100 Lady and Black Knight Day by Day 2

─ ─ Sofia, have you decided?

As Sofia finished measuring and worried as she looked at the tailor's expanded fabric, Gilbert looked out.

"Congratulations, Gilbert. Um... I can't really decide."

"No, it's okay. So, the dress ─ ─"

Gilbert peeks up at the design drawings and fabrics at Sofia's hands. Looking at what was drawn there, Gilbert frowned slightly.

"Sofia, I told you not to hesitate."

"But I can't help it....."

The tailor came with lots of fabrics and gorgeous design drawings. But they all had expensive decorations like laces and jewelry, and Sofia was hard to choose from. All the design drawings you have are simple with little decoration. The fabric also has a lot of calming colors.

Unexpectedly, Gilbert sighs small and Sofia chokes.

"I'm sorry, but"

"─ ─ Okay. I'll choose with you."

Gilbert sat down next to Sofia. The tailor spreads the design drawing that he once pulled towards the edge over the table.

"Sofia is luxurious, so this suits me well..."

What Gilbert took was a design with a ribbon on the shoulder and a widened skirt. It has a gradient of fabric with a similar colour to the hem. The overlapping pieces of fabric appear to contain a number of small gems.

The other one was like a fairy coming out of a story. Chiffon, organic and lace overlap, and you can see from the figure that it has a delicate and pathetic sense of penetration.

"Um... Master Gilbert?"

Sofia panicked at Gilbert's expression. Gilbert will deliberately reach out to the fabric swatch with an indifferent gesture.

"Dark green to young grass is good for my eyes, but pink is good for Sofia's soft atmosphere"

"No, no... it doesn't suit me so gorgeously!

Sofia waved her hands in a hurry to deny it. But Gilbert looked into Sofia's face and laughed.

"That's not true. It's my opinion. Do you have anything you don't like? I don't know unless I tell you. ─ ─ It's up to you."

As Gilbert spoke his own words, Gilbert lined up the fabrics more and more. Add more gorgeous and cute designs that Sofia didn't choose and lay them over the fabric.

What is this stone?

Gilbert points to the chest decoration in the design drawing.

"This is a diamond. I'm sure it suits your sense of transparency."

Well, let's use it.

"─ ─ Wait!"

Sofia shouted in confusion. How much would it cost if Gilbert kept his word? Even the first one I chose exceeded Sofia's forecast by a large margin.

"Oh no... I can't help it."

Expensive stones will suit gorgeous people. Squeeze the ring of indigo crystal stone worn on the pinky finger of your left hand and the wedding ring with Gilbert with the pure diamond of your ring finger. This is enough.

"But your social dresses are few. There will be more nightclubs I have to attend this year than last year. Tell me what Sofia wants for me."

Gilbert's words are always soft on Sofia. Even now, I can see that you are trying not to make me think that it will be a burden.

"Okay, okay."

Gilbert replied sweetly and smiled. Sofia honestly dyes her cheeks on that expression, which she is not yet used to.

So, which one do you prefer?

Gilbert shows Sofia some blueprints. Sofia was delighted and smiled naturally.

"─ ─ I like the color of Gilbert's eyes."

A clear blue color resembling a blue-crystal stone. It was Sofia's favorite color. The tailor peeks at Gilbert's eyes from the side. Among several fabrics, a glossy indigo silk and a strong blue chiffon were removed.

"So why don't you lay this fabric on top of each other? I know that the chiffon material suits your wife's gentle and clear atmosphere. If you'd like, why don't you use a partial one and combine it with this one?"

In addition, a green chiffon closely resembling the dark green color of Sofia's eyes and a sample of Peridot are arranged. Gilbert nodded with satisfaction at the sight.

Well, then, tailor it.

Yes, Marquis.

Gilbert's measurements and costume were then chosen, as was Sofia's dress. Gilbert's first choice seemed to have been well ordered.

Sophia looks up at Gilbert slightly recklessly during the tailor's return reception.

"I've never heard of you shopping so much..."

"I'm sorry to surprise you. But you wouldn't have had many dresses yet. Don't worry about it. I make a lot of money, and it's an expense."

That's ─ ─

Sofia swallowed words without being able to say anything back. It is true that Gilbert, the lord of the Marquis of Forster and deputy commander of the 2nd platoon of the Knights of the Guard, earns less. Gilbert strokes Sofia's head with a satisfying face.

"I also order ornaments to match my dress. This is the first time I've ever thought I'd enjoy socializing."

"Um, that's... good."

While doubts remain, Gilbert feels gentle and pleasant. But the original stranger, Sofia, was very anxious. Laughing ambiguously, Gilbert hugged Sofia loosely as if she was seeing through everything.
