NOT THE USUAL CINDERELLA (Season 2)

AWKWARD MOOD

Remembering that, Deanda feels lunch today is the right idea if you want to make two people who do not know each other and greet each other before it can have a chance to be able to chat with each other.

Although on the other hand, Deanda knows, Alaya's presence at the lunch event will fit a little more will make it awkward. Not only did she not know Alaya too well and was close to the girl, but she knew very well, the presence of Alaya who did not cause allergies to Alvero like the existence of other girls near Alvero, it would be quite uncomfortable for him.

I fully trust my husband. His Holiness Alvero loved and cherished me as his rightful wife. There's nothing I need to worry about Alaya or any other girl who in the future might as well not be allergic to the noble. I know, your noble eyes and heart are only on me.

Deanda said in the day while trying to return a smile towards Alaya who previously smiled towards her.

While Alvero himself, immediately frowned seeing that there was one person present in the middle of their lunch event without her guessing before.

Since when was my queen close to that girl? So he was also present at lunch today?

Alvero said in his heart as he pulled out a chair to be used by Deanda, after which he himself pulled out a chair for himself.

Alaya herself looks calm though unexpected when she sees the face of Alvero who looks at her at a glance with a strange look, which clearly questions why today she can join in the lunch event today, which is not the case, it makes Alaya feel a little uncomfortable.

“Erich, follow the afternoon message with us.” Once Alvero had sat in his position, right beside Deanda, Alvero immediately ordered Erich who was originally standing swiftly beside Alvero's chair to take a sitting position and have lunch with them.

“Good Your Majesty.” Without asking or expressing any opinion, Erich walked to the other side of the cafe table, then sat down beside Cleosa, because beside the girl was the only empty seat left.

Before sitting next to Cleosa, Erich slightly raised his head to Cleosa, as a sign that she was asking for permission to sit beside Cleosa. Seeing how Erich directed his eyes to, even without a smile, Cleosa hurriedly returned a nod of Erich's head with a smile on her lips that showed she was so happy at the moment.

Abella who deliberately left an empty seat beside Cleosa could only hold her smile while glancing at Deanda who was smiling at how happy Cleosa's face could be sitting next to Erich at this moment.

Given the status of Alvero and Deanda as king and consort of Gracetian, although Abella, Clare and Cleosa were devout of Deanda, they deliberately arranged a seat for Alvero and Deanda only two, respectively, the others sat in a row and faced each other with Alvero and Deanda sitting.

That way, Abella has the opportunity to put Cleosa at the end of the two, with one empty seat right next to her.

Abella's plans to date are going according to plan. Unfortunately, since Erich had remained as usual, not a word came out to talk to Cleosa.

Although Alvero tried to be mediocre, but of course Deanda's friends know enough about who is sitting in front of them at this time.

Seeing such a tense atmosphere, of course, made Deanda and Abella as pioneers of the lunch event look uncomfortable and misbehaved. The two of them tried to think hard for the atmosphere to melt, until it suddenly sounded back a commanding voice that sounded authoritative.

“Nona, could you please get me that crook for Erich? That's Erich.”'s favorite food In a calm and authoritative voice Alvero ordered Cleosa to pick up the croissant which happened to be located a little in the middle so far out of Erich's reach.

(Croisan (English: croissant) or sickle bread is a type of pastry (pastry) originating from France, so named because its shape resembles a crescent moon. According to legend, this bread originated in Europe to celebrate the victory of the Franks over the Umayyads in the battle at Tours in 732, with a crescent-like shape, in other legends, the bread was first created in Buda or Vienna in 1683 to celebrate the victory of the Christian forces over the Ottomans in the battle for the city, as an illustration of the Ottoman flag; the period of its manufacture according to the initial ordinance can take several days; therefore, it needs a high level of patience. Today, large quantities of chrysanthemums are usually made with machines. This bread has a multi-layered texture due to the technique of making it known as laminating, folding the dough many times and smeared with butter. In France, chrysanthemums are generally sold without filling and eaten without additional butter. But outside his home country, there are also chrysanthemums containing chocolate, meat, and so on).

“Good Your Majesty.” With a quick movement Cleosa grabbed the plate containing the croissants and thrust it to Erich.

“Thanks.” Erich spoke his short words with a tone and face looking flat, without looking towards Cleosa, making Deanda only able to take a deep breath, seeing how difficult Erich was to interact with others.

Even without a sound, without expression, Erich ate the chrysanthemum in silence. If Alvero had not said that the croissants were Erich's favorite cake, those who were there would not have believed that Erich really liked the cake. Because of the way he eats, Erich does not show that he likes croisan at all.

Seeing how cold Erich was, Deanda was sure, if only Alvero had not asked Cleosa to thrust the croissants towards Erich, she was sure, the man would definitely not ask for or take the cake even though he liked it very much.

On one side Deanda and Abella, even Alvero could see clearly how Erich looked to remain expressionless cold, while Cleosa was usually storyline and chatty, suddenly she turned into a quiet girl with a nervous and misbehaving attitude, with the occasional stealing a glance towards Erich whose eyes were straight on the food menu in front of her, or looking at Alvero, as if always ready and alert if at any time the employer needs something from him.

“Mmmm, I'm sorry for a moment Your Majesty, Empress.” Doubtfully Cleosa got up from her seat, planning to go to the toilet in order to calm down for a while and move away from the figure of Erich who was for her so difficult to approach, but still Erich's presence always makes his chest pound hard, and his eyes felt so hard to control not to look at the handsome man who always looked so neat even though his face looked cold with no expression.

“As soon as Alvero and Deanda nodded, agreeing with Cleosa's words, in a hurried gesture of nervousness, Cleosa intended to walk to the bathroom.

But due to being too nervous and hurriedly unconsciously Cleosa's leg hit the leg of the chair that was being occupied by Erich made Cleosa's body lose control of herself and fall down. However, quickly, Erich's arm suddenly moved, coiling around Cleosa's waist, holding her back so that the girl's body did not fall into a slump.
