Fostering the Male Lead - Chapter 105
‘Even if it’s a joke, I’m annoyed, but if he’s flirting with me, I won’t let it go.’
He will have to face death for the crime of playing with a girl’s heart. I roughly took off my cloak and threw it at Sihael.
“Cover your bottom with it. We can’t have a proper conversation like this.”
“Rosetta, wait, wait!”
Sihael, who received the flying cloak, looked at my body and jumped up and ran. I was attacked unexpectedly, and I screamed in amazement.
“Argh! Don’t come!”
“I won’t so you wear it!”
The cloak thrown by Sihael hit me in the head. My body staggered from the force of the violently flying ball of cloth. Embarrassed, Sihael stuttered, “You, don’t you ever take off that cloak. Make sure to keep wearing it.”
“No! Your Highness must wear it!”
Our fight, in which we kept arguing and shouting out reasons why the other person should wear the cloak, ended unexpectedly in a bland way. Sihael, who had lost his will to fight after being hit on the back by me, calmly accepted the cloak. I let out a sigh of relief only after confirming that Sihael was wearing a cape around his waist.
‘Now I feel a little better.’
Now that I could see Sihael comfortably, I folded my arms with a satisfied face. But Sihael kept looking away because he was embarrassed to see me. His reddened ears were very impressive.
‘Well, I guess it’s okay for him to show off his body, but it’s embarrassing to watch other’s.’
Anyone who sees me will also think that I am naked. There was quite a bit of skin exposure, but unlike Sihael, who was stark naked in the beginning, I was wearing everything needed.
I was even wearing a sleeveless chemise, so there was no need to be awkward.
‘By the way, the grandfather also made a fire.’
I thanked him in my heart, looking at the bonfire that had been extinguished.
“Your Highness, how long will you be like that? Let’s get out of here.”
I was amazed by the shy side of Sihael, but we couldn’t stay here forever. Sihael, who was rubbing his flushed cheek, was able to meet my eyes after a long time.
The shyness that remained in Sihael’s eyes disappeared like smoke, taking on a serious light.
“Rosetta, don’t do that next time.”
Did he find his memories before he lost his reason?
His gaze lingered on my left arm. I touched my previously injured arm.
“Do you remember?”
“Yes, I remember I bit you here. But where did the wound go?”
“I made a wish to the guardian deity of this mountain and he healed me.”
It was too long to tell from the beginning, so I explained only the key points, but as expected, Sihael did not understand what I was saying.
But he stopped asking as if the method of treatment was not important.
“Anyway it doesn’t hurt, right?”
“Yes, I’m fine.”
Sihael breathed a sigh of relief and grabbed my hand as he stretched his arm forward.
“Thank god.”
“Were you surprised?”
A desperate voice flowed from Sihael, who buried his face in my hands and nodded.
“Rosetta, next time this happens, just leave me alone.”
“What? What are you talking about? If I had left you alone, you might have died.”
“I won’t die, so don’t ever feed me your blood.”
What’s with this confidence? He was really bleeding badly.
“But…”
“Don’t do it if I tell you not to. I’m saying this for you.”
The voice that cut me off firmly was cold. I was taken aback by the cold voice I heard for the first time and shut my mouth.
I shook his hand in a fit of anger.
“Then why did you save me? You should have just let me fall.”
“You and I are different.”
“What’s the difference?! What is the difference between you saving me by throwing your body and me saving you by using my body?!”
My eyes burned with intense emotion. Why was he rebuking me when he should just say thank you?
I was upset and disappointed.
Eventually, I couldn’t control my emotions and exploded, so I clenched my fist and hit him hard on the shoulder.
“You bastard, you don’t even know what I was feeling.”
“Rosetta, wait a minute.”
“What was I supposed to do if something happened to you…”
Tears flowed down my cheeks.
‘How annoying. Why am I crying now?’
From my blurry vision, I could see Sihael panicking and not knowing what to do. I turned my head and wiped my cheek roughly. However, the emotions that once flared up did not calm down easily.
The fear and terror that I had barely buried inside suddenly came up.
I closed my eyes tightly at the memory of Sihael, who was covered in blood. I buried my head in my hand.
“Rosetta, look at me. Huh?”
“Go away. I want to be alone.”
I ruthlessly pushed away Sihael’s hand that was holding my wrist, but he didn’t give up. Suddenly, he held my cheek and raised my head. Because of the blurred vision, I couldn’t see Sihael’s face well. Then, something warm and soft touched my eyelids. As my eyes cleared from the flowing tears, what I saw was Sihael standing so close to me that we could feel each other’s breaths.
“Don’t cry.”
I blinked blankly at the hand wiping away my tears. His lips touched once more near my eyes.
“If you cry, I don’t know what to do.”
