Chapter 112 (1/2)
Michelie and I made up.
Well, I was the one avoiding Michelie in the first place. It’s not like we were really quarrelling.
But the fact remains that I could have spent that amount of time with Michelie, but wasted it because of my foolishness.
That’s why I’ve decided to host a reconciliation party for me and Michelie.
“Are you stupid or an idiot?”
My guest Surfania said something, but it doesn’t hurt, or even itch. This is the happiest moment for me in the past few years. Having set up a happiness barrier with my sister as the ingredient, I won’t be affected by any insult.
I called it a party, but strictly speaking, it’s more like a tea party. But I felt like calling it a party anyway. In other words, it’s party time to me. I wanna go all out!
The venue of the party is my room. The only ones I’ve invited are my close friends and acquaintances.
Surfania and Leon are the ones I’ve had a long acquaintance with. I’ve invited my sidekicks, Rona and Catalina as well. I wanted to invite Mariwa too, but I couldn’t help it. Even if I had invited her, I’m sure she definitely wouldn’t come.
It’s really small for a party. But that’s fine.
It’s the first step in showing that Michelie and I have established our bond as the Best Sisters. I no longer have to hide the fact that I absolutely love my most adorable Michelie. The first ones I’m telling are Rona and Catalina, and from there, it’ll be the entire Academy. Rona and Catalina’s loose tongues will surely help spread the news.
The ability to gather such talented people around me is definitely one of my strengths.
“……Argh. Michelie took the position of younger sister in the end.”
By the way, what is Freesia doing here?
The maid prepared some tea snacks, and is eating them in my room with a sulky face. For some reason, the girl with golden rolls for her hair is here too. She’s already a strange creature, but her presence adds a layer of mystery.
I never invited her here.
Perhaps sensing my confusion, Michelie chimes in.
“Oh, sorry, big sister. I’m the one who invited Freesia. She’s an old friend of mine.”
“I see. That’s fine then.”
Of course, the Prince isn’t here. I don’t want to bow down to him, and I have nothing to apologize for anyway. It’s alright. I’m the genius Christina Noir. Now that I have no reason to help him through his romance, he’s just an insect trying to crawl his way to my sister.
“But it looks like everyone’s here. They’re all here because they love you, right?”
“That’s right. It’s something to be grateful for.”
Since enrolling into the Academy, I’ve been behaving as I please, and tried to destroy myself. Even then, there are people who are still willing to stand by me. I’m cherishing this moment in a different perspective.
But there’s someone whom I’ve invited but isn’t here.
That person is Charles.
“……So you couldn’t contact Charles at all?”
“Yeah. I haven’t been in contact with him since we parted ways because of our differences.”
Michelie answers with her eyes cast downward.
“I see……”
I sent him an invitation, and even asked Michelie to tell him just in case, but never got a response.
Charles is the only person I can’t predict. He affirmed his love back in the courtyard in the Academy, and yet he hasn’t taken any steps to approach me yet. I wouldn’t mind if he came in acting all conceited right now.
Also, what does she mean, they parted ways because of their differences? I know they worked together for a while in order to mend the fence with me, but I don’t really know why their cooperation fell apart.
“Well, let’s forget about Charles for now. Here, big sister. Open wide.”
“Ahh-”
As if seeing my face becoming gloomy, she picked the best timing and gives me a slice of the party cake.
It’s been a while since I’ve eaten deliciously enchanted food. I sense Rona and Catalina staring at me somehow, but I eat it slowly without giving them much heed.
“Ehehe. Is it tasty, big sister?”
“Yeah, it’s tasty! Here, you too, Michelie–”
“Lady Chris! Let me have some of your blessing too!”
“Here you go-”
“Here I come!”
