First Umineko story for me. Enjoy.


No matter how many times she sees it, Rosa thinks Rokkenjima's main garden is always impressive.

Especially when the roses, the flowers with which she shares its name and especially appreciate the flowers for that reason, are fully in bloom, making the place colorful and making it more attractive than it already is.

Rosa almost always smiles at the sight, feeling her spirits partially improved even when she know that the meeting with her family will not be pleasant.

Maria also seems to appreciate the garden. Maria-

her lovely daughter, always with her irritating laugh and "Uu"-ing that never stops

-runs to the center of the garden, pulling her mother with her.

Instead of following her daughter, Rosa drops the hand, more than relieved when Maria moves on; the roses capturing her attention right now.

"Mama, aren't the roses pretty?"

Rosa agrees, and Maria lets out a "Uu" in excitement.

Whatever the child said after that, Rosa doesn't know because all she can hear is the 'Uu'.

That damn sound.

She really wants Maria to stop making that noise.

And believing in witches and magic and just be normal.

But Rosa stops herself. At the moment, no one is around to see it and it allows her to take a break and not worry about anything, so she takes the opportunity to see the garden for a little more, staying a little longer and forgetting the world for a moment before having to return to the always unpleasant reality.
