Chapter 75: 66

Mia’s Cold-Induced Dreams and Memories Part 1

“Ugh… Awww…”

Mia was groaning painfully as she lay on top her bed inside her bedroom.

On the day of the swordsmanship tournament, Mia stood under the rain watching excitedly Sion’s struggle from Abel. Once it was over, she ran off to Abel and showered him with praises under the rain. Then Abel pointed out how the beautiful and lustrous her hair is once sunlight hit her rain-drenched hair. And so, without listening to Anne’s advice, she moved around with her wet hair the whole day. The result is she caught a cold.

Just after noontime, Mia woke up.

“Anne? Are you here, Anne?”

She looked around the room with heavy and blurry eyes.

“Oh my, it seems strange.”

She was puzzled by the state of her room.

There was no sign of people in the room. It was completely quiet. The room was all cluttered. There were half folded clothes all around, and the inks for pen have been left uncovered on the desk. Though it was messy, Mia was familiar with this room that was in total disarray.

Oh, I know when this is from. This is the last timeline…

Similarly in the previous timeline, Mia also caught a cold.

“That’s right. When I woke up, that girl wasn’t in the room.”

The girl Mia was talking about was her exclusive maid. When Mia fell asleep, she left the room to go outside. That girl was the third daughter of a powerful noble. She always smiled and flattered Mia when they were together. She had been Mia’s favorite and she found her compliments pleasant to her ears.

I heard later that she did not want to catch my cold and so she left to have tea with her attendant friends.

Waking up completely alone, the sun shining to show the emptiness of her room, she felt very alone. Dread started to take over. She held tight on her covers and forced her eyes close. She felt as if she was left all alone in the world. It was very very lonely.

“Mia-sama, Mia-sama …”

There was somebody shaking her body. Mia opens her eyes slowly…

“Mia-sama, are you okay?”

Immediately in front of her was Anne’s face. She seemed to be very worried.

“Wah? Oh, Anne … Oh, then… was that only a dream?”

Unsure and confused, Mia takes a look around. Did someone clean while she was sleeping? The room was neat and tidy, and no dust was in sight. Not only that, but somehow Mia felt calm and peaceful. It was the total opposite of the room in her dream.

“You were tumbling about. Did you have a bad dream?”

“Oh, oh, don’t worry about it. I’m fine.”

Anne exhales a sigh relief upon hearing her answer. It seems that Anne put a chair beside the bed and watched over her all the time.

“Anne, I have a cold. You shouldn’t get too close or you’ll catch it too.”

“What are you talking about, Mia-sama? I’m super healthy, so it’s okay. Don’t worry about me or anything else, just rest and sleep.”

Anne declared with her hands on her hips. She then replaced the cloth on Mia’s forehead with a new one.to something else. The chilly feel of the cloth feels comfortable, and Mia falls asleep again.

“Mia-sama, that girl, she’s reading a book by herself again.”

“Oh my, is she now?”

It was an afternoon one day. One of Mia’s entourages smiled nastily at Chloe reading a book in a corner of the classroom. Chloe did not exist in the memory of Mia’s previous life. She wasn’t her friend, and they had very few interactions. So, she didn’t really remember that day either.

“Hey, what do you think, Mia-sama? About that Chloe girl?”

“I heard she bought her title with money. I cannot believe that there is someone like that in this academy.”

The girls around her made fun of Chloe as they please. Mia didn’t join in, but she didn’t stop them either.

“I’m not very interested with her. What I’m interested is what I heard. Prince Sion’s attendant seems to be a commoner but also very handsome…”

“Oh, Princess Mia. Are you awake?”

When she woke up again, it was Chloe who was by her bedside.

“Oh, Chloe …”

Gently closing the book she was reading, Chloe turned to Mia.

“Is there anything you want me to do? Do you want to drink water? Or do you want something to eat… or…”

“Thank you for your sympathy. But don’t get too close or else you might catch my colds… what is that?”

Mia couldn’t help but notice. A white cloth covered the lower half of Chloe’s face. It covered her nose and mouth.

“This is a mask. It helps to prevent me from catching a cold.”

As expected, Chloe, the daughter of merchants, was unexpectedly knowledgeable.

“Anne is fetching some cold water right now. Also, I brought the cold medicine that my father sent me before, so please take it later.”

Seeing Chloe, who smiled after saying that, Mia softly said…

“I have to apologize to you.”

“Huh?”

Mia ignored Chloe’s confused look and continued on.

“At that time, I pretended not to see you when you were suffering. I’m really sorry.”

“… Well, Princess Mia, was that a dream?”

Chloe giggled.

Dream… maybe that’s the case.

Maybe that wasn’t the case, and the future that will no longer come is like a dream.

Still, the guilt in Mia’s chest was tingling and real. However…

“I’ve had a lot of fun since I became friends with you, Princess Mia. I liked making sandwiches together, but more than that, it’s like a dream to be able to talk about the stories that I have read with a friend. So please don’t apologize. There is nothing to apologize for.”

Chloe’s words made Mia’s heart feel a little lighter.

Feeling a little sleepy again, Mia said in a soft voice.

“… I wonder if you can tell me a story…”

“Hmmm…”

“… Just if want you to do it. If you’ve found something interesting in a book you’ve read recently. You could tell me about it.”

“Okay, well, then…”

Hearing Chloe’s gentle voice, Mia fell asleep again.
