When I Saved a Girl Who Was About to Be Kidnapped and It Turned Out to Be a Princess Who Had Come to Visit in Secret
“–You had fun last night, didn’t you?”
I woke up in the morning to find Ayla chan standing by my bed, looking down at me with a smirk on her face.
“…… morning, would you please stop making misleading remarks?”
My head still a bit fuzzy from sleeping, I thought for a moment about the meaning of the words she said before replying.
Surely, I would have enjoyed it if I looked at it differently.
The date had made Luna even more pampered, and even in bed, she was always begging to be pampered without falling asleep.
If she meant that I enjoyed her cute and pampered personality, then Ayla chan was right.
But when a third party hears what she said, they would definitely mistake it for sexual intercourse.
If that happened, I didn’t know what anyone would say.
–Well, I guess Ayla chan simply wanted to make me feel nervous when I woke up from sleep.
“You are a boring man”
“Don’t try to play with your master’s fiancée.”
I intentionally used honorifics and smiled back at Ayla-chan, who pouted her lips in dissatisfaction.
I think this girl’s fearlessness is truly amazing.
“Today is Luna-sama’s welcome party, right?”
Ayla-chan brilliantly ignored my bitter words and tilted her head in a cute way.
She really has a good personality.
“Yes, it’s from noon. To be honest, I’m nervous to be alone among all the girls.”
Even though we were in a close class, being the only boy in the class felt completely away.
It can’t be helped since my escape route is blocked, and I want to hold a welcome party for Luna, but I end up putting it on the back burner.
“It’s the same for Luna-sama.”
“Eh?”
I was told something unexpected, and I nodded my head.
“She is used to appearing in front of people and talking to people she meeting for the first time, but she is not used to playing with children her own age. I think the reason why Luna-sama wanted Seito-sama to be with her was because she felt sad, apart from wanting to be with Seito-sama.”
Ayla-chan told me the real reason why Luna invited me to the welcome party.
To be honest, I hadn’t thought about it.
Luna quickly bonded with her classmates and talked to everyone with a smile on her face.
“I see,……, that’s true too.”
Normally, it must be uncomfortable to mix alone among people you barely know.
Even though they had been in the same classroom for about a week, it was still not enough to get to know each other.
I had thought that she just wanted to be together, but Ayla chan’s words made me change my mind about the welcoming committee.
Until now, I had been thinking why me, but if Luna is relying on me because she is feeling lonely, I wanted to repay her properly.
[—Well, you’ve got a good look on your face. After all, you are a sincere and dependable person in times of need]
“Hnn? What did you say?”
I asked Ayla chan, who was looking at me, as she mumbled something in English.
“No, I was just muttering that Luna-sama’s sleeping face is very lovely today.”
It seemed I had nothing to do with it at all.
