After the carriage that carries Earl Stamfort and Sir Anthony being taking care and the horses put in the stable, the next carriage which coming after the Earl Stamfort"s carriage is the carriage which carries my fiancé. I"m waiting anxiously until my fiancé carriage stop and she left the carriage. What she looks like? Is she beautiful? Is her character good? Is she a good person? All that questions filling my mind, add my anxiety about what kind of my fiancé will be.Finally, after the carriage stopped, the carriage door is open. I hold my breath when a woman steps down from the carriage. I"m really shocked when seeing the woman who comes out from the carriage just look like an ordinary woman and also like already have over thirty years old in age. Is this my fiancé?
I take a relieved breath when that woman spread the parasol that she carries, and say to someone in the carriage.
"Milady, you can come out now"
Then under the shade of the parasol, a girl comes out from the carriage.
I almost forget to breathe when I see her for the first time. If this is in j.a.pan, I maybe think I"m meeting with a cosplayer in Akihabara, but in this world, there"re no cosplayers around. The people I met in this world, all their physical appearance is real, not makeup thing, the hairs color also not painted, it"s their true colors, if their b.r.e.a.s.t.s are large, that must be a genuine one, not fake breast with silicone. A girl with long platinum hairs which reach her waist, wearing a broad blue hat over her head, pure white skins that like snow in the winter season, beautiful eyes with red pinkish pupil, red small lips, high pointing nose, slender neck, slim body that covered by the light-blue long gown. If this is in j.a.pan, I remember an actress that likes using that kind of appearance, Reona Maruyama. The cuteness is similar but this one looks more elegant, dignified, graceful, and far from vulgarism.
After seeing her, I know why people rumored her as devil incarnation. What stupid thinking, it"s not devil incarnation or something magical like that. She"s an albino, rare genetic defiance that makes the body can"t produce pigment on the skin. But this kind of knowledge seems not to exist in this world but even in my previous world, people with albinism also persecuted because their uniqueness, with such cases of this persecution, happens in African countries. People just simply think something that out of ordinary as something evil, something ominous. I secretly smile bitterly when thinking the foolish thinking of people who spread bad rumors about her.
The girl, my fiancé Celes, also looks at me. When she sees me smile, she also shyly smiles and lowers her head while fidgeting her fingers. Oh my G.o.d! So cute! Super cute! So adorable! I scream in my mind, "KAWAIIII!!!". Suddenly my heart beating faster and there"s a warm feeling that suddenly surge from my heart, a feeling of mixture between loves, longing, and compa.s.sion, like a tidal wave spread to my whole body. Is this…..the previous Henry feeling? Is this his desire to protect her beloved fiancé?
Unconsciously, my hand is touching my heart and my mind makes a pledge to protect this girl from those bad rumors and make her happy. Her body condition already make her suffers, she can"t enjoy normal living like other people, she can"t do many activities under the sunlight and I don"t want she getting hurt anymore because of that bad rumors.
"And this is my only daughter, Celes, your future daughter-in-law, John. Celes, come near and greets your uncle John"s family"
Earl Stamfort asks my fiancé to come near him and introduced to my family. She comes forward and makes a light bow in front of my father.
"It"s nice to meet you, Uncle John"
"The pleasure is our, miss Celes. They"re my family behind me, my wife Amelia, my daughter Eliza, Mary, Karen, and Christine. And also, my only son Henry"
When my father introduced my family, one by one is stepping forward and greet Celes when their name mentioned. And when my sister Karen"s name mentioned, she comes forward with the flower bouquet in her hand
"h.e.l.lo sister Celes, welcome to Harvard castle…this flower is for you"
Karen stretched her little hand to give the flower bouquet to Celes. Since my sister Karen is way shorter than Celes, she folds her knee and semi-squatting in front of Karen to receive it.
"h.e.l.lo Karen, is this flower for me? It"s beautiful, thank you"
"You"re also beautiful, sister Celes"
My sister Karen did more than I"m expecting, she also praises my fiancé beauty. I give her thumb up secretly in my heart because I see Celes" face look happier when hearing the praise
"Really? Thank you, Karen, you"re also cute girl"
My fiancé gives a kiss on Karen"s forehead. Karen bashfully receives that kiss then retreats back because it"s Christine"s turn to greet my fiancé.
"Sister Celes, nice to meet you. You"re pretty, my brother Henry is handsome, both of you will make a great couple"
Christine says her greeting with her funny childish accent.
Oooooh!! I didn"t teach her to say that but it"s good. Not only my fiancé but also people around us also smile when hearing that.
"Oh Thank you, Christine, it"s so sweet of you"
She also gets a kiss on her forehead from my fiancé. Now it"s my turn to greet her and also the most awaited event in this welcoming party. I can feel everybody gaze is aimed at me this time. I slowly come forward after my sister Christine step back and help my fiancé stand up from her position.
"h.e.l.lo, Celes…it"s been a long time. I"m glad I finally can see you again"
After my fiancé stands up, I lower my back and kiss the palm of her hand as the standard etiquette for male n.o.bles when they see n.o.ble girls.
"Yes, Henry…it"s been a long time since our meeting in royal garden"
I and Celes look at each other with smiles on our faces. My guess is right, the dream that I had before about the little girl and little Henry met in the garden, is the time when Celes and Henry met for the first time. [Chapter 12 for reminder-author]
The moment when I and Celes exchanging smiles, is not missed from Earl Stamfort"s sight. He laughs happily and talks to my father
"John, look at them. It seems they can"t wait any more to talk to each other. Won"t you let us come inside?"
"Ah? Yes, you are right. Please come, you must be tired after a long journey. Let us show your room first so you can take a rest and refreshing while we prepare lunch. Henry, I will escort Sir Stamfort and Sir Anthony, you escort your fiance and show her room"
"Yes father"
The room that already prepared for Earl Stamfort, his son and his male guards is located in the middle are of the Harvard Castle, while the female guest is given the room in the east wing of the castle, the same place with other females from Harvard castle. Of course, for my fiance, we already prepared the best room in the east wing. We slowly step into the castle while the maids and servants carrying our guest"s baggage that arrived in the third carriage and unloaded when we having introduction time.
