Daughter of the Emperor

What kind of chase was this that we would do it on broad daylight? I could feel that the people passing by were looking at me in bewilderment.

Oh, I knew I was not acting like a princess. No, it’s okay, I was still only three years old! This was normal at this age! Again, Assisi didn’t stop. This rotten man! My fury was giving me strength. I needed to run faster. However, at that moment when I stepped out, something caught me on the tip of my foot. I knew that…

Uh! I will fall over!

“… huh? ”

I didn’t fall over. I could feel someone’s hands grabbing me before I felt the floor. U, uwah, I almost fell. When I opened my eyes, there was a big shadow in front of me.

“Are you…alright?”

That golden green eyes.

That surprised me. He was so far ahead, so how did he come back so fast? I was thanking him, but I was quite surprised. No, but that’s not important right now! With a deep breath, I grabbed Assisi’s tie.

“I got you!”

I captured him!

Assisi’s facial expression changed as I laugh.

“Were you following me?”

“Yes, I was! ”

“Why…?”

What do you mean by why?

“To see you, of course.”

Just who else would I be running after?

(nod, nod). As I nodded, Assisi’s facial expression changed. Even his slightly frowning face was beautiful. It’s strange seeing him this close. How could this guy be so pretty? His beauty was on par with mine. Well, he seemed a little cold, but that was not a problem at all.

“You’re Assisi, right?”

“Huh? Yes.”

Yeah, I already knew it. I smiled as brightly as possible.

“Hi, I’m Ariadna!”

“Yes, I know.”

Assisi nodded while his tie was still in my hand. I laughed again while looking at that. I couldn’t stop smiling. I should have done this from the start. I wondered why I hesitated so much.

I reached to him closer, smiling. I could feel Assisi trying to pull his body back. However, it wasn’t easy because of the tie in my hand.

“Did you do something bad to me?”

“Sorry?”

“Why do you always run away?”

“Well, the thing is…”

Even his flustered face was lovely. It was better being pretty, whether he’s a man or a woman.

“Is it…”

In my voice, which called his attention, Assisi silently faced my eyes. His pupils were so breathtaking that I took a quiet gulp.

“Because you don’t like me?”

“What? No, of course not. Princess, how could I?”

I was somewhat surprised by his denial that came right out. Assisi shook his head in dismay.

“Princess, how could I?”
