Please, Come in.
So... Why do I call you to my office, do you know?
Yes, about your appearance in the library last night.
The kids who got up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom reported to me.
Said that you talked to someone in the library.
Do you have anything to say to me?
I see. So, that is,
those children misheard your reading as you were talking to someone.
Then, can you tell me what you were reading?
Went out of your room in the middle of the night,
to the dim library with candles lit,
enjoyed too much, even accidentally reading it out loud,
that your favourite book.
Please let me read it as well.
Ah~ that book.
It's my favourite, too.
While you slept,
I used to read it to you.
I have memorised almost all.
Over and over again.
However, in the Sleeping Princess story that I know of,
it doesn't have these lines...
"Ollie. To be honest, I'm here to take you away." Words like that.
Don't be afraid. It doesn't matter, I'm not angry.
I won't get angry at lies told by uninformed children. I'm not that narrow-minded adult.
Groo came to the library, didn't he?
To get you out of here.
He helped you wake up from a 25-year sleep,
so he deeply believes that he is your prince.
To young ladies,
What does he look like?
Dazzling blonde hair, strong training body and decent demeanours.
Do you want to be taken by him?
However,
you turned him down and stayed here.
That makes me happy.
But,
your thought of leaving the orphanage as soon as possible,
more or less hurts me.
Are you angry?
Yesterday, I did something that scared you.
Was the agreement of reconciliation a lie?
Actually,
yesterday,
I was the one who was on night duty.
It was a secret meeting with a man, but you were unguarded.
Or...
Did you let me notice it on purpose?
To show it to me?
OK.
That's not true.
I hope you planned like that.
You're sincerely trying to hide everything from me.
Just like you didn't tell me about the map Pastor gave you.
You didn't plan to tell me about the meeting with Groo either.
Why do you want to hide everything from me?
Do you hate being in the orphanage that much?
Or... Do you hate me so much that you want to run away?
In that case,
I'll have to lock you up.
I can't help it.
There's nothing I can do.
Just bear with it for two or three days.
When you're calm enough to listen to me...
I'll let you out.
To avoid you being bored, I allow you to take some books in.
Good girl, please behave.
Don't make much noise, please. The children will be scared.
That's right.
What a good girl.
Don't worry.
If you reflect on yourself well,
I'll let you out immediately.
You understand, don't you?
All these things I do... are just to protect you.
