During the majority of the afternoon, we all spent it drinking tea and talk about whatever topics we ca up with. So were just us arguing about sothing and mostly Eon doing idiotic things, which earned him both the tongue lashing and a hit to the head. I sotis am conflicted if I would pity him or not. He is pitiful sotis.
'It's his fault for doing and saying stupid things though...'
After that mini reunion we had, all of them then returned to each their own hos. Ezekiel had left with quite a flash from being escorted by such a number of people. It wouldn't be impossible that a rumor would go around the nobility again. They sure do love rumors a lot.
And I would bet my everything that those rumors would be all exaggerated as well.. Could be nasty, or could be not.
I was now back in my room, staring at all the gifts that everyone, and I ant every single person, had sent . My room literally looked like a mini shop now. Everywhere I look, every corner, and every open space, there are things.
There were piles of missives above my table, which ca from the students who wished well during my comatose state. Erin said that there were flowers as well and were kept in the greenhouse for safekeeping, so that it won't wilt before I could even get to see it.
Apparently, the greenhouse had beco storage for bouquets and potted plants. It looks like a mini garden now.
I glanced at the room again and sighed for the nth ti.
'Burdenso... These are all burdenso...'
Again, I am grateful that everyone is being like this because of . But looking at the state my room had beco...
'How am I going to use them all anyway?'
The gifts that the emperor had given were placed on the table, and so are the other things that others had sent, all spreaded out for our eyes to see. Just looking at all of these, I felt like it's my birthday or sothing.
It also made wonder how much would this amount to if I ever sell it. Not that I am thinking of doing that… Nope. I am not thinking anything such as that at all. Just in case, you know...
Man. If one day I just decide that I want to live alone and go sowhere remote, I could bring these all with and I would be set for life. I wouldn't starve!
'Do you see this jeweled bonsai tree just now? This only will last for decades!'
My eyes then caught sight of the sleeping fox on the bed. It still has not woken up even until now and had remained curled into a ball. I got truly scared at first because I thought it was dead, but it was still breathing when I checked it, which to my relief.
"Now, what am I going to do with these?" I whispered and surveyed the room again.
The emperor had not only given jewels and gold coins, His Imperial Majesty had also sent a few fabrics that looked so beautiful that it scared just by thinking of how much it cost.
Even I was indecisive to touch it with my bare hands while my maids were all staring at it in wonder and amazent.
"Milady, how about using another room to store these?" Lily suggested.
Another room huh? Not a bad idea... But I can also just push them all inside my walk-in closet. Would that make it look untidy?
'Of course, it would! That's a stupid idea... Let's stick to another room then.'
I slowly bit my lower lip as I narrowed my eyes at the varied boxes in front of .
"I can't honestly use all this, could I? Especially this one," and pointed to the luminous fabrics.
Those are so of the gifts that were giving anxiety just by looking at them.
Unless I decide to make a dress out of it, but then again, I already have too many! So are not even used yet!
"What a dilemma…"
"Then how about Milady use them for Milady's upcoming birthday?" Erin suggested.
'Hmm? My birthday?'
I looked at her with furrowed brows. I did not know when it is, at all! Co to think of it, have I ever celebrated my birthday before? I can't seem to rember…
Even when I was still in the modern world, I have no such mories of celebrating it once.
"It would be Milady's 16th birthday next month, which ans it will also be Milady's social debut," Erin added as she smiled at . She looked so excited for that supposed social debut of mine.
Oh dang. Is it also that ti already? Wait, how long have I been here again? Why do I feel like I have been living here for my whole life?
What's more strange is, it seems like I am also okay staying here now unlike from the very first ti. I had cried then and had wished that I could go back.
But at this mont, my life in the real world feels more like a dream to instead of this current reality I am living in.
How strange…
"Milady?" Mari called out when I did not say anything after that.
I snapped out from my thoughts and smiled at them.
"When was that again?" I inquired. The novel had not noted Nadia's birthday so I have no idea.
Mari was confused after I had asked them that. She was looking at if I was serious or not. I get her.
Erin, who had rembered what I told her before, stepped in to my rescue.
"It's the first week of the next month, Milady," she answered.
So soon? And isn't next month's Estelle's birthday too? Hmm…
If I rembered it correctly, Estelle's birthday is also in the first week, isn't it? What a coincidence…
I wonder how Estelle is right now?
