Miré su espalda mientras se alejaba... Yo realmente desearía saber su nombre. Rina apareció frente a mí con la cara llena de preocuparse. Nunca antes la había visto tan asustada.

"¿Estás bien?" —preguntó Rina.

—Sí... ¿Quién es él? —dije con un tono intrigado. mirar.

-¿Quién?

—Él. —señalé la espalda del niño. —El único que me salvó.

—¿Fue él quien la salvó? —preguntó sorprendido—. Si no me equivoco, es el caballero Keneth Moneti... Tiene 17 años, es un caballero, dicen que a pesar de su edad es talentoso, es un joven prodigio de la espada.

—Kenneth Moneti... ¿Dónde me enteré de ¿él?... ¡¿Kenneth Moneti?! —Me sorprendió recordar a ese personaje.

No puede ser, después de una guerra se convertirá en un general del ejército, y se le otorgará el título de duque por sus logros y amistad con el Rey... Pero aparece hasta el final, cuando Elise escapa Desde la cárcel, la atrapa y la quema en la hoguera porque es una bruja. ¿Por qué debutó tan pronto? Todavía no es el momento de que aparezca... Es todo por las palomitas de maíz.

—¿Estás seguro de que es él? —pregunté de nuevo.

—No puedo confirmarlo con solo mirar su pero ese joven ciertamente se parece a él.

—Espero que no sea él... Será mejor que vayamos a buscarlo unas palomitas de maíz.

Fuimos al stand y compré unos palomitas de maíz de tamaño mediano. Me metí uno en la boca, pero pude ver un problema muy serio. Error, un error por el que las palomitas de maíz aún no eran muy famosas.

—Disculpe, señor... —llamé a la tienda del vendedor. Atención—. Sabrían mejor si le agregaras sal y mantequilla.

"Lo intentaré, gracias por el consejo" —dijo el vendedor pensativo—.

Con palomitas de maíz en mis manos entré a la tienda, No pensé que fuera tan grande por dentro. Había muchos vestidos bonitos, pero yo estaba solo voy a comprar uno. Entre los del medio, casi escondidos, había uno que me llamó la atención.

Era de color azul hielo con pequeños diamantes en la parte superior y en capas debajo, me gusta porque combina con mis ojos, que son grandes y azul con una especie de resplandor natural.

—Rina... —I called her.

—Yes, miss?

“I want that one,” I pointed. “Let’s buy it.”

I called the saleswoman and asked for the dress, since it was made of new fabric and had diamond decorations, it was going to be expensive, but my monthly budget allowed me to buy it, although in the end I ran out of money and we returned to the mansion.

When we returned, my father was waiting for us at the door. I hurriedly got out of the carriage and approached my father.

—How long have you been here?... Have you been waiting for me? —I asked.

—Don't think about ridiculous things, I was a little tired and I was just taking a break, that's all. —He replied in a cold tone. —I thought I heard that you almost had an accident. Be careful next time. —He added.

Is it my imagination or was he worried about me?

—Relax, I'm fine. —I hugged him and walked away before he could push me—. You said you were feeling tired? Maybe I should give you a massage. —I smiled.

—No thanks, better go and fix that old garden... —He said indifferently.

-Oh really?!

That means you are giving permission to enter the forbidden garden... I can't believe it.

—Thank you, Father! —I hugged him, and like every time, after a few seconds he pushed me away from him.

—I'm just doing it so you don't bother me so much and you have something to spend your time on—. After saying that, he turned around and went back inside the mansion.

I laughed. I looked back and saw Rina laughing too while holding the bag with my dress. I walked over to her and snatched the bag from her.

“I should carry this,” I said with a smile. “I’ll take it to my closet, please bring some meat for Evan.”

"I'll go immediately," he nodded.

We walked in together and split up as she headed to the kitchen. I walked to my room and when I entered I saw Evan lying on the bottom right corner of the bed. I headed to the closet, it's like another room full of mannequins with dresses, shelves of shoes and jewelry. A noblewoman's closet is quite a luxury, most of them are gifts from my father when he has to go somewhere with me.

I was a little tired from today and I lay down on the bed, although I accidentally woke up Evan.

“Are you back already?” he asked as he stretched. “I’m hungry!”

—Relax, I already told Rina. Anything else?

—Just one question. This morning I found a necklace under my pillow and it looked old so I was wondering why you hadn't put it away or thrown it away.

—Ah, that necklace, it's kind of weird, if I don't sleep with it on I have nightmares.

—Nightmares?

—Yes, about painful memories from another girl's past and mine. Also, sometimes a scene where I get burned... I guess the necklace wants to tell me that if I reveal my powers I can be burned, although maybe it's something psychological.

—It's not that, it has an aura, I guess I feel it because I'm a cat, but it's like it's cursed, like a person is inside it crying, it's something strange... How did you get it?

—I don't know, they sent it to me.

—Has anything strange happened since you used it?

—Yes... Too much.

—Do you have any idea who gave it to you?

—Something, it's a bit of a crazy idea, but I'd rather not touch on that subject. —I said nervously. —Ah! The garden is mine now. Should I start styling it?

—Of course! Even if you don't expect my help, I'm useless in this body...

—Don't worry, I'll ask the employees for help, you keep sleeping or eating.

—You make my situation worse... As my owner you should give me love... I want to be useful.

“Okay.” I pick up the cat and cuddle it in my arms like a baby. “Just by being by my side and absorbing the excess magic, you’re quite useful.” I smile. “I’m going to go change into something lighter and older, I’m going to get dirty today.”

After changing my clothes, I went to the garden and asked all the servants I saw on the way for help. After a few minutes, they all had gardening tools with them.

—Thank you for helping me! —I said in front of everyone—. I couldn't do this without your help, this is a gift my mother left us and we didn't take proper care of it, but now we're going to make it pretty.

Everyone applauded and got to work, cutting down brush and filling in holes. Occasionally, insects would appear and they would be cruelly killed with the sole of a shoe. But leaving that aside, we were able to clear the land in four hours, leaving only the trees intact.

When I finished, Rina came into the garden to look for me.

—Rina, you're just in time! —I said happily—. I want you to help me get these plants as soon as possible please. —I gave her a list of plants and herbs that could be useful for future potions and some ornaments to make it look nice—. Then take some paper and paints to my room to create a drawing of how I would like it to look.

—As you wish... Ah, Mrs. Adelaida wants to talk to you.

-Where is?

—In the main garden, she is a little upset right now so be careful.

I walked to the main garden, Rina was escorting me, when we arrived I told Rina to wait for me at the entrance and I continued.

All the flowers were red, there were different species or shades, but all red.

I stood in front of a rose and looked at it. Just one color is boring. Wouldn't a yellow rose be more striking among so many red ones? Thinking about it, I was surprised at how the flower changed color.

—Huh? Ah, so that's what you mean when you say that magic can be used unconsciously because of my feelings... —I said quietly to myself—. Ah, I must hurry!

I continued walking towards the kiosk while thinking about my most recent achievement, using magic without saying the spell, if I practice more I will use it well at my will without saying a word, I miss my smartphone from the year that I saved up for, but if I use magic I will be able to kill time, I really miss the technology of the earth.

I walked up the steps to the kiosk and there I met Adelaida's murderous gaze, she was holding a cup of tea. I approached her with a smile and sat down in front of her.

—¿Y para qué me necesitas? —pregunté.

—¡¿Estás loco?!

—Un poco, pero no creo que me llamara para hablar de mi falta de cordura... ¿De qué quiere hablarme?

—¿Cómo te atreves a convencer a tu padre de que tome ¡¿Cuidar de ese jardín?! ¿No sabes que se siente mal cada vez que se acuerda ¡¿Esa mujer?! —dijo enojada, refiriéndose a mi madre.

—Si es así es porque todavía extraña a mi madre, creo que es porque no hiciste un buen trabajo. —dije con calma mientras me llevo una taza a la boca—. No obligué a mi padre, lo hizo porque confía en mí para salir bien de ese lugar, además si hay visitas, No puedo ver un área tan descuidada, era lógico que me la regalara. —Yo dijo y luego bebí un poco de té.

—¡Mocoso...! ¿Sabes cuánto tiempo me llevó? para obtener permiso para poner un solo color de flores?!

—Dos años, ¿verdad? Ja, solo duré unos pocos semanas... —me reí—. Esa es la diferencia entre la hija de su gran el amor y su amante, oh no, esposa...

—La única razón es que lo molestas tanto que quiere mantenerte ocupada para que no te acerques a él. ¿Por qué no ¿Te gusta antes, cuando te quedabas callado y escondías? Ahora incluso respondes... Hacer Quieres matar a tu padre, ¿es por eso que lo molestas?

—¿Cómo lo mataría?

—Te llamas su hija y no ¿Sabe que tiene una afección cardíaca?
