It's 10 am, and the servants of the Henituse household are so busy to make the party perfect.

To their busyness they havent noticed the gifts Cale left in Basen's room, and so in Lily's room because it was chaos.

As soon as Lily woke up, she cried, she cried louder as she cant see the person she wanted to see.

Violan ran into Lily's room to help her calm down.

"Honey, what's wrong?" she asked

Lily continued to cry.

"Waaaaahh... Wahaaaaah!!" she cried louder, it was making them troubled.

Lily wont stop crying.

Just last night she woke up, opening her blue eyes, she saw a beautiful stranger caressing her head, it felt warm and good, and she wants the warmth to stay longer.

Even though it is the hand of the stranger, she felt safe and loved.

The stranger has a beautiful voice, and more beautiful as the stranger sang, her heart flutters, she hugged the stranger tight.

She didnt said anything, because the beautiful voice might stop speaking.

She stared hard to see this stranger, who visited her under the moon.

And she felt they were moving, they were twirling around the room, they were dancing.

As they move around the moonlight struck the face of the stranger.

'Pretty' she thought, she was amazed to see someone this beautiful. 'Prettier than those beautified stones mama admired'

She enjoyed hearing the beautiful voice that sang for her and the prettiest face she faced the dance.

Unfortunately due to short sleep, she felt sleepy, she wanted the stranger to stay with her and introduce him to her family.

"Stay" she finally quietly whispered wishing for the stranger to hear her wish.

But the stranger is busy arranging her bed for her to sleep in.

For the last time, the stranger caressed her head and kissed her forehead that made her fall asleep.

And now she cries, unable to find the stranger, she felt upset.

'I shouldnt fell asleep' she cried


To find the fault for Lily's cries, Violan inspected the room. She looked around and then noticed a strange box on Lily's head bed. She ordered a servant to call Deruth.

She opened the box and saw a few clothes for toddlers and some accessories like masked helmets, to the sum of the clothing of a warrior.

It was cute, but frightening. Who did put the box in the room without being noticed?

is it a warning?

It might be another kidnapping, as they already lost the eldest.... The eldest, Cale would really gift Lily the clothes as he knew her future.

'Cale?' Violan never get rid of the thought that Cale was the one who sent this.

But even though it is Cale, Cale wouldnt be able to get in the mansion.

'Who put it in here?' that is the real question.

Someone strong enough to pass the great knights the Henituse house has.

'Cale might be the one behind the gift but who did delivered this? This is someone strong'

Though the Kingdom quieted down finding Cale, they didnt stopped, even a year of disappearance and even some believed Cale died and lost hope to find him.
