Chapter 48
"You\'re not a kid."
W-what is he saying? Then I thought of him knowing Jennet\'s identity right away. Goosebumps.
"W-what do you mean. Why am I not a kid? I\'m 7. Don\'t you even know that?"
Then the black idiot turned his face to face me in the same position. The crimson eyes looked into mine. Then he smiled like a fox.
"Aha. 7."
"Yeahhh!"
"Are you 7? Really?"
I tried my hardest not to look suspicious. D-does he know something?
"If I\'m not 7, then what!"
I shouted. Lucas spoke still smiling.
"What did I say wrong? Yeah, you\'re 7. Even though you are a bit old inside."
"Gasp. What does that mean?"
"Nothing. A old kid like the son of the white dog."
I was still panicking.
I-is it real? Is it just to tease me? We, it probably is, right?!
Knock knock.
"Princess, it\'s snack time."
Lilly entered. I couldn\'t continue the talk with the dude.
***
"Daaad!"
"Do not run."
Claude spoke coldly to me running to him.
"You\'ll fall."
Kyaa. Did you hear? Did you? He said to stop running because I will fall. Of course, its worth my 2 years of work.
"Ehehehe."
I smiled the cutest smile at Claude.
"Daaad, I wanted to see youuuuu."
Claude slightly moved his head when I pulled his hand while smiling. But that\'s not all!
I even took his hand and rubbed it on my cheeks. Kuckkk. Now I feel like a dog.
The Claude slightly flinched.
"Let go. It\'s bothering."
Really? Then why are you staying still? I thought you were weird but I know now! You are falling! Falling into my cuteness!
Is plan C \'Get Claude\'s ♡\' half success?
Woo hoo! What an event!
"Dad, dad."
Kekeke. Yes, yes. Keep on falling to my madness.
He reached out his hand to the smiling me. Claude lifted his eyebrow. And he soon got what I wanted.
"Looks like you are eating well."
Eek, stop saying I am heavy. Kuckkk, even so getting what I want this fast and even holding me like this! Peoplez, our Claude had changed!
"Hehe. Food is better when eating with daddy! Atti is happy because daddy comes to see Atti often!"
Now for the next step!
Sniff, honestly, I stsrted to work harder after seeing Jennet.
Claude seemed to have found me acting strange. But Felix opened his mouth.
"Princess is acting...."
What about my actions, what, why. Even though I am acting cuter than last time but what! If you\'re gonna curse me, then don\'t. Its not easy acting cute in this age.
If I hear bad comments, I get low. I\'m trying my best in this age you know. Kuckk.
"So...."
Felix thought for the right word before he stated.
"Ah! She is like Blackie."
What! This dude!
"Is she."
Claude replied as if he was waiting.
Hey, you people! Do you think words are enough?! Even though pur Blackie is lovely and cute but to say that I\'m like Blackie. Kuckkk. You said I was like a dog, right? Right?
"Hehe. Is Atti that cute?"
I wore a mast when my facial expression was rottening. Yeah, its life..... Sob.
"Probably cutest in the while world."
Cough.
T-thank you but the scale is a little too... I just need to look cute in front of Claude.
This is too embarrassing. Why do I have to take all the embarrassments. My dad\'s Claude but why are you more of a psycho than him? Hmm? Does our Felix wanna go marry? Do you want a beautiful child like me?
"Isn\'t that right, your majesty?"
"Nonsense."
Claude continued to walk and entered the palace. But Felix didn\'t give up and kept on talking.
"She is this cute and lovely. No kid in the world would be as lovely as princess Atanasia."
"Don\'t speak a word and move 10 steps back."
Kkyung. Felix was punished with the punishment \'move back\'.
But Claude didn\'t seemed too mad. No, is he in a good mood?
"How\'s that wizard?"
Ehh. Wizard?
"Is he fit to be your friend."
Does he mean Lucas, the black idiot?
"If you dislike him."
Claude continued while I was thinking for an answer.
"I\'ll find you other kids."
Huh? Other kid? A friend you mean? What\'s this all of a sudden?
I stared at Claude wide eyed not believing if this is reality
"I don\'t get why you need a friend but Felix kept on mentioning it."
I kept on listening.
"So you want them?"
And I smiled.
"I will find you a better kid."
Claude was making a face that I was unable to comprehend. The person who hated kids and is cold enough to do nothing for anyone was offering me if I wanted a friend.
Even though Claude might not like it.
So... if I want.
I got scared.
What\'s this?! Did he just say that he will get me a friend for me? But Claude doesn\'t like kids! Last time too, he said he doesn\'t want 2 kids when he is already annoyed with one!
Gasp. Now that I see it is weird why he let the idiot stay.
And even sent him to me from the suggestion Felix made! Was that for me too? Not because Felix was being annoying and just let it be?
You\'re not Claude!
"I told you that hair is not for eating."
Gaaasp. I realized that I was pulli g on his hair. As if there were someone else than Claude underneath. Ehh. But it won\'t come off. So you are Claude.
"Let go."
Yes sir.
I lifted my hands off as if I didn\'t touch him in the first place.
Wahhh! I really cannot stop these cry of joy. Thinking that our Claude changed this much!
It was after I fainted that he changed. So does things change when there are big events? But if so, I\'ve already have memories of almost dying twice! Then if I experiment more events that may cause death...
But just then, some thought fearful passed by my head. U-uhh. Never mind. I didn\'t say anything. Cancel my last sentence. I was wrong! Two dangerous events are enough. R-really.
"Mmm, Atti like Felix oppa and the wizard oppa."
I didn\'t like Lucas at first but he seemed okay. He and I can have conversations as he understands be well which is unexpected and he doesn\'t threaten me using Blackie.
And he doesn\'t annoy me much like he used to. Kuckkk. But what\'s the best was that it was very nice that I didn\'t have to act out in front of him like I did to Claude. How did this happen?
"I like them more because daddy sent me!"
I\'ll just go back after I gain more points here. Claude looked at me who was smiling. Then he looked sway and started to move again.
"It\'s fine if it is to your liking."
Claude didn\'t speak more but I became happy that I laughed \'hehe\' all along.
Later I heard the news of Isekiel that he went to Atlanta from Felix. I felt sorry that I didn\'t wait for him when he asked me to but what ever.
It\'ll be weird if I followed for that reason, right? Even though the scene of him in the indoor garden still bothers me a little.
But no parts of Isekiel such as his studies and appearances could make me go all the way to Atlanta for him.
Actually no. Its more of a shame than interest. Does this make sense? How did I lose to that 10 year old?! I have lived for long but Isekiel is a real kid!
This cannot happen. So I studied even more than I did now. The black idiot was annoyed but I still had a lot to learn.
Some years passed by living this busy.
