Side Story 1. Summer Vacation (7)

‘Crazy, crazy.’

I was completely beaten today.

“Yerine, answer me, huh?”

The more I stepped back to avoid Cassius, the more persistent he pushed his face closer.

As if he’s being calm.

“Hmm, why can’t you say a word?”

Cassius grinned and said.

“Is it because you’re so embarrassed that you can’t even answer back?”

His white tooth was revealed on his confident face.

It was because he was happy to succeed in teasing me.

On top of that, I was even more annoyed because his face was so handsome.

Finally, I held my teeth tightly and tinted my finger.

“Oh, it’s cold!”

Cassius, who came close to locking me in his arms, immediately backed away with a few drops of water.

When I saw him like that, I crossed my arms and sued him.

“Don’t make a fuss. It’s just a few drops of water.”

“Ugh, you scared me.”

Cassius poked out his lips and said, wiping the water off his forehead.

“That’s mean. I just said you were cute!”

“That was good. After that was the problem.”

“Don’t tell me you did this to me just because of a few words? You’re so mean!”

Cassius patted his knee, feeling unfair.

“The cuter I tease you, the cuter you are, what am I supposed to do!”

“You shouldn’t be happy to see someone else in trouble.”

“I don’t think that’s what you should be saying, because you’ve been teasing me a lot lately.”

“Have I ever done that?”

Cassius looked dumb as he turned away from the window pretending not to be.

“Okay, you’re gonna do it like that?”

I turned my head and looked straight ahead and said in a voice full of sincerity.

“Your Majesty, I have no idea what you’re talking about.”

Then Cassius replied, nodding his head.

“That’s a lot of lies. I can’t believe it, The Trump, the leader of the aristocracy, is such a good liar…….”

He sighed deeply and said, “I can’t help it.”

“I can’t help it if you come out like that.”

His golden eyes flashed in the dark carriage.

“I didn’t want to go this far.”

The moment I witnessed his sharp eye-glaze that seemed to cut through the darkness, I got goosebumps on my neck.

As expected, Cassius began to approach with a different kind of dangerous energy than before.

‘Huh?’

I crumpled myself desperately into the corner of the carriage, avoiding Cassius, who was gradually narrowing the distance with the thought that this was not it.

“Hey, hey? Cassius?”

But he didn’t answer me and just rolled up his lips.

“Can you hear me? No, listen to me!”

I swung my arms, but it couldn’t stop Cassius.

Simply holding my hands together to block the movement, he muttered with a cold smile.

“You can’t move now, Yerine?”

I knew from that look.

I don’t know what he’s going to do, but Cassius wouldn’t want to stop.

“What should we do, huh?”

Precisely, I was tightly knitted so that my hands could not be pulled out, so there was no other choice.

“Cassius, I’m sorry. I’ve been making fun of–“

“Well, it’s too late.”

Cassius said with a refreshing smile.

“And you splash water on my face, right?”

“Oh, well, because you look hot.”

“Yerine. Are you lying again?”

His golden eyes, which used to emit creepy light, were bent smoothly.

“I can’t help it. I have no choice but to use this method.”

As soon as the words were over, Cassius’s face came right in front of me.

Chu.

With a blatant sound, the soft lips stuck to the cheek and fell.

‘Huh?’

Without even noticing what had happened, his lips touched the other cheek again.

It wasn’t the only one.

In a daze, Cassius kissed everywhere in my face, from my cheeks, chin, eyes, and nose.

Freaked, I pushed him with both my hands and only then did he stop kissing.

“What the hell are you doing?”

Cassius replied in a very peaceful voice.

“Hmm? The kiss of the truth.”

Then he took my left hand and put it on his lips.

“I’ll keep doing it until you say the truth.”

“No, wait a minute!”

“Huh? Are you going to keep lying? Then I won’t stop.”

He purposely kissed my finger with a more explicit sound.

“No, kisses of truth, there’s no such thing? Oh, wait a minute!”

“There’s no such thing? Yes, there is. It’s like this. Can’t you see it?”

“It was just that Cassius wanted to do it, so you say such a thing!”

Then Cassius grinned.

“Oh, my God, I got caught.”

Then he quickly kissed my forehead and pulled my head back without missing a chance.

“No, stop! Stop it!”

However, while struggling, he kissed my face again and gave a confident look.

“No, I don’t want to. I want to go on.”

“Oh, really!”

Inside the carriage, my stuffy voice and Cassius’s excited laughing voice rang out, and the carriage headed toward the beautiful shopping district.

***

“Really, what’s this? The hats and clothes are all over the place.”

“Sorry.”

As soon as we got off the wagon, I grumbled at Cassius. He accepted my complaint in a flutter.

No matter how much I looked at him, he seemed satisfied because he kissed his heart out in the carriage.

‘Honestly, I felt good, but…..’

There’s nothing bad happening to kiss your beloved lover with a look that I’m going to die for.

However, it was only annoying because I had to show him my face that turned red as if it were going to explode throughout the carriage.

“Anyway, you really.”

“Sorry.”

However, he seemed to be unable to control the rising corners of his mouth.

“Let’s cross our arms, Yerine.”

“You’re listening to me, aren’t you? Did you already forget that you were scolded by me just now?”

“But Yerine.”

Cassius replied with a curious look.

“That’s what you say, but you already cross your arm with mine.”

“Oh, it’s okay if you don’t want to hold my arms.”

Cassius hung his arm on my arm at the speed of light before he could lower all his elbow.

“No, how can I not?”

“Yes, that’s enough.”

“Okay, I’m relieved.

“Relieved?”

“Yes.”

When I looked up at Cassius, who nodded, he looked at me and added.

“What if someone catches you?”

Cassius looked around and said.

“What?”

I frowned and asked back, but Cassius replied with a serious face.

“Someone could be looking for you since you’re so cute, pretty, gorgeous, magical, and kind.”

Cassius gritted his teeth with a wary look.

I was dumbfounded when he worried about an adult woman over 20 years old, I replied.

“I think Cassius is the only one who’s after me.”

Cassius then opened his mouth to refute it, but quickly shut up.

“Honestly, you have nothing to say?”

“…….”

“That’s right.”

Sighing, he fixed his hat with his hands without his arms crossed and said,

“But you know it’s a really useless worry, right? There’s no other one to take me.”

“Well, that’s what I think, but you don’t know about other people.”

Cassius turned his head and talked softly.

“In fact, that’s why you should be careful not to let anyone take you.”

“What do you mean?”

I turned my head and asked.

Then Cassius replied in a dry voice, softly and quietly.

“If that happens, the person who kidnapped you will be roasted and half-dead by you?”

“Ah.”

“Of course, it’s still cheap punishment at the point of kidnapping you.”

Cassius said with a light smile.

No wonder I thought the laugh was scary, but I didn’t dare to spit it out.

“Oh, we’re finally here.”

Cassius, who was walking on the street, said in a small voice in my ear.

Dayseina, the main street of Jacqueline.

It was a place full of sparkling shops and people with happy expressions.

The enormous arched entrance, soaring high in the sky, was shrouded in beautiful green rose bushes.

The rose on the top of the arch was blooming in the shape of the phrase ‘Welcome to Dayseina’.

“Wow, that’s pretty. It’s a representative tourist destination.”

Cassius stopped for a moment and led my hand looking at the arch entrance.

“Let’s get in there. I’ll play as much as I want.”

His sparkling gold eye was lively, and the gaze at me was soaked with happiness.

I replied with a quiet smile.

“Of course.”

As if we became young children exploring a secret place, we squeezed each other’s hands and ran away.

***

“Oh, this is good, Cassius, try it.”

“Thanks, eat mine here, too.”

We, who started looking around Dayseina in earnest, bought a lot of snacks that didn’t usually have many opportunities to eat.

I finally heard a shout from Clayton, who quietly followed us from behind because we had bought too much, saying that we couldn’t eat dinner if we ate too much.

“It’s so good, Clayton.”

“Yeah. Should I just ignore him and buy another one?”

“That’s good, but can I?”

“If it weren’t for this time, when would we ever get away?”

Cassius said, putting a chocolate-covered rainbow powder in his mouth.

“Cassius, that’s very convincing.”

Afterward, Clayton noticed that he had bought a snack and ate too much snack, and he heard a nagging bomb, but that was later.

“But we ate too much, can we still go to the restaurant?”

“Well….”

I was so excited to see colorful street snacks that I completely forgot my previous plans.

“Wouldn’t you feel hungry after an hour or two hours of walking?”

“That’s a great idea.”

“Okay, then I’ll finish up and walk a little bit near here before we go in.”

After that conclusion, I sat on a bench near the fountain and ate the snacks that I bought.

Meanwhile, a small store at the corner of the street caught my eye.

There were only strange patterns on the signboard, but there were no letters at all, so I couldn’t tell what store it was.

Nevertheless, people were waiting in line in front of the suspicious store.

“Cassius, what is that place, and what is it that people are standing in such a long line?”

“Hmm? Oh, there? I heard it’s a store run by a famous prophet.”

“Oh, really?”

“Do you want to go? We have some time anyway.”

That’s how we stopped by the prophet’s shop.

At first, I only saw the store and didn’t know it was a prophet’s shop.

After waiting in line, I entered the store and found a plaque in front of her desk.

‘Oh, Mrs. Tarien’s shop was here.’

Mrs. Tarien was a well-known prophet in the Empire.

I sat side by side with Cassius in front of Mrs. Tarien wore a hat so large that it covered half of her face.

She spoke in a slightly hoarse voice as soon as the two of us sat down.

“Oh, my God, those precious people in the humble….”

We weren’t particularly disguised, but we both chose modest clothes rather than the official statues, so no one even recognized us on the street.

So I was struck by her remarks that seemed to know who we were.

“It’s an honor. What do you want to ask me?”

“Well, I’d like to hear your overall fortune and your dream commentary for both of us.”

At Cassius’s words, Mrs. Tarien nodded and drew a crystal ball that was tucked away in the corner of the desk.

“Now, you can put your hands here.”

Mrs. Tarien looked at Cassius, Cassius put his hand on the crystal ball without saying a word.

Then a snow-white fog rose from the crystal ball.

“Well, you can take your hand off.”

Mrs. Tarien who dragged the crystal ball in front of her put her hands on it.

After a while, Mrs. Tarien, who was looking at Crystal ball with her hands down, was startled and looked into Crystal ball again.

“Is there something out there?”

But she murmured blankly as if she hadn’t heard Cassius.

“Oh, my God……..”

Her trembling voice echoed before us.
