One Flower (5)

The flowers that he, Kirsi, and Cayden had grown fall on Daisy’s lap.

“To the most beautiful woman.”

His soft voice spread through the quiet stadium, and everyone woke up as if exploding at the words spoken by the blunt knight.

The men applauded his courage to give the gift in front of everyone, and the women groaned at the envy and sweetness.

Cheers and whistles, applause and excited shouts filled the space.

Asena looked around.

I wanted to stop the bursting atmosphere, but it was not enough by myself.

Even in her eyes, the image of a knight in black armor handing flowers and a woman receiving it shone like a painting.

Asena quickly looked around. Everyone seemed to be cheering for these two men and women. It was like a nightmare.

The student council president, Lucille Hover, grabbed Asena’s shoulder and spoke into her ear.

“Wow… you are so brave, brother.”

“……”

Asena bit her teeth tightly. I had to stop this atmosphere.

I wanted to run to Kaden right now and ask what he was doing.

But after that, Kaden turned away without any regrets.

He approaches the podium that was called for the first time.

Asena’s eyes eventually fixed on what was left of Daisy Hexter.

She blushed shyly and looked down at the floor.

It was like the expression on which an innocent country girl would receive flowers and show them.

“…”

Asena looked at her coldly. It looked like it was going to be a laugh.

Daisy was now mistaken.

I thought it was a flower with many meanings, but it wasn’t.

It’s just a gift. I only give because it’s pretty. It doesn’t matter what your heart is

Anyway, Kayden has always said that Asena herself is the prettiest.

He had come in hundreds of times, but Daisy, who was happy to hear it only once and was shy, couldn’t look at it.

It ended with applause from everyone, and people took their seats one by one.

Asena grabbed her skirt.

I closed my eyes and took a deep breath.

It didn’t mean anything anyway, so you should calm down.

…but, this anger did not die.

****

I went back to the frenetic stadium, back into the makeshift tent.

heart was beating fast.

I got off the rush and calmed the equally excited rush.

At first, I thought it was a selfish word, but now love is accumulating.

Was this the bond Sir Hoslow spoke of?

“You did a great job, Rush. Thank you, my friend.”

I stroked Rush and said thank you. As long as the lance was short, there were many times when it was really close…

I think I overcame it with Rush’s consideration each time. Slow down a little, or lower your posture…

It was a clever word.

My legs were still trembling. The excitement of the battle hadn’t gone away yet.

To calm his mind, he took a flower left in his saddle pocket and smelled it.

I prepared two songs. Of course it was for twins. But… he changed his mind in the middle.

I admit it was somewhat impulsive.

Giving gifts to twins for various reasons I don’t want to give flowers as a gift.

Advice from Liana’s grandmother.

My love for Daisy.

Without thinking about this triple beat, I handed over the present.

It was shameful if it was shameful that people responded as if a new couple had joined together.

It may be a difficult situation for Daisy Hexter.

“Whoa…”

Anyway, it’s a gift that I praised for being pretty. what could go wrong

I started taking off the heavy armor one by one.

– Flutter!

The tent is tilted like a gust of wind and someone jumps in.

“…Ouch, what is it?”

I was startled by the sound and reacted like an uncle.

At the entrance, Kirsi was standing with her two feet straight on the ground with a stiff face.

Asena followed after quietly.

“……”

Kirsi, as usual, ‘Oppa!’ There was no such thing as calling me out loud and jumping in to hug me, or smiling like an idiot.

Asena looked at me with a harder expression than usual. It’s quite intimidating to see two twins doing that.

But my brother became the champion, and they have faces like that.

I was confused.

If it’s twins that I’ve known and grew up together, it’s probably because I didn’t get flowers as a gift.

If it’s the twins I don’t know, who chewed me on the back, and slapped me on the lance, it’s probably because I did well in competitions.

First of all, I greeted them with a light greeting.

“…Oppa became the champion, won’t you congratulate me?”

Without taking off the last boot on my left leg, I stood up and spread my arms.

It was then that Kirsey moved.

Still without expression on his face, he strode closer to me.

…to be honest, I was a bit scared. As if I was talking behind the scenes, I was afraid that I would reveal my true feelings and hurt my heart.

-Pak!

But she started attacking me directly, not with words, but with her body.

She pushed me against my chest with her arms. It looked like he was trying to push me against the wall.

However, due to the fierce battle, my body was somewhat defensive against external stimuli, and as a result, I was not pushed.

“…..”

As soon as I did not push, Kirsi frowned once more and pushed me two more times.

Still I didn’t push, and she started punching my chest without saying a word, whether it was stuffy or not.

-Puck! Puck! Puck!

Her slender fists didn’t hurt. It’s just confusing. It was the first time she did this to me.

“Kirsi, why?”

I took all of her attacks with my chest still open.

Hearing my voice, Kirsi’s angry expression began to cry more and more.

She didn’t stop acting.

-Puck!Puck!Puck!Puck!

Eventually I grab her hand. She clasped her arms and struggled, yelling at me.

“Why am I ignoring you?!”

“…What?”

“Why am I there…! Did you leave me alone and give her flowers?”

She kept trying to pull her arm out to see if she couldn’t get rid of it. It seemed like he still wanted to hit me.

Rush was crying next to him as if he was having fun.

I wanted to hug her and calm her down, but I couldn’t because I thought I would run rampant again if I let go of her arm.

I asked.

“…do you want flowers?”

“Of course..!”

The answer came without a single thought.

I moaned, grabbing her wrists with one hand.

Then he reached out his remaining hand and picked up the flower he had taken out earlier to smell. I just put it in Kirsi’s ear.

It went well with her beautiful silver hair.

“…ruler.”

But Kirsi shook his head.

“…what does it mean now, oppa!”

“…I am.”

What was so dissatisfied, she still complained. It looked like he was about to cry.

You can’t congratulate me, but what is this? get upset

“and..! It was a flower we grew together..! How can you easily present it to another woman without saying a word?”

“…you helped, not your flowers.”

“brother!!”

When she comes out like this, it’s not like I have nothing to say. The words I tried to save because I thought it looked stale.

I took a deep breath and asked.

“Kirsi, what are you?”

“What?”

“If you wanted to receive it, would you support me? You could have just told me to be strong, oppa.”

“….ah..”

“All through the tournament, I looked at you whenever you beat your opponent. But, are they both sulky?”

Power drained from Kirsi’s arms. Of course, she will have something to pick up. Putting her hands in front of her, I continued.

“Rather, the people who insulted me cheered me on more.”

Kirsi shuts her mouth and looks down at the floor.

“…..”

“You obviously said you wanted to cheer. Why did you both just stand still? I think we met eyes a few times, didn’t you feel that I was waiting for your support?”

Asena and Kirsi didn’t support me to the point of being sad. Was it only Asena waving her hand a little?

Considering the bond we have built up, this is an insufficient level. if it were me If the twins had been competing in some form of competition, I would have cheered with a burst of neck.

After all, it was only the twins who knew I was fighting at a disadvantage. Only the twins would have known that my victory was never as simple as it seems.

Still, they didn’t support me.

Whether it was because of the face or because they really hated me, I couldn’t get any response from the two who wanted the most support.

“Did you think I would be sad about this?”

It really felt like the ‘Abandoned Adoption Child of the Freisters’ that everyone was talking about behind the scenes.

It was a really unpleasant feeling. So I had the courage to give it to Daisy even more.

“Asena. no?”

When I asked Asena, she turned her head. There seemed to be nothing left for me to say.

Surrounding the tent in silence.

What are you doing on this fine day? After sighing, I let Kirsi dry and sat down on the floor.

He even began to take off his naked armor. Whether they are sad or not is not my part.

“…..”

“…..”

Outside the tent, the unquenchable heat was overflowing. The sounds of laughter and singing, drums and musical instruments are heard. It was the exact opposite of us.

I wanted something like that. I wanted to stop thinking that the twins were incompetent when they came in and said they saw each other again.

I vowed not to look at the two of them, but this seems to be unavoidable. In the end, as much as I loved them, I had a desire for recognition towards her.

It was said that men live on recognition and women live on love. It was nothing like me.

As I roughly took off my gear, Kirsi sneaked up to my right and sat down.

She grabs my collar like a puppy and says.

“…Sorry.”

He seemed to have taken his mind off my words. There are times when you have to scold them like this. Whether it’s too much or too much acceptance, sometimes I don’t seem to understand my feelings.

“done.”

I did not hide my hurt feelings. I shouldn’t be like this, but I keep becoming childish.

Asena also comes and sits quietly next to me.

“…”

She said nothing.

I stopped acting and just stood still.

Kirsey continued.

“…just…because I’m so envious of him…that’s why I’m so angry…”

She can’t even finish sentences properly and makes excuses for me. Now I see tears running down my cheeks.

again. again.

A heart that weakens like a tiger.

Is it because your face is cute?

Is it because you’re my brother?

I just can’t let you cry.

I sighed and hugged her head.

He was easily dragged and fell on my lap, and Kirsi began to weep.

“….okay. stop.”

“I was wrong.. I was all wrong..”

“I know. Good day, let’s stop now.”

I gently patted her on the buttocks and comforted her.

Asena quietly murmured next to her.

“…it was great.”

Belated support is sent.

“…Is that so?”

I smiled.

Asena flinched slightly from the side.

After some disturbing incidents, her true intentions are unknown.

Originally, this behavior was to come closer to me. I can’t fully understand her inner feelings with a dull head, so I did what I felt like it.

He raised his hand and pulled Asena’s opposite cheek toward me.

She dragged her without any resistance and rested her head on my shoulder.

“…Next time, I’ll work harder to cheer for you.”

She said.

“…Please, please. Because I am sad.”

“…..”

Asena gently rubbed her head on my shoulder.

A fragrant scent rises

The peace found again calms the mind. It was as if he had regained the time he had spent in the Freister estate.

After such a long time, we calmly felt the peace that had returned.

“….brother.”

When Kirsi stopped crying and was resting comfortably, Asena called me.

“why.”

“……Then…is this the flower you originally prepared for us?”

“……okay.”

“…”

I could feel the atmosphere that had descended heavily on my skin becoming lighter.

“…and why did you give it to Daisy?”

“…..Somewhat.”

Asena’s small smile caught the corners of her eyes. She pulls her hair and looks at me.

“…Then the most beautiful thing is…”

I also looked at her head-on.

“Oh, that’s real. The beauty was, wow… so beautiful. daisy.”

Asena’s expression hardened terribly at the words that were uttered with admiration.
