epilogue 1

When she first had her own child, Elisha was full of her hopes. But she had faint fears and worries within her.

'Who is the child in the belly?'

Elisha's first child was different from when she had Lucerne's child in her previous life.

'Astina.'

A child of her own, whom she had only held twice in her previous life. She waited anxiously for her lovely daughter, Astina. However, the time when she had children was different.

She hadn't taken birth control pills, so she expected, but…….

'I'll love you even if it's not Astina, but I miss you.'

But she wonders, if she's not Astina, then she's a bad mother to the kid in her belly? As Elisha thought about it, there were many times when she felt depressed.

'I'm happy yet sad, I'm excited yet afraid.'

Elisha was originally on the side of motherly love. So, pity and love grew in her heart for her child already.

Lucerne was careful throughout Elisha's pregnancy that she would fly away or get hurt if she blew. But Lucerne couldn't help but shed tears as Elisha thought of Astina.

“It will be fine. If Astina doesn't come this time, we have a lot of opportunities.”

Lucerne had long placated Elisha.

Around that time, Elisha had frequent nightmares. Previously, Elisha could not sleep deeply next to Lucerne. She was afraid that even if she talked in her sleep, she would stumble.

Elisha often had nightmares, perhaps because her body and mind were at ease now.

“Lucerne, they are taking Astina. My child, Astina…….”

It was mainly her dream when her Astina was taken away. When Elisha felt that way, she cried and hugged Lucerne.

“Elisha. I'm by your side, don't worry about anything…….”

At such times, Lucerne took care of Elisha for a long time.

After that time, around the time of the birth of her first child, Elisha stopped waking up screaming at dawn.

Her first child was her son, not the daughter Elisha had been waiting for.

She said it was two or three years from now when Elisha gave birth to her daughter. So the timing wasn't right. So she had prepared for it in her heart.

“Hey, it's pretty, but, it's lovely, but Astina…….”

Elisha's excitement at seeing her child, her longing for Astina, and her exhausted heart when she had just given birth made her weep.

The midwives, doctors, and healing priests on standby were terrified.

“How much did you want to have a daughter?”

“No, it's the first time I've seen someone cry like that after giving birth to a deficit in the family.”

Elisha's act of crying out loud that her child was a daughter, not a son, had been talked about by her servants for a long time.

The baby boy was named Ires. He was an intelligent, yet very cute and charming child.

It wasn't even a child with Ramun as prophecy, let alone Lucerne, it was a pretty girl with blonde hair and blue eyes who looked just like Elisha. Young Ires was often asked if she was a daughter.

“Baby, our good Ires.”

Even though Elisha lived in her happiness raising her Ires, she couldn't let go of a little anxiety.

Finally, two years later, Elisha was pregnant with her second child. It was the same time as having her Astina in her previous life.

And the child born to her was the daughter Elisha had been waiting for so long.

“Astina.”

As soon as she held her child, Elisha broke down in her tears. Alas, yes. You are back My Astina came back.

After many years, Elisha finally held her second child, Astina, in her arms. Elisha's worries and longings were over.
