Chapter 54

I mean, what is this? Really, what is this?

"I'll put you down."

I was able to stand on the ground. Then I quickly backed away from him.

"Ack!"

But the problem was this d.a.m.n heels. I was wearing the extra tall heels for when I was practicing dancing to dance with Claude!

I lost balance but Isekiel managed to catch me without much panic.

Chirp chirp.

I heard birds crying. I sweat dropped.

GASP. It's fortunate I was caught by the arms at most! If it was like the male lead catching the female lead by the waist and pink flowers blooms! And shines!, I'd probably be dead by then!

Why did you grow so much?

I acted as if nothing happened and dusted my shoulders. Then Isekiel moved away from me.

"Are you okay?"

"I-I'm okay...."

Gasp. S-Sh*t. Formal words came out of my mouth by accident.

Isn't he 16? 17? Around that much? Then he is still very younger than when I died past life.

And he was this innocent kid who blushed finding the angel. But he seems so strange!

"It's obvious but."

"You've grown past 6 years."

N-No. Not like you. Why did you grow up that much? I almost didn't guess who you were!

Grown up Isekiel smiled down at me under the sunlight.

"But I could still know from first glance."

Critical! It's critical!

Something rang in my head.

Isekiel Alfius was the novel's male lead! AHH!

[Isekiel's appeal skill has been used! The effect was great!]

This kind of game alarm could appear in this situation!

But what concerned me was not my heart pounding but how I should get out of this situation.

I wouldn't have felt this way if it was Isekiel who was 10. Just what should I say to this Isekiel all grown up?

I moved my gaze slightly to see what's above me. But it was just the blue clear sky.

Eek, where did that black idiot go?! he must be somewhere watching while laughing! What do you want me to do!

But I don't know what he thought of my expression, but he suddenly turned gloomy.

"I thought this could happen but...."

Then the feelings those golden eyes contained made me panic.

"Do you not remember me?"

Disappointment and hurt. But also with his tries to not show that. Those 3 were all clearly seen in his golden eyes like a wave hitting me.

That face help me make up my mind.

"No. Of course I remember you, sir...."

I still remember how he told me to wait but didn't.

Ack! But I didn't think I'd see him like this again! Really, you Lucas!

"Really. You've remembered me."

But I felt like I did something wrong at his changing face.

Doesn't it feel like some spring breeze hitting us? ....

But why are you so happy seeing me?

"*Clears throat*. Perhaps you won't tell anyone we met here before, right... sir?"

"You can speak informal. I won't tell anyone."

"Alright. Then keep all this a secret."

I started to speak informal to his words immediately.

H-he told me it was okay. I am lady angel... Kuckkk. Cringe.

Anyways, since I'm that. But Isekiel seemed like he knew I was a princess since 6 years ago....

Well even though it is true, I said not. Isekiel will pretend he doesn't know, too. I feel like he'd do that for me.

"I will even if you didn't tell me."

Isekiel promised me.

And I felt awkward afterwards. Nothing to talk about, and this is too strange. Run, I want to run! Very fast too! Run very fast to somewhere where no one's there!

The part of me which was asleep for a while now, woke up. I really wished to be out of here. Isekiel didn't seem to realize my feelings and opened his mouth to speak.

It was then.

Rustle.

"Isekiel? Are you there?" (Formal)

Gasp. It was a voice so clear as if a pearl rolling. If Isekiel has the appearance of a male lead, this voice must be a voice of the protagonist!

But thinking that made my heart waver. Why does people always come to where Isekiel is when I come to see him?! Who now?

It was then when Isekiel's eyes wavered and came closer to me again.

"Forgive me."

I smelt something sweet like perfume before Isekiel picked me up again.

Mommy. What kind of situation is this?

"I will take you to a quiet place."

Isekiel seemed to be worried that I might panic if I met someone else.

Gasp.But how is he handsome in this angle as well? Doesn't the nose look like pigs, and shows V line, and look a bit chubby in this angle? Well, it's the male lead anyways!

I soon gained my mentality again.

But isn't that Jennet? There won't be a problem if you went to Jennet now. And I go back to that black idiot. Then everything will be perfect!

"You should just go witho...."

"Then you'll disappear again."

Flinch!

I felt guilty at his words. But I don't remember agreeing to wait. Why do I have to feel guilty?

"What to do. We'll be late if we don't go now. Isekiel-"

Then someone with a pretty voice called his name. Looks like he promised to do something with her.

"Uhh. I think you should leave me and go."

But he shushed me with a 'Shhh' and moved.

Th-this is weird. He changed! Even though he looks more like the male lead Isekiel than when he was a kid.

Anyways, he walked pa.s.s through the trees heading to a direction opposite from where Jennet's voice came from.

"Weird. They said that he went in this direction."

A soft voice was heard and the rustle got further as Isekiel moved. I stared at the place we left behind Isekiel's back. Isekiel was just moving as if it was nothing that it was hard for me to guess what he was thinking.

"Its a place I go to when I want to be alone."

Then isekiel stopped walking. He put me down on a hill.

"It's only me who knows this place so here could be called a secret place."

"Uhh, but for me to be in your secret place-"

"What do you mean?"

W-Why do you ask me? Isn't it not good to let a person in your secret place?

But I was speechless when he said what do you mean.

I stared at him not knowing what he meant but soon moved to look around.

"I thought you'd like this place."

The place was actually really to mu liking. The field was filled with tons of flowers.

But what do you mean by 'I thought you might like this place'? Its sounds as if he though of me whenever he came here.

Haha.

"I didn't know you'd appear in front of me again."

"Same goes for m...."

"Sorry?"

"N-nothing. Nothing."

I agreed with Isekiel.

Exactly, exactly! I didn't even know myself. This is all because of that Lucas!

"I'd be happy if you have come to see me,"

I moved my gaze when Isekiel started speaking again.

"but that doesn't seem to be the case."

And I felt bad looking at his smile.
