Chapter 89.1
Chapter 89 – Misunderstandings 1
I did it, I finally did it!
Today, during dinner, I tried inviting Sakura to the visit the garden. I was very nervous, but she nodded after thinking on it a bit.
…… I wanted her to nod immediately if possible, but that’s asking for too much.
Anyway, we decided to meet on the day after tomorrow
Ku-… I can’t stop myself from grinning…
And don’t go saying I just invited her to a garden, it might be a small thing for most, but it’s a big step for me!
However… The problem is Sakura, I’ve tried approaching her, but she seems completely oblivious to my attempts, I hope we can get a bit closer with this.
I’m also worried about mother, Aria and Chiffon2… I don’t want them interfering, so I definitely have to hide my meeting with Sakura until the day comes. I’ll have to be very careful.
On the next day, I felt really happy, but I don’t really have to do anything… Anyway, tomorrow is the day of my meeting with Sakura. We did meet before, but this time I invited her, and Sakura accepted it…! It has a different meaning!
Besides, Sakura said she’ll make a bentou for tomorrow. She’s even going to make a meal for me! Isn’t this just too good?
I just hope tomorrow becomes a first step in improving our relationship.
At last, this day came!
I woke up earlier than usual.
I was too impatient yesterday, and ended up sleeping early… It may look a bit childish, but it couldn’t be helped.
However, I’ll cause a huge panic among the maids if I get up early, so I just spent my time relaxing on my room.
Oh, I can’t wait for when it’s 5 o’clock!
I ate breakfast in a hurry, though even if I finished it early, it didn’t make our appointment come any sooner.
It’s 9 and a half now. Let’s start preparing myself, our meeting is only at 5, but I have to make sure to not arrive late.
Are those clothes good? I wonder what kind of clothes will Sakura use…? Would it be strange if I used a fancy look? Or should I go with my usual… Maybe I should find an in-between?.
Oto3, I better move soon.
Umu, those clothes are good. Is my hair okay though…? Yosh, Let’s go to the gate.
Mu? Is that Aria…. Why is she here of all places? Let’s pa.s.s by as casually as possible…
「Sedrim Nii-sama, are you hiding something?4」
Che… I was so close…
「What are you talking about? Am I the kind to hide things…5」
「Did you think I wouldn’t notice? Yesterday, and on the day before, you looked really strange, is it something about Sakura?」
…… My sister6 is sharp… But I won’t let her interfere today.
「It’s all on your head. I was pretty normal, you’re misunderstanding.」
Was this good enough? No, have more faith Sedrim. Today’s success depends on you!
「… I see, you’ll keep saying you don’t know anything?」
「If there isn’t anything else, I’ll take my leave.」
I feel like she is glaring at me, but things will just get worse if I remain, besides, I’ll make Sakura wait if I take too long.
「… Understood, I’m sorry for stopping you..」
Seems like it worked.
「No, I don’t mind it.」
I turn my back to Aria and walk to castle’s entrance.
I can feel Aria staring at me, but let’s ignore it.
When I couldn’t feel her gaze anymore, I breathed a sigh of relief.
…… That was bad for my heart…
However, I’ll be able to see Sakura without interferences with this, my face turned into a grin while thinking so.
Part 2 comes next!
