I can feel someone brushing my hair. Such a careful and gentle touch.

I wonder who it might be… I feel so safe. It's like I am sleeping in Grandfather's embrace.

Wait a second… I was in the carriage with the Crown Prince. I hurriedly opened my eyes.

"Princess."

Leonus said while gazing at me intensely. I was asleep in his arms. I hurriedly got away.

All of my disgraceful behaviour came to my mind at once.

I fell asleep in his arms while crying. Aghh! So embarrassing! His shirt is wet. Wait…! Did I drool?

Ughh~ Someone kill me!

"I-I apologize! Your shirt is wet because of me!"

Ughh~ I want to dig a hole and hide.

"Well, it can't be helped. It's already wet, Princess."

"Uh-umm. Wh-What should I do?"

"Well, you have to do something. How about you wipe it for me."

"Of course."
