Summary[]
After hearing from Alberta that Violet Evergarden is on vacation and travelling around the world with Gilbert Bougainvillea, Charlotte Abelfreyja Flugel invites them to the Kingdom of Flugel as guests of honor. Violet introduces Gilbert to Charlotte. Charlotte is amused by Violet's uncertainty over how to define her relationship with Gilbert. Gilbert leaves the two women to catch up with each other. Charlotte is delighted that Violet is able to smile more naturally now. Charlotte tells Violet that she is pregnant. She asks Violet to stay at the villa for a day, and she agrees. Charlotte asks Violet why she visited Alberta in Drossel before coming here. Violet explains that Alberta had recommended her for many jobs, including one where she worked as a private tutor for a young lady, so she wanted to go thank her. It was also Alberta who convinced Violet to visit Charlotte, as Violet originally hadn't planned to go to Flugel because she didn't think civilians should visit royalty so easily.
Afterwards, they talked about the things that happened to them during the time they hadn't seen each other. Charlotte talks about how she and Damian were able to fall in love with each other properly after marrying, and Violet talks about her reunion with Gilbert and how she wants to show him all the places she visited as an Auto Memories Doll. Violet mentions the orphanage funded by Charlotte and that a girl from there is going to work at the CH Postal Company soon. Charlotte feels sad because there is no guarantee that she and Violet will meet each again, since they are of different social positions. She confesses how lonely she felt in her marriage and how she would think of Violet whenever she felt like crying. Violet once again tells her that she wants to stop her tears. She invites to Charlotte to come to Leidenschaftlich one day and that she will show her around the city. Gilbert rejoins them, and Charlotte thinks about the letter she'll write to Violet in the future when she wants to see her.
