Bernadetta & Alois A

Bernadetta
♪Hm hm-hm-hm... I finally have a day all on my own... A day inside my room... At last I feel as free as a bird that’s flown...♪

Alois
Bernadetta, do you have a moment?

Bernadetta
Ah! I wasn't looking at their hats, I swear!

Bernadetta
And if I was, I wouldn't say a word about them! Not even if you tortured me!

Bernadetta
Mercy! Please! I can keep a secret—honest!

Alois
Hold on! It's me, Alois. Calm down.

Bernadetta
Huh? Oh, Alois! I was sure you— Um, never mind.

Alois
Hm. I can't help but wonder about these hats you were looking at... But I'll set that aside for now.

Alois
I wanted to apologize for being insensitive. I can't believe I trampled on your emotions like that.

Bernadetta
Huh? Was there something you did? I don't remember anything...

Alois
About your dear uncle. It never crossed my mind that he might have passed away.

Bernadetta
Oh, that. Don't worry about it.

Alois
But it clearly upset you.

Alois
I can't even express how guilty I feel about opening an old wound like that. I'm so sorry.

Bernadetta
Hey, it's OK. You're reminding me of him even now.

Bernadetta
And it's completely fine! I'm glad we talked about it.

Alois
Is that so? Hm. Well then, why did you look so sad when I mentioned him?

Bernadetta
The truth is I realized I hadn't visited my uncle's grave in a long time.

Bernadetta
With me not showing up for so long, I imagined him being worried about me...

Alois
I see. He must have been quite dear to you.

Bernadetta
Hey, that gives me a great idea!

Bernadetta
Why don't we go see my uncle together sometime?

Alois
You want me to visit your uncle's grave? But I don't have any connection with him.

Bernadetta
Sure you do. You're connected by me!

Alois
I didn't think of that... All right, then. I accept.

Alois
If you don't mind my tagging along, I'll gladly accompany you!

Bernadetta
Great! Thanks, Unc— Ugh... Thanks, Alois.

Alois
Hahaha!
