Since he just woke up, his hair was spread more naturally than before, and the clothes he was wearing was slightly open revealing his well-built body.
Oops, embarrassing. This is embarrassing. Hey, I'm a grow-up lady even though my body is a little kid's!
Claude didn't notice what I was thinking and turned his gaze out the window on his left. The sun was already setting down, leaving an orange yellow sky visible.
He slowly stood up to stretch like a psycho does.
"We are having the feast here."
* * *
"You look like you were doing fine these days as you look bright and healthy."
It was my first ti facing Claude this straightforward after the ti on the boat.
I was examining the dishes on the table in the emperor's bedroom. Each of dish looked very yummy, but it still had so very informal food to eat for the emperor.
I was just thinking it was very unusual, but lifted my head right away when he said the weirdest thing he could ever say right now.
There was no way he was not inford of my health, but he never once ca to visit . Well, I an it would definitely worsen my cold if he did co!
Anyways, I was speechless to this dude who didn't even co to visit his sick daughter and just say 'Oh, you look fine'.
I didn't even expect a lot, not even warm words like 'I heard you were very sick, are you okay?' or 'You look tired. Rest well.' but isn't this a little too much? Yeah right. This is Claude I'm talking about.
"Papa also looks pwetty!"
But I'm just a good old weak sunfish. Let's not forget. It's plan C, plan C. Even if it's for plan B, it is important to extend my life span this way! There is NOTHING more important than life even though it is dirty and unfair!
I ignored Claude and smiled brightly. His eyes showed interest at this. Yes, yes, is it interesting to see a girl who was sick by yesterday because she fell in the lake to be smiling oh-so-brightly?
Claude was just staring at with from across with his chin set on his hand. But why do you look like you are trying to look handso? (This is Atti's misunderstanding. Claude definitely is not trying to look handso.) Are you trying to make fall for you? Ha, yeah! What a talent! Imma not fall for you, bast*rd!
"Listen. I have only prepared foods you like."
So, this is at? You'r making fun of cuz I'm chubby, right? You are humiliating , right?
"Thank you for the fooooooood."
But it was not if I didn't eat. I decided to ignore Claude's gaze and focus on eating.
Woah, it's lting in my mouth! You eat this kind of food every day? There were expensive dishes in my palace too, but the quality and taste are incomparable! This is a difference!
The silverwares were too heavy for to grasp. Also, the steak was not pre-sliced so I had to slice them myself. Furthermore, this table is too tall!
Clank! And my silverware ended up making this horrible sound of this plate and silverware scratching each other.
Gasp. I held my breath that mont. Forget the embarrassnt, Claude's reactions are more important. H-he's not gonna be mad by this, is he? He isn't gonna throw his knife right at , is he?
"You should work on your education more."
But Claude didn't say a word and ignored. Hahhh, I'm alive.
"I will send a person over to your palace tomorrow. You are very uneducated than I expected probably because no really educated people had taught you."
Wha? Did you just make fun of my dear maids?? Uneducated? Those sisters are all nobles! What is WRONG with you?!
"Get so professional educational help from now on."
Ah, yes. Mr. You (a.k.a: Claude;you) was royal blooded.
It was hard to keep the poker face on, but I was fortunate that he didn't seem to notice. We were on the end of the table, far across from each other. Ah what a relief that the table is loooooong. Huhuhu.
That sohow made my anger boil and want to explode, but I smiled brightly as I could instead.
"Atti will do her best, papa!"
Then Claude sent a gaze of seeing a weird thing. It wasn't the first we had this kind of awkward tea party together, but it was the first he sent this look. It doesn't feel right... Why do you look like you are seeing an animal pooping...?
Claude stared at the whole ti I ate. Arghhh, I feel like throwing up.
"Papa, good night! Bye bye!"
I was a package being delivered by Felix to the Ruby palace after the feast with Claude.
He told to have a good night like he always did, but today I just answered with 'hmph!'. From that, Lilly frowned a bit but I was very mad at him today.
I an, it was like 'Oooh looook, the dog emperor is sleeping. You should go and wake him up!', and just literally pushed in his room when I was not even ready! Shivers, if I thought back on the events occurred today, I wouldn't even feel sorry for Felix when I displanted (?) all his hair out his head flesh! (a.k.a: pick his hair out, make him bald.)
Sob. I trusted you. How dare you hand in over Claude's hands just like this...
Felix, with a face that says 'I know nothing' made even more mad.
"Lilly, lullaby."
That night, I begged using aegyo. She seed to like it and giggled, placing blanket on .
"Then should I sing one for you?"
Soon, a song sang with sweet voice watered my ears.
"Shh, step, and another step... Get a flower if the night cos. Pretty Ms. Star is smiling for us."
Kyaaa. Of course, it is not comparable to my singing. I want to kick blankets like other days, but I'll not since Lilly's here.
"Bye today. More shiny day will co tomorrow."
Lilly's sweet voice made close my eyes. It was great that a person was singing lullaby specifically for . Even though I'm old as h*ll to sleep listening to lullaby.
"Only have good dreams. Bye. Good night, our baby."
I don't know what horrible events will happen tomorrow. But, for now... Let's forget about everything and sleep. I must sleep to grow. I wish it is 10 years after when I wake up. Sniff.
"Good night, our baby."
Lilly, also sleep well! Trying hard to forget of that dog face of emperor's, I closed my eyes to the gem like Lilly's voice.
Just like every other night, wishing for the ti to go by quickly...
