I Raised Snow White!

[Episode 08] – I hope that we become close (1)

The princess strongly frowned at the strong sunlight, enough to feel the light over her eyelids even with her eyes closed. Her face grew hot from the sunlight, and beads of sweat began to form on her white forehead.

Moan.

The sleepy princess didn’t want to move, but it was at that moment that she tossed and turned, thinking that her face would ripen like a bright red apple if she didn’t escape into her shade.

Sabaksabak-

The sound of stepping on the grass tickled the princess’ ears. The princess, drunk in her sleep, was not at all interested in who was coming near her.

It’s just that I couldn’t bear it because the sunlight was so uncomfortable that it made my eyes hurt. The moment the princess grunted and tried to raise her body to take refuge in the shade.

Talk.

There was the sound of something falling on the grass, and the sunlight that had dazzled her eyes was blocked.

As the sun that had been bothering her was overshadowed, the cool summer breeze pleasantly cooled the beads of sweat on her forehead.

The feeling was so good that the wrinkled eyes of the princess gradually relaxed.

She wanted to fall asleep while feeling the pleasant wind, but for some reason she felt a huge presence right next to her.

For some reason, he even gazes at himself intently.

Who is it?

The princess, narrowing her eyes as if very sleepy, stared at someone looking at her. I was too narrow, and I couldn’t see very well because of the blurry vision.

The princess could only vaguely know that the person in front of her was a woman. She’s a woman with long hair, slender fingers, and a smile as she squats and looks at herself.

‘Oh my God..?’

How is Mama here with Mama?

Did you finally come out of that dark room?

The princess smiled bashfully at the thought of seeing her mother after a long time. The moment I opened my eyes properly because I wanted to look at Mama’s face right away-

“Ellie? The princess’s maid-“

It’s not my mother’s voice.

Flash.

The princess’s eyes widened.

As she turned her head to see where her voice came from, the princess felt her heart skip a beat. Her heart began to pound as she felt her body cool down.

‘Uh, uh..?’

The princess’ eyes shook like an earthquake. I was so shocked that I couldn’t even scream.

Just now, the blonde hair that looks yellow in the sunlight, and the green eyes that look dark in the shade.

I was so scared that I felt like crying right now.

As the princess looked at Vivian’s face, memories of her funeral home came to her mind.

The princess was disgusted when she heard that the scary woman had died, and since Obama did not participate, she had to attend the funeral even if she was herself.

‘Why am I…’

The princess pursed her lips and struggled with her feet on the chair that her feet did not reach. The maid, dressed in her funeral attire, comforted her princess with a wry smile.

In the first place, the number of times she met the second queen, who was said to have drowned in the lake, was so small that she could count without folding her ten fingers. For some reason, she became the second queen because she hated herself.

So the princess did not bother to meet the second queen. When she met her, she said, ‘I hate kids,’ ‘Don’t stand out from me, you ugly kid,’ etc… She could only remember being cursed at by the second queen.

So even though she said that the second queen had died, the princess was a bit surprised, but she wasn’t sad or anything like that. Because she was the one who cursed herself in the first place. It was a pity, pitiful, kind of emotion for her.

Entering her funeral home with such indifferent feelings, the princess slowly headed towards the second queen’s coffin. She explained that her maid, who had given her the white lilies, would only have to leave her flowers in her coffin.

With everyone watching, the princess slowly moved her steps towards the coffin. As the maid said, she just left the flowers and came right away. She moved at a slightly faster pace than usual.

Approaching her coffin, the princess lowered her head and glanced at her second queen. Her paper-pale skin and her bloodless white lips were frightening.

‘I have to leave it soon…’

Really, it was the moment I was about to put down the lilies.

“Kkeuk-! Coke-!”

The moment she reached for her coffin to place her flowers, her immobile second queen looked up at herself, her red bloodshot eyes flashing open. Water gushed from her bloodless lips.

“Wow, wow! Coke! Coke!”

The Second Queen, who had scratched her chest and neck with her claws as if in pain, jumped up from her coffin and began to vomit her water in front of herself. Water mixed with red water dripped onto the floor.

“Hey, hehehe…”

Tumbling.

The princess’ legs trembled.

It looked just like the scary ghosts the maids had told me about. Terrible ghosts and monsters that dig up the soil of the tomb and climb up to harass people.

‘Don’t cry, don’t cry, don’t cry, don’t cry.’

Until this point, the princess’ reason had been alive to some extent. Even in a situation where grown-up adults ran away, saying, “Save me,” Only the princess stood firm in front of the coffin with trembling legs.

The moment she caught her breath to somehow calm her trembling legs and her heart, the second queen’s hand, which was struggling with her pain, brushed past the princess’s wrist.

“Hick-“

The sensation of cold skin like a corpse ran up the princess’s spine, and in that way, the princess had no choice but to let go of the reason she was holding on to in fear.

From noble mtl dot com

That was the princess’ last memory of that day.

“Evil-!! Ah-!!”

“Gwa, it’s okay..! Her Highness, the Queen, has no intention of harming the Princess..! “

“Evil-!!”

I couldn’t help but stare at the princess hiding behind a tree and crying. If you take even one step closer, it’s not just ‘ugh’, it’s ‘ahh-!!’ And cries out.

All I could do was give the princess some distance so that she would cry a little less. I never thought that the princess would be so afraid of Vivian…

Ellie was trying to appease her princess somehow, but…

If Ellie turns left with the tree in the middle, the princess avoids Ellie and turns round and round around her tree, so they couldn’t meet each other.

It made my eyes dizzy from how it was spinning.

“I didn’t expect the princess to hate Vivian so much…”

-There are things I don’t like, but that’s what I’m afraid of. You must have seen it at the funeral home…

“…That’s it.”

Listening to Ainsel’s story reminded me of a funeral home. Come to think of it, when I woke up, there was a princess right in front of me..?

She must have been scared if she saw that.

She originally intended to distance herself from the princess, but she did not intend to distance herself in this way. I don’t mind at all if we keep growing apart because you’re afraid of me, but…

“Go away!! Evil!!!”

“Go, princess… But there is blood on her palms..! I will only treat your wounds..! Yes..?”

“Evil!!!!!!”

I was worried that if I continued like this, I might be left with a trauma. It is said that trauma that occurred as a child is difficult to heal even as an adult…

Even as an adult, I didn’t want to see a princess who was afraid of me.

“…I should at least stop crying.”

– Yes? How? The princess screams like that even when I get a little closer..?

“There are ways.”

I bent my head and picked a small wild flower and put it on my finger. I learned it as a hobby in the past, but will it still work? I got to the point where she didn’t scream and met her gaze.

When the princess saw that I was approaching, she tensed up and hid behind a tree. Glancing at me, he was glaring at me as if threatening to burst into tears if I got any closer.

Okay or not, I pulled a flower I had just picked from the sleeve of my dress. The princess looked at me without saying anything, and I smiled at the thought that I could start.

“Now, take a good look here.”

I held the flower the princess was staring at in my right hand. Then, turning her hand over, she showed the back of her hand to the princess, and bumped into her left hand.

“Princess? Where are the flowers?”

“……”

I was taken aback by the princess who didn’t say anything, so I looked around and asked Ellie. Ellie was also looking at me curiously.

“…Ellie? Where do you think the flowers are?”

“Uh… The left..?”

Ellie tilted her head and pointed at her left hand.

Perhaps she thought that when I saw her pretending to bump her left hand, I giggled and held out her left hand in front of Ellie, blowing in the wind and showing her hand.

However, there was nothing in my hand, let alone a flower.

“What? Then the right hand is still…”

I blew on her right hand the same way, then spread her right hand in front of Ellie. However, the flower did not exist in the right hand either.

“Wow!”

Ellie looked down at my palm in amazement.

After seeing Ellie’s reaction, I glanced over and identified her princess. Before I knew it, the princess with only her upper body sticking out from the side of the tree was looking at me with her eyes sparkling as if she were curious.

“Where did the flowers go?”

“Look carefully, where are you?”

Finally, I put my right hand behind Ellie’s ear and took out the flower I had held between my index and middle fingers. As she softly put the flower in Ellie’s ear, Ellie’s face turned red as if she was amazed.

“How is it, isn’t it amazing?”

“Poetry, this is amazing…”

The magic I practiced out of boredom during my school days was quite well received. It’s more like putting flowers on your fingers and acting rather than magic, but the reaction was so good that I felt good too.

I picked wild flowers from the floor again and slowly approached the princess.

Unlike before, evil-! He didn’t make a sound or cry, just glanced up at me.

Half curiosity, half anxiety.

I smiled at the gaze sent with that feeling, and showed the same magic to the princess as before. I put the flower I had picked between my fingers and acted so as not to be seen.

If there is something different from the previous magic…

Finally, when I tried to take the flower out from behind the princess’s ear, the princess first raised her hand and tapped her own ear to confirm.

Obviously, you would have thought her flowers would be in his ears…

“Uh..? Should be here…?”

Are there any flowers there?

The princess looked up at me with her eyes wide open as if she did not understand. The figure was so cute that I smiled and put my hand behind the princess’s ear.

“Are you here?”

I put a flower in the princess’s ear, and the princess looked at me with surprised eyes as if she were really curious. I must have completely forgotten what I cried earlier, and now I want to do it again.

“One more time! Only once!”

At some point, the princess’s body was completely free from the tree and was clutching at the hem of my dress. Unknowingly, I stroked the princess’ hair and smiled just like the princess.

“How is it? Aren’t you afraid now?”
