Sasuke was talking with the nobles while they were congratulating him and wishing him the best life.
Only Naruko and Sakura were still sitting on the couch, far from people. "Hey, if you still would marry the Crown Prince, who would you choose to be your Lady-in-Waiting?" Sakura asks. 'Huh?! Lady-in-Waiting?!' Naruko thought.
"Oh, I've never thought of that..." Naruko said.
'And I never had any recommendation on who will have Lady-in-Waiting in my first life. Perhaps, Sasuke must have done something about recommendation.' Naruko thought as she made a sip of the juice. "If you become the Empress, I would want to be your Lady-in-Waiting!" Sakura said.
"Really? Why?" Naruko asks. "I want to be close to my friend, and be a stylist!" Sakura said. 'Ah, Sakura always was into fashion, and, it was her idea with my 15-year birthday in my first life...' Naruko thought. Soon the music changed to slow.
"Ah! Waltz!" Sakura said. 'Great, I hate dancing...' Naruko thought. A person's hand appeared as she was still sitting on the couch. Naruko looked up and saw Tobirama.
"Huh? Crown Prince?! I thought you were in your empire now..." Naruko said. "We got the invitation beforehand and are still staying." He explained.
'Ah, so that's what going on.' Naruko thought. Soon stood up and placed her drink on the table. "Sorry if I sounded rude." She bowed. "It's fine," Tobirama said. Sakura only peeked from behind Naruko.
Then she accepted to dance with Tobirama and began to walk.
Sakura silently gasped as she held her hands together. 'If she marries the Northern Imperial son, will I get to be Lady-in-Waiting?' Sakura thought with hope.
Sasuke only looked angrily at Tobirama who was dancing with Naruko.
Flashback
"Stay away from Naruko." The Emperor said. "Huh? Away from my fiance?! That's crazy!" Sasuke said.
"Do you think it will be alright if you dance with her and she suddenly breaks down right in front of a lot of people? They will think you have done something bad to her." Fugaku said.
"But-" "Don't you think to come closer to her! I will talk with Grand Duke about this engagement." Fugaku said. Sasuke only stared at his father.
End of flashback
People were whispering about how beautiful Naruko and Tobirama dance and being a perfect couple.
Sasuke was becoming crazy because of what people were whispering while being angry at Tobirama.
Then the music stopped and everyone slowly walked to talk with anyone else.
"Naruko! You were just great!" Sakura said as she held Naruko's hands. "Ahaha, thank you, Sakura.." Naruko said. Tobirama only looked at the girls. Sakura looked up, and let go of Naruko's hand.
"Nice to meet you, I'm Sakura Haruno," Sakura said. Tobirama eyes widen in shock. "Sakura...?" He said. Both girls looked up. "Huh? Is something wrong?" Sakura asks. "No, sorry, something familiar name. Don't worry." Tobirama explained.
'Something must he knows about her...' Naruko began to be suspicious about Tobirama.
Meeting room
"Is this about the talk of breaking the engagement?" Minato asks as Fugaku poured tea into the cup. "That is right. I thought for a while, and decided to keep the engagement." He said.
