âPerez, you know people are paying attention to us, right?â
âI guess so.â
What do you mean âI Guest soâ.
You are so calm.
I decided to explain one by one.
âThere was a reason why my grandfather was against being a part of you in the first place, right? If we did something wrong, we would be misunderstood as a marriage partner.â
âYes, I know.â
âAnd I know that there are people who are constantly whispering about our future, as rumors have circulated that you saved my father, right?â
âNo. I didnât know that.â
Of course.
Heâs Perez who doesnât care about people around him.
âBut it doesnât matter.â
ââŚWhat?â
âIt doesnât matter.â
Oh, itâs so frustrating that youâre the only one who knows the future.
Because he doesnât know what kind of woman he meets and how he falls in love with in the future.1
You may be indifferent to whatever rumors are circulating right now.
I sighed softly.
As far as I know, that woman is like Perezâs soulmate.
Rumor has it that the two were like a match made in heaven, and were indeed a really good match.
In addition, she was the person who helped Perez retake the throne.
If such a person hears rumors and loses touch with Perez, itâs a big deal.
Even if I can help him become the Crown Prince, I cannot tolerate taking away the opportunity to meet such a precious person from him.
I shook my head firmly.
âRumors like that donât help you. Donât regret it, youâd better draw a clear line from now on.â
âTia.â
Perez calls me.
âI have no regrets.â
âYouâll regret it.â
âI wonât regret it.â
You were stubborn!
Itâs all about you!
You donât even know how I feel!
I was so frustrated that I felt like I was going to burst, but I soon accepted it.
He doesnât know the future, he doesnât understand what Iâm saying.
Yeah, I just have to be careful instead.

But Perez is strangely quiet.
Close his lower lip and turn his head to the side.
âDid you upset?â
Thereâs no answer.
He only steps on and takes off a leaf that has fallen to the ground with his toes.
âHey, Perez.â
I slipped my shoulder, took a look at him, but soon flipped his head away.
You must be really upset.
âHold on a second here.â
I said that and scoured the table where the food was placed for it.
It just so happens that not far away was what I was looking for.
âEat this and let it go.â
Perez, still standing there looking sullen, I handed over chocolate cookies.
But itâs not just a normal cookie.
Big chocolate cookies, bigger than my palms combined.
He accepted it, and cut it in half
âYou eat, too.â
I think the one you gave me is bigger.

I bit off half of the giant cookie.
The sweetness spreads in my mouth and my tongue as the chocolate melts.
Oh, itâs sweet.
Itâs strange for people to think that sweets are not good for their health and taste better.
My body trembled with joy mixed with a sense of betrayal.
Of course, sweets are the best when itâs complicated.
When I opened my eyes as I was absorbed in cookies, I could see a smile on Perezâs lips.
âThatâs good, isnât it?
âYes, thatâs good.â
Perez smiled and nodded.
Dude, youâve relieved your anger.
I patted Perez on the shoulder, which is now above my eye level.
Heâs a little bigger, but heâs still young.
Heâs only 13, so itâs obvious.
âTime will tell, Perez.â
What I meant by what I said now.
âI think so, too.â
Perez was more relaxed, and he agreed obediently.
âYouâll find out in time.â
He said so and bit the cookie once again.
Seeing his eyes twinkling, he must have liked the chocolate cookie quite a bit.
I should pack it for him when he goes home.
âOh, come to think of it. I have to go to the academy.â
âCough, âŚWhat?â
âI was informed a few days ago. Iâm afraidâŚâ
âIt must be the will of Empress Rabini.â
I spoke with my voice as low as I could.
It was an Imperial Academy, the object of dreams and envy for the common people, but it was slightly different for the aristocrats and the royal family.
Successors to take over the family are not sent to the Academy.
That was a rule that was implicitly maintained.
Heirs are raised in the family and taught directly in the family.
However, those who had to continue their titles, such as their second and third sons, went to the Imperial Academy to build personal connections and gain knowledge.
Therefore, the Empress wants to send Perez to the Academy and make sure that the Crown Princeâs place belongs to Astana.
âI donât really want to goâŚâ
Perez murmured.
I understand, that mind.
Going to the Academy could seem like a big setback if you wait and see right now.
