Chapter 60: 60: Birthday?

During the majority of the afternoon, we all spent it drinking tea and talk about whatever topics we came up with. Some were just us arguing about something and mostly Eon doing idiotic things, which earned him both the tongue lashing and a hit to the head. I sometimes am conflicted if I would pity him or not. He is pitiful sometimes.

'It's his fault for doing and saying stupid things though...'

After that mini reunion we had, all of them then returned to each their own homes. Ezekiel had left with quite a flash from being escorted by such a number of people. It wouldn't be impossible that a rumor would go around the nobility again. They sure do love rumors a lot.

And I would bet my everything that those rumors would be all exaggerated as well. Could be nasty, or could be not.

I was now back in my room, staring at all the gifts that everyone, and I meant every single person, had sent me. My room literally looked like a mini shop now. Everywhere I look, every corner, and every open space, there are things. 

There were piles of missives above my table, which came from the students who wished me well during my comatose state. Erin said that there were flowers as well and were kept in the greenhouse for safekeeping, so that it won't wilt before I could even get to see it. 

Apparently, the greenhouse had become storage for bouquets and potted plants. It looks like a mini garden now.

I glanced at the room again and sighed for the nth time.

'Burdensome... These are all burdensome...'

Again, I am grateful that everyone is being like this because of me. But looking at the state my room had become...

'How am I going to use them all anyway?'

The gifts that the emperor had given me were placed on the table, and so are the other things that others had sent, all spreaded out for our eyes to see. Just looking at all of these, I felt like it's my birthday or something. 

It also made me wonder how much would this amount to if I ever sell it. Not that I am thinking of doing that… Nope. I am not thinking anything such as that at all. Just in case, you know...

Man. If one day I just decide that I want to live alone and go somewhere remote, I could bring these all with me and I would be set for life. I wouldn't starve!

'Do you see this jeweled bonsai tree just now? This only will last me for decades!'

My eyes then caught sight of the sleeping fox on the bed. It still has not woken up even until now and had remained curled into a ball. I got truly scared at first because I thought it was dead, but it was still breathing when I checked it, which to my relief.

"Now, what am I going to do with these?" I whispered and surveyed the room again.

The emperor had not only given me jewels and gold coins, His Imperial Majesty had also sent me a few fabrics that looked so beautiful that it scared me just by thinking of how much it cost. 

Even I was indecisive to touch it with my bare hands while my maids were all staring at it in wonder and amazement.

"Milady, how about using another room to store these?" Lily suggested.

Another room huh? Not a bad idea... But I can also just push them all inside my walk-in closet. Would that make it look untidy?

'Of course, it would! That's a stupid idea... Let's stick to another room then.'

I slowly bit my lower lip as I narrowed my eyes at the varied boxes in front of me.

"I can't honestly use all this, could I? Especially this one," and pointed to the luminous fabrics.

Those are some of the gifts that were giving me anxiety just by looking at them. 

Unless I decide to make a dress out of it, but then again, I already have too many! Some are not even used yet!

"What a dilemma…"

"Then how about Milady use them for Milady's upcoming birthday?" Erin suggested.

'Hmm? My birthday?'

I looked at her with furrowed brows. I did not know when it is, at all! Come to think of it, have I ever celebrated my birthday before? I can't seem to remember…

Even when I was still in the modern world, I have no such memories of celebrating it once.

"It would be Milady's 16th birthday next month, which means it will also be Milady's social debut," Erin added as she smiled at me. She looked so excited for that supposed social debut of mine.

Oh dang. Is it also that time already? Wait, how long have I been here again? Why do I feel like I have been living here for my whole life? 

What's more strange is, it seems like I am also okay staying here now unlike from the very first time. I had cried then and had wished that I could go back. 

But at this moment, my life in the real world feels more like a dream to me instead of this current reality I am living in.

How strange…

"Milady?" Mari called out when I did not say anything after that.

I snapped out from my thoughts and smiled at them. 

"When was that again?" I inquired. The novel had not noted Nadia's birthday so I have no idea.

Mari was confused after I had asked them that. She was looking at me if I was serious or not. I get her. 

Erin, who had remembered what I told her before, stepped in to my rescue.

"It's the first week of the next month, Milady," she answered.

So soon? And isn't next month's Estelle's birthday too? Hmm…

If I remembered it correctly, Estelle's birthday is also in the first week, isn't it? What a coincidence…

I wonder how Estelle is right now?
