was reproved glared at Tinaria with a frustrated face. Looking at Tinaria, his face turned blue, because she looked straight at his gaze, honestly facing the child.
"It is not something that can repaired with an apology. Still… I am really sorry about your parents."
At her words, seeing Tinaria lowering her head, the child made a face like he was about to cry and ran in the corridor.
"I am sorry. Amongst the children who got in recently, many of them have lost their parents in the previous war."
"I see. It may be unreasonable for someone from Lidea to work here as expected."
While the director and Keithfalt were discussing, Tinaria, who stared at the door where the child left, still wanted to do it and came to suggest.
"If I am hated by the children, I think I can help by cleaning or repairing things in a place where they can't see me. I will never let the children feel bad. Therefore, could you let me do it?"
Looking at her earnest eyes, Keithfalt gave his permission in the end.
