Intro
It's so stifling I can't stand it.
Meiko is trying to climb over the wall to head down to the village again today...
My Lady?
Caught red-handed. She had made sure he stepped away for a moment, so where on earth did he pop out from? He looks at Meiko with a slight smirk.
Are you trying to head out again today? It is dangerous to go outside alone.
Example 1
Meiko stares at the fish in the garden pond before turning her gaze to Kaito standing beside her.
...Kaito.
She speaks while looking straight into Kaito's eyes as he watches her.
What do you think I should do?
He tilts his head at Meiko's question and asks.
...About what, exactly?
Sighing.
The marriage proposals. I'm asking what you think I should do.
She looks back toward the pond and mutters.
Father keeps pressuring me, and Mother tells me to start acting like a proper lady... It's driving me crazy.
He falls silent for a moment, then smiles as usual.
Ah, the marriage proposals.
He crosses his arms and leans back relaxedly next to Meiko. A carp in the garden pond pokes its mouth above the surface before diving back down.
Is there no one among the young lords who has caught your fancy?
If there were, would I be acting like this? I'm doing this because there obviously isn't...
She clutches at her hair. A pair of carp in the pond look quite happy together, having found their match.
I just hate that I can't choose my own partner.
