215 – Exchange Meeting (8)⚝
As I stared blankly, Ain spread out his index and middle fingers. She was instantly bitten by her body. Her fingers split the air. Crazy b*tch. I guess he meant to stab her in the eye. Looking at what she’s doing, she’s the princess I know.
“How is it?”
Maybelle asked.
“It’s a bit unfamiliar.”
“Baby, as a member of the royal family, wouldn’t I have followed the protocol?”
It’s not a task to decorate like this.
“This is a foul!”
“Fire fox, why are you doing this again?”
When I turned around, Rita, who had braided her hair and made a decoration, came up to me.
“Someone else did it for me.”
“What’s wrong with that?”
“It’s shameful.”
“Yangmul, please interpret it.”
“That’s a foreign language.”
When even Maybelle turned away, Rita began to insist alone.
“Me too.”
“Fox, who are you talking to now?”
“I can look much prettier if I dress up like you!”
“Why don’t you do something?”
Rita stamped her foot at my point. When Ain stretched her finger, she stopped him and told him to just endure it for today. The people we will meet today at the exchange meeting do not know us. She shouldn’t have been blinded since she was the one who stayed up all night and opened up her network.
“No, what should I do?”
“Let me do it too.”
“Maybelle, tell me what you think.”
“Princess…… “They say you can even grant the wishes of the dead.”
─This is my first time seeing such deliberate sarcasm.
“Sister, please wear my hair in a bun like a princess.”
“That takes too much time.”
“Hey, we have to leave a little later, right?”
“Fox, that b*tch should have her head shaved like a corpse.”
When they criticize with one voice, she pouts and says no one is taking her side.
“Rita, you look good with regular long hair.”
“Why are you trying to tame me to your taste?”
As Rita argued, Maybelle played with her hand. She is indeed, she is the princess’s exclusive maid. Soon enough, her hair was neatly arranged.
“Sister, what about makeup?”
─Why do you keep calling me your sister?
Maybelle finally revealed her feelings in response to her request that crossed the line.
“Even dead people won’t do this.”
“Rita, it means you should stop making demands.”
It’s not that I didn’t notice it, but she kept stretching it so I forced it away.
“I’m not finished yet?”
“This is the truth.”
“If I become pretty, you’ll like it too, right?”
b*tch, please stop, she sticks out her tongue.
“Wait a minute.”
Maybelle caught me.
“Why are you doing this?”
“Eyebrows.”
“Yes.”
“Let me summarize it a little bit.”
“Sister, what about me?”
“I need to tidy up the sides of my hair too.”
“I just need to look at the back of my head!”
No matter what Rita said, Maybelle’s gaze did not waver.
“Do men do this?”
“Yangmul, just do it.”
“After you, it’s me!”
Since Maybelle was going to church, she said she liked being neat, so I broke her stubbornness.
“I understand.”
She obediently sits down in front of the dressing table and uses her razor to smooth out her eyebrows. I wondered if it would be okay to just cut it like this, but it ended up blowing off a clump of hair on the side of her. Ain watched me, and Rita kept looking at my face with her hand mirror.
“How is it?”
In an instant, my facial features became clearer.
“Honestly, I don’t know.”
Then Maybelle smiled and smoothed the blade of her bangs.
“It’s too short to use pomade on.”
“There is nothing to change.”
“It would just take a little bit of management, but I guess you’re not interested in this?”
─Because it’s annoying.
“If I decorate, everyone makes fun of me.”
“Hey, don’t you dress up your pig’s feet well?”
“Kite decorates himself well.”
“Okay, what was the reaction when you made it up?”
“They said don’t say it’s better not to decorate anything.”
From noble mtl dot com
“Hmm…… “You said that?”
“It’s obvious even if you don’t look at it.”
As the two women spoke at the same time, Rita gently pushed me away with her butt.
“Sister, I think I just need to touch the side of my head a little!”
“I heard pig’s feet are more sinister than they look?”
“I also agree with the princess’s opinion.”
“Oh, by the way, can you tell me the color mixing ratio you used for cheek touching?”
“Hey you b*tch!”
Ain could not bear it anymore and hit Rita on the back of her neck with the blade of her hand. Gwae-aek–the sound of an elk crying erupted. The two people were fighting openly, and the corners of Maybelle’s mouth turned up. She just realized who she hates the most.
“Oh, what about Kite and Lia?”
I thought the two of them would continue to argue, so I changed the topic.
“Maybelle.”
“Yes…… “Princess?”
“Please keep the pig’s trotters and hooves.”
Maybelle’s lips trembled.
“Ain, is the hoof Lia?”
“Yes, because it’s pig’s feet.”
Originally, I was going to call it toe-off, but I think hoof would be more appropriate.
“Why are you choosing it?”
“No.”
Anyway, Lia won’t care what you call her. She can’t delay any longer, she starts now and Nirita resists, rubbing her ass against her chair. She felt like she couldn’t help it, so she put her hands under her armpits and helped her up.
“aaah…… “Where are you touching?”
I thought it would be damp, but it was very soft.
“Hey, please let’s go.”
“Baby, are you touching me subtly?”
As he was forcibly dragged out, the attention of passers-by was focused.
These two have an exterior that is inversely proportional to their miserable interior. Therefore, if you decorate it well like now, it will definitely attract attention. It’s not a pleasant thing. Scandal and harassment always follow beautiful women. In other words, a beautiful woman who is not my wife is the seed of disaster that brings tiring work.
─Because Kite was exactly like that.
So, I walked behind them. As much as possible, I wanted to look like a subordinate rather than a member of their group. As I deliberately shrugged my shoulders and walked, Ain stopped tall and said sarcastically.
“Baby, you’re not some kind of dog. Why do you keep following me?”
─I’m afraid something troublesome will happen.
“That’s right, honestly, aren’t you too intimidated to walk with a beautiful woman like me?”
I spoke so that the two people could understand my intention.
“Suppose I walk between you two.”
“I don’t like it…… “I feel bad just thinking about it.”
“Is there a reason why you and Ampong are close?”
I was criticized for having the same level of delusion, so I shrugged my shoulders and smiled bitterly.
“I don’t want that either.”
“Baby, then.”
I asked Ain because her lips were trembling and she couldn’t speak.
“Then?”
“You walk on my right.”
“No, you stand out now too.”
“Baby, don’t you even know the basics of protocol?”
The guard’s position is over there. If you understand, they criticize you for being ignorant and at the level of a beggar.
“No, what are you saying?”
The insult is severe over something trivial. Tuktuk, Ain is quiet even though she expressed her dissatisfaction. Rita turned her head and looked at us both. Neither of us said a word the whole way to the social gathering hall, so we scanned the surrounding geography with our eyes. It was unlikely, but if there was a situation where the two had to be evacuated at any time, an escape route had to be secured.
“What are you doing?”
This time it was Rita.
“It’s no big deal.”
“You keep glancing at me, but my underwear isn’t showing?”
─I’m not even curious.
“No, if something happens.”
“You idiot, what kind of prison is Velaste?”
“I looked into the alleys so I could escape at any time.”
When I tell him roughly what the escape route will be like, Ain ignores it and Rita looks thrilled.
“Why are your eyes moist?”
I understand the former, but I was curious about the latter, so I asked.
“I’m sorry.”
─What is it, scary?
“It’s not for you to apologize.”
“No, it’s all because of me…” … ?”
I was about to say it was a habit I picked up while guarding Kite, but I held back. She knew Rita wouldn’t like it. Once is a mistake, but multiple times is rude. To be honest, she wanted to confess that it was more about the duke’s older daughter than the baron’s eldest daughter, but it was probably a good thing. Anyway, it’s clear that I have to protect both women.
“Because I’m so pretty…” … “You even think like that.”
“f*ck, what did I hear?”
“Ain, that’s a curse used by a southern shaman.”
Ignoring it, Ain took a long lead. I matched my pace with the princess, and before I knew it, Rita followed suit and walked next to me. Somehow she ended up with two women. Yeah, I know something. Those who misunderstand misunderstand. It is up to others to decide whether to be jealous or criticize.
“Ah, is this the rumored Deman Pon Pong?”
When I came to the building where the social gathering was held, the female cadet guarding the door recognized me. Even here in Velaste, there are few people taller than me. No matter how tall she is, she is around 180 to 183 cm. She has never seen anyone bigger than Jean or Pan, so she once again finds my size intimidating.
“I am Rita von Lo.”
The fact that it will be on the reservation list as of today is somewhat of an aggrieved reaction.
“I am Ein Kamphund Beronhard.”
“No way…” … Princess?”
When Ain nodded her head, the female cadet smiled brightly.
“Don’t act friendly.”
“Because it’s my first time seeing royalty!”
Contrary to expectations, it seems that royal families are rare in Belaste. Ain seemed to be uncomfortable with the woman’s repeated efforts to make eye contact with him, so he hurried inside her. Rita looked at me with a blank expression and crossed my arms without saying a word.
“Why?”
First, I asked. If I didn’t have eyes to see, I would have shot it right away.
“I’m close to a famous person, so I’m equally famous, right?”
“Ah, well, yes.”
I understand that, so go in. She said she was uncomfortable because Rita didn’t uncross her arms even after entering. She stayed like this for a while.
“Be my accessory just for today.”
“Do you use people for every purpose?”
Then Rita looks with a straight face.
“How often have I come here because of you?”
When I thought about how she must have suffered alone, the feeling of criticism disappeared. It is true that Rita suffered because of Ain’s strike. The list is not distributed by anyone. I met her every day, took her notes, and at this moment, I have no right to criticize her. She suffered. Because she came back late at night every day to see her removing her makeup.
“Today is enough, right?”
When I asked him, he scolded me and asked me what I expected.
“Hello?”
As we were pretending to be friends, a female cadet whom we had never met approached us. Rita called her name first. It’s Colonia. These are the people who need to be filtered out. Since they are all women, they are unsuitable to be allies. Of course, it might be welcomed in a male-only circle. Then, you can share the extra points that are only given to women.
“I still missed you!”
Rita responded skillfully. After chatting for a while, the woman asked my name. Since he wasn’t surprised at all when he heard it, he must have known from the beginning. After just a glance, Ain moved to where she was sitting and released her arms. As she quietly walked away, a voice was heard from behind her.
“You two…… “You seem to be very close?”
Rita answered, but I couldn’t hear her because she was holding her breath. I left them to their own devices and sat down at the table. She clicked her tongue as Ain pointed with her finger to the place I had left.
“Did you hear what Rita said?”
“No.”
Instead, I saw her lips moving.
“What do you say?”
“I’m following you around because I like you.”
