Chapter 45: The Emperorâs Daughter Chapter . 45
âWho does my princess look alike? Why are you so pretty?!â
I looked like me . Wasnât that obvious? Who did I look like? Thereâs no one .
I had been thinking if I looked like my dad for a moment, butâŚ
It would have been a mess . The babyâs already throwing her toys, crying all the times . I must have been a total wreck if that was my personality, of course . I didnât know my mother and her personality, so I couldnât tell .
I wasnât the type of person who accepted touch, but after spending a year and a half like this, I was so used to Elene hugging me, smacking her cheek, kissing me, and touching me . I didnât like anyone touching me, but somehow, I ended up like this . Damn, humans were adaptable animals .
âGet away from me . â
I grumbled since I didnât like myself getting used to this butâŚ
âMy God, why is my princess so cute? Cute, cute!â
It didnât work a bit . Oh, shit .
Why! I was able to speak properly! Why couldnât I communicate?
I realized my communication problems didnât seem to be a matter of my pronunciation . I thought I found the light since I had no problem but only a tiny leak in my pronunciation butâŚ
It was not a problem . Shoot .
âGraecito, you should greet the princess . â
Seriraâs words made Graecito angry and hid behind his grandmotherâs skirt . I watched the scene in Eleneâs arms . Serira bites her lips .
Oh, I was getting angry . Stop bothering Serira, you fucking rabbit .
It was a small voice, a very small one . It was a small voice I could only understand, but he frowned at my lips . Wow, he could understand that . The only thing he could do was to hold his grandmotherâs skirt and stared at me, but he got whatâs bad for him . Oh, how did I end up like this?
Serira looked at me . Her expression was filled with apology and guilt . I didnât mean to make her look like that . Well . I laughed like I didnât know anything . That was the wisest thing I could do .
âI want ice cream! Ice!â
Elene, who was holding me, stood up . She tried to bring some ice cream, but Serira stopped her . She meant she would bring it . She must have been very sorry for me .
I watched Serira disappear and turned my head again to see Graecito .
Ever since my birthday, my good-for-nothing dad kept inviting Graecito to the palace . Yes, this situation was just Caitelâs joke .
I knew this was a time to be interested in some other kids of my age, but I didnât like being with someone who hated me . In particular, Graecito looked at me like an enemy somehow . I was still a baby, so thereâs no reason for anyone to have a grudge against me . What the hell was wrong with him when he was also a baby? I would be generous for a couple of days . However, Itâs already been six months and I couldnât help it . Whenever he saw me twice a week, he just stuck close to his grandmother and stared at me in a sulky way .
What the hell was his complaint? What the hell was it?
Even though I said it with a smile, he looked at me quickly . He knew itâs a bad word even when heâs a kid . Huh, yeah, this was marvelous . Since everyone thought I liked him even he didnât like me, I should act like I adored him . I got close and held his hand .
Graecito hit my hand in a single stroke . I was glad Serira wasnât here now .
His grandma freaks out and caught Graecito . I took a breath because it happened every time . That brat .
Stop being so embarrassed . I approached him knowing this would happen . Still, I didnât avoid it when Elene called me . What the hell was I going through? I didnât have any good feelings for him . Still, I had to keep pretending I was close to Graecito so he could continue coming . Of course, it was all for Serira . She used to see her son about once in a month but now eight times a month, and how could I keep him away?
âWhatâs going on? Did Gree do something again?â
Nice timing . Serira just came back and asked Elene, but she just smiled and shook her head . I ran to Serira .
Scooping! Well, this ice cream was more like bingsu(Korean ice flake dessert) than ice cream, but it was good . I was a kid who loved cold things!
âHere, Gree, you should have one too . â
Serira held out ice cream to him, but Graecito knocked it out of her hand . If he didnât want to eat, he should just say no . How dare he! A wave of deep anger shook my head for a moment, but soon I held back .
Hold still . Hold still . Phew .
Serira, who almost spilled the ice cream, spoke out to him in rare cases . Gracito was troublesome . Itâs not easy to get scolded every time by a friendly Serira . I finished my shaved ice and went to clung to the angry Serira .
If he didnât want to eat then donât eat! I would eat everything! This was so delicious . The imperial chef was the best . Itâs so good . I was on the verge of gaining weight
âNo, princess, you canât . If you eat a lot of cold stuff, youâll get sick . â
âNo, I want to eat it!â
âIâm gonna eat it . I want it!â
Serira seemed stressed . I knew she was in trouble, but still, itâs so good . It was a very ungainly act, but I wanted it . I was still a baby on the outside!
âThen take half this . Iâll eat the rest . â
âThen Elene eat too!â
I turned my head and called Elene, and she emotionally held her hand . I nodded .
âYes . Letâs eat together . â
âLetâs make fun of that idiot who wonât eat this delicious food . â
The old lady smiled when I brought her a spoon of ice cream . Sheâs Seriraâs mother, and she looked just like Serira . I wondered if Serira would become like her when she got older .
âMy princess, eat a lot . â
âBut just eat this . â
Here, I gave her my spoon and the hesitating old lady ended up eating some ice cream .
This was the skill of our Solay Palace chef . I was full of pride . I heard heâs chosen out of 1500 people . I guessed they were not lying . All the food he made was a treasure . You had to designate it as a cultural asset in the country . Since delicious food was the treasure of the country!
âWould you like to eat it, too, Gree?â
When I laughed my head off and ate the ice cream again, Grandma turned and asked her grandson . I couldnât believe heâs such a stubborn boy . He shook his head with a cold shake .
Whoa, yeah, look at you .
âOh, itâs really delicious . â
If someone refused to eat something I could eat then thereâs nothing sad about that . Haha .
