CHAPTER 5

She's the BL fangirl!!

I'm right, right? Right??

Alright, stop saying right.

She's happily interacting with the other nobles and even making jokes with them.

"She's quite a joker"

Lianne commented giggling. She's referring to the letter she sent us.

Greetings Lady Delie La Eclaus,

I'm writing this letter to you since my father told me so hahaha. I don't know how to write a proper invitation so just pretend that it's a formal letter. Anyway, my family will be hosting the upcoming tea party next month! There will be other noble girls there that you can interact with! There will be sweets and teas there! Have a good day!

Sincerely yours,

Anne Vi Claross

Does her parents even now what kind of letter she sent?

"That's how sociable she is"

Phia said then continued.

"Although when it comes to serious conversations and etiquettes, she's really mature"

That's true.

I like how she handled the situation earlier. If I were in her stead, I might argue with Daphne and use swear words if I can't take it anymore.

The author of the novel I'm in must really like Anne's character. Maybe she's an important character here? She might also be the heroine of this novel!

"Everyone, please go to your tables so we can start our tea party!"

She gestures everyone to go to their tables.

She noticed me staring hard on her which made her look at my way and gave me a warm smile.

Huh? She doesn't recognize me? But we only met a week ago...

Maybe she's not the same person? Or she's just pretending like she doesn't remember me.

...

"Lady Delie, I didn't know you can eat a lot"

Phia commented when she saw how many desserts I devoured, yes devoured. A pile of dessert plates are right beside me.

Darn! If I eat more, my other clothes might not fit me as well!

"I was just lost in thought..haha"

I scratched my head.

I am lost in thought, I've been looking at Anne who is having a conversation with other nobles that I didn't realize that I'm eating a lot.

"Pardon me, but I need to go somewhere for a bit! You can continue to enjoy our snacks and tea! You're all also free to explore the manor!"

Anne told everyone before going inside their manor, she looks like she is in a hurry.

"Delie? Are you listening?"

Lianne tapped my shoulders while my eyes are busy following Anne.

"Sorry, I think I need to go to the restroom for a bit"

"Sure...we'll be waiting here"

Valerie nodded before I went down from my chair and went to follow Anne. I need to confirm if she's really the girl in the market last week.

I asked one of the maids who are busy taking the dirty plates from the table where the restroom is.

"It's in the third door after the hallway, young lady"

"Thank you!"

"Do you want me to accompany you?"

"No thank you! I can go there myself"

I'm just busy following Anne. Besides they are all busy and I don't want to disturb them.

"Okay, young lady but if there's anything you need, just call one of us here!"

She said before taking the plates and going inside.

I went inside and saw Anne heading to the hallway.

I'm silently following her and I kept glancing at my back to look if anyone sees me. I even hide on the large vases and figurines of their house so no one can see me.

"The coast is clear"

I mumbled looking behind one more time. I was about to go when I bumped into someone who came from the side behind the wall I'm hiding.

"Ouch!"

My face hits the person which causes me to sit on the floor and hold my nose.

"Sorry about that, are you alright?"

I looked up at the boy reaching his hand and recognize him.

He is Anne's older brother earlier! The one who has a frown expression and doesn't smile.

His voice sounds concerned but his face is completely neutral.

"Thank you, I should also apologize! Pardon me!"

I didn't take his hand and I stand on my own before patting my clothes. He looks confused for a bit and kept looking at his hand.

Oh yeah! I need to introduce myself.

"My name is Delie La Eclaus, I'm the second child and eldest daughter of the La Eclaus count family! Pleasure to meet you!"

I gave him my best smile to the point where my cheeks are hurting. I need to greet him as best as I can, he's the future marquis after all!

"I'm Arthur Vi Claross, the eldest child of the Vi Claross family...it's also a pleasure to meet you"

He bowed for a bit before asking me a question. Again, his face looks completely neutral.

"Why are you here? Shouldn't you be in the tea party?"

He asked me. He is staring right into my eyes which is a bit disturbing for me, did he realized that I'm hiding?

"Uhhmm...I'm actually here to use the restroom but I got lost"

I lied. He puts his hand on his chin for a bit while looking down before he looks back to me.

"Hmm..the restroom is that way-"

He pointed the way behind him.

Why did he think so hard? Doesn't he remember his own restroom or is he thinking of something else?

Anyway, he is quite mysterious.

"Thank you so much!"

I thank him and hurriedly moves away from him to follow Anne.

I can feel him staring at me from my back but I just ignored it. Anne is already out of my sight!

As I was looking for Anne. I saw her went out of a room and was wiping her hands. So the thing she said that she urgently need to go is the restroom.

I went to hide in an another wall and saw her let out a deep sigh.

"Ahhh! I want to finish reading pure love now!"

She complained.

So she really is the BL fangirl! But why did she pretend she didn't remember me?

"Good day!"

I suddenly greet her with a wide smile which made her jump in surprise.

"Oh my goodness!"

She exclaimed then she suddenly realized something and coughed before smiling at me like she didn't react a second ago.

"Good day to you too! What are you doing here?"

"I'm actually looking for the restroom"

"I see...."

She's really smiling like she doesn't know me.

"Soooo...you're the BL fangirl last week, right?"

She looks surprised for a moment but still tries to compose herself.

"Hehehe, what are you talking about?"

She looks nervous.

"I know you, your red hair and green eyes is exactly the same as the girl last week!"

Except that she's dressed fancier today with her blue dress and blue accessories.

"Maybe you're making a mistak-"

Then, we heard a voice of a few young girls talking to each other.

"Alright, let's go inside first!"

She suddenly drags me inside the restroom to hide. She peeks outside the door and saw other noble girls passing by the room we are in before she sighed in relief.

"I hope they didn't hear us"

"Pardon me but can I ask why you drag us here?"

I asked her with a bit of an annoyed tone and arms crossed.

"Umm...you see...uhh...I am the girl you saw last week"

She shyly said touching both of her index fingers together.

"But no one should know my addiction towards BL"

She whispered to me.

"Why?"

"Why? Well my parents also sees me as a joker so when I send the letter to your families, they got angry at me"

"Oh really? and?"

"Do you think they will support their daughter who is addicted to BL? No!"

"Does anyone in your family knows about this?"

She shooks her head.

"No...my brother would tell my parents!"

"Then, your friends?"

"I don't have one"

A long awkward silence.

I coughed to break the silence and asked her why.

"Why don't you have one? You're Anne Vi Claross!"

I mean many girls earlier admires her. So it's given that she must have many friends!

"That's exactly the reason! I'm Anne Vi Claross! I need to be perfect and be an example! That's why I need you to keep my addiction a secret!"

She pleads to me even putting her hands on my shoulder to shake me.

"Of course, I won't tell anyone! So please don't shake me anymore"

"Oh! Sorry!"

She finally stops shaking me. I feel my eyes circling because she shook me really hard.

"You see...a real friend is someone I can talk to someone with my best interest like how I like BL! I'll talk to someone who won't be weirded out of the BL!"

She proclaimed.

"But a friend is someone who will accept you even if you don't have the same interest"

I told her.

"Then, can you be my friend?"

She took my hands and gave me a puppy-eyed look. She's a bit taller than me which made me look up.

"S-sure!"

I replied before she sniffs while smiling.

"I also think BL is special!"

I said.

Yeah well, BL is quite popular in my past life. I think I also remembered a friend of mine liking BL too but of course my awful memory can't remember.

'Princess? What are you doing? We've been waiting for you! Let's all watch BL together! I heard there's a new one in netflix!'

My eyes widen in surprise. I heard an unknown voice from someone.

It's like a small fragment of memory in my past life where four girls are calling out to me to watch BL.

Who's Princess? Why do I feel like I'm the Princess they are calling? Am I a princess in my past life??

Lol. Dream on.

"Ummm...lady Delie?"

Anne noticed that I'm thinking of something which made her very nervous.

"Don't tell me you're thinking that I'm weird and that you're reconsidering being my friend?!"

She's too paranoid. From how she acts, she feels familiar to me like I've known her a long time now.

"No...I'm just thinking of something else"

"Good!"

She smiled.

"Anyway, you can be yourself towards me! We can watch BL together!"

I guaranteed to her. There's nothing wrong with BL!

"Yes! BL! I love BL!!"

Anne responded with a jumping joy. She's really happy.

She took the knob of the door to open  it which reveals Phia, Lianne and Valerie outside smiling.

"Did someone say BL?"

Phia grinned.

They overheard us!!

No! Anne wants it to be a secret!

I looked at Anne since I'm worried at her reaction and saw that she became white like a statue, I can even see her soul getting out of her body.

Oh gosh...

...

They told us the reason why they were outside is because they noticed me taking my time in the restroom and follow me to see if I'm alright and if I have any trouble doing my business (you know what I mean).

They suddenly overheard the part where I said that I will watch BL with Anne.

Currently, we're in their living room on the sofa with Anne still stoned white.

All of us except Anne kept exchanging glances on what to do. Valerie is the one who breaks the silence by asking Phia a question.

"So...have you read the latest volume of Pure Love?"

Valerie asked Phia who nodded.

"Yup! I heard they run away together but was followed by Lennon's sister!"

Phia told Valerie. Lianne suddenly jolted up pouting.

"Don't spoil! I still haven't read the book that far!"

They laughed.

"Yes! Please don't spoil!"

Whoa! Anne suddenly gains conscious!

I think I'm surrounded by BL fangirls. But it's a good thing since Anne is interacting with them well.

"Kyaaa!!! Rajan proposed to Lennon?!"

Valerie squealed after Phia spoiled the ending of volume three.

"Don't spoil!!"

Anne and Lianne complained. I'm here busy eating snacks and having small opinion about BL.

I think I should really watch BL too...

The author of the novel I'm in is quite peculiar.

~Meanwhile at the garden tea party~

"Just how long lady Anne will come back?"

One of the girls asked another girl who are waiting for her to come back.

...

"Thank you everyone for coming today!"

Anne finally ends the tea party successfully. She was mildly scolded by her father for not getting back at the party.

In the end, Anne confessed her addiction to BL to her parents with us but they just laughed and patted her head.

It seems that her mother is also reading BL.

It's a good thing that her parents are now aware of her interest and that they accepts it wholeheartedly.

"Goodbye! Take care!"

Anne went to Phia, Lianne, Valerie and me before we head to our carriage to go home.

"Thank you for the time!"

She gave us a small bow.

"Let's have a tea party in my place next time! I'll recommend some good BL"

Phia told us.

"In my place too!"

I told them.

Anne told us that she'll be sending us letters soon. Before getting inside my carriage, I noticed her brother peeking outside the window on the third floor.

I gave him a small wave but he just closed the curtains.

What a snob child. But he's quite cute though! It feels like I have found a little brother.

As I was going home, I can't still help but think of the scene I recalled in my head. It looks like a small fragment of memory in my past life.

Anne...

She feels so familiar to me...

Her actions and behavior greatly reminds me of someone.

Not only her but Phia, Lianne and Valerie too...
