[FF7] Those things after marriage

Esther was back to health the next month after waking up.During this time she experienced things like a stormy roar from her mother and silent staring attacks from her father.And the fancy attacks of the younger brothers called reprimands are actually for profit.

Perhaps because of Xenovia in her body, she felt much stronger than before, and some of the previous minor problems of 'occupational diseases' such as neck pain and shoulder stiffness disappeared.The body leaves lightly.

If she didn't know what Jenova was, she would have wanted a health-enhancing recipe like Amway in the world.

After all, the feeling of being as light as a swallow without disease and pain is really comfortable.Walking with Sephiroth didn't have to stop and go anymore, although it was a little strenuous, she was able to keep up with his pace.Although Sephiroth deliberately slowed down or stopped to wait for her in consideration of her, it was also romantic...but compared to this little romance, she wanted to walk side by side with him.

Esther often stands on the hill not far from the house to look at Midgar in the distance.She felt that it looked more and more like a steel cage——she really wondered what kind of perseverance she had lived in that cage for five years.

But thinking about it another way, if she hadn't lived there for five years, she probably wouldn't have known Sephiroth and married him.

——Perhaps this is the arrangement of the planet.

Therefore, being able to live a leisurely and relaxed life with Sephiroth as she is now, Esther feels that she is still very grateful for those five years.

After Sephiroth 'retired' from Shinra, he became a throwaway boss.In addition to helping Shinra Company train special forces for a fee, he also took on some jobs to help people train senior bodyguards, which was very rewarding.

Together with his previous savings, it is enough for them to live comfortably in this life.

as for them now

The place where he lived, Sephiroth's original intention was to build a botanical garden.However, Lance felt that building a botanical garden alone was too wasteful, and suggested that Sephiroth simply expand it into a multi-functional recuperation center.At that time, they will live in the second half, and the guests will live in the first half. It will be a good thing to kill two birds with one stone and get money even if the two have nothing to do with each other.

Seeing Lance's enthusiasm, Sephiroth handed over the matter to him as kindly as possible—afterwards, Heda laughed at him, saying that he was in a cocoon.

After finally getting out of the sea of ​​suffering, he jumped into the wolf's den again.

Simply born to work hard.

But because of this, Sephiroth, the hands-off boss, lived very comfortably.

The daily routine is to accompany Esther.

Take a walk or read a book, and occasionally teach her a few tricks to deal with people.

Although he is enough to protect her, there will always be times when they are not together like four years ago.No matter how strong he is at this time, it's not as good as Esther becoming stronger herself.Especially now that she has Jenova in her body, she no longer has to work so hard to build the foundation from scratch.

It's just a martial arts instruction between the two, which in other people's eyes can be said to be irrelevant.

Sephiroth, who is usually called the devil's coach, is completely Mr. Soft when facing Esther.

If you are tired and want to rest, if you are thirsty and want to drink juice, even if you really can't hit Sephiroth, let him stand still and let yourself hit him...everything.

Belia only watched it twice before expressing that she couldn't watch it anymore.

I don't know if it's because I can't bear to see the former hero turned into a foolish husband, or because I can't bear to see these two people's show of affection so aboveboard hurting her, a single person.

After she was free, Esther began to delve into cooking.

She is indeed not good at cooking, but hard work can make up for it.I didn't practice before because I didn't have time, and I just had dinner at home, so I didn't feel the need to come to learn it.But now that she has time and someone who wants to make delicious food, she naturally picked up this skill that she had almost forgotten.

Anyway, there are many friends, and the practice items are not afraid of being wasted.

At this point, Esther began her long-term occupation of the kitchen as a "cook master" career.

Although those movements startled both Sephiroth and Lance, Esther never tired of it.

She never knew that cooking is actually a fun thing.

Releasing the task of earning money to support her family, she began to dig out the joys and joys of daily life.

In addition to the recent obsession with cooking, there is also planting flowers with Alice.When she is not around the stove, she spends most of her time in the flower garden with Alice. Watching the green seedlings grow vigorously in her own hands is also a very fulfilling thing.

When Sephiroth came back as a coach at night, the two of them started to sticky and sticky.

Esther's life has become so full.

After her lovely younger sister Erin came back from her hometown, she became Erin's teacher part-time, and her life became more colorful.

After a long period of culinary assault, Esther's culinary skills have also improved a lot.Although he is not yet a culinary master, he can cook a few dishes that everyone will praise.

Their days are becoming more and more life-like, and those dangers and excitements are getting farther and farther away from them.

It has not appeared for a long time, and the image of the hero Sephiroth has gradually faded out of people's sight-human beings are forgetful creatures.And time will accelerate the speed of forgetting.

So he, the former hero, is really 'retired' now.

From the Shinra company, but also from people's memories.

Later, the children from the Katerina Orphanage also came here to help. The children Esther took care of had grown up and began to take care of their younger siblings just like Esther took care of them, and they also paid for part of the orphanage. expenses.

Aunt Lin Ni is getting old, her energy and physical strength are not as good as before, and now she can only do some leisurely work.

Esther made a special trip to meet this female side that she had always admired.Although she looked much older, her eyes were still as firm and gentle as before.

"I'm relieved to see you standing here safely and securely." The elderly lady smiled slightly, and the lines around her eyes and lips curved softly with her smile.

She is no longer beautiful, but still beautiful.

Esther also wants to be like her. When she gets old, she will still be an old lady who makes people feel beautiful from the bottom of her heart.

But that will probably be a long, long time away.

After all, she also has Jenova in her body. If it is a "natural aging" without disease and pain, she is probably much slower than ordinary people.But this is also good, so that she can grow old slowly with Sephiroth and finish this long life.

Instead of leaving him alone halfway.

He is so afraid of loneliness, how could she be willing to leave him alone.

"By the way, are you teaching your sister to read?" Before leaving, the old man Lin Ni suddenly said as if thinking of something, "If it's convenient, why don't the children in the academy study together? Don't ask them It's good to learn, but if you learn more knowledge, you can help them one day, right?"

"Eh?"

At night, Esther was lying on the bed hugging the pillow and looking at the silver-haired man who was wiping his hair and walking towards her after taking a shower, and said:

"Sephiroth."

"what?"

"Aunt Lin Ni said she wanted to ask me to teach the children in the orphanage."

"That's good."

Sephiroth smiled when he heard this, sat on the edge of the bed and touched Esther's head, watching her surprised and expectant eyes repeating his own words.

"If you like it, that's fine."

"I really like teaching people, but if the children come here, we have to prepare a few sets of tables, chairs and textbooks...then" Esther lay down on Sephiroth's lap, wringing her fingers together Counting the preparations that need to be made, "Then...the time we spend together will be shorter."

Although Sephiroth usually goes to work during the day, if she has to teach several children, besides attending classes during the day, she also has to prepare lessons at night, and may even write a problem set or something.In this way, I can't care about him.

It was hard for the two of them to be together like this, isn't it a bit...

"Just do what you want." Sephiroth took Esther's hand and held it in his hand. His hand was big enough to wrap her hand completely. "Without Shinra's business, We still have a lot of time ahead.”

"That's right, if you don't find something you're interested in doing for such a long time, but just get together, you'll probably get tired of it one day—husband and wife must always keep something fresh. .”

After thinking about it, Esther thought it was right. They still had a lot of time, and they had to enrich their future lives.

She raised the hand held by Sephiroth, brought Sephiroth's hand to her lips and kissed it.

"Don't worry, I will always love you, you are the number one in my heart!"

Ever since she said I love you, Esther found that she really had a talent for sweet talk.Especially every time I saw Sephiroth a little bit shy because of his sweet talk, my heart was almost bubbling.

She dragged Sephiroth around for a while, and the two lay side by side on the big bed.

Esther held Sephiroth's hand tightly, and suddenly remembered what she thought of in the orphanage in the afternoon, and said:

"Sephiroth, I will try my best to outlive you."

"En." The silver-haired man responded softly, "Why do you suddenly think of saying this?"

"Well...Because, I want to hold a...a peerless funeral for you...unprecedented and never seen before." Esther turned around and hugged Sephiroth with a smile, "This is in line with your identity and beauty!"

"That's really... people look forward to." It's a happy thing to be treated so solemnly after death, right?

lied to you.

Esther stuck out her tongue inwardly.

She just didn't want Sephiroth to go through that pain again.

It is painful for the person who dies later, because he wants to send his loved one away helplessly.When a person dies, all sorrow and unwillingness disappear, but not the living.

She felt that she was strong enough, so she wanted her to bear the pain.

Even if it was only for a minute, she must die after Sephiroth died, and never let him be sad again.
