Chapter 217 - Satiana’s Decision (1) (1/2)

I was eating breakfast in the dining hall with Satiana in front of me. I can see her glancing every now and while eating. I was curious what she was looking at and followed her gaze. What I saw made me giggle. Jack was quietly standing at the side, looking serious. Satiana's gaze definitely lands on him.

When I finished my meal, Satiana was still half way done. She was distracted with someone and wasn't able to finish quickly.

”Ahem.” I put down my utensils and wiped my mouth with a napkin. ”If you eat that slowly, I am afraid we will be late with our meeting with Miss Matias.” I teased Satiana.

Satiana was startled with my words. It was evident that her attention is with only one person.

”I-I am sorry big sis.” Satiana blushed in embarrassment. ”I will finish eating quickly.” Her reaction made me giggle.

”Don't worry Sati, I won't leave you behind.” I teased her again.

Satiana sped up her eating and was done in no time. Her embarrassed face made we want to tease her more.

”Your highnesses.” Jack walked near after seeing that Satiana and I were finished eating. ”The carriage is ready. If you are done, then I can call for it to wait at the entrance.”

”Yes, please do.” I smiled at Jack.

Jack bowed and left the dining room. My gaze fell upon Satiana looking at the retreating back of Jack.

”You know Sati, if your gaze was the sun and he was chocolate, I am afraid he had melt a long time ago from your stare.” I whispered to Satiana and giggled.

”B-Big sis… don't tease me like that.” Satiana blushed.

”Hahaha. How will I not tease you when you are looking this cute with my teasing?” I laughed. ”Look at you, your face is all red like a tomato.” I playfully pointed a finger at her face.

”W-What?” Satiana held her cheeks with her hands, trying to hide her red cheeks.

”As if that will cover your blushed face.” I giggled. ”Keep calm, he will be back any minute now.” I teased.

Satiana inhaled and exhaled heavily. After a few minutes, Jack returned.

”Your highnesses, I have called the carriage. It will be at the entrance any minute now.” Jack said.

”Thank you.” I replied with a smile. ”Well Sati, let's get going.”

I stood up from my seat and Satiana followed me from behind. As per usual, a group of knights will be escorting us two princesses in our trip. William who was assigned to guard me personally was a few steps behind me. Satiana was still fl.u.s.tered with my teasing and quickly walked to catch up with me. She passed by Jack and he followed right behind her.

Satiana caught up with me and we walked side by side.

”Princess Satiana, are you feeling unwell?” Jack whispered with worry. ”Your face is a little red. Do you feel sick?”

”I-I'm fine.” Satiana nervously replied. ”Maybe because it felt a little hot today.” I giggled knowing the true meaning behind her red face.

”Come to think of it, the days now are becoming hotter. I heard that the snow in the southern parts of Jennovia is starting to thaw and melt.” Jack said.

”Really?” I asked curiously.

”Uh-hmm.” Jack nodded in reply.

After the day I was able to make it rain, the weather here in Jennovia has been improving. Judging from the month, summer should be starting in Alvannia and the northern parts of Grandcrest.
