Who Made Me a Princess-Chapter 50

I was scheduled for a feast with Claude today dinner.

"Dad!"

Actually it was scheduled yesterday, the day before yesterday and tomorrow too. Since 4 years ago, I had dinner with Claude.

Since I came earlier than the time, I went to meet Claude. I ran to him, smiling as always. And I hugged him who was waiting after spotting me.

"I told you not to run."

But I know that you don't dislike me running to you happily. Me who hugged him didn't look like I was hugging but being hugged.

"I wanted to see you today too, dad!"

It was only once I came early to see him because Claude said some other people were visiting the palace and that we had to miss our tea party.

Claude then spoke.

"What's so special about a face you see everyday?"

"Ehehe. But I'm happy."

But if you also didn't miss me, you wouldn't have called me for dinner or tea time, right? Hehe. Pretending he's not.

I smiled brightly as I lifted my heels on tiptoe and kissed Claude on the cheeks. Claude already used to this, knew that he should lower his head down for me to do this.

"Let's go in."

What I did alone with Claude was just talk about today. So I talked about studying the most.

Sniff. I have no choice. I only spend my time in Emerald palace!

"So I like ethics the best. I'm going to get a different book and study that since I finished the last one in 10 days so I'm really excited."

And by talking of studying, it was mostly just me complimenting me. The reasons I mention these are because the teachers actually tells me that and also because to give a message to Claude that I can do whatever!

"And my dance teacher always say...."

I stopped.

Eek. I almost said 'she speaks of my mom' to him!

Sorry, just a habit! It could've been a dirty night if I didn't stop. Ah, my survival system, you work hard as usual. Wahh.

"Say that I look like a dancing fairy"

I naturally switched the words and naturally switched my facial expression with a smile. Then Claude looked at be fore he talked.

"Pondafyu always babbles weird stuff so don't bother."

Are you saying that me dancing like a flying fairy is not agreeable? Kuckkk, a scratch to my heart. You mean person.

"Now that I see, it's almost your birthday."

I stopped moving at that sentence.

Actually, even though it was my birthday, it's quiet as ever. No public party or announcement or anything.

Even Lilly and Felix couldn't help it. Well I didn't ask for that anyways.

The reason for that is because it was embarra.s.sing somehow.

Even in the orphanage, we brought the kids who had their birthday on that month and shared a piece of cake and that was all. Well even though we couldn't really be happy because our birthday were the day we were abandoned to the orphanage.

And when I was older, I didn't have money or time to celebrate my birthday as I had work and had to make money. So I was really not used to it.

But if that was the only reason, Felix and Lilly would definitely make a bigger party.

But the reason why they couldn't was not because of that.

It was because my birthday was the day of death to Diana.

I knew this a while ago but the day when Claude acted like a psycho was the day around her death. Then I thought maybe the 2 can relate.

And that also may be why Claude wouldn't call me on my birthday since when I was 5, the age I was in when I met him.

So I only celebrated with Lilly and Felix. They seemed to be not satisfied about it but it really didn't bother me.

Instead I want no birthday parties at all. It's hard to give an reaction every time I get a present. I mean of course I like presents! Even though I am happy since they both seem to like me truly. But I was still not used to it as I was embarra.s.sed.

But once I said that out loud and they both said 'Princess is a kid who needs to be loved, and today being the happy and thankful day where the most precious princess was born in this world, we MUST celebrate it'with all their energy and might that I became speechless.

I think they thought me as a kid who feels guilty on her birthday because of her mom's death. Wahh. It's not that!

'Do you have something you want?'

But one day when I was 7, Claude asked me that.

Of course I thought 'Huh? Is this human crazy?', but Claude was serious. Now that I think it back, Claude's att.i.tude changed rapidly after the day I almost went in the dirt in the graveyard.

It was then when I heard a sound of a golden bell.

What sound is it? A sound that signals I will live longer! Yay!

But I didn't know what to say. Honestly I wanted to ask for golds and gems for my better future but (My limits. Sob.) but I thought he will be able to guess my intentions too quickly. Sob.

Instead I asked for my Ruby palace maids, Hanna and Seth to come back.

All people seemed to be surprised as they probably thought I would ask for some pretty gem or clothes, shoes, or dolls, well something childish kids may like but didn't.

Especially Lilly was surprised that I still remembered Seth and Hanna. To that I said 'How can I forget those maid unnies who made me flower crowns and gave Atti choco in Ruby palace!'.

How can they think that I would forget someone special in just 2 years. I still remember Lilly saying they'll come back in 100 days!

But Lilly was almost about cried when I said that.

WHY?! That face looked similar to the face she made when I said I wanted to see mom. Then I see, Felix was the same. That gaze was the gaze of looking at a poor child hungry and homeless.

Only Claude was like 'So that's the reason why you were heavy. Chocolate addiction.'.

And the next day, he sent me Hanna and Seth back. They had tears in their eyes, touched, as if they didn't expect me to call them back for my first ever birthday present from Claude.

But what came to Emerald palace weren't only the 2 people. Other maids followed behind the two and when I saw it close, they were chocolates collected world wide.

I was dumbfounded hearing Claude sent these. Really he acts different than how he speaks.

Also the time when I started to kiss him on the cheeks was when I was 9. I really couldn't kiss him when acting cute either before but I really had to that time. I really had to.

I mean Claude! That Claude! Said that there were people came from Obelia who gave goods to him that he gave me the key to the treasure room that opens the whole room full with treasures!

I realized what a true blessing from angel was when Claude tossed me it as if he was saying 'I picked it up on the way. Have it'. Ahh, I still remember the sparkly bright background with Claude with wings in the middle.

That's when I hugged him tight and kissed him on the cheeks with all my love (CLT: Love... Probably created by gems). It was still clear in my memories of Claude's expression then. Kekeke.

anyways age 9 was when Atanasia's bad life begins so I could only see this so meaningful.

What kind of day was it. It was the day Atanasia left Ruby palace and met Claude by accident in the gardens.

That day Atanasia feels warmth and interest but Claude just pa.s.ses by as if he saw nothing.

But I, got the room full of treasures. Hurray!

"Speak if you have something you want this year."

But 'Angel Claude Act' didn't stop there.

he gave me presents even though it was not my birthday as if he was giving me the gifts he couldn't or didn't give until now. So last year, Claude made a library only for me to use without a reason.

"Or something you want me to do."

Sob. Looks like I worked hard and lived up for this day to come. Then what do I need now?

"I like anything dad gives me!"

I smiled brightly at Claude with shining eyes. How nice is it that Claude sends me gifts even when I don't ask for it. Sob. I can't stop the tears.
