It was the first time I had a heartyugh like that. I really felt refreshed afterughing like that.


    In the past, i always wanted to be the perfect nobledy. so i always acted with dignity as the higher nobledy. I always smiled silently ording to noble etiquettes and manners. only when i lived a modern life did i realize that nothing is more important then you own happiness andfortability.


    "Wow! so, you canugh like that too" he asked looking at me amused, i was not sure whether it was aplement ofment so i stayed silent


    "…"


    I changed my expressions again as i still have to be angry with hi when he stared at me with his eyes wide, of course, he would think thatughing like that was brazen.


    He mumbled something then said, clearing his throat, "Abigail!"


    "Yes, what is it?"


    "As we have apologized to each other, I think we have reconciled with each other, right?"


    "So what?"


    I smiled at him when he said it casually after insulting me so many times.


    "Then can we start practicing together again?" he asked as if the matter never even happened.


    "Well, I don''t need that anymore.'''' I said, though I knew that sir Seymour would only teach me for a week. I would find another wielder of a sword after that. This way I would be able to learn many new secret techniques.


    "why, are you giving up? Are you quitting fencing aftering this far and achieving so much?"


    "I never said that." I replied calmly to him when he asked with a re, his anger needed to be subsided.


    After taking a deep breath, he asked again, "Then, why are you not going toe for training? Are you still angry?"


    "No, what I mean is I don''t have to practice with you any more."


    "What are you talking about?"


    "Sir Seymour decided to coach me. I just hope I won''t be a burden to him as he is busy with a lot of things already."


    "Sir Seymour? Are you talking about your fathers aide?" He said with a frown, adding, "how would he get time daily, it is something difficult and even your father would suffer because of it. Are you not embarrassed at all?"


    I was silent, too, but shortly afterwards, he said with a frown, scratching his head, "Well, it doesn''t matter. As your father ordered me to coach you, I can''t leave it in midway. So, let''s do it like this. You can learn from sir Seymour if you want. Instead, I wille over there."


    "Are you going toe here?"


    "Yes. I would like to see how good that knight''s fencing skills are, and if I feel I need to learn from him, I would like to learn while watching him."


    "… "


    "Okay, since the matter is solved, i shall leave."


    I sighed at his bossing nature. He should learn how to behave himself, but it was hopeless for me to expect that. When he hade here I thought that he would apologise to me too and behave in a better way.


    "Don''t you think you are interfering a lot. This is a separate part of the training ground. And you would be busy by training others too ``I replied as I felt i should not ept his every wish that easily.


    "I am not training you as you want mydy. I am trying to learn more for which your father would be proud of me." he said nonchntly and left.


    ''Did he even know that my father was looking at him as my prospective life partner so that he could keep me with him for the lifetime.'' I just shook my head and left for theke area. Nicks must be waiting for me.


    When I reached thekeside garden, Nics was throwing stones in theke with a bored expression. There was a warm bright nked wasid on the ground with a lot of snacks over it. There was his sketching book at the side too.


    I smiled at the detailed preparations he had done for me.


    The sunlight shining through the trees was dazzling. Chirp, chirp! Birds were chirping on the side, and the smell of the delicious meal was filling my nostrils.


    I heard birds chirping here and there. My hair was scattered by the refreshing wind blowing through the windows. When I looked down, breathing in fresh air, I saw his green eyes smiling at me. It looked like this pic was going to be good and we are going to have a good bonding time together.


    "Good morning Nicks!"


    "Good morning, Abi!"


    "You seem to feel good somehow. Did you have a good dream?"


    "No, I am happy looking at the preparations you have done. Are you waiting from a long time?'''' I asked as I sat there, giggling to myself.


    "No, mydy. I came here just a while ago" he said, and i looked at the mounds of the pebbles at the side.


    "So, what have you nned for us today?" I asked as he passed me a te of snacks.


    I took a small piece of creampuff and started eating it. The cream melted in my mouth making me smile and he chuckled.


    "You still eat like a kid" he said as he cleaned my face but i just shrugged, "brother, this is so yummy. I just love it ``I said with a satisfied smile and he chuckled again.


    "Then go ahead and eat more. Then we would justy here in the nket and y the game of clouds."


    "Game of clouds?" I was confused, was there a game like that?!


    He looked at me and blinked, "did you forget we used to y this game whenever we came here with mother. Until that rascal came and took you away, or did you forget because.." he stopped mid way as he looked at me with a guilty expression though i didn''t get a single word what he was saying.


    "Brother, what are you talking about?" I asked with a frown, but he shook his head.


    "Come, let me teach you the game." he said holding my hand, as he gently pulled me on the nket. We both sat there holding the pillows.


    "Now look at the sky." he said very seriously as if he was asking me to take the aim of the target.


    "Can you see that cloud that looks like an eagle.. And that.. It looks like a cupcake ``I giggled as he described the clouds as various imaginary things.


    "Come now, you try." He encouraged me and I nodded as I looked at the sky. "That cloud look like a sword brother"
