“Bebe, it would be good for you to prepare flowers for your mom so she can see the prettiest flowers as soon as she wakes up.”

“Ah! Get a bunch of my mom’s favorite yellow flowers and fill her room!”

My dad said last time he changed all the flowers in the garden to yellow ones. My mom liked yellow flowers that looked just like my mom and I. So as my father said, how happy would my mom be if the room was filled with yellow flowers when she wakes up.

“Yes, so go to bed tonight, Bebe. You’ve had a hard time today.”

“No, I’m fine! I want to go get the flowers right now!”

However, my dad sat down slightly in front of me as I was about to get out of bed at any moment.

“You got up early in the morning and went to the Imperial Palace. Coming there, it must have been difficult. Mom wouldn’t want to see you overdo it, so go to bed early today. Daddy will be by your side.”

“But…”

“Go on.”

Actually, I was tired. I almost dozed off when my dad patted me earlier.

“Daddy.”

“What?”

“Can you tell I’m sleepy?”
“Yes Bebe, your eyes are half as big now. You’re sleepy.”

“Ah…!”

It’s obvious. I had my eyes open quite a bit. I had no choice but to lay myself on the bed. As if waiting for this, Dad patted my body and smiled affectionately.

“Have a nice dream. You should only dream of happiness and joy as your future shines brightly.

“Yes, Dad. Thank you for doing this for me, for my mom.”

I had to say that, but as soon as I was patted by my dad, strange words flowed out of my mouth because of my closed eyes.

“Dad… Mom… if we loved…”

I want my dad, mom, brother and I to love together without breaking up.

I think I said that, but for some reason, my father, who was patting me, was startled and stopped patting me.

I almost woke up because of it, but in the end, I fell asleep like that.

The next morning, as soon as I woke up, my eyes lit up.

I hurriedly looked to the side to see if my mother had woken up, but she remained as she was with her eyes closed.

“She didn’t wake up…”
Was it too much to hope that it will happen in a day?

For some reason, her mouth protruded. Maybe I was found like that, but Cecilia, who was sitting in the corner of the room, approached me.

“Are you awake?”

“Yes, Cecilia. Me, me! I have a place to go to!”

As soon as I saw her, I rushed down from the bed.

“Where are you going?”

“Flowers! I’m going to get flowers! When Mom wakes up, she can see flowers!”
I grabbed her hand.

“You’re not going to eat?”

“Uh… yeah! You never know when Mom will wake up. I want to hurry up and go so I can come back soon. I’ll eat later.”

Cecilia showed an uncomfortable look on her face, and as if nothing had happened, she hugged me.

“Just change your clothes and we can go.”

“Ah! Yes!”

I definitely slept in my outdoor clothes, but when I looked at myself, I was wearing my pajamas. Cecilia walked into the dressing room with a grin. Perhaps she was the one who changed me last night.

As if she knew how much I wanted to go out, she quickly put on my clothes, and as soon as we were ready, we headed for the garden.

But I met an unwanted person there.

“Harris.”

Still, Harris was walking around the garden with the Grand Duke without hesitation. If there was anything else, Aster was always with her.

Dressed up so beautifully that I wondered why she was here at such an early hour, Harris licked her lips as soon as I said her name.

Then, as if to show off, she held Aster’s hand tightly.

It was Aster, who I had never talked to properly. It made me feel uncomfortable somewhere in my chest.

It was understandable that Lexit, who was always by Harris’s side, hated me because from the beginning, it felt like he didn’t like me that much.

But Aster was different. It felt like I was deprived of the opportunity to talk to her properly.

‘I want to talk to her…’

There were not many times when I envied Harris, but this time, it was a little awkward. My eyes naturally wrinkled and my gaze naturally turned to Harris.

“Why are you making that face?”

“…Well, you always looked at me like this. Can’t I look at you like this?”

I choked out those words, before Aster broke in between us.

“Stop.”

Before I could even speak properly, I hurriedly lowered my head to the floor, wondering if I was being hated.

“Harris.”

The words that came out the next moment surprised me.
