Episode 130

Side Story 1: Summer Vacation (3)

When I arrived in the bedroom, my luggage and Cassius were neatly laid.

I expected to use separate rooms, but the villa’s servants smiled kindly and put the two of us in one room.

Well, it was embarrassing, but it didn’t matter, so I decided to stay still.

It’s time to sleep like that.

That was the beginning of the incident.

“You’re tired, aren’t you? Go to bed, Cassius.”

I said, turning my head to Cassius lying next to me.

Then, his goldeye shone in the soft candlelight.

“Well, I don’t think I can fall asleep easily.”

“Oh, no. We have to go to bed early to play as much as we can tomorrow.”

“But…….”

Cassius, who hesitated to speak, eventually stood up from his position, unable to resist.

“Cassius?”

As soon as I was puzzled by his very serious-looking profile, Cassius opened his mouth with a serious look.

“I can’t sleep because I’m nervous.”

“What?”

I stared at him, wondering what he was talking about.

“It’s been so long since I’ve slept in the same bed with you…….”

Cassius, who brought it up, had sparkling eyes like a 12-year-old boy with a fresh crush.

‘Oh, my God.’

I want to tease Cassius again.

‘Isn’t this addiction?’

But isn’t it so cute?

He has a bigger head than me and is a burly adult man with angry muscles hidden under his clothes, but he is still so cute.

“Well, I can’t help it. I’ll help you relax.”

I hid my black heart and approached Cassius casually.

“Huh? How?”

I smiled at Cassius, who looked like an innocent lamb.

“Like this!”

Then I attacked the defenceless Cassius and began to tickle him.

“Oh, wait, Yerine! Wait, not there!”

Cassius couldn’t resist and burst out laughing, and I tried my best to tickle him.

“Come on, you’re not nervous anymore, are you?”

“Yerine, please, no, no, I can’t stand it anymore!”

Cassius, who had been suffering, turned over his body with tears hanging from his inner lashes.

His body rolled around, unable to focus on an unexpected attack.

“Be prepared.”

“Oh, wait a minute. Wait, ack!”

It was followed by a fierce blood war that resembled the final match of the wrestling match.

Cassius, who couldn’t resist my tickling after a close battle, eventually bounced off the bed with a thump.

“Where are you running!”

I also ran after him running away from the bed.

The moment I reached for his neck, which was revealed, Cassius turned around and hugged me tightly in his arms.

“Huh?”

Cassius hugged me hard and couldn’t move both arms at all.

“Now you’ve become quiet.”

“Oh, let me go!”

I moved around, back and forth, to release Cassius’s arms, but I couldn’t untie it.

He lifted me into the air.

Then I knew it by intuition.

From now on, I’ll be punished for tickling Cassius.

“Now, wait a minute, Cassius, let go of this.”

“No, I can’t stand it anymore. I’ll never let you slide tonight.”

Cassius said as he approached the bed with me.

“You shouldn’t keep teasing me.”

I shook my head with a serious face and said.

“For that punishment, you will be sentenced to twelve hours of blanket-clothes.”

“What?”

Without even giving me a chance to make a final argument, Cassius quickly put me on the bed.

And he started rolling me in the blanket.

“Oh, wait a minute! Oh!”

“This should be less of a joke.”

“Wait, Cassius, oh, really!”

Eventually, I had to spend the night like a quilt-dried pupa.

And the cheeky Cassius took me in his arms, made me unable to move, and slept soundly.

***

When everything in the villa melted into the dark darkness, only the candle in the middle of the villa management room did not go out and burn.

“I’m so thrilled. How many years has it been since I’ve achieved this …….”

Clayton took off his glasses and said, rubbing around his eyes.

His face was red, and his eyes were filled with tears.

He wiped the sparkling tears with a handkerchief under the fireplace light.

Maya looked at him and carefully opened her mouth.

“The two have been dating since they were in the Academy, right?”

“Yes, so the ministers were secretly expecting that the two would be married soon.”

Clayton replied, reusing his monoculars.

“Both of them are already adults. Marriage is too much, but I thought they would at least have an engagement ceremony soon. But……….”

Clayton, who was speaking in a furious voice, sighed deeply and hit his chest as if he was frustrated.

Maya, who glanced sideways at Clayton, opened her mouth in a low voice.

“The two of them have shown no sign of it.”

“Yes, I don’t know exactly why, but the two have met often, but haven’t made any progress at all…….”

His green eyes glowed with longing in front of her who raised her head.

“I can’t meet them even if I want to.”

It was a quiet voice, but the woman could see that the voice was slightly cracked.

And the fact that the man’s face is half covered by the shadow is depressing.

“Okay.”

After a brief silence, the woman’s answer rang out.

***

I don’t know when I fell asleep.

When I opened my eyes, the sun was already in the middle, and Cassius was rubbing his eyes.

“Your Majesty should have carried the Duke on his back or hugged you! Or you can call the servants!”

“Hey, wait a minute.”

No matter how much I thought about it, the situation seemed to be going strangely, so I raised my hand to stop Clayton.

“Clayton, I don’t know why, but I’m fine. You just saw me walk very well.”

Cassius also spoke in a calm voice.

“And Clayton, carrying the Duke of Spade on my back or carrying her is rather my wish. It’s the Duke herself who stops it.”

He looked at me and spoke boldly.

“In that sense, should I just hug her everywhere and get her upset in the future? I don’t know the reason, but what’s the thing that made you angry like this, Clayton.”

“Yes, I hate it.”

“Look, it’s the Duke who refuses.”

Cassius, who naturally fluted, slowly blinked his shiny gold eyes with a pod in his hands.

“So Clayton, what the hell is wrong with you? You’ve been saying meaningless things. The Duke herself has been saying that she’s okay.”

“No way. There’s no way the Duke will be okay, you may be overdoing it!”

Clayton, who dyed his face red, clenched his fists and shouted in a pretty furious voice, mixed with embarrassment and frustration

“Didn’t you overwork the Duke last night to the extent make the bed break?”
