[DISCONTINUED] I was reincarnated in The Abandoned Empress as a minor character

.08. Breakfast

"The Lord has requested you take breakfast with him today my lady"

I don't think i had ever taken breakfast with him(my father) before.

My room was unusually crowded with maids who were frustratingly looking out clothes to dress me up

"Wah! My lady looks very cute!" One of the maids exclaimed

"Thank you! I'm happy you helped! Everyone did there best!"

All of the maids turned into a shade of red

"My she's an angel!"

"I want to serve the lady everyday!"

This smile is the best weapon ever!

I was escorted towards the dining room and the maids opened up the door for me

*GASP*

The dining hall was huge! i couldn't even see the end of it!

Suddenly i felt poor *sob*

I opened my eyes and th-

*freeze*

What are they doing here?

"Good morning brothers!"

*smile*

...I guess it was to be expected to see them here.

Of-course it was it's not like they live here and usually take meals together! I should have prepared in advance! What now?

Eldred and Enrad looked over at me, i couldn't get what Eldred was thinking or read the slight glance he gave me

but i could tell Enrad was annoyed to see me there, i felt uncomfortable all of a sudden

If I remember correctly, Eldred was the same age as Verita's eldest son, While Enrad was about Carsein and Allendis' age, 15?

I glanced around the table and took a seat besides the archduke's chair

Why am i being glared at by Enrad again?

"Good morning father!" I smiled

But his reaction changed into a frown,

"...back at it again"

"Pardon?"

The kitchen maids suddenly busted inside the hall,

Yes hall, room would be an insult, and these people were so rich that they had maids for diverse work!

The table was filled with such extravagant food, 'Suddenly i feel poor again *tears*

'i bet one plate could pay my monthly rent back in Korea'

"You're drooling" Eldred smirked

"Huh?" I flushed

Embarrassing! you find this amusing?

I quickly wiped down my mouth

"Eat"

I looked over the archduke and hesitantly took a bite and

i felt like my soul was leaving my body

I can die peacefully now after savoring such a delice!

"Pfft!"

Enrad's laugh snapped me out of my thoughts

"HAHA...w-what's with that f-face!"

'I think i became a tomato now'

"Enrad, mind your manners" archduke warned

But his lips quivered, and he covered it with his hand

You find this funny too?

"Pftt!" I turned my head to Eldred who was also struggling to hold his laugh

I swear these people

"E-Eat don't mind us!"

it doesn't sound that reassuring coming from you Enrad.

The rest of the meal was silent but this man couldn't stop looking no, staring at me.

"Is something of the matter father?" I tilted my head as he frowned

Did i say something wrong?

"Do you usually eat like this"

"Yes?"

"You don't eat properly then" he said as if taking note

"Hm?"

"Even though you look quite chubby I've only seen you take three spoons"

Did he just call me fat?

"But they told me I'd look ugly if ate too much" i retorted

silence...

Did i make a mistake?

"Who dared to spout that nonsense"

The room suddenly became eerie, their expressions had changed into glares, at the back of my eyes I could see the maids shaking with a look of terror in their eyes

Shit

"But father just said i looked chubby a moment ago, if i eat more I'll get even fatter!"

"What kind of logic is that?"

Not helping Enrad

"Here"

"Wh-!"

My mouth was filled with a fluffy food all of a sudden

I think the archduke fed me

"You shouldn't care about what others say, if you're not chubby people will think i don't feed you properly"

I nodded

In a way he's telling me he'll get worried if I don't eat and look healthy

Even if i couldn't see it, I could tell I was blushing slightly

It felt good to have someone care for me for once,

I looked over at the archdukes' smiling face which in return made me smile, Eldred did too and Enrad was slightly blushing

This time I'll survive and save you all!

"You like it? It's called fuku" Eldred had leaned over on the table with his hands crossing each other beneath his chin

"Then Estelle likes sweet things!" Enrad concluded with a smile

Cute!

"Then I'll have the maids prepare it every day" the archdukes' face had turned serious again

He looked handsome when he smiled th-

*mental slap*

And so breakfast passed just like that.

someone get me a therapist.
