The prior night was a haze or rather, a dream come true. Had she truly visited the festival with Charlotte and Zarai? Had she rode the roller coaster? The food tasted as delicious as it smelled. No longer was she watching from outside of the carnival. There wasn’t any noble taunting her mother and her for being too poor to afford tickets, or for her getting caught sneaking in.

The next morning, it seemed that sleep had taken over Olivia. Delilah had knocked on her door and startled Olivia out of her sleep. Bamboozled, Olivia quickly rushed to get ready. Charlotte had gone to buy a gift for Lord Drake by herself–a feat that caused Liv’s nerves to run. With reassurances from Delilah and breakfast from Gilbert, Olivia’s worries eased. Due to being underweight as herself, Delilah always ensured she ate more food. Olivia ate so fast that Gilbert hardly made it back to the kitchen and back to her to ensure her plate was filled again. 

Afterwards, Delilah helped her get ready and pick out a dress–something she detested picking out or wearing, and therefore needed assistance. The dress was selected by Delilah, however the maid was merciful and allowed her to wear flats instead of heels. She shuddered at the thought, but entertained the idea of her hair being braided. Once ready, Olivia stared at her reflection; she was unrecognizable from her old self to now. What would Kazumin think? A deep ache in her chest caused her to momentarily pause. She took a deep breath and moved forward once Delilah called her name to collect her gift. She moved forward, although the morning itself still felt like a dream. If it was, she didn’t want to wake up from it.

Once at the Edward’s estate, Olivia inhaled. All the money they had and the extravagant birthday party they were throwing made Olivia’s stomach churn. While the rich partied and enjoyed their luxuries, the poor were starving. The morning indulgences she participated in caused guilt to rise. However, once she left her carriage with assistance, she pushed it out of her mind.

She entered the birthday party and stared with awe. She set her gift on the table and turned to see the attendees. Birthday boy Drake, Shehzadi Nahir, Princess Anastasia, Shehzade Farim, Prince Callum, Duke Lorenzo, Charlotte, Cassius, Knightwomen she didn’t know, Lord Leo and Ms. Zarai! Her mind raced as she struggled to process the information, and moved towards those she found familiar; however, a servant blocked her accidentally, or was it on purpose? The chaos near Calbert, including Cassius, Charlotte, Lorenzo and others, was enough to make her stay clear unless Charlie needed her.

With a sigh, she noticed Zarai sitting by herself and close enough to the others. Her heart began to race as she swiftly moved towards Zarai. Her stomach fluttered and her nerves returned.
