Chapter 24
I clasped the note firmly, holding the note in my hand. Oh, actually, my drawing skills are not very good. Of course, speaking differently in this age group.
A 6-year-old child is above average if she knows how to delicately draw eyes, nose and mouth. Maybe I can be mistaken for being pretty talented in drawing!
‘Hehe.’
I drank a bowl of kimchi soup for no reason, and with excitement, I checked who the other children were against. But the atmosphere is strange.
“Ah! Why you?”
……When I said that I had an ominous foreboding for some reason, Cedric, who pulled out the note after me, burst into a small dissatisfaction as soon as he opened the note in his hand.
Cedric was waving a note that said ‘Jake’ in annoyance. Somehow, yesterday’s caramel incident seemed to make the two of them a lot- a little far apart. Haha.
“Who is talking.”
And I saw Jake responding to Cedric’s dissatisfaction with the same complaints. Jake wasn’t quite annoyed by Cedric’s provocation, and he also stiffened his face when he pulled Cedric.
‘What a good thing. It seems that the two of them have become awkward, but I have to draw them face to face.’
Jake got heartbroken. Both of them were in the same situation, but it seemed to me that Jake, my close friend, was more mindful than Cedric.
As I kept watching their war of nerve, my head was sore, and I turned my head.
Then I could see Prince Nicholas checking his note with an indifferent expression as usual.
Who is it? I was curious. Hmm-hmm, if this is not me, I will try to come. We weren’t very close, but I was curious about it. I brazenly approached Nicholas and asked a question.
“Who did you get?”
“Alice Rose.”
Oh, my eyes glistened.
Although it is much earlier than the timing of the original story, is this the moment of the first fall in love for Nicolas, the original male protagonist while drawing the face of the original female protagonist, Alice? Oh my, why am I all thrilled?
‘Ah, but they’re still 7 years old.’
However, it wasn’t until late that they realized that they were still in love and that it wasn’t until the age to find rational feelings that they could say anything, and decided to refrain from this foolishness.
“I got my brother.”
And because I was with Nicholas, Nina showed me a note that said ‘Nicholas’ and approached me. I wanted it to be me, so I showed my note to Nina.
“I got the Princess.”
“……Is that so? Hmm, well. Miss Saeron, please draw well.”
Maybe I am a little bit burdened, when she came to me suddenly, and Nina seemed surprised unlike usual. But I don’t give up.
Until the end, I gave an answer mixed with flattery and sincerity.
“Absolutely. It is the face of Her Grace the Princess, not anyone else. It will look the best.”
“……!”
Ninaina slightly raised her eyebrows to my answer.
Then she turned her head around and replied briefly.
“Well, suit yourself.”
“Yes.”
Well, it wasn’t once or twice that Nina set me in a rough manner, and I wasn’t weak enough to hurt my heart to this extent, and rather I had a smile on my mouth. Now that I’ve said this, I have to draw really well.
‘Oh, come to think of it.Then is Alice drawing me?’
Alice who happened to be in charge of the last order, and everyone’s opponents were decided, so the only person to draw me was Alice. As expected, as I looked around, I saw Alice wandering from the other side holding a note and didn’t approach me first.
If you just stay here, you won’t be me.
I approached, calling for Alice with a moderate shout, not too loud.
“Alice!”
“La, Lady Saeron?”
“Yes, I thought that Lady Alice chose me, so I came. Hehe.”
We weren’t as close as yet, so I deliberately laughed and made a gap for Alice, who is highly wary. No, but why is Alice suddenly apologizing to me? Why?
“……Tha, that’s right. I’m sorry.”
“Yes? Why is Lady Alice sorry to me? The Lady didn’t do anything wrong with me.”
“Well, I think the Lady will be disappointed because I couldn’t draw well…”
Upon hearing Alice’s unconfident answer, I carefully reached out to her.
Alice hesitated and took my hand. As the warmth passed between her hands, Alice’s cold hands felt a little pulse.
In that state, I said firmly.
“No matter how the Lady draws me, I will not be disappointed. A monster with three eyes or one nostril is okay. Even if you draw the stupid beasts from the fairy tale and say it’s me, I will be happy just that the Lady drew the picture.”
“Re, really…?”
“Of course.”
I laughed. So, don’t be pressured and comfortably draw.
