Just then, a button from my chest popped and propelled itself from my chest to Garett's forehead and rendered him unconscious.

"Holy Magnolia!" Maura yelled.

I quickly covered myself afterwards.

Maura went to get me something, while I stayed with the unconscious Garett and felt very guilty.

I thought that I might as well rest his head on my lap and have him laying on the floor. I took off his glasses and rested them to the side.

Garett is here too...

I was supposed to meet Garett last year, but it did not happen until now.

After my marriage with Prince Erik in my first life, I heard Garett went up north and then I never saw him again...

"I am back," Maura said.

She helped me put on a bandeau top under my uniform.

"So much better," I said with a deep breath.

"It's amazing how you know Garrett."

"...I have never met him before," I replied.

"Really? It did not look that way. I will go get a wet towel," Maura said as she hurried off.

Garett started showing signs that he was waking up.

His beautiful emerald green eyes peeked out from under his eyelids.

"Are you alright, Garett?" I asked in a small voice.

"...A fairy..."

I chuckled softly. He must still be in a daze.

"I am not a fairy," I said.

I suppose he broke out of his daze soon afterwards because his face turned into a deep red shade. He began scrambling to find his glasses and quickly scooted towards the book shelves.

"Y-Y-Y-You..."

"You could have rested on my lap a bit longer?" I said as I gestured him back to my lap by patting my lap.

"N-No, thank you!"

Ah, these cousins are really similar in reactions or is it just boys of their age are like this. Garett was known as a cold beauty to those who knew what he look like underneath his glasses. Seeing Garett act as if he is a child is refreshing. Far from cold beauty, he is just a cute child like this.

It almost makes me want to bully him...

Maura came back with a soaked handkerchief.

"Great! You are back now, Garett," Maura said. "Let me introduce our newest member, Arielle."

"It is a pleasure to meet you, Garett..."

"Pleasure to meet you too..."

He had avoided looking into my eyes.

The red mark left by my button showed itself through his bangs. I rubbed his head slightly with my fingers.

"Does it still hurt?" I asked him.

"N-No," he answered with a flushed face. He got up abruptly. "I am calling it an early day today."

"Did I do something to upset him?" I asked Maura.

Other than the fact I knocked him unconscious...

"He is like that with everyone."

His personality has not changed even in this life...
