    <h4>59: Unfamiliar Life</h4>


    ――― *POOF*


    I was hitting my pillow.


    I was disappointed that I was scared of strangers.


    I’ve never been frozen before even when I went to the ball, nor when I met His Highness Ludens or even when Roberto-sama red at me.


    Even if I had to look down, I always did what I had to do.


    It was probably because I told Dick-san how I really felt in Coolden. I’ve be weak.


    I had to behave like a noble here at the Royal Pce.


    I didn’t need to be honest to my feelings.


    “Well, I’m Lady Ayesha-marie, who was driven out of the Thousand House, so this much is good enough. I behaved appropriately after I went into the dining hall.”


    I abandon my thoughts early when I sunk into the small and hardish bed.


    <i>I’m wearing my noble mask, so next time will be fine. It’ll be fine. </i> I told myself.


    <strong>?</strong><strong>?</strong><strong>?</strong><strong>?</strong><strong>?</strong><strong>?</strong><strong>?</strong>


    I woke up early, got dressed and left my room.


    It was a bit early, but I headed for breakfast.


    I wore the eggnt coloured secretary uniform.


    I thought it was harder for people to know who I was if I wore the eggnt coloured long dress rather than in clothes. There were a few people here fromst night.


    I received breakfast and sat at the corner in a vacant seat.


    “It’s tasteless...”


    It was a dining hall in the Royal Pce, but the food wasn’t satisfying. I thought the same thingst night too. I stopped my hand with the spoon in it. I turned my head and looked around while taking the meal in.


    The colours were beautiful, the bread was soft and the soup wasn’t greasy at all. It was warm.


    <i>Don’tin.</i>


    <i>I have to be thankful</i>


    <i>But, what is it? It’s not good enough.</i>


    I thought as I finished the meal. I tied my hair up, so that it was easier to change and headed towards said room.


    It took time to disguise myself after all.


    I remembered where to go. I wouldn’t recklessly ask for directions just because I forgot.


    I entered the room and looked at the mirror.


    I divided my golden hair and braided it. I put them onto the other side of my head so that it wouldn’t have much volume. I fastened them with pins. It took a lot of time, but I somehow managed. I wore the ck wig.


    I lightly tapped powder onto my face, approached the mirror and drew my eyeliner. My hands were trembling, but I think I’m quite good at drawing it now. I put on some reddish plum lipstick and Ann’s face was ready. My look would beplete with the white gloves.


    I went through the hidden passageway that I was taught.


    Because I was told not to write it on paper, I wrote it on the ground and erased it numerous times so I could memorise it. Desperately. <i>I’m so great for remembering it from just going through twice. </i>I have a lot of guts right now.


    My heart wouldn’t stop throbbing as I walked through the dark passageway alone. <i>I don’t think it’s normal to go through this passageway without light. I wonder if there’s something that would trouble them if I could see here. Well, I was fine in the dark since I didn’t use light at night in the Thousand House estate to save money.</i>


    “Is it okay for me to know this passage?” I asked, and I was told that I didn’t have any connections outside of the Royal Pce so it was fine. It was used as a shortcut and royalty used it to get away from people.


    I couldn’t help but sigh when I got out into the bright corridor.


    I looked around, mindful of my surroundings and walked towards the ‘Royal Capital’s Public Order Constion Room’ (I named it myself).


    I briskly walked without taking a break. I bowed whenever I passed people.


    <i>Seems like I remember the way correctly.</i>


    I arrived safely at the Royal Capital’s Public Order Constion Room and began working.


    <strong>?</strong><strong>?</strong><strong>?</strong><strong>?</strong><strong>?</strong><strong>?</strong><strong>?</strong>


    I spent my days quietly in the past week.


    My work started with wiping the desks in the Royal Capital’s Public Order Constion Room. Then, I opened the windows and let the fresh air in.


    I made a copy of His Highness Luden’s memo and sorted the documents. Then, His Highness Ludens and the others came. I made tea, went to my desk and kept working.


    They didn’t tell me what to do. It was just like when I worked for father and brother.


    “I’m going to lunch.”


    His Highness Ludens and hisrades haven’te yet. I said that to the knight at the door and headed towards the dining hall.


    I remembered the minimalyout of the Royal Pce by walking around with Cafule-san. At the beginning, I had lunch in my room, but I got bored of being in my room day after day. But, since yesterday I started going to the dining hall where the knights and guards were because I finally remembered theyout of the pce. The government residence’s dining hall was a little far and it took time tomute there.


    I never had any emotion on my face whenever I walked through the Royal Pce, but my face would loosen whenever I got to the inner garden.


    I quickly finished eating in the dining hall with the knights and sat down on a handkerchief under an unpopr Zelkova tree.


    I took out the small apple from my pocket which I’d put in there at breakfast, rub it on my skirt and bite into it.


    “Ann is tired. Am I being helpful?”


    I wasn’t talking to anyone, my voice just came out.


    I actually wanted to lie down here, but I couldn’t as a nobledy. I probably shouldn’t be sitting under the shade like this either.


    But I want people to overlook this since I was only a simple officedy while I wore this eggnt coloured dress.


    When I finished eating the apple, I heard a rustling and saw threedies.


    “Oh my, she’s really here.”


    “Right? I saw her heading towards here.”


    “She has really bad manners, doesn’t she?”


    I stood up and bowed a noble bow.


    <i>Have my enemies appeared atst?</i>
