was more open to us? 

I wondered at the same time.

Father stared at me without changing his expression.

I took a deep breath and answered confidently, puffing out my chest.

“Yes, I am sorry for worrying you.
I myself was to seeing mother's weakening day by day that for a time my heart was in a state of despair.
However, I realized that this alone would not solve anything.
I know that I can be of help to you by improving myself.
Please take care of the of the tutor matter .”

“I understood.
If that your wish , it should be fine.
I will make arrangements immediately.
Now, what is the second thing?”

Hearing my words, Rainer showed a expression of relief for a moment, but then he immediately returned to his blank expression and asked the next question.

” The second thing I would like to ask is for you to prepare funds for me personally to spend as I please.

“…..
for what?'

The weight of his voice grows stronger, and the air in the Oval Office changes with a single word from him .

There is a heavy atmosphere in the room.

'While going through the various materials in the library , I found a few that might make useful products.
I intend to try to make them.”

“The fund provider would normally have materials to submit to us.
Are you asking to just provide funding without that?:

”Yes, as you say.
This time, I would like you to invest myself.
I am shamelessly asking you of it because I know that you would believe in your son's talent.”

:This is a gamble.
If you are right and you sure of getting the money, I should prepare the documents.:

However, even if we prepare the documents, it would most likely take a long time.

Considering my mother health , I probably don't have much time.

Therefore, I decided to take a risk.

Sometimes enthusiasm can move people, especially if it is between a parent and a child.

I assume that we have connection, but I am sure that my father would agree to that because he said something about me as if he had been watching.

Upon hearing my words, Father wrinkled his brow and rubbed the wrinkle with the thumb and forefinger of his right hand.

I watched his face as if I devouring it.

When he noticed my gaze, he let out a small sigh.

“I understand …….
I'll give you some money to you.
Since you said 'useful commodity,' you must be thinking of doing some business, right? Funds for business are too much for a child, but if you're going to be so generous, you might as well put them to good use.”

” I won't let you down “

Father seems to be in a slightly better mood than he was immediately after I entering the Oval Office.

Can i give him one more push?

“I'm sure I'll live up to your expectations.”

“What is it? If you're talking about funds, I can't give any more .”

“No, it's not that.
I am a little disappointed that Mel and I have not been able to talk much with father.
If you don't mind, I was wondering if we could have breakfast or dinner together?”

At the word “Mel,” Rainer's face twitched.

I'll think about it…….
By the way, are you calling Meldy 'Mel'?”

“ Yes, I do.
Mel told me to call her that because that's what mother calls her , and she asked me to call her like that as well.”

“Well, ……, is that all? If yes , you can leave now.”

The father closed his eyes and seemed to be thinking about something for a moment.

I watched him as I left the office,

As I closed the door, I noticed that Father and Garn were talking about something, but I left the room and went to the library .

Good, that went better than I thought .
Now that I have the money for the army, I guess i just need to find a merchant.

Negotiations with my father had gone better than I had imagined, and I had forgotten something .

I promised Mel that I would read her a picture book: ……

A few moments later, the door to the study was opened .

I looked up to see Mel standing there, half-crying, with a terrible look on her face.

At that moment, I remembered that I had forgotten my promise.

“Mel, , I am Sorry …….”

“You're a liar! “

I tried to apologize, but as if to shuting my words, Mel came crying and hugging me.

She was crying so hard as she hit me with punch that didn't hurt.

I held her in my arms and clammed her, murmuring, “I'm sorry, Mel.:

Needless to say, I was made to read a picture book to Mel until she stopped crying.
