Tsk, I got caught, and of all people, it had to be in front of Her Majesty. It was a statement uttered out of concern, but Roji couldn’t understand why her lips kept curling up little by little.
Confessing to herself, a concubine, put Prince Norton in a very awkward position.
“But liking someone isn’t a sin, right? You should have written a letter. Then things wouldn’t have escalated like this.”
Roji was genuinely worried about Prince Norton.
“Her Majesty won’t punish you severely, will she? I don’t think it’ll be a punishment like throwing you into the underground prison for a few days…”
She said that, but in her mind, a vision of Prince Norton sitting alone in the prison kept flashing by.
She furrowed her brow deeply.
Emperor Rinele has no interest in me. That was true for her as well.
“Maybe she’s calling me to give a warning?”
Roji hoped her speculation was correct.
Even if Her Majesty and I have never exchanged a word, I am a concubine.
At the same time, she reminded herself that she was in a position where she couldn’t accept Prince Norton’s feelings.
“How should I comfort him? No, it’s better to deal with it calmly.”
Roji resolved firmly in her mind.
But there was a lingering feeling of bitterness in her heart.
“Roji Mama.”
“Oh, Prince Norton.”
The person who had been bothering her in her mind since last night appeared.
Without trying to force a smile and tightly sealing her lips, Roji repeated it to herself inwardly.
Calm expression, cold expression. Arrogant expression.
“Were you waiting for me, by any chance?”
“…Yes? Mama, aren’t you going to the main palace now? We seem to have some business there today.”
“Oh, right.”
Roji responded with a bright expression.
Prince Norton seemed a bit sullen, perhaps because he hadn’t slept well since last night.
“Mama, since we’ve met, let’s go together. Let’s also talk about what we couldn’t finish yesterday.”
“Since we’ve met like this, I guess we can’t help it. Sure.”
“…Yes.”
The two started heading to the main palace together.
Prince Norton walked alongside Roji, adjusting his pace to match her slow steps.
No matter how much she thought about it, her courage last night seemed quite imaginary.
Even though she was a concubine, she unabashedly confessed her love to a prince from another country.
She didn’t know when they met just a few times before, but seeing her again today, she seemed more confident and assertive.
‘A woman who doesn’t care about others’ gazes.’
Prince Norton thought, looking at the gaudy flower-shaped hairpin stuck in her side hair.
Sensing Prince Norton’s gaze constantly fluttering towards her, Roji secretly bit her tongue.
‘Prince, no matter how much you send me such desperate looks, I can’t accept your feelings.’
Seeing her slouched shoulders, Prince Norton also felt sorry in his heart.
‘Mama showed great courage yesterday, but since we each have our positions, futile love should be let go.’
They were sending comforting glances to each other.
“You look like you haven’t slept through the night?”
Roji, who had been walking in silence for a while, spoke to Prince Norton first.
“If you had slept well after such an event yesterday, that wouldn’t be human.”
The prince responded with a deliberately deeper tone, filled with apologies.
“Ah, I hope that wasn’t the case. My heart really isn’t at ease in many ways.”
What to do, Prince Norton’s face has become half because of me.
In worried Roji’s eyes, there was a hint of the winner’s composure.
Unaware of this fact, Prince Norton was rather moved by Roji’s words.
“Mama Roji, you are indeed considerate.”
Even though she knew it was an impossible relationship, she courageously confessed, and even in the midst of being summoned to the office, she was worrying about him.
Misunderstandings between them were flowing like a stream, gradually heading towards the vast sea.
“Um… it’s not the right time to say this in the current situation, but I still want to tell you.”
Before entering the main palace lobby after arriving, Roji stopped Prince Norton with a determined voice.
“Please tell me, Mama.”
Prince Norton looked at her with a generous gaze.
If it was a request to hold hands just once, he was willing to grant that.
Even a hug, gladly.
“Yesterday is yesterday, and there’s something I want to ask of you, Your Highness.”
Roji straightforwardly brought up the matter.
