Chapter 49:- Us in a frame

I took my cup to drink the tea that was served. I was shy and embarrassed that I snuck in to the imperial library just to...see him. Where I was fidgeting, he was casually taking sips from his cup with crossed legs. He was carefree, whereas I was just finding a place to hide myself.

We were silent for a past few while. None of us were trying to start our conversation with a particular topic. Although I was, he seemed to not be. Just taking sips from his teacup. I was feeling hesitant to take sips like him.

However, there was another big problem more than drinking tea. It was talking with him. My mind was blank from thinking about something to discuss.

But luckily, Octavious cut off that forever-looking silence of the garden. He put on a gentle face and spoke.

"Saintess, did you get in any trouble to come here?"

"Sincerely, no. But I think I will be in big trouble when I go back."
