Mae was silent as the door was shut, gazing longingly at the still-restless shadows in the corner, no doubt a by-product of Alexandre's distress. Hitting him had been the hardest thing she had done in her whole life, and it pained her deeply. She hated that she had done that, and tried to tell herself that the contract might have become invalid if she had let him kiss her. When Matthias spoke, she looked back up, the shadows now dispersed completely.
Her father shaking his head, he said, "No, it isn't your fault. Alexandre loves Lachrimae very much, and I cannot imagine that it is easy to let her be with someone else..." He trails off. Mae knew that he knew how much she and Alexandre had wanted to be together, and it made her angry that he was talking about her as if she wasn't there. However, she didn't say anything, still shell-shocked by what she had been forced to do to Alexandre.
There was an awkward silence before her father continued, "Hopefully, with nothing else to inconvenience us, the two of you can be on your way. The wedding will be in two weeks, and everything will be fine," he says with a smile, trying to lighten the mood once more.
