22: The Pansy Flower

It’s been three days since I sent a white orchid to Fabio and at last, I finally received a reply! Tanaka told me that there’s a red flower outside my room. He has no idea where it came from and even I had no idea how Fabio sent this flower in front of my room. Does he know any servants that reside inside the Palace? Either way, I can’t wait to find out what’s the meaning of this flower. It looks beautiful with my white orchids.

“Do not sniff those flowers. We never knew where it came from,” Tanaka sensei said.

“I’m pretty sure it came from the garden, but I have no idea who sent it,” I said as I put the flower in my vase that’s full of white orchids. It stands out and looks so beautiful. I should look for its name and meaning so that I can send a reply.

“I haven’t seen that kind of flower in the garden. How can you be sure that it came from our garden?” Tanaka asked.
