Side Story 1: Summer Vacation (3)
When I arrived in the bedroom, my luggage and Cassius were neatly laid.
I expected to use separate rooms, but the villa’s servants smiled kindly and put the two of us in one room.
Well, it was embarrassing, but it didn’t matter, so I decided to stay still.
It’s time to sleep like that.
That was the beginning of the incident.
“You’re tired, aren’t you? Go to bed, Cassius.”
I said, turning my head to Cassius lying next to me.
Then, his goldeye shone in the soft candlelight.
“Well, I don’t think I can fall asleep easily.”
“Oh, no. We have to go to bed early to play as much as we can tomorrow.”
“But…….”
Cassius, who hesitated to speak, eventually stood up from his position, unable to resist.
“Cassius?”
As soon as I was puzzled by his very serious-looking profile, Cassius opened his mouth with a serious look.
“I can’t sleep because I’m nervous.”
“What?”
I stared at him, wondering what he was talking about.
“It’s been so long since I’ve slept in the same bed with you…….”
Cassius, who brought it up, had sparkling eyes like a 12-year-old boy with a fresh crush.
‘Oh, my God.’
I want to tease Cassius again.
‘Isn’t this addiction?’
But isn’t it so cute?
He has a bigger head than me and is a burly adult man with angry muscles hidden under his clothes, but he is still so cute.
“Well, I can’t help it. I’ll help you relax.”
I hid my black heart and approached Cassius casually.
“Huh? How?”
I smiled at Cassius, who looked like an innocent lamb.
“Like this!”
Then I attacked the defenceless Cassius and began to tickle him.
“Oh, wait, Yerine! Wait, not there!”
Cassius couldn’t resist and burst out laughing, and I tried my best to tickle him.
“Come on, you’re not nervous anymore, are you?”
“Yerine, please, no, no, I can’t stand it anymore!”
Cassius, who had been suffering, turned over his body with tears hanging from his inner lashes.
His body rolled around, unable to focus on an unexpected attack.
“Be prepared.”
“Oh, wait a minute. Wait, ack!”
It was followed by a fierce blood war that resembled the final match of the wrestling match.
Cassius, who couldn’t resist my tickling after a close battle, eventually bounced off the bed with a thump.
“Where are you running!”
I also ran after him running away from the bed.
The moment I reached for his neck, which was revealed, Cassius turned around and hugged me tightly in his arms.
“Huh?”
Cassius hugged me hard and couldn’t move both arms at all.
“Now you’ve become quiet.”
“Oh, let me go!”
I moved around, back and forth, to release Cassius’s arms, but I couldn’t untie it.
He lifted me into the air.
Then I knew it by intuition.
From now on, I’ll be punished for tickling Cassius.
“Now, wait a minute, Cassius, let go of this.”
“No, I can’t stand it anymore. I’ll never let you slide tonight.”
Cassius said as he approached the bed with me.
“You shouldn’t keep teasing me.”
I shook my head with a serious face and said.
“For that punishment, you will be sentenced to twelve hours of blanket-clothes.”
“What?”
Without even giving me a chance to make a final argument, Cassius quickly put me on the bed.
And he started rolling me in the blanket.
“Oh, wait a minute! Oh!”
“This should be less of a joke.”
“Wait, Cassius, oh, really!”
Eventually, I had to spend the night like a quilt-dried pupa.
And the cheeky Cassius took me in his arms, made me unable to move, and slept soundly.

When everything in the villa melted into the dark darkness, only the candle in the middle of the villa management room did not go out and burn.
“I’m so thrilled. How many years has it been since I’ve achieved this …….”
Clayton took off his glasses and said, rubbing around his eyes.
His face was red, and his eyes were filled with tears.
He wiped the sparkling tears with a handkerchief under the fireplace light.
Maya looked at him and carefully opened her mouth.
“The two have been dating since they were in the Academy, right?”
“Yes, so the ministers were secretly expecting that the two would be married soon.”
Clayton replied, reusing his monoculars.
“Both of them are already adults. Marriage is too much, but I thought they would at least have an engagement ceremony soon. But……….”
Clayton, who was speaking in a furious voice, sighed deeply and hit his chest as if he was frustrated.
Maya, who glanced sideways at Clayton, opened her mouth in a low voice.
“The two of them have shown no sign of it.”
“Yes, I don’t know exactly why, but the two have met often, but haven’t made any progress at all…….”
“That’s why you were so moved.”
Maya smiled awkwardly at Clayton, who was in tears again.
“Actually, the two were so consistent that I thought we’d be together no matter how many years later, but I was still nervous. His Majesty will not see anyone else unless the Duke, and it will be hard to find a woman just like the Duke.”
“Oh, yes.”
“But they’re not even engaged, so I’m not sure.”
Chester replied, placing the glass he had gently placed on his lap back on the wooden table.
“Of course, I personally hope that both of you will go well apart from political issues.”
Adding in a calm tone, he smiled, stroking his brown moustache.
“Anyway, maybe because they’re on vacation, I think both of them look good together and I’m glad they’re on good terms.”
Maya rubbed her hands and talked in a lively voice.
“Tomorrow, I need to prepare the meal upstairs, right? Should I prepare it in advance?”
“No.”
Chester shook his head.
“It’s good to have the meal ready but if you prepare too early, it’ll cool off. They must be tired of riding in the carriage all day, and……..”
Chester shut his mouth, not sure what to say.
The other two stared at Chester, who repeatedly opened his mouth and closed it again as if the word only lingered on the tip of his tongue and did not come out.
“You heard it earlier. That’s how intense it is, um…”
“Oh, okay, you can stop talking.”
Chester nodded as he saw Clayton interrupting as if he knew what he’s going to say even if he didn’t say anything.
“Anyway, Maya, wouldn’t they be tired the next day and wake up late?”
“Oh, yeah. Then I’ll just prepare the ingredients. Prepare things that can be served in advance.”
“Yes.”
“I’d appreciate it if you could prepare a lot of nutritious food.”
At Clayton’s subsequent request, Chester looked confident and crossed his arms.
“Oh, of course. Just leave it to me.”
“That’s right. But you know what?”
“Yes.”
Clayton unfolded his index finger and opened his mouth with a grim face.
“I have a question.”
Clayton, who had used up the tableware, left the room and asked.
“Is the bed in that room okay?”
Chester exclaimed a short sigh of “Ah” at Clayton’s question.
Soon, he made a slightly awkward expression and blushed his ears.
“It’s a sturdy product, but…….”
“I know that, but you heard it earlier. Was it strong enough not to break?”
Listening quietly, Chester opened his mouth after a long silence.
“I’ll replace it with a stronger one soon.”
Feeling relieved by his words, Clayton stepped in peace.

“So, did they both get there safely?”
A woman looked back as she stared at the shaking candle at the voice of a man in the dark.
A man was wearing a shirt and lowering his eyes at the end of the woman’s gaze, who stretched her shiny hair long under the light of a blurry candle.
In the dark, a man with shining green eyes moved, and the black necklace hanging on his neck clicked.
“Yes, They arrived safely.”
“That’s a relief. Anything else other than that?”
When the man asked, the woman lowered her head and looked over the correspondence in front of her.
“Sesame seeds are pouring out of the two. Other than that, there’s nothing else.”
Then the woman rolled up the letter again and put it aside.
The man staring at her smiled and leaned against the wall.
“That’s not surprising.”
“We’ll know more when we get there tomorrow.”
A smile spread around her mouth as she spoke in a warm voice.
“Please give my regards.”
When the man’s cracked voice cut through the air, the woman paused her hand holding the flag pens.
His green eyes glowed with longing in front of her who raised her head.
“I can’t meet them even if I want to.”
It was a quiet voice, but the woman could see that the voice was slightly cracked.
And the fact that the man’s face is half covered by the shadow is depressing.
“Okay.”
After a brief silence, the woman’s answer rang out.
***
I don’t know when I fell asleep.
When I opened my eyes, the sun was already in the middle, and Cassius was rubbing his eyes.
Walking out of bed, we pulled the strings to call the servant, ordered them to prepare a meal, and then we dressed up lightly.
When the two of us went down to the dining room together, the smell of savoury omelettes and subtle tea scents spread throughout the mansion.
It looks delicious.
While imagining the meal in front of me, I was thinking happily, and my eyes met Clayton in the dining room.
As soon as he saw me for some reason, he opened his mouth as if surprised, and was restless with a confused expression.
“Good morning, Clayton.”
Cassius, unable to see Clayton’s helpless appearance, greeted him and walked past him.
And naturally, he took out the chair across from his seat and smiled at me.
“Oh, thank you, Cassius.”
“This is nothing.”
When I sat on the chair, Cassius pushed the chair back in, and then went back to his seat.
Clayton, who couldn’t shut his mouth, turned his head toward Cassius as soon as I sat down.
“Your Majesty, isn’t that too much, isn’t it?”
Cassius, who did not know what he meant, looked at him with his reproachful voice.
“Huh? What?”
Clayton looked more frustrated by his reaction, but Cassius still didn’t seem to understand why he had that face.
Cassius wasn’t the only one who wondered about Clayton’s violent reaction.
“Clayton, is there a problem?”
As soon as he heard my voice, Clayton erased the look he had just made and opened his mouth with great caution.
“Well, that’s…….”
“Huh?”
Even if I tilted my head, Clayton did not answer easily, and he hesitated for a long time before speaking out.
“Well, Duke, I’m asking you very carefully, but I wonder if you’re body feeling well……?”
“Body? No problem.”
“What? Last night……..”
Then Clayton breathed in the middle and shut up.
As if he said something he shouldn’t have said.
“What did you do last night?”
Cassius asked him with a strange face, but Clayton did not answer.
“Oh, Your Majesty……….”
Rather, he asked Cassius a question in reverse.
“I understand that you came down because you didn’t want the meal to cool down. But this isn’t right!”
Clayton alternately looked at Cassius and shouted.
“Let the Duke walk on her own both feet without help.”
‘Help? Me?’
I looked at Clayton with a strange look, but he spoke enthusiastically.
“Your Majesty should have carried the Duke on his back or hugged you! Or you can call the servants!”
“Hey, wait a minute.”
No matter how much I thought about it, the situation seemed to be going strangely, so I raised my hand to stop Clayton.
“Clayton, I don’t know why, but I’m fine. You just saw me walk very well.”
Cassius also spoke in a calm voice.
“And Clayton, carrying the Duke of Spade on my back or carrying her is rather my wish. It’s the Duke herself who stops it.”
He looked at me and spoke boldly.
“In that sense, should I just hug her everywhere and get her upset in the future? I don’t know the reason, but what’s the thing that made you angry like this, Clayton.”
“Yes, I hate it.”
“Look, it’s the Duke who refuses.”
Cassius, who naturally fluted, slowly blinked his shiny gold eyes with a pod in his hands.
“So Clayton, what the hell is wrong with you? You’ve been saying meaningless things. The Duke herself has been saying that she’s okay.”
“No way. There’s no way the Duke will be okay, you may be overdoing it!”
Clayton, who dyed his face red, clenched his fists and shouted in a pretty furious voice, mixed with embarrassment and frustration
“Didn’t you overwork the Duke last night to the extent make the bed break?”
