My mother followed the declaration and then began to line up the dresses and accessories with the momentum to fill my room a lot. I'm no longer like my mother's dressing doll and I'm not even sure what I dressed up for.
When I decided on a light mint green dress, I was exhausted and laid back on the couch. Still, I look at my satisfied mother's face and think again, is that okay?
I just have questions. I asked my mother why she was in the mood so far when it was not a royal ball or a tea party hosted by the queen. Then my mother said, "Has it been a long time since I've had a date with Your Highness? Then I wonder if His Highness would look amazingly beautiful," he grinned.
And that day.
When I hear the news that His Highness has come to pick me up, I head to the hall with Sarah. Then, down the stairs, you get glittering blonde hair in the sunlight that always plugs through the window as well.
That only makes my chest pound loudly. But the moment His Highness noticed me and looked back.
Put me in sight, and I could see His Highness opening his eyes as surprised. And soon afterwards, he joyfully narrows his eyes and slowly walks toward me with a smile on his face.
I'm sure that if there were other women on this occasion now, they would all be fascinated by His Highness, and His Highness's smile is sweet and gentle... still feels the definite fever that dwelt in his eyes.
"Rachel, it's so beautiful"
His Highness gently offers his hand when he comes to my sight. His Highness deepened his grin as he put his own hand on it to accompany his hand.
I feel my cheeks tremble like that floating in His Highness's sweet fever. I painstakingly told him, "Your Highness is very nice too," but I worry that my voice will not be trembling.
- I wonder why. It's not like it's been a long time since I've seen His Highness... just to see His Highness. My chest is so pounding, I can tighten it up.
"Thank you. I can't help but be glad to think I can keep you so beautiful today to myself. I'm not the only one who thinks I was looking forward to today... can I fall in love with that?
Without shifting his gaze from my eyes, His Highness carried my hand in his grip to His Highness's mouth and gently mouthed it.
"So, Your Highness"
"Apparently I'm floating more than I think I am."
Aware of His Majesty's words and His Majesty's lips touching his hands, it gets so hot that fire seems to come out of his face. With such a gentle look at me, His Highness leaked a laugh with pleasure. "Come on, it's time to go," he looks up softly as he walks next to me, hissing my hand.
Strange to my gaze, "What's wrong?" I unwittingly get stuck in the words "Ugh" to His Highness, who asks. Still, if I don't always tell you how I feel as well as waiting for words from His Highness, I open my mouth with a snack.
"... you know, me too. I was looking forward to today, too."
His Royal Highness opened his eyes slightly to my tiny voice that squeezed. And shortly afterwards, he broke his face with a slight blush on his cheek.
While riding the carriage with His Highness, speaking of which, it may be a long time since I have gone out without feeling this way, I think. Lately all I cared about was that land of spirits inhabited by dark spirits. Besides, I've been desperate to regain my magic, so I've been thinking about His Highness all morning, and I'm thrilled... and I feel tickled to have a day like that.
Simply turn your gaze toward His Highness and he will smile back at you immediately. Concentrate all of yourself on Your Highness so that you don't overlook conversations and expressions with His Highness.
How happy I am to have that time, just because I think so looses my face.
The carriage departing from the Marquis' residence quickly arrived at the detached palace within such time. With the help of His Highness, who got off the carriage first, as he got off the carriage, the colorful and beautiful flowers widened in sight.
"Beautiful...... nice place"
"Oh, this is said to be a detached house that the princess loved so much about 300 years ago. She died young, but the flowers of this palace blossom as beautiful as they were."
"Really? Is that why they call it the House of Flowers?
"Sounds like it. They say this place has a special technique, and the soil is better than anywhere else."
There are many beautiful gardens in the country, such as the royal palace, the gardens of nobility and the royal park.
But this place is not what it is.
It is beautifully prepared, but is it still natural somewhere? It's like getting lost in a flower garden in a fairy tale, it's that nature.
Unexpectedly looking around, I hear a slight laugh and move my gaze. Then His Highness smiled, "It's good to be able to bring Rachel here," he said.
"There's an interesting place over here. Why don't you go?
"Yeah, definitely."
As His Highness took his hand further into the back, there was a small, secluded wooden door to be hidden.
Without hesitation at the door, His Highness shook his hand and the area around the key glowed pale.
"Oh, this? This is so special that only royalty can get in. So these woody doors are actually sturdy and unbreakable."
"Am I okay to come in, too?
"Sure. Come on, over here"
When His Highness opened the door vigorously, it was filled with grass, trees, and blooming flowers on one side, from the foot to the sky looking up, unlike the tidy garden it had been until earlier.
"How lovely! It's like a tunnel of flowers."
"The gardener doesn't take care of this place."
"Really? And yet it blooms so vividly and beautifully?
"Ah. I'm sure the power of the Spirit works here, too"
I see, the power of the Spirit?
Sure, it's a strange place to feel as calm and gentle as that land of spirits. Look at the sky covered in flowers and grass as it burns in your eyes. Then, by the way, the light of the sun plunges in from the gap, and it looks like a path of light.
"Too beautiful... speechless"
"I get it. I was also surprised when I came here at a young age. I'm sure this must have been the first place I felt the power of the Spirit."
Reach for the light His Highness plugs in.
Then the light that illuminates His Highness's palms shines like a sparkling gem. I wonder if I accidentally saw it wrong, I blink, but the brilliance of light still remains the same. It's a strange sight as if he were alive.
"Your Highness, thank you for bringing me here."
"Rachel, thank you for coming with me"
At the same time as I convey my thanks to His Highness, His Highness's words overlap. Moreover, the fact that we were both uttering the same words accidentally matches each other's faces with Kyoton's. Ziva and each other understand the situation, as well as accidentally leaking laughter and shaking shoulders.
"Apparently, you feel the same way."
"Yeah, it seems so. Your Highness, I really enjoy it so much right now."
"Ah. That's exactly like me, too"
The petals fluttered up surrounding us with His Highness's words. An exclamation leaks into the petals that sprinkle upon us as if we were using magic.
Her Royal Highness gently touches my hair with her gentle, sweet eyes pointed at me. Dodged by his nearer Highness, he looks up from below and his Highness holds one petal in his hand. I guess the petals I danced on were on my hair.
"Apparently, the flowers are welcoming us."
His Royal Highness smiling at me with his eyes so narrowed that I took my breath away from him.
