âSo you can use the original name if you want. Your name is Beatrice and your nickname is Betty.â
And while talking to my mom, I made up my mind.
âI want to be Beatrice.â
As expected, the motherâs eyes were a little disappointed.
Thatâs what I wanted, but I nodded at my mother, who mumbled towards the end of the sentence.
âIâll only do that on the documents. Bebe⊠Because Iâm my momâs Bebe, I want to keep being Bebe.â
âThen he wonât be able to find us well either.â
I doubted it. No matter how different the name was, heâd be suspicious of the sudden appearance of the Grand Dukeâs child. The Emperor would be looking for me more than anyone else.
But I wasnât worried, because I knew that the Grand Duke  would protect my mom and I.
âBebe, for your momâŠâ
âI like the name Bebe. Itâs best when my mom calls me Bebe. So itâs not for your mom unconditionally. Itâs because you like me!â
Momâs eyes became moist.
âMom also⊠You like the name Bebe more than Mom! Itâs a good thing I became Bebeâs mother.â
âYes! Please continue to be my mom!â
Meanwhile, the door opened again.
âMy Lady, I prepared a meal.â
With a more lively voice and behavior than ever, Cecilia brought in food.
âOh, it looks delicious.â
âYoung Master, didnât you have dinner?â
âYeah, but Iâm going to eat with Bebe because I enjoy spending time with her the most.â
Looking at them, I got up from my seat before my mother and ran to Allen.
âDid you finish your work today?â
âOf course. I finished training to be with Bebe, and I finished class.â
âSo donât worry. Letâs hurry up and eat.â
âItâs nothing. Weâre going to eat together in a special way just this time.â
Only then did Allen smile brightly and nod.
Even talking like that, I couldnât kick him out, so I looked at Allen with a defeated look and reached out to my mom.
âMom, can you get up?â
âOh⊠maybe? Donât worry. I have enough energy to run around.â
However, as soon as I heard her, my motherâs body, which jumped from her seat, tipped to the side momentarily.

I was surprised and tried to catch my mother, but it was not enough.
On that day, Cecilia ran over and caught my mother.
Thanks to Cecilia, the mother quickly turned her head and looked at her. However, my motherâs eyes were uncomfortable.
âShould I bring a doctor?â
It was clearly different from what I saw. Perhaps because she didnât want to look weak on purpose, but my mother shook off Ceciliaâs arm slightly and started walking slowly.
Maybe itâs because she had been lying down for a while, but it was just as awkward as a baby learning how to walk.
âItâs okay. I can walk.â
At the same time, I felt very anxious. But I couldnât stop her.
âI donât want my mom to look weak either. She was always weak because she was beatenâŠâ
So all I could do was hold my slow-walking motherâs hand tightly.
Fortunately, my mother arrived at the table without falling. As if it was hard, sweat was on her forehead.
âWhat do you think? Mom, are you okay?â
I didnât forget to smile as if nothing had happened.
âThen⊠Iâll go out so that you can eat comfortably.â
As always, Cecilia poured water in front of us and went outside.
But my mother didnât take her eyes off her until Cecilia left. Although my persuasion had softened her a bit, she still couldnât dispel her doubts.
âThe Grand Dukeâs food is excellent, especially the meat.â
However, my brother, who said he would eat with me, was busy eating vegetables, saying the meat was delicious. He looked like a foal eating carrots. Even the vegetables were so delicious that my fork naturally went toward the salad.
âDonât eat vegetables. You eat the meat.â
âWhy? It looks delicious.â
âBebe is small, so you have to grow up quickly. So eat meat.â
Then, he pulled a large salad plate toward him.
âYes! Iâm greedy. So go ahead and try the meat.â

My mom, who was looking at us like that, looked at the bowl of soup in front of me silently.
There were different types of soups in front of my mom and me, but my momâs was too watery.
âMom, do you want something else?â
âNo, itâs enough, but he seems to be more considerate of us than I thought.â
âOh, right! I think itâs right! Cecilia is sweet. She washed Momâs body every day while you were sleeping, and washed her hair alone. She also changed your posture when you were lying down. If you lie down for a long time, youâll get something weird.â
