Asha and Aelfraed did not speak at all during the walk towards the dining hall, upon entering the dining room, Asha's parents looked very surprised and stared with sparkling gazes at her daughter who walked the two of them into the dining room with the young duke, both of whom looked so harmonious.
Because walking together but in Asha's heart there was absolutely no calmness as she did not want to get involved with the young duke who would someday kill herself.
"Young Miss Edelstein, do you like our young master? If you like how about you get engaged?" said Aelfraed's assistant with a glittering gaze and hoped towards Asha
Asha was naturally bewildered wanting to respond to the person in front of her with what expression but at this moment she was shocked.
"I do not hate or have any liking to young master Aelfraed and also young master Aelfraed seems to have a heart for someone to love,"
"So, I'm not interested in getting engaged to her," Asha said with a gentle and innocent child-like smile, but his mature words at his current age made everyone around him look at him in surprise
After the remark from Asha, the man in front of her smiling little looked at her and breakfast continued with a dull talk for Asha. After breakfast Asha decides to go to the park to enjoy her time alone, but she meets the person she least wants to meet. Although Asha turned around and walked away from him, the man continued to follow him until Asha decided to surrender to the man and rest in a gazebo nearby.
"Miss Edelstein, it seems you deliberately avoided me,"
"When you see I'm behind you but you keep walking without looking back and the sooner I catch up with you the faster I walk,"
"Seeing that you really don't like me, I'm very sad" Aelfraed said with a sad face like a victim making Asha feel guilty about the person in front of her
"I didn't mean to avoid you, just that I didn't see you behind me,"
"Why are you in Mr Aelfraed's garden anyway?" asha said coldly trying like an adult facing a child
"I want to spend more time with Miss Edelstein because we are friends right now, right? And I'm also interested in what you said at breakfast," aelfraed said with a grin and a sharp gaze towards Asha made Asha think that she should take good care of her words, so as not to origin ceplos until asked by a man who looks meticulous in front of him.
"It's possible but I don't think of you as a friend because you're basically a guest, I said because I didn't want to marry the person I love,"
"I just feel like love is a heart that needs to be connected to each other," asha said with a cold gaze without looking at Aelfraed who was somehow currently showing what kind of expression to Asha who spoke
There was a sudden silence between Aelfraed and Asha, because according to Asha there was no more talk she wanted to talk about or hear about, she decided to leave the place.
"Did he remember the incident until now he changed?"
After the conversation had reached the time of dinner there was no talk between the two people, Asha also seemed to be unconcerned with Aelfraed staring at her continuously.
Until Asha slept, and saw a dream in which the figure of a man and a woman kneeling before him begged for love and affection for the man.
"Asha, I've told you many times that your feelings are just an obsession not love,"
"If you still insist that it is love then die for me,"
The figure of the woman died with her head cut off and rolled down to the man's feet with a smile. Asha's current feeling was painful and tight to shreds, he realized the male figure was Aelfraed who would kill him in the future but why did he feel pain and as if he had been in the position of the woman.
Was he in his first life or in his second life Asha? But he only remembered that he had been reincarnated five times with five different lives and only his last memory was actually in his head at this time. Asha did not know why she was acting so ill when she saw the cold male figure, not long after that she woke up with tears and a handkerchief by her side.
Asha did not know who the figure of the person who cared so much about him, and like looking after himself in the night, but he felt a little happy if the man was so good every time he slept and gave a gift to him.
Since the meeting with the guests from the southern Duke, Aelfraed always came to the mansion and played with Asha, although Asha did not respond to the man and only spoke when asked. Every night, he gets a gift that he doesn't know who sent it, but he's sure he cares about it. Both Asha's parents were always worried about her daughter being cold and even suddenly asking for learning to use a sword at such a young age, until many years later Asha was fifteen years old and grew up beautifully.
Many of the men who sent the engagement invitation letter to Asha and all of them were rejected by Asha not least the southern Duke's family who had sent the engagement letter repeatedly and repeatedly Asha tore it up known by his mother who saw his daughter's bad behavior.
"Asha, you've got to get engaged so you've got to get one of the engagement letters,"
"Let alone the southern Duke's family to file several times and you've been tearing it up repeatedly right?" said the mother with a worried look to her daughter who was not interested in engagement or marriage at all
"I have no interest in getting engaged to any mother besides father also does not forbid me not to want to get married" Asha said with a cold gaze while inserting a paper that she burned into the fireplace but pulled by the mother
"Well, I'm not going to ban you,"
"But bring the man you want to be engaged to you, otherwise you'll choose an engagement for yourself,"
