âIs something the matter?â
Assisi asked me as to why I looked too gloomy . I just shook my head . I wanna tell him that the cake I made wasnât as good as I had hoped⊠but I would feel even more upset if I admitted it now .
Whether I was upset or not, Serira had dragged me into my room as soon as the cake was completed .
I had already taken a bath in the morning, but she gave me a full-body bath again and a massage before rolling my hair . I already picked out a dress to wear a couple days ago . I would have been so tired if I had chosen it today . Itâs tiring enough to have the maids dress me up for every occasion, but that cake was already looking so awful even though itâs my present⊠what a bummer .
Then again, I did look quite lovely today if I said so myself . The maids worked especially hard on this outfit since itâs such an important day .
I had wavy hair, but the waves that the maids made using the tool was definitely better . The head decoration, which had a little bead that looked like a jewel, was pretty . As the maids decorated me with all their heart and soul, my lovely appearance became lovelier .
Being a princess is good for a time like this .
I had never had much virtue in my previous life, and I was glad I was born as such a pretty girl . Then again, thinking about that present was making me upset .
âWhat did you get for your dadâs birthday?â
When I grabbed Assisiâs arm while asking, he tilted his head .
âWhat I always give him . â
âThe head of the enemy . â
⊠What? Wow, how was that a birthday present?
I didnât even know where I should start scolding him, so I stared blankly at Assisi as he smiled softly . Yeah, well, itâs not like Assisi did anything wrong . Caitel was the cause of this madness! Aah, this country was doomed .
âAll right, Princess . Itâs time to present your gift to His Majesty . â
Serira grabbed me by the arm while I was playing with Assisi . Elyne, who was back from her break now, tilted her head as if she was trying to understand the situation . No, I thought I should just go since I still felt awkward when I saw her⊠but itâs not like I wanna see dad either!
I always thought that once I was older, people wouldnât ignore my opinion or how I felt⊠but this world was just all too cruelâŠ
