"What the fuck? What's that supposed?"

Agatha guessed a no-no.

Steven didn't answer. The man faced his body firmly towards the statue of the god that was hit by the sunlight from the window. He closed his eyes for a moment and started talking. "Honey, promise me you won't be engaged or married to another man for another three years." Steven grabbed Agatha's hand and placed it on the chest of his field.

"Huh? Steve listen, I know you're a little weird, but what are you doing all this for?" Agatha asked the question again. He did not understand why the man in front of him wanted him to take an appointment at a temple. Is it that important to have to do it in front of a god statue?

"Please promise." Steven did not stop releasing fingers Agatah actually he was getting tighter grasping her.

"No, before you explain why."

Suddenly silent atmosphere. Steven's worried. The man recalled the incident at the palace when he was with Duke Carrol. The Duke not only gave conditions but also gave a warning so that Steven did not divulge about the proposal to Agatha. As a man, of course Steven has no right to violate the warning. Somehow Duke was happy to torture his feelings.

"Why don't you understand either. What a hard time to make an appointment." Steven took off Agatha's fingers and turned to the girl's shoulders. He gripped the shoulder of the blue-sliced girl firmly. "promise!" Lontarannya later.

Agatha was silent. Indicates he does not intend to take the promise as Steven requested. Not because they do not want to but can not, because it is likely that in the next three years there will be an official engagement with Lucius.

"Why are you quiet?" Ask. The man slipped his head on Agatha's shoulder. "Darling you're really driving me crazy." Her muttering.

"Steve, what exactly is it about you?"

"I'm going to war. It will likely take a lot of time."Floating light. Makes Agatha mistake and think that Steven is fighting for the region.

"Well then, I'll promise you that I won't be engaged or married for another three years...."He hung his sentence. Steven immediately got up and looked at the girl fixedly, curious about the next sentence. "....but don't get me wrong when I'm married if you don't show up for three years." Reciprocity. Agatha thought maybe Steven wanted to be one of the guests at her wedding later.

"You promised too. You stubborn girl." The man's chirps were accompanied by a gentle swipe.

They chatted like a close friend. Until unknowingly, the sun began to sink in the western horizon. Exhibits an orange glow that penetrates through a large transparent window there.

"Darling, I'll drive you home."

Agatha just nodded. They soon returned without realizing that a little girl with a golden eye bead was watching everything. Watching from the beginning to the end what they do. Only, he could not hear the conversation of the two because they were quite far away.

"If Lord Lucius so much liked Miss Agatha. Then I'll be him. I'll imitate Miss Agatha. Wearing the same clothes, the same attitude, the same jewelry." Mumbled. He was in the temple only intending to erase his sorrow due to the insults of the nobles. But it was unexpected that he even witnessed Miss Agatha and Mr. Steven.

"God, I will take this decoration together with lord Lucius one day. Please take good care." He said by joining hands and praying fervently.

Note: After this there will be a time skip.

Three years later,

The luxurious residence dominated by red chocolate with a towering gate was no longer the same. Silence is in every corner of the room. No more children who fight and reciprocate ridicule.Small parties are not often held. Not infrequently they feel a gust of wind that is so real and a ticking clockwork that seems to echo.

Now everyone is focused on their own business. The maids swept, cleaned the windows, gardening, and much more. While the waiter men, take care of the stables and some become cooks in the kitchen.

They had completely lost their cheer since their first lady had officially married and were brought to live in the residence of Duke Max. While their second young master chose to practice magic in the central tower since two years ago. Only the third young lady remains. The miss was just sitting in the residence and continuously learning guided by the teacher.

"It's good that you caught everything I said so quickly." Praise the random silver-haired man. He was about to stroke the head of the girl in front of him. However, his hand was immediately restrained by the girl. He's a little disappointed.

Agatha smiled. "Sorry Mr. Ray, I'm no longer a fourteen-year-old little girl. Some people even think I'm a Lady." Unmistakably.

"Ha ha ha alright." Raymond laughed awkwardly. He does not want to discuss this issue further. So he decided to end the class. "Alright, today is enough here and tomorrow is a holiday." He said while reminding. After saying that, Raymond rushed out of the library and said his farewell.

Agatha was the same, and she came out of the library of the beggar. He then walked towards his room. After a while, he finally reached the room. Agatha immediately laid her body on the bed surrounded by handwork.

Door knocked. Agatha cleared her throat to allow the man in. "Miss, there's a letter for you." Lucy reports with two plain white envelopes in her hand. Carefully he approached the lady who was still limp in the bed.

Agatha who realized her loyal servant had been by the side, immediately woke up from the position. She tidied up her dress and received a letter from Lucy.

"There's two of these?" Agatha astonished. There is usually only one letter each week. Of course it's a letter from Steven who keeps sending the news. This time, there were two letters. Agatha read the name of the sender. A smile was etched on his thin lips.

Without further ado Agatha read the letter carefully. The first letter was from Steven. The man said he was alive and reminded Agatha of her promise three years ago. Steven also said that he would soon be back from the war in a moment.

Second letter from Lucius. The man invited himself to a restaurant near the town hall. Of course Agatha was so happy, because all this time, she was bored just by dwelling on the thick books Raymond gave her.

"Lucy, get me some warm water and a dress that fits for a date."

"None right." Lucy just nodded.
