She liked the room thanks to Ms. Lyra

“Yes. It’s just like Mr. Takumi’s room. Though, the room next door is a waiting room for the servants. Though, it will mostly be me and Alfred using it… Doesn’t that sound interesting, Lady Liza?”

“…Like papa’s room. Oh!”

Liza looked impressed as Ms. Lyra showed her how the door was connected to another room.

Her ears were now perked up, and she was very interested.

As for the room, the servants were going to take turns using it, so that they could be close to their masters.

I suppose it was so they could stay close by, even while we were sleeping.

As for Liza’s room, we had discussed it beforehand. We thought she would not like it if our rooms were too far apart.

While it might have been better if her room was connected to my study indeed, it seemed that children like the idea of extra doors. Even if it was not quite the same as a hidden passage.

Regardless, her tails were wagging happily now.

Also, Claire’s room was also connected to an office room, and then there was another servant room next to it.

That was so her servants could take turns waiting on her.

And next to that room, there was a room where Claire stores dresses and other clothes.

They had wanted to make a wardrobe room for me as well, but I did not have that much clothes.

And I had no plans to amass a collection either. It was better to use the space for something else.

“I haven’t seen Liza look sad in quite a long time now.”

“You’re right. She spends a lot of time with Ms. Lyra recently… So even when Leo and I are not around, she seems to be fine.”

“Well, while she might not want to be completely alone right now, it is because you and Leo give her so much affection. I can see how much she trusts you two.”

Aside from Ms. Lyra, she also spent a lot of time with Tilura, the fenrirs and Ms. Gelda.

“But I think it has a lot to do with you and Tilura too.”

“Me? Well, Liza is like Tilura in a lot of ways, so I see her as a younger sister. But that is all I can do. It is not much.”

“Not at all. Especially…”

I was sure that Claire was one of the biggest reasons that Liza was able to laugh so freely now.

Especially that time when the boy threw a rock at Liza. Leo had been so angry… But it was Claire who hugged her and let her cry her eyes out. That was a turning point.

The moment when Liza first really connected with someone aside from me and Leo.

“Lady Liza. Come sit over here.”

“Huh? Okay…”

Ms. Lyra had Liza sit in front of the dresser.

“Now, excuse me. Just tell me if it tickles or is uncomfortable.”

And then Ms. Lyra took out a trimming brush from her pocket.

She then took out an ordinary brush with her other hand.

And with these two in hand, she sat down on one of the three chairs.

“How is it, Lady Liza?”

“Mmmeow…”

Liza’s tails were put on the chair between them, and then Ms. Lyra began to brush the fur.

Perhaps it was Ms. Lyra’s techniques, but Liza appeared to enjoy it.

Well, she always brushed Liza after taking a bath, so she must be used to doing it now.

“Kuuun…”

By the time Ms. Lyra switched from the trimming brush to the care brush, Leo, who had been wandering around the room, returned to us.

Apparently, she wanted to be brushed as well.

“Haha. You can be brushed later, Leo. It will take a long time if we start now.”

“I will help you. I can’t let Lyra do everything.”

“Wou…”

I petted Leo to calm her down.

If we brushed her now, we would not have any time to see the rest of the house…
