"Lady Rose! I'm so glad you're alive!", Cassandra called my name with tears and started to embrace me tightly in front of everyone.
Everyone was looking at us with a question mark written on their head. I then tried to let go of her grasp but she just kept hugging me even tighter and won't let go.
"Um...Miss, I think you got the wrong person here, my name is Sasha and I am the owner of this restaurant", I then told her that but she was so persistent and still not let go of me.
" Sasha, Is there a problem between the two of you?", Gilbert asked me with full concern.
"It's okay, I got it under control", I replied with a smile at Gilbert even though it's obvious that I was in a trouble.
Moments later, Cassandra finally relaxes and has a seat at the guestroom. She was so flustered after what happened in the restaurant this morning and can't look at me in the eye.
" I apologize for my rude behavior this morning. It's just that you reminded me of someone that I knew since both of you have a similar face",
"It's okay, I'm sure you've been through a lot of hardship because of that person",
" Yeah....can you hear my story?",
"Sure",
" Well, it actually because.....",
I comforted her so she won't be embarrassed and sad anymore because of me. She then told me about what happened after I, Rose Bennett, was killed in an attempt of escaping the prison.
According to her, when princess Alicia has awakened after the serious injury on her head last month, there was an attempt of assassination and poisoning day after day to keep her mouth shut but the prince managed to defend her from the relentless threat.
When princess Alicia finally testimony that I was also a victim like her and point out the perpetrators.
The prince and my brothers were found guilty by the king of committing a murder of Rose Bennett and was given a house arrest instead of jail due to being manipulated. The perpetrators were executed right away for harming princess Alicia and the cause of my death.
Upon receiving the news of my death, princess Alicia shut herself in her room and blamed herself as the cause of my death.
"I really want to help her but I don't want to go back with that family", I said to myself consciousness with unease expression.
" I'm sorry for taking your time at your busy hour",
"No, it's okay, if you have a problem you tell me anytime and I'll listen to you",
Cassandra politely apologized again for troubling me but I don't mind at all. She also felt guilty for not being able to protect me while escaping from the prison together. I feel sorry for her to have been through with my problems.
" I'll be taking my leave then", She said as she tried to stand up
"Wait, why don't I serve you with foods from my restaurant first, It's on the house", I stopped her and treat her with the food that from my previous world
" Uh what's this?", she asked while drool is falling from her mouth.
"It's called ramen, it's a wheat noodle served in a meat or fish-based broth, often flavored with soy sauce or miso, and uses toppings such as sliced pork, nori, menma, and scallions", I explained with pride and honor since it came from my home country.
" Whash thish, isz sho gwuud! (What's this, It's so good)", she commented while enjoying her food with her cute expression.
I just grinned at her with joy because of her comment. After that, she went home with a full stomach and a relaxed soul because of the ramen. She then bid me farewell and will come again next time.
