"You think I am normal, you must be naive." I said in a firm tone, my eyes narrowed as I held a daisy flower and picked on the flower petals, one by one falling to the grassy field, Masashi then speaks "I am not naive, and I am not saying you are, Lady Mei. But you are plenty normal, I haven't seen anyone as normal as you, Lady Mei." My eyes widen as i heard his words. I did my best to hold back my smile, i then stood up, I turned around and looked at him, looking into his eyes, not breaking eye contact. "Then, You must be psychotic, what makes you think I am so normal?" He looked at me before opening his lips and speaking. "I was wrong, you aren't normal at all, you are the most purest diamond in this entire empire, no other lady can compete to what you are and what you offer, Lady Mei." Masashi said with a straight face, no emotions whatsoever, and I could see it in his eyes. "Is that so?, either way, I shall take my leave, after all, I cannot stay outside too long without the emperor worrying you know." I said before leaving. After that, i bumped into Cathy and her maid, Adella or rather, Cathy bumped into me in sole purpose to argue and yell at me.

Name: Adella
Age: 27
Career: Cathy's Maid

I didn't hate Adella, Adella was a good person, and she had a sad backstory, she didn't deserve it. Although, I did hate Cathy, she had no remorse for no one, she was a woman who I disliked. As for Adella, she was an unfortunate soul, she's done nothing but take Cathy's abuse for so long. Cathy, a fellow Concubine like me, was my competition despite her thinking she can take my place, she can't, she can take Kai but she won't be able to gain the favor of the emperor, after all, I am favored over all the other concubines in the imperial palace in the entire empire.

"Watch where you are going." Cathy says, I laughed and then speak. "Ha!, good joke, you are the one who bumped into me, don't try so hard, you'll only end making yourself even more of a fool and joke to the whole empire and the emperor and we wouldn't want that, would we?." I said with venom on my tone, i out her back into her place, she deserves getting thrown off a cliff after all so I wouldn't be surprised if she had been thrown off a cliff or hill.

After that, I went back to the imperial palace, taking in the luxurious surroundings I was in, I was gifted with such blessings and gold treasures so I made sure to treasure them, even if it was a bracelet from a child, I liked children very much, they were nothing but pure innocent and angelic beings unlike the others.
