Chapter 24 - Preparations (2/2)

“How about something like this?”

The owner says, taking out a solid crimson velvet box.

It is grandly opened immediately, to the overwhelming dazzling beautifulness, ‘my eyes, my eyes!!’ I cover my eyes and at the same time stagger……did not happen but, it is true that it is dizzyingly dazzling.

Setting that aside, what first appears from inside is a collaboration of sapphires and diamonds, a magnificent article of rare beauty. Even though things may seem this way- it is simple because an abundant of jewels are used.

“Please try it on”

He says sweetly smiling and handing it over, but my hands are shaking! Sure enough, I must accept this? I hesitate and cannot move when,

“Let us look at your face reflection”

Says Mimosa receiving it instead of me, she fastens it to me neck. Mimosa, thanks for the nice back up!

Looking in the mirror, it is certainly lovely. However the sad reality is the accessories are too beautiful and my face looks blank…… depressing～

I am sulking at my plainess by myself, but to such things I am unconcerned.

“Wow!, it suits her nicely!

Mimosa squints,

“It suits Mistress’s eye colour well. It is very nice”

Dahlia also smiles,

“I also prepared others just in case, but I think this is the best one”

The owner also endorses it.

……it is obviously expensive. The dress from before is also though. Yeah, I do dare to ask the price for this. I think If I hear it, it must absolutely be on a fainting level.

“……well then, with this……”

What will be, will be.

I make a decision.

The dress and accessory appointments end up completely taking up the time, when I notice it is evening.

Though I know it is bad manners, I stretch out on the couch in my room. Because only Dahlia and Mimosa can see me!

“Ah～ I couldn’t do anything today”

Cleaning～, decorating～, gardening and such～

I could not even wear the uniform today.

“Well, occasionally there are days like this”

Mimosa, while giggling, places a cup with hot steam rising from it before me.

“I didn’t know going to a evening party would be difficult like this～”

What on earth have the evening parties been up till now? At the most I would come up with accessories and wear the same dress but… Is it not because there was not such a fuss?

“In a little while, dance and manner lessons will take more time than mansion things”

Ehhh～?! What was that just now?!

Having a quick glance at the voice heard from behind Mimosa, Dahlia says this with a exceedingly big smile. This is a pattern that cannot be refused. Learning, I am.

“gu…..”

My throat has been blocked by Dahlia’s words and smiling face,

“Please leave your weariness recovery and polish up to me!!”

This also Mimosa says with a exceedingly big smile, holding my fist.

Why is～it～ although social evening parties are optional～ I wonder why everyone is enthusiastic like this?
