There was not much Hanaya did other than focus on reading, grabbing as much information about the world as possible.
Well, in the luxurious residence of the Lances family was certainly all he could do. He wants to invite Rozetta and Annette again, but it seems impossible to remember just two days ago they met.
Staring out the window before finally deciding to take a walk, repel saturated after reading.
There is a garden behind the Lances family that is overgrown with various kinds of flowers. But only one that Hanaya really likes, a garden filled with Lavender flowers. It is now spring, therefore the flowers are blooming very much. Hanaya took a breath, before finally snapping as soon as the robe on the clothes on her.
"The night is cold, miss. Please pay attention to your health more importantly." as always, Brianna and her formal tone. Hanaya asked, when did this girl show her original interest. Hanaya wants to have more closeness with Brianna - not just a servant and master.
The last time another expression appeared on his face was only when Hanaya was conscious.
Clenching her robe, Hanaya followed Brianna into the room, the smell of tea letting out while Hanaya closed her eyes enjoying the scent. He himself was used to Brianna's temperament which seemed indifferent but was actually caring.
"You don't want to ask anything?" Hanaya said, wanting to dismantle the awkwardness between them. He could be in a quiet mood with the others, but not with Brianna. Hanaya wants to be close to him.
However, every word that girl said always froze the whole conversation "Your privacy doesn't deserve me to join the lady's camp." See? how can Hanaya cut the distance?
Could it be that his father didn't manage to tear down Brianna's wall?
Finally Hanaya chose resignation, sipping tea. Letting the aroma of tea relax his body.
The girl gasped as soon as she heard the loud sound of objects colliding. Brianna ran towards the source of the sound, followed by Hanaya at the back.
There was an injured blue bird with paper tied to its feet.
Anyone who finds this please reply, ×
Meanin? Before Hanaya digested the paper's simple intent, Brianna had taken the bird away and was quick to treat the animal.
"After the bird has healed, you can then reply to the letter, miss" Hanaya nodded in understanding.
Too bad.
"Who do you think this × is?" Brianna shook her head "I don't know who Miss is"
Hanaya watched the bird closely. Looks like the bird belongs to the nobility. Looking well groomed, the fur is very soft and there is a small circular gold bracelet on his right foot. Hanaya looked at him pityfully.
Just because the owner was so quick to send a letter, a bird as beautiful as this ended up getting hurt. Thankful only the tip of his wing was broken. It may take a little while to heal.
"Have you sent an invitation to lady Rozetta and lady Annette?"
"Miss, they accepted your invitation." Well, Hanaya invited them to have some more tea together. Expel the boredom that haunts.
***
Hanaya stared at her reflection in the mirror. How many times he glazed, Hanaya will always be amazed and envious of the figure of Viviana.
Without feeling a week passed.
Today he's going to the palace, following an official conversation with Javier. I think he's impatient.
The horse carriage finally drove. As usual, observing the activity from behind the train always made Hanaya feel comfortable.
This time she was wearing a dark blue dress with her hair in the booth. Hanaya descended, staring nervously at the majestic palace. In a few months this will be his new home. The complementary world of Hanaya happiness.
"Welcome Miss Viviana, the Crown Prince asks me to escort you, come." Hanaya follows the palace maid with a pounding heart, while Brianna is put under arrest. She was not allowed to follow her nonanya so the girl just followed the instructions obediently.
"This is where Miss is" Hanaya froze, the sight she saw making her breath stifled.
Javier and a girl prettier than him were talking. There was nothing special but Hanaya felt a bit of a strange sensation. More precisely fear - that the girl he thought of as Madelin will seize his position.
"Your Majesty, Miss Viviana has arrived." Hanaya drew a forced smile as the naturalist might try to ignore the feeling of the heart.
Javier approached her, peeping at her hand, but Hanaya's eyes were only directed at Madelin who did not show any expression. Only a faint smile when the eyes of the two met.
"Welcome lady Viviana," Hanaya smiled slightly in response to Javier's welcome, the man holding her to the table where Madelin had stood.
"Include, lady Madelin, my best friend." the woman with her beautiful emerald eyes bowed, full of elegance, until Hanaya looked at her with admiration.
Recalling Rozetta's words, another lady quickly imitated him. His attitude and manner are like that of the Queen, but it is this side that makes Hanaya feel threatened.
"Hail me, Madelin. I heard a lot about you from the crown prince, you are so beautiful" Hanaya was stunned, Javier told Madelin? That means - this man has fallen for her?
Finding this warm atmosphere, Hanaya's vigilance unraveled like water vapor replaced with gratitude so aware Madelin would not threaten his position. Of course, Javier seems to love her.
How ever the plot written will not change just like that, right?
Even though strange characters keep popping up? Hope so.
"I'm sorry, Your Honor." Said Madelin, who seemed to be aware of the closeness of the two. Hanaya steals the lyrics, apparently Javier's eyes are not even tidied to Madelin, the warm eyes are only focused on Hanaya creating a hue on his face. Then rest assured Hanaya that he is precious.
Madelin was not threatening.
Not long after the tone sounded, Javier got up, bent his knees before him "May I take the most beautiful lady in Utopia to dance, it is my honor if you please"
Hanaya. Feeling very privileged, the warm gaze and gentle smile of it - finally Hanaya was able to ascertain her position firmly.
Receiving it with a feeling of "It's an honor for me to dance with the Utopian sun" Javier chuckled, leading Hanaya to chuckle as well.
She flinched as soon as Javier pulled her in, making her second position close to intimacy, Hanaya simply lowered her head, letting Javier take the lead completely. His exploding heartbeat tempered nervous and happy combined.
"Lady, I'm so offended that you stare at the ground constantly compared to my face" Oh my God! His voice and even his breathing made Hanaya feel weak.
This charm is too strong. He was only speechless as soon as Javier lifted his chin gently. The touch was felt very.
And Hanaya lost her air supply as soon as the man's gaze was seen, there was only Hanaya's figure filling her black netra. Full of cravings, as if the man wanted to have it. The sail that made Hanaya's entire back goosebumps and his blood rippled.
"Yes-Yes Your Majesty
"I would like to make a confession, sorry if I reproach you impolitely. Please listen well"
His heart burst increased as if it was about to overhaul his entire ribs falling, melting into the ground so strong and wild.
"I've loved the lady, since the beginning of your debutante party. If you want to accept this ring as proof, too soon indeed but this feeling is undeniable" Hanaya felt held high in an instant.
The rare amethys gems glittered over the diamond ring, while the music chanted and Javier bent once more in front of him in hope. The flower garden that surrounds becomes a backdrop that increasingly romanticizes this atmosphere, penetrating to the deepest thoughts. It was unthinkable for Hanaya to feel his visualization directly. This is more exciting than when reading.
Stretching out his hand, Hanaya said "Do I look like I'm going to reject you? I don't think so" but Javier's changed face suddenly made Hanaya slip up.
"If the lady doesn't like me then forget about it. I don't want to make you feel uncomfortable if it's just a one-sided feeling" Hanaya froze, but her body responded faster before her brain digested, she found herself kissing Javier.
The man froze. There was a pause between the two, before the man invaded it gently. Hanaya was lulled, hesitantly replying she could feel the corner of the man's lips drawn.
Hanaya was sure that after this she would be extremely embarrassed.
***
The Crown Prince escorted him, compared to Hanaya who looked down in shame, the man seemed ordinary as if nothing had happened.
"Your Majesty, I have something to talk to you about. It hit the area in the west" all the shame disappeared replaced by shock. This man-his voice made Hanaya tremble.
His heart melted so Xavier, the man with a bright display of daylight but gloomy aura was not disturbed in the presence of the slightest. As if there were just the two of them.
Hanaya is completely ignored. He doesn't know why it feels so sad. His body spontaneously stiffened once Xavier glanced at him for a moment. Then pass.
Feeling Hanaya's body response brings Javier together
"Xavier is like that, but he's not a mean person, he just doesn't know how to express"
Hanaya put on a forced smile then nodded.
Going to ride the train, when Javier kissed his forehead made everyone freeze.
"Get home safely, huh?" Hanaya nodded in embarrassment, while Brianna stared at the interaction as hard to decipher.
"Please take good care of him" Brianna who was aware of where the destination was headed nodded.
"Okay, Your Majesty"
The horse carriage moved out of the palace courtyard while Hanaya was still the bereaved of shame and happiness before Brianna's words sounded.
"He proposed to you?" Hanaya stiffened, rubbing the ring on her mid-finger reflex.
"Yes-yes, that's how it is"
"Miss, are you sure you want to enter the palace?" Under Brianna's serious gaze, Hanaya nodded. That was his life's destiny, wasn't it?
Hanaya only lived it by changing a bit from the original Viviana, to strengthen its existence.
Breath sounds heard. Then words of warning like the other day fell down again. Shaking Hanaya's faith.
"Not everything that looks like it looks. Just because the water is calm does not mean there is no danger. The human heart is not something that can be immersed according to action, Miss"
