“Good heavens! What’s that!”
I jumped frantically, pointing at the sky, trying to divert the conversation. If the talk of a ‘fiancé’ or ‘future spouse’ came up here, it wouldn’t be strange if a garden tree was uprooted in its entirety.
Even though I promised to try my best not to grow up so I wouldn’t have to marry, if Kirian found out that there was a plan for an engagement behind his back, his sense of betrayal would be immeasurable.
“Oh my word! Can such a thing be?!”
Unfortunately, nobody fell for my impassioned speech.
“What passed by?”
His Highness feigned a look at the sky with an awkward smile.
Meanwhile, Kirian never took his eyes off His Highness.
“There’s nothing there, you know.”
Kirian crossed his legs while sitting in an air chair, folding his arms.
“What did you just say, Prince His Highness?”
“I was with Princess Reina.”
“Best friends!”
I hurriedly interjected into their conversation.
“We’re best friends!”
Shooting a desperate glance at His Highness, he slowly nodded his head.
“Yes. Inseparable best friends, with Princess Reina.”
But Kirian, who I thought would easily acquiesce, appeared greatly shocked, contrary to expectation.
“Bes… friends?”
Stammering, Kirian’s eyes trembled as he looked at me. The desperate look in his eyes made me momentarily wonder if there was a hidden meaning to the term ‘best friend.’
“I… I tried to be a best friend…”
Kirian whispered quietly, clenching his fist.
Unknowingly, I started a countdown. Tree uprooting in 3 seconds, 2 seconds, 1 second…
Kirian finally lifted his head. For a moment, his eyes seemed to swell, but I couldn’t confirm it as he rubbed them vigorously.
“I need to try harder.”
A vague smile and a seemingly cheerful tone. Outwardly smiling, but unmistakably a wounded look.
“You can be a best friend too.”
In a moment of weakness, I added.
Kirian slowly shook his head.
“You don’t need to lie, Nuna. You can only have one best friend.”
Then Kirian’s intense gaze once again settled on His Highness.
“It’s okay. I’ll try harder to become a best friend.”
Somehow, the sound of trying harder seemed like a threat to eliminate a competitor.
“Princess Reina, shall we take a walk in the garden?”
His Highness signaled to move somewhere out of Kirian’s sight, changing the subject. I gave a subtle nod, barely noticeable to Kirian. There was still much to discuss, and time was short.
“Sure, us.”
As we stood, Kirian also gave up his air chair and began to follow us with short strides.
“Nuna, Nuna, I want to go too.”
But I couldn’t get entangled in Kirian’s pace any longer. I had firmly decided to go. Kirian seemed to like me fairly well now, so I thought I could say this much.
“We’re going for a walk alone. Can you wait here?”
“We have something to talk about just between best friends.”
The two exchanged tense glances. Kirian’s eyes were sharp as a cat’s, sparks flying, while His Highness maintained a gentle face but never backed down.
In the moment I thought a tree might be uprooted again, Kirian slumped his shoulders and hung his head.
“If you’re not a best friend… you can’t even take a walk together…”
Kirian rubbed his eyes several times.
When he lifted his head, his eyes were red and swollen. Even this was transformed into innocent sorrow by his natural beauty.
Kirian grabbed my sleeve with his small trembling hand.
“Nuna… not being able to walk together today doesn’t mean we can’t ever, right?”
“Mmhmm.”
Kirian’s earnest eyes tugged at my heart, but I swiftly withdrew my arm.
“Next time, let’s take a walk next time.”
I quickly moved along with His, but a whimpering sound from behind caught my ankle.
“Sniff. I can… be close friends too…”
When I glanced back, I saw a small figure huddled with its face buried in its arms. Its slumped shoulders trembled occasionally.
In the end, I had no choice but to turn back.
“No, Kirian. Let’s go together.”
I rationalized it as not wanting to hate, but I had to admit it.
I was becoming weak towards Kirian. His irresistible beauty played a part, but I became attached to the child himself, Kirian.
“Really?”
Kirian came hopping over as if he had never been disheartened. His eyes were quite dried, but I did not pry.
“Yes. Let’s go.”
When I reached out my hand, Kirian grabbed it without hesitation. Then, he looked at His with victorious eyes.
“You wanted to take a walk with me too!”
His raised an eyebrow and chuckled.
“It would be nice if the Duke could join us too.”
As the walk began, I deliberately directed my steps toward the northwest garden. The Duke and Duchess were likely entertaining King Crisia in the reception room there.
I was certain that if the Duchess spotted Kirian with us, she would come to help.
I couldn’t stop Kirian from following me no matter how hard I tried to shake him off.
There were matters I needed to discuss with His, and it would be a disaster if Kirian overheard. The only person who could definitively control Kirian at such times was the Duchess.
