*It was a peaceful day except for Seiraâs visit. There was no end to the housework even though I had a little bit of makeup work, my main job. The life of the madams will be so busy. It was already a week to organize the documents. Then a bird flew in and touched the window. The cute owl, like a clever workhorse, stretched out it leg on which the letter was hung. I didnât know that a reply would come so soonâ¦
[ If Coral comes to the Imperial Academy, we will always welcome. The test scores are also the best, so I think she can go straight to the regular class. ]
The regular class in the chemistry department was a place to enter only after completing beginner, intermediate, and advanced levels. Coral was the first student to enter the regular class so quickly. I was guessing because she was a genius, but it was a move that exceeded expectations. When I entered the regular class, I would take classes with my sister and brothers after I had my debut, but I wasnât worried. Again, Coral is a geniusâ¦
â Becaise Kai will be opening her eyes at the academy. â
Coral overjoyyed when she heard the news of re-entry to the Imperial Academy. As far as I know, it was a time when Kai and Coralâs love front did not form in earnest. Because the story started from now. Butâ¦.
â Is it wrong? â
The laughter that never leaves Coralâs mouth⦠It was different from before. Of course, it might be a pleasure to go back to where you were. But seeing such a bright expression made me suspicious.
â Is there any kid you like at the Imperial Academy? â
â No. Itâs not like that⦠â
Coral repeatedly denied it with a red, ripe face like an apple. Seeing that appearance, I was more suspicious, but pretended not to know.
â What kind of prince does Coral want to meet? â
Coral liked to read childrenâs book. As expected, the childâs eyes widened in the princeâs story. Her wriggling fingers clenched her fists, as if finally concluding.
â I will not meet with the prince. â
Well, itâs not just the prince in the childrenâs book. In particular, Coralâs gaze now has a way to adapt to reality outside of fairy tales.
â You hate the prince? Who restricts you to not like the prince? Handsome black hair? â
Is it because you already know the ending? Somehow, all the explanations flowed to Kai. The reason Coral doesnât like the prince is probably because she doesnât know that Kai will later become emperor. Butâ¦
â No⦠If I meet the prince, I canât be with my mother. â
What?
â Coral isâ¦. I like my mom the most. â
Without knowing, I hugged the Coral tightly, and Coral raised her head in my arms.
â I will live with my mom until I die. â
At a moment, I was speechless and the tear gland button was pressed.
â Wouldnât Coral be surprised to see me crying again? â
After thinking many things and barely cooling off my tears, I could see Coral properly. I felt like I wanted to live with Coral forever, as Coral said. For Kai, our Coral⦠Itâs too wasteful.
â Did Kai and she have a fight? â
It wouldnât have been like this if they had had a fight. Contrary to the ambitious desire to teach Kai to spartan education, the current me⦠I havenât even had a proper conversation with Kai. Then, someone knocked on the door.
â Have anyone come to the Coral room? â
Coral, with her eyes wide open, seemed to know who was outside. A little open face, no way⦠As she nodded, Coral ran and opened the door. Kai was standing there. Butâ¦
â Why is his face so white? â
Kai gasped to see if he had jumped.
â Whatâs so urgentâ¦Â â
Even after eye contact with me, Kai⦠It turned out to be stunned. Somehow, Coralâs expression⦠It looked dark.
â Have Kai made any mistakes? â
Kai found me and was restless, unable to enter.
â They have a love fight⦠Am I just like a distuber? â
After leaving Kai to come in, she slipped away.
â Iâm a little worried about Coralâs expression⦠Iâll see if I ask later. â
*Calypse disappears and heâs in the room.
Kai still laughed over his pale face.
â The chemistry notebook you borrowed in the morning⦠Where is it? â
â Here. â
Fortunately, Coral knew nothing. Kai instantly erased the tension in his eyes and created a gentle expression.
â Never mind. If you canât keep up with progress, tell me. â
Coralâs expression changed subtly, but he couldnât see it in Kaiâs relieved eyes.
â Thanks. Thanks to you, I think I will do well this semester. â
Kai smiled and waved at Coral. Coral, who waved face to face as she looked at it, sat down on the floor when Kai disappeard.
â Oppa, Iâm sorry. â
