“No, it’s because the Duchess tripped while running! Why would it be because of me?”
“You chased after me, so I ran! Therefore, it’s because of you!”
“Don’t lie! Where is that an excuse?”
“It’s not a lie, fool! Go away! I don’t like you!”
Teary-eyed, Vainti retaliated as if making trouble deliberately.
“I don’t like the Duchess either!”
Suddenly, Arianthe, who had been wriggling around haphazardly, stopped abruptly. Then, with round eyes, she stared at Vainti.
A defeated expression briefly crossed Vainti’s face. Worries about what would happen next began to arise. How would she handle this situation… even if she explained that it was just an impulsive outburst during a childish argument, Arianthe probably wouldn’t believe her.
“Hey, Duchess.”
“I know you don’t like me either.”
This time, Vainti looked at Arianthe with an expression as if she had just received a blow.
Tears welled up in Arianthe’s blue eyes. Vainti hastily extended her hands as if wanting to say something.
“No, I don’t dislike you! I didn’t mean that! Back then, I played pranks, but I genuinely regretted it! I don’t dislike you! I only said that because you said you dislike me! I don’t dislike you!”
Arianthe made a face.
“I know it’s a lie.”
This is so frustrating! Vainti felt a burning desire to turn everything upside down. She hadn’t lied. She really didn’t dislike Arianthe. Although she could be annoying and troublesome at times, with time spent closely, even those moments became familiar.
Moreover, occasionally, she looked very cute. Mostly, she seemed like a little brat who you wanted to pinch, but…
“It’s really not a lie. If I didn’t like the Duchess, would Meiana have let me be? She would have made sure I couldn’t even get close to you. Look now. Do you know why other maids can’t come into this room? It’s because Meiana told me firmly to protect you in case someone does something bad to you.”
Vainti muttered with a silly smile. Arianthe’s body, which had been wriggling around randomly, suddenly stopped. Then, with round eyes, she stared at Vainti.
A distressed expression flashed across Vainti’s face. Soon, worries about what would happen next began to arise. How would she manage this… Arianthe probably wouldn’t believe her even if she explained that it was just an impulsive outburst during a childish argument.
“Uh, Duchess.”
“I also know you don’t like me.”
If it had been the previous Vainti, she would have thought that question was strange. Can you promise not to dislike me? She would probably have asked, “What kind of talk is that?” However, now it wasn’t like that.
For some reason, she could understand Arianthe’s intentions. Although poorly expressed, she could understand the meaning – ‘Do you really not dislike me? Can you promise that you won’t dislike me in the future?’
“I promise. Really.”
Vainti nodded her head. Although the tears that had welled up in Arianthe’s eyes were gone, her gaze staring fixedly at Vainti remained.
It was hard to believe, so it was doubtful, but there was still a part of her that wanted to believe. If someone said, ‘You can trust Vainti’s words,’ Arianthe would believe and take Vainti’s words as an excuse. It might be an emotion that felt confusing to a seven-year-old, but…
Arianthe said, “Can you promise not to dislike me?”
“If it’s a lie, I’ll put a big cicada in your sandwich.”
“Ew, Duchess. Please. I’d rather put a cockroach in than that.”
