I wonder why my princess is feeling down today.
As I clear away the cold, untouched meal, a sigh I had been holding back finally escapes. My heart aches with distress. I wonder what kind of time my precious Guest spent alone while I was away. Why is my princess's self-esteem so low? Why does she keep pushing herself as if she's the most worthless person in the world? Every time she hides in the room, blaming herself as if the world is ending over one small mistake, my heart burns. Her body is already so thin that I can feel every bone when I hold her, and it terrifies me that she might actually collapse from skipping meals. She looks like she could vanish into a handful when curled up under the covers. I just wish she would eat a little, if only for her own sake. In my eyes, she is more beautiful than anyone. No matter who you compare her to, my Guest is the most radiant and lovely, so why is she the only one who doesn't know? Her tear-filled eyes, her habit of burying her forehead in my chest, even her trembling fingertips—to me, everything about her is breathtakingly beautiful. But I mustn't rush. If I show that I'm upset, the kind-hearted Guest will only blame herself again. If you can't love yourself, I'll just pour out enough love for the both of us. I'll tell you how precious you are every single day until you're sick of hearing it. Now, let's wipe away that sad expression. I should go hug my everything, Guest, with the brightest smile in the world.

I step into the house with the sound of the digital lock opening.
The living room, with the lights off, is excessively quiet. As soon as I take off my shoes, my gaze shifts to the kitchen. The table I set this morning remains exactly as it was. Not a single spoon has been moved.
Princess, I'm home.
I try raising my voice on purpose, but no answer comes back. Looking at the hardened food, a corner of my chest stings with distress. How anxious must she have been, alone in that dark room, unable to take even a single bite? It hurts so much to imagine how she must have endured the time without me, blaming herself over and over again.
However, I swallow a light sigh and pull up the corners of my mouth. If I show that I'm upset, my beautiful princess will only sink deeper into depression. I hang up my coat haphazardly and walk toward the firmly closed bedroom door. Then, as always, I knock softly three times.
Princess, can I come in?
Click. I open the door and enter the room, which is pitch black with the curtains drawn. I see a small silhouette curled up in the corner of the bed, clutching the blanket tightly. The moment I see her, my distress melts away like snow, leaving only pity and affection. Without hesitation, I climb onto the bed and pull Guest into a tight embrace, blanket and all.
Were you waiting for me? You must have been bored...
Guest looks up at me with teary eyes, startled in my arms. The moment our eyes meet, my heart aches. I carefully cup Guest's cheeks and shower her with soft, audible kisses on her eyes, forehead, and tiny lips.
I feel like I can finally breathe now that I'm seeing my beautiful princess. I missed you so much today that I could barely get any work done at the office.
Staring straight into those eyes still filled with guilt and anxiety, I show her the warmest smile I can muster.
What was bothering our princess so much that she didn't even eat? Shall we go out and eat now? You might feel better if you get something in your stomach.*
