Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

"Mother!" Buh.

"What? I... How did this happen..."

Himself in the past who suddenly hugs me and calls me my mother about me. Before such a small self, it seems that Catalina no longer knows how to be good.

Then this is what Julia, who was watching it, says as she gestures something, gnawing, with both arms.

"See, Master Catalina? Hugs, right? Hugs."

With that word--

".................." Gyu

—— and Catalina holding her little self back as she was told, with a look that seemed somewhere unpleasant.

At the same time, she tries to add these words--

"... I'm sorry. I'm not your mother..."

"Mother! Mother! Whoa, whoa!

—— I can't get that word to a crying child... For some time then, Catalina had no choice but to mock her little self.

◇

"Calm down?

".................. yeah"

Cry a little, turn your eyes and nose bright red...... Little Catalina looking calm at last. Such was she sitting on a chair in the infirmary, where she seemed to shake every bit. Apparently, it was a rare thing called a chair to go around.

Catalina (Greater) spoke again to herself in such a past.

"I might be shocked... but I'm not your mother. Now you understand?

The little Catalina then shakes her neck vertically with stiffness before responding.

"Yeah...... I knew...... Your mother is not coming back..."

"Yes............... sorry"

Catalina the big one mouths words of apology with a sorry look on her face to herself about how she accepts the facts, albeit a long time ago.

When she thinks about how to go on with words like that, a question like this flies from her little self and vice versa.

"Hey, sister? What's your name?

"Name…"

To whom and what should I answer? Should I honestly say ”Catalina” or another pseudonym…. She replies after a bit of trouble.

"... Catalina"

"What? I'm Catalina, too, right? Same name?"

"Looks like..."

"Hmmm......"

That said, some little Catalina who delightfully narrows her eyes.

She's a genuine, normal girl like that, and she had no particular problems communicating... For Catalina, the big one who was dealing with her ——

…………

—— He seemed to be a hard person to talk to.

Because in her memory, she didn't remember having a face-to-face conversation with a ”Catalina” other than herself, and she couldn't decide whether it was really the right thing to be talking like this right now. When I reunited with Dean Vixen, although I managed to regain my memory, this time it did not, so I seem to have become unnecessarily worried.

Because of that, she said she was worried about the word-- with a look that seemed complicated.

………… What's the matter with you? Uh... Catalina... sister?

—— Worried words fly from little Catalina again.

As a result, she seems to have decided to stop thinking and talk once she can no longer remain silent.

"... no. I was just thinking."

".................. heh!

…………

"Something seems to have made a real sister, me, happy! [incomprehensible]

"... is that right..."

I was myself when I was a little girl with a full smile. Even in front of such an innocent girl, the troubled Catalina seemed to be in such a mess.

Such a fold......

Someone more aggressive than her (?) but emerges from the gap in the white coat.

"............"?

It is Schwartz, who was hiding and seeing and hearing the whole thing. He seems to have begun to seriously observe her face by bringing his tentacle-like neck out of the hem of his white coat, as high as the little Catalina face. He was also interested in who she was.

Although the opposing little Catalina had initially rounded her eyes in front of that mysterious object like a black space that reflected no light whatsoever...... Demonstrate childish adaptability ——

"Uh... what's your name?

—— and without fear, he mouthed such an inquiry as he stroked Cheval's head.

In contrast, although Schwartz could not speak the word--

"... This child is Schwartz. It's my precious family."

—— Large Catalina responds in place of Cheval.

"Cheval...... honey?

"………"

In response to a small Catalina inquiry, the neck (?) Schwartz swinging vertically.

Though all I could say about his appearance was that he was completely unusual... In the eyes of little Catalina ——

".................. cute! ♪ Shiny

—— It looked like a small animal or something.
