[Episode 78] – When women get together, they always talk about love. (2)

Love?

Love…

Love…?

When Titania was asked what love was, she tilted her head. A lot of words came and went in my head to explain the ambiguous word love, but it was hard to come out of my mouth.

I don’t know ‘exactly’ what love is, but I didn’t know it at all. It’s just that it’s a little difficult to say, but Titania doesn’t know how to define the word love.

First of all, I was able to learn about love through the book I just read, ‘The Witch Wants to Be the Marquis’ Wife.’ In this romance novel, love comes in two forms.

The true love between the marquis and the witch, and the twisted familiar’s love.

Titania knows in her head that the love between the marquis and the witch is the right love, but she also knows that her familiar’s love for the witch is also ‘love’.

She knew that it was all about love, but she didn’t know how to answer the question of what love was. In the first place, is love a word that can be defined in one word?

It was clear that she would not get the right answer even if she asked the adults the same. Because love is explained in various ways in books. Isn’t love different for each person who feels it?

As she grunted and pondered, Viola, who was lying next to her, sighed deeply as she looked up at the ceiling. With a sigh she exhaled, Titania turned her head and looked at her viola.

“Is it because of the match?”

“Yeah…”

Viola frowned at the word confrontation, as if confused.

Actually, it wasn’t a meeting, it was just a face-to-face event, but usually it was ‘engagement’ with the first person, so Viola couldn’t hide her distraught mind.

Laying on the bed and stamping her feet, Viola puffed out her cheeks and grumbled.

“I don’t want to see a confrontation… But my mom says I have to see it… Isn’t she something I can choose in the first place? Even if I hate him, he won’t listen to me…”

Actually, Viola met later than his peers.

Because it was normal for them to meet and meet their opponent Youngshik when they were about 10 years old, there were only two people, Viola and Titania, who hadn’t met each other in the children’s social world. Titania said she couldn’t help it because of her position as a princess… But Viola was in an unusual situation.

So Viola really didn’t like the confrontation. Because through romance novels, they have already learned about ‘love’ that nobles cannot do, and have longed for it. It is sweet and affectionate like a novel, and it was also Viola’s habit of saying that she wants to make a love that can burn even herself.

Viola turned her head and looked at Titania, and asked again.

“So? What do you think love is?”

“Uh, um… Well… To be honest, I’m not sure. Why don’t you ask the guys who are already engaged? There was a kid who said he liked his fiancé, right?”

“You know that kid is in a special situation, right? She’s marrying a childhood friend rather than dating. I heard she grew up with the next family’s kid since she was born? Besides, I even saw him face off.”

Titania and Viola both thought of the girl at the same time.

A little grown-up girl with a new friend I met in a social world the year before. A girl who met and got engaged, and now gets married as soon as she gets older and has a coming-of-age ceremony. Besides, the other person is a childhood friend who has been close since childhood. She was a girl who was envied by the other young girls.

“Haa… Why can’t I have a male childhood friend like him? If it was that childhood friend, I would have been looking forward to this confrontation. You are the only childhood friend I’ve met since childhood.”

“Me, me too? I also don’t have a single male Youngshik around me. I’ve never met him outside of social circles. That’s why I have no one to call a friend but you.”

“Would you like to?”

Titania and Viola met eyes and smiled bashfully as if they were embarrassed as they looked at each other. Then they started playing around by poking each other’s sides with their fingers. In order to hide the embarrassment that began to heat up to her face.

The room was filled with the laughter of the girls as they pricked their sides and continued their pranks. After playing so hard, the two girls, who laughed so much that it was difficult to breathe anymore, stretched out on the bed, exhaling from laughter.

After catching my breath like that for a while, Viola lifted up the book and answered with a grin.

“I think love is ‘wanting to possess the other person’s body, mind and everything’. Like the ‘fellow horse’ who wants to own the witch in the book and is at a loss.”

“What? Until now, you said you didn’t like familiars.”

“The reason why I said I hate the Familiar is because the witch is in love with the Marquis and she keeps interfering. She says she doesn’t like witches, but since she harasses her soggy next to her, who doesn’t hate it? What I sympathized with the familiar is the ‘love’ the familiar has for the witch.”

“Huh?”

When Titania tilted her head as if she didn’t understand, Viola continued her explanation step by step. She has her own definition of love.

“Think carefully, Titania. Imagine if you love someone But that person smiles at everyone other than you and tries to be friendly with you. What do you think?”

“Even if you say that, it doesn’t make sense…? Wouldn’t it just be like that?”

“It doesn’t have to be someone you love. Don’t you have anyone really close? Or someone as close as me? What about pets? Imagine that your pet wags its tail at anyone other than you. But that person is someone you really hate. How is it? Can you feel it?”

“A close person…? Pets…?”

A moment in Titania’s head, deep in thought with her eyes closed-

For some reason, Titania remembered her mother. The only person she was closer to than Viola was her mother.

I know it’s a really rude idea, but Titania started thinking by projecting her mother onto Viola’s ‘pet’. Imagine her mother wagging her tail as she smiles at others.

As she imagined that, Titania’s eyebrows twisted. Something unpleasant roared inside her, warming her body. I wanted to run to her mother right away and yell at her not to do that.

Titania, furrowing her eyebrows, replied.

“…? I don’t think I’d really like it…”

“Isn’t it? Right? Don’t you want to always keep that gaze by my side, and want that person’s heart to always be towards you? Wasn’t this the kind of love the familiar felt for her witch in her book?”

Certainly, I couldn’t deny Viola’s words.

I wondered what the hell she was talking about when she said it was love from her familiar, but when she thought that her mother smiled at someone other than herself and that she loved her, she felt like she was about to burst into tears any moment.

As Titania pouted her lips at the unknown displeasure that welled up inside her, Viola looked at her and smiled as she continued her words.

“Well, the book says this is obsession or jealousy, but I don’t think love without obsession and jealousy doesn’t exist. Aren’t you jealous and obsessed because you love me? The witch wasn’t jealous either, but isn’t it the same as being obsessed with the Marquis?”

“I see…”

Certainly, Titania did not have the same idea as Viola.

To Titania, the familiar in the book was just a bad person who interfered with the love between the witch and her marquis, and she thought that what the familiar did to the witch was only her verbal love. Like Viola, she had never thought of love and obsession as one.

Listening to Viola’s words, the familiar’s heart seemed to understand a little. It was unforgivable for her familiar to do bad things because she was obsessed with witches, but she didn’t just obsess over witches with really bad thoughts, she thought.

‘Wouldn’t it be different if I read that book again now?’

While Titania was staring blankly at the cover of her book, Viola, who was lying next to her, poked Titania’s side with her elbow and smiled sinisterly. Titania looked at her viola, frowning at a really sinister and nasty smile.

“So? So? Who were you thinking of earlier that made you look so scary?”

“What? I?”

“I’ve never seen you make that face. You’ve never put on such a scary face when someone in the social world messes with you. Who were you thinking of that made you look so grim? Huh? Huh? Can’t you just tell me?”

Titania’s face flushed red at the teasing tone. How could she say that she remembered her mother there?

Coming right next to her and pushing Viola’s grinning shoulder, Titania screamed.

“Pets! I imagined a pet!”

“Really~? Did you make such a scary expression just because of your pet? More than that, you don’t have pets-“

“Profit! Stop teasing me!”

Wow!

Unable to hold back her shame any longer, Titania jumped up and attacked her viola. She didn’t stop until her sides were tickled and poked and begged for help from her viola.

When her viola, which burst into tears filled with tears, spread out on her bed laughing hee hee hee, Titania let out a sigh of relief and took her hand off the side of her viola. As she looked down at Viola, who lay limp and limp, Titania sat back in her place and began to think again.

However, she said that the reason she remembered her mother this time was because she had no other partner, and that the reason she didn’t think of Ainsel was because she was a fairy. Rested

‘There’s no way my mother would smile at other people the way she treats me in the first place. She said that my mother always looks at me.’

Lying down on her bed like that, Titania opened the book she had just read and started perusing it. She is a mother and what will she be doing by now – she thinks.

And exactly then, Vivian-

“I’m really going to drink today!”

“Your Highness the Queen is so gorgeous!!!!”

-……I’m going to that princess. Can i go?

I was drunk and out of my mind.
