I wanted to throw the bouquet at the back of his head and tell him that it was too late for gestures! Nonetheless, my arms felt too weak to lift up the bouquet. I couldn’t bear to do it.
Even as I got out of the car, I held onto the bouquet. I didn’t let it go from the start of the car ride until the end. I really liked the flowers very much.

Her sudden movements might have caused her wound to hurt, so Claudia lost her balance and fell to her knees in front of me.

However, I didn’t take it.
I wanted to look for Wendy to give her the tonic, but Claudia kept chatting away while clinging to me. This seemed to be the first time in four years that Claudia paid me so much attention while Nicholas was present.
