Chapter 195 - Day 2 of debutante party part 1 (2/2)
”Funny, I don't remember you raising me as a daughter at all, more like you're raising a tool for your own desire” [Diana]
”That's it! You have crossed the line, disrespecting the queen like...” [Third queen]
”Diana, are you done?” [Fourth queen]
”Yes dear step mother, I just finished all my business” [Diana]
”Then let us go” [King Estel]
”I will” [Diana]
Good thing I'm already on my dress. It's hot, stuffy and restrictive should I use the traditional dress that is always being worn by previous the princessess for debutante, so I ordered a custom made one that emphasizes more for my own comfortable and, it's not restricting my movement, which is nice
”Tell me dear, who might be your lucky partner for the first dance tonight?” [Fourth queen]
”Obviously it's the first prince! And you better invite him as well!” [Third queen]
She's teasing me now. Traditionally, one would dance with her future husband as their first dance partner, but I don't have anyone in my mind, so the safest bet will be
”Of course it will be dear father” [Diana]
”Diana...” [King Estel]
Father, you're over reacting right now... I never once see you crying like that
”How about the behemoth slayer, you're close with him” [Fourth queen]
”Absolutely not!” [Third queen]
”He will just laugh at my dress and purposely step on my foot” [Diana]
Well, he wouldn't go that far, but that's sincerely the first thing that comes to my mind when thinking of dancing with him
”So you're saying you don't mind dancing with him?” [Fourth queen]
”Huh, didn't I tell you...” [Diana]
”Alright then, how about Sir Ceanu Reaves?” [Fourth queen]
”No, I don't want to dance with him” [Diana]
”Sir Crow?” [Fourth queen]
”No” [Diana]
”Then Ash?” [Fourth queen]
”Like I said, he will laugh at me and step on my foot” [Diana]
”I see, O young maiden” [Fourth queen]
”?” [Diana]
Did I said something wrong? Dear step mother seems to be reminiscing of her memory while Dear Father seems kinda furious... Did I tell something wrong?
”Let us go” [King Estel]
”Wait, Diana! Dear! And you witch! Stop” [Third queen]
Holding the fourth queen hand as well as father, a strange feeling envelope within me... What is this? It's warmth, different from the warmth that I received when looking after those orphans
”Your highness, everything is ready...” [Bladel]
”Is something wrong...” [Kara]
”Why did you say that?” [Diana]
”You're crying” [Mara]
”You must be very happy right now, so why are you crying?” [Savel]
Aahh... I didn't realize it. This is embarrassing. Better wipe my tears
”Here's a tissue” [Charlotte]
”Thank you” [Diana]
”Your dress will go ruin you know” (Though I'm happy the Diana I know finally get to hold hands together with her parents) [Haliza]
The orphans are all looking at me, worrying about me. This is not good, I should say something
”You guys... thank you... from the bottom of my heart” [Diana]
