Leap Dream (Love From Another World)
MADAM VERO'S
A long day passed, the curtain of sunlight barrier opened and pierced the eyes.
“Nona.. miss.”
“Egh” I opened my eyes reluctantly “Kin?” I lazily sat back, my body gathering my life.
“Nona, the teacher who will teach you today has come”
“Kin? Aren't you still recovering?”
“Thanks to the medicine given miss my condition has now improved”
“Good..” I say still with life not yet full.
“Nona.. miss must immediately prepare Madam Veronica is waiting for you”
“Madam Veronica? Who?”
“He's the teacher who will teach miss”
“What?!” I hurried up from the bed and helped Kin prepare to meet Madam
“Kin, Madam Veronica what kind of person?”
“Hmm, I don't know miss, but what I hear is that she's a pretty hard person to serve.”
‘quite difficult? Hmm it looks like I'm going to make a new fuss again’
We arrived at the room that became Madam's waiting room and the room for me to study. Kin pamit retreat.
A woman who looked elegant by holding a fan covering half of her face looked at me sharply
“Hmm, Madam Veronica?” I tried to open my voice
He just stared intently at me, a look of dislike. “As long as I teach new this time I get brash students.” His words were full of emphasis
“So are you the empress candidate being talked about? which should I teach?”
I nodded, “i.iyaa” his intimidating gaze was more difficult than the demons in the palace.
“Hmm” she closed the fan blocking her face “I can't believe I will be asked for help to teach the prospective empress who on the first day alone is late, there's not even her respect”
‘haa, my mistake is always leveraged’
Madam Veronica still looked at me sharply, as if she wanted something from me.
“You know a empress should be able to arrange, especially set her own time! How can you be chosen to be the empress candidate of this kingdom.”
‘Sial! I'm late for a longing night!’
“I've done something wrong to make Madam Veronica wait, I'm sorry”. The first thing to do is to apologize for the delay. No matter what your reason for being stuck or a rainstorm, it can't cover up the fact that you're late, so apologize first.
Madam Veronica lowered her sharp gaze as if she had already gotten what she wanted. “Good it turns out you know how to apologize” Look one of the three magic words works.
Madam Veronica moved from her seat looking at me from head to toe “Hmm, I heard you were once a servant, how can you now be a future empress? A lowly servant like you who is not clear of the origin of his”
“Before I did not know Madam Veronica and now Madam speaks as if she already knows me?”
Mata intimidates her from again “You didn't duck when you talked to me?”
“What am I looking down on talking to Madam who wears shoes taller than me? Isn't it more polite to talk while looking into the eyes of the other person?”
Madam Veronica smiled faintly “I don't know what makes Her Majesty prefer you whose unclear origin compared to Maura who has been by her side for a long time and always be polite”
‘Maura? Gentlemanly? Just be right!’
“What Madam Veronica knows Forestland?” a word I haven't said for a long time because it's just my writing
“Forestland?” beonya. ‘of course she doesn't know the island I'm coral’
“Yeah, I'm from sana”
“I travel a lot out of this empire, but have never heard that name”
“Hmm, it's probably because Madam played less far.”
“What you said!” he said annoyed. ‘not bad also toying with a guru’
“Madam Veronica when will we start learning?” I just ignored it by changing the topic
“Alright we will start from improving your attitude.and call me Madam Vero”.
‘chi! why have attitude? Don't I need a teacher to teach me to write and read?’
“Madam, can't we just go straight to the material?”
“No! An empress should pay attention to her attitude, and you when it comes do not give greetings.” Push back
‘Gosh I totally forgot to give him salam’
“Hmm, didn't the emperor tell you to teach me to read and write?”
“What? Are you insulting me? I was asked by Your Majesty to teach you to be a good empress! Not teaching reading and writing to young children!”
‘Sial! Sen you wrongly brought teacher!’
“It seems there was a mistake Madam. I asked the emperor to find a teacher to teach me to read and write.”
“WHAT?!! How could a future empress not be able to write even read?” it seems Madam Veronica really doesn't know about this.
“I guessed it, a girl whose origins are unclear could not possibly have any advantages even she could not read and write. I will meet the emperor to ask to reconsider his choice.” Madam muttered as if there was no me nearby. ‘haa I was not seen in her eyes’
“How can you live without knowing how to read and write?” cynical look
“Who said I don't know how to read and write? I know, it's just that the writing in my place and in this kingdom is so different!”
“What do you mean? As long as I travel all the writings from one kingdom and another sama”
‘eh, is it time for me to have one more point?’
“What Madam can read and write ancient writings?” ask me on target. Madam was silent to my question. Of course in this world few people understand ancient writing.
“In my former residence, we speak and write using the ancient language”
‘see.. I'm one level above you not”
“What? Do you understand the ancient language?”
I nodded of course with a feeling of pride as his gaze of intimacy began to diminish.
Madam walked towards the large map hanging as a decoration on the wall with the frame adorning its edges. “Where is the Forestland you live in?” ask her while looking towards the hanging map
‘Of course in my delusion Madam.’
“Why did Madam ask?”
“Of course to visit it.” Her words steady
“egh?” I rack my brain to give you a reason. “It's better to forget Madam's wish.”
“Why?”
“Because my place of origin can not be found easily even can not be visited at will”, I gave an excuse
“What? How can?”
“Hmm, to preserve the ancient heritage” replied me origin. ‘I was even amazed with my mouth that could string up the reason speaking smoothly without thinking lengthen’
“And you?”
“I?” my bean. ‘Ah shit! Indirectly I established myself as an ancient legacy!’
“Of course I ran away! Because I want to see the outside world. And anyone who comes out of the place I used to be can't go home again”
Madam Vero looked at me in disbelief and sighed “Haa, I understand your feelings.” she said moving off the map as if she had given up on her wishes.
“Alright we will start from the bottom.” he said behaving like a sincere teacher teaching his students regardless of caste.
