Tearmoon Empire Story
Episode 48: A Little Mistake
It was Abel, who was used to riding horses, who regained his composure first.
"Look, Princess Meer, open your eyes. The view from the top of the horse is quite flavorful, isn't it?
"Oh yeah...... then"
Meer took a small, deep breath, then never opened her eyes.
"Well..."
A slightly higher point of view than usual. It was a slightly fresh view, unlike the landscape seen from high places such as the castle.
A refreshing breeze quietly soothes the hair.
I was scared until earlier, and the swing when the horse walks is kind of, comfortable now.
- Something's going to make me sleepy...
Gently put her cheeks on Abel's back, and Meer closes her eyes slightly.
"Whoa, whoa, hi, princess, what... oh, look, look. Your squire lady is here, too."
"Oh, it's true. Anne!"
Meer waved, probably, to Anne, who looked far away.
Good health......, with both hands!
… Familiarity creates alarm.
"Here, princess, let go of my hand...... Huh!?
"Oh?"
Moment after moment, Meer's body leans.
"Hiaaah!
With the screams, Meer's body fell to the ground... duh! and it sounded amazing......
But the impact was smaller than I expected.
"Ah......, oh? What the hell happened?
"There he is..."
Abel's voice heard right next door. Meer opens her frightening eyes......,
"Ah, Prince Abel! Is this... Huh!?
So, Meer first noticed! That I'm in Abel's arms!
That Abel fell with me to help herself and hugged me!!
"Oh, wow!?
Unexpectedly, a henchy scream came from my mouth. My heart rang from time to time, loudly.
- So, what are you doing? Don't you need to make a scene trying to get Prince Abel to hold you? When I dance, I've been through that...
Meer tells herself yes and manages to hold her chest high.
- Yes, in the first place, Prince Abel is still a child. Eight years younger than me...
"What's wrong, Princess Meer? Are you hurt anywhere?
Worried, Abel glances at my face. by those serious eyes, shot through by a sharp gaze,
- Oh, shit, don't stare at me like that!
Meer turned away, turning her face bright red.
"It's okay, it's okay. Prince Abel, it's okay.
"Oh, well. Sorry, excuse me."
Abel walked away from Meer like she was in trouble. The face was, sooner or later, sinking a little.
"Oh, don't get me wrong, Prince Abel. I don't like being stuck with you, that's not what I mean."
"Yeah, yeah... I know."
With that said, Abel's face won't clear.
When I look at her disappointed, lonely face, Meer kind of feels unsettled.
- Oh, this is, I'm sure it is. When Prince Abel hates me here, it's because I can't get reinforcements out...
Isn't that why you don't feel this way? I didn't even think so, but I was forced to convince myself, Meer thinks.
- What can I do... Oh, yes!
As Meer approached Abel one step, she grabbed the hand with both hands.
"Become, Princess Meer?
"Earlier, thank you for your help, Prince Abel!
That said, I approached Abel much closer. It approaches the point where the face and face stick together anymore, and stares at Abel still upwards.
- People, when they're closer than they need to be, they distance themselves from nature. You just have to experience it, I can do it!
"Oh, uh, um..., wow, okay... Okay, so, uh, could you, uh, just step away, please?
Abel with a bright red face just turned away,
"Look, even you, aren't you turning away? Why did you turn away?
Meer had a garlic-winning grin.
"It's..."
"I was just like you, Prince Abel."
"Become..."
- Because I am delicate, I get nervous when I get closer to others than I need to. That's all I'm talking about.
"But I'm probably stronger than you..."
"Oh, you hate to lose."
On a strange note, Abel was cute to lose, and Meer laughed.
- Are you trying to say it's more delicate than me?
Meer tilting her neck hadn't noticed.
There is also a slight difference between Abel and Meer in how nervous conditions are "when you get closer than others need you" and "when you get closer to the girl you like".
Even though Meer herself was nervous being approached by a "little concerned boy".
