Chapter 23: Are You Stalking Me?

Carla went back to her room, she might be excited about achieving the room, but there will be a lot of time to explore it. For now, gaining the book is enough.

Though it is pretty useless for her now as she already read it all, still, if ever she needs it, she can read it any time.

The maid that was waiting at the door outside, saw Carla opened Carla's room's door. "Miss, do you need anything?"

Carla shook her head, "I'm good. Whersh Mama? Not home yet?"

"Still not home yet, Miss." The maid replied.

"I shee." Carla walked through the long hallway and thought about what to do next.

While walking, she felt tired already. The hallway is too long for her tiny feet! She hadn't reached 1/4 of the hallway yet! Is it regretful to choose the room early?

No! It's fine!

Carla stopped and yawn. The maid behind her sense that she is tired, thus, she suggested, "Miss, would you like me to carry you?"

Carla looked at the maid and stretched her arms, indicating she agreed. The maid smiled and carried her. "Miss, where to?"

"Room, shleepy." Carla snuggled at the maid's shoulder. And fell asleep.

The maid smiled to her ears as the fluffy Carla snuggled at her. "Uwahh! Miss snuggles at me! I bet everyone would be jealous of hearing this! Ahh, I love my job..."

....

When Carla woke up, she was already in her bed with no one beside her. "It'sh dark." She panicked, "Ihk! Did I shlept too much again?! What day ish it?!"

She stood up fast but felt dizzy from that action, she laid down on her bed again.

The butterflies showed up with laughter.

"Master, you just took a nap, hahaha!" Lulu said with a cheery voice.

Lucy flapped her wings in front of Lulu and flew her using the air created by her wings being flapped, to not so far away, "Knock it off. Master, you only slept for three hours. It's just that the curtains were closed." By saying this, she moved one curtain and the outside showed brightness.

Carla was dumbstruck, she panicked for just a nap. Now that she thought of it, she played and decorated all morning until afternoon, she strolled to that hidden passageway.

With her tiny feet, tiny body, even if she had a lot of energy, she would completely tired.

She let out a sigh, "I shee," She slowly stood up this time and went to the bathroom near the exit/entrance door. She washed her face before going out again.

The maid saw her out and followed her. Carla stopped and let the maid carry her, she was reluctant to walk on her own in this long hallway this time.

When they reached the dining area, Leila, Claude, and Annalisa were already there. They greeted her with a big smile.

The maid brought Carla down and went to her supposed position after she bowed to them.

"Dear, how was your rest?" Leila guide Carla to her seat beside her.

"Yesh! I feel sho pretty!" Carla enthusiastically said.

Everyone laughed softly from her remarks. The food was brought to the table and everyone started to dig in.

"How's the shopping earlier?" Claude asked his wife and opened a topic.

"Ohh, everything went smoothly. Pft, I could still remember Anna's face when she spilled her drink from her nose!" Leila controlled her laughter.

"Pft, Hahaha! Aunt Anna ish sho funny!" Carla couldn't help but join.

"I mean, it's Annalisa we are talking about, why not enjoy it?"  Carla thought.

Annalisa blushed and covered her face, "Wahh! I don't wanna remember it again!"

"Pft! My bad, my bad," Leila still laughed but held her mouth.

Claude inhaled and then exhaled, "I don't know anything. I am not even here."

Anna puffed her cheeks and crossed her arms.

Claude saw it and find it cute, he smiled unconsciously. Leila wiped her joy tears and didn't see anything.

As for Carla, even though she was smirking, she saw everything. In the small body with a big world view of hers, how could she not?

She felt disgusted, she continued eating her food instead and ignored them.

The family of three plus one enjoyed the dinner. Well, Carla did enjoy the food, when she ignored them.

After dinner, Leila brought Carla to her room and accompany her for a while.

Annalisa went out to the garden as she strolled. After eating, she would walk around for at least 20 minutes to help herself digest the food from her stomach.

This became a habit to her and the reason why she was still fit and slim.

Unknowingly, she bumped into Claude again.

"Oh my, are you stalking me?" Annalisa laughed softly and made a joke.

Claude was stunned for a moment, "Haha! I guess I did!"

He was honestly telling the truth, just as his wife and daughter went somewhere, he saw Annalisa went out.

He was captivated by her cuteness earlier and couldn't get rid of that face even now. Unconsciously, he followed her.

When Annalisa asked that question, that was the time he woke up and came back to reality.

Still, seeing her laughing,  he knew she was just joking around. He joined her even though it was the truth.

Annalisa smirked, "Ohh, it seems my beauty is hard to resist."

Claude acted like he was captivated by her and hold his head, "Arg! You-you are too beautiful!" Even though he said it like a joke, it was true.

Annalisa felt something in her heart but ignored it. The two of them laughed at their jokes.
