Once upon a time

Chapter 7

'Who am I ? Where am I ?  What am I doing here ? '

Athanasia can only conjure up in her heart.

Yes, she is now sitting in the garden at tea time.

She and Claude were sitting in conversation with emperor Meirkan and prince Ruvelis.

And Claude is now very annoyed., that was because of the previous conversation.

.

.

.

All four sat in the garden. Together because emperor Mirkan wanted to chat with the Obelia dynasty and Claude said he wanted to sit outside in the garden.

So they ended up sitting in the garden. Athanasia asked the servant to bring snacks and tea.   The conversation is normal

From time to time, emperor Mirkan may invite Athanasia to talk to him. Most of prince Ruvellis sat quietly sipping tea until the emperor said to Claude,

'' You don't think the princess will be engaged to anyone ? ''

That's all The Claude twitched gently before lowering the cup and responding.

'' I never had such thoughts in my head. ''

'' Why didn't you think about it ? ''

'' Athanasia did not want a fiancée. Because no child is suitable. ''

'' Whoa ... is that so ? ''

And the Emperor laughed at Claude response for not giving up his lovely daughter to anyone.

.

.

.

That was the start of the awkward atmosphere caused by Claude.

But the Emperor and the prince did not care about the atmosphere that Claude released.

'What do I have to do ? What should I say ? '

Athanasia tried to find a solution to this awkward and uncomfortable atmosphere.

''Papa, do I have to have a fiancée ? ''

She asked to try and fix the situation.

'' Obelia doesn't have such a law. ''

'' So I don't have a fiancée. I will not marry, I will stay with my father. ''

Athanasia said with joy and smile.

'' You might say this, but in the future you might ask for your engagement and eventually get married. ''

'' No matter what, the one i love the most is papa ! ''

Athanasia replied with a slightly frowning face.

'' A really beautiful princess has no idea of ​​wanting to get engaged ? ''

The emperor said.

'' Yes, i like being with my father the most. ''

'' Is that correct? It's an innocent answer. ''

He said with a slight smile at the princess response.

'' Hehe. ''

That was the only answer Athanasia responded to. It can only really answer.

Can't say anything. Because you really don't know if the emperor just said that or what he meant.

'I feel very strange.'
