Chapter 38.2


    Huh? Vio-chan, you know Gias name?


    Yeah. We exchanged names when I ryed my message to himst time.


    I didnt tell you?


    I never heard of this.


    After making sure Violette wouldnt notice, Yns leg kicked Gias shin. It wasnt painful since he only kicked him lightly, but Gia immediately noticed that Yn was in a bad mood.


    Giamended how Yn thoroughly made sure that Violette wouldnt notice a thing. As expected from Yns best friend, Gia didnt even blink at how he suddenly changed his behaviour. He knew that the brte would never show this side of him to the people he cared more than anyone.


    Decided to pay no mind to Yns kick, Gia said something convenient.


    But its unfair if only I know Princess Violettes name, right?


    First, do something with that nickname.


    Then, Princess?


    Not that.


    Violette found it a little unusual to see Yn experated by theid-back Gia. Usually, Yn always acted like a faithful dog wagging his tail around her. Yet in front of his trusted friend, his tone was considerably more unrestricted. In fact, his behaviour towards her was special. He was generally quite rough with anyone other than her. But inparison, Yn was more open to Gia in his own way.


    Then how should I call her? How about I call her Vio-chan like you?


    Why do you have to go that far


    Do I look like someone wholl call her Violette-sama?


    But thats the norm.


    I dont know that kind of norm!


    As Gia talked, he opened the wrappings of the breads and ate the pile of foods on his trays. He acted like it was nothing special, but seeing someone eating this much in this academy was strange. To be honest, he might be the only one.


    Moreover, he was currently eating in front of two top students of this academy. Even if Gia was also a royalty, Violette wondered if he wasnt a bit nervous since udia and Mirania were still his upperssmen.


    Rather, what does the person herself think? Princess Violette, how should I call you?


    First, whats with that Princess?


    Yn and Gia referred her as Princess like it was natural, but she was only confused. She didnt remember doing something that would make Gia call her as princess. Plus, Violette was the dukes daughter.


    You dont have to mind that. I just used it because I didnt know how to call you when I talked to Yn.


    Is that so?


    Yeah, kind of.


    Yn affirmed, but he was being evasive. Even if Violette demanded exnation from him, she was sure that he wouldnt tell her anything. If he wished to tell her the reason, he would tell her from the beginning. If he was lying, then he wouldnt make her realized something was fishy.


    That means, Gias exnation was roughly true, but something was a bit different. Even so, voicing out that difference was hard. Violette decided to believe so.


    Well People mostly call me as Violette. Only Yn calls me with a nickname.


    Majority of the people called her as Violette or Violette-sama. Even the minority like Mirania called her Miss Violette. It was impossible for her parents to call her with a nickname, and Maryjun who called her the most used Onee-sama.


    In the end, as far as Violette knew, only Yn used a nickname when calling her.


    Im fine with however you call me. Violette or Vio is okay. Please refrain from calling me as a princess, since itll be misleading.


    Calling someone who wasnt the princess of the royal family could create a suspicion on being petty. It might created another misunderstanding since usually a man treated his beloved woman as a princess Even if Gia only used that nickname with Yn, Violette wished to clear any misunderstandings it might cause.


    Hmm Then, Ill call her as Vio-san. Its easy to call, and I also use honorifics. Yn, you dont have anyins, right?


    I haveins, but not in your reasoning


    Youre really narrow-minded.


    Shut up.


    They leaned in to each other and sneakily had a secret talk. Looking at their banter made Violette smile, but she couldnt hear what they were talking about. It wasnt surprising, since Yn intended to do so.


    Yn looked dissatisfied for a while, but he didnt expect Gia to make him happy since the beginning. He decided to just ept the situation and moved his thoughts to Violette.


    The sharp look Yn had for Gia until now suddenly disappeared, changing into the smiling face of faithful dog that Violette always saw. Happy, fun, soft, and cheerful aura floated around Yn. Gia wondered if it was only his imagination that small white flowers seemed to flutter around his friend.


    Ignoring Yns speck of happiness, Gia suddenly returned to his thoughtless self.


    By the way, are these two guys Vio-sans acquaintances?
