There was a lot of annoying scolding.

 

“Is Uncle not going? I’m not familiar with this place.”

 

“You just have to play in front of me.”

 

“I want to do a lot of sightseeing…”

 

I want to see here and theeeeere too.

 

Even when I sent a pitiful look at him, Uncle was unmoved.

 

He was really bad.

 

However, someone gently grabbed my hand from the side and pulled me.

 

I turned my head and saw Russphe’s hand.

 

“Excuse me…”

 

“Ah, Russphe!”

 

His face turned red again.

 

“I-I will tell you.”

 

“Really?”

 

“Yeah, I come here often.”

 

I smiled wide with joy.

 

“Wow, thanks! Russphe is really kind.
Then let’s go over there and play, and take a look!”

 

Instead of answering, he nodded quietly.

 

I secretly stuck out my tongue at Uncle and followed Russphe in a hurry.

 

As soon as he opened the large transparent glass door leading to the garden, the smell of flowers was enough to tickle my nose.

 

Russphe and I wandered non stop along the wide garden path.

 

There were also many adults in the garden in dresses or robes.


 

There are no tall flowers or trees in the garden here, that’s why you can see far away even if you step out a little.

 

“Whoa.
It’s my favorite yellow flower.
Come over here, Russphe!”

 

I squatted down in front of the yellow flowers that bloomed, stretching their necks to get the sunlight.

 

And without taking my eyes off of them, I called Russphe with my hand.

 

“Russphe, do you like flowers?”

 

“…I never thought I liked it, but today… place… to see.”

 

Russphe, who was crouching next to me, murmured softly.

 

“Hm? You don’t like it?”

 

“N-No.
I like flowers too.”

 

“Really? Then we like the same thing, don’t we!”

 

Russphe nodded eagerly.

 

“Huh? Look at this!”

 

I found small purple flowers hiding in the corner of a pile of bright yellow flowers.

 

Mom said I shouldn’t pick flowers, but I wanted to let Russphe know.

 

I picked one of the three little purple flowers and showed it to Ruspe.

 

“Look at this, it’s the same color as your eyes.”

 

“Me?”

 

“Yeah.
Even though it also has the same color as His Imperial Majesty’s eyes.
Shall I show you something more amazing?”

 

Then Russphe gave me a small nod with a curious face.

 

I made a small hole with my fingernail in the stem just behind the flower.

 

Then I rolled the stem into a circle and carefully inserted the tip into it.

 

I handed out the finished purple ring to Russphe.

 

“Now, it’s a present!”

 

Receiving it with both hands, Russphe placed the flower in his palm, at a loss for what to do.

 

I picked up the flower ring again and put it on Russphe’s second finger.

 

“This is how you do it.
Isn’t it pretty?”

 

“Ah.”

 

Russphe stared at the flower ring on his finger for a long time.

 

Chill.

 


I was about to touch the yellow petals again, but I felt a sudden sting.

 

Although I was startled and looked around, there was nothing.

 

I got up abruptly and called for Russphe, who was still unable to take his eyes off the flower ring.

 

“Let’s go somewhere else.”

 

Flinch.

 

But for some reason, the more I walked around the garden, the more I suddenly felt a strange feeling.

 

It was like a cold chill, and it felt like it had seeped in when I was suddenly trying to see the future.

 

Is it just me?

 

Russphe seemed unconcerned.

 

“Are you okay?”

 

I asked him just in case.

 

“Hm?”

 

“Nothing.”

 

I guess I’m the only one who feels that way.

 

Flinch.

 

As I took a step further, the strange chill gradually turned into a feeling of fear.

 

Involuntarily, I felt as if my feet were being pushed forward step by step.

 

“Ah.”

 

A chill like frost, and even a sting in my buzzing ears made me tremble without realizing it.

 

Even then, it didn’t go away, so I stopped walking and hugged my body with both arms.

 

What’s wrong with me?

 

I was overcome with a strange feeling that if I let go of my focus, I would be unknowingly possessed and go somewhere.

 

“…ka.”

 

“…Huh?”

 

“Aika, what’s wrong?”

 

Russphe looked at me and asked.

 

I turned hastily in contemplation.

 

I can’t.
I have to go home.

 

All I could think about was that I had to go to Uncle as soon as possible.

 

“Russphe, I’m sorry! I have to go to Uncle!”
