The nobles in front of Peachy were the most notable ones in the social circle;
Baroness Elysa of the House of Baker
Baroness Lita of the House of Vans
Viscountess Sophia of the House of Jung
Viscountess Jacque of the House of Roxas
Marchioness Alaine of the House of Santos
Marchioness Lee of The House of Yuri
Two of the noble ladies were the youngest of them all, it was Viscountess Sophia and Viscountess Jacque, despite their age they are very informed on what is happening around them, they are also the ones' making jewely and clothes trendy.
That is why a lot of dress shops and jewellery shops sought the two young ladies in the circle to be their advertiser.
But the highest rank of all in the social circle is the Petal of the Amaryllis Council and Belle of Society.
"I heard that Lady Luna is ill, that is why she cannot attend the noble tea party today as well"
"Is there a sickness going around?"
"Apparently, Lady Luna has been feeling ill for some time now, not just today, she has already missed three? Tea parties of the social circle"
"I do not think so, Lady Elysa, if there is a sickness going around we wouldn't be facing each other like this"
"In regard of what Marchioness Alaine said, maybe she has a weak constitution? When she was young she was very thin"
'Why are they discussing whether someone would be ill just by being thin?'
'Their conversation is just gossip now, I am not really interested in this kind of conversation, but I must endure.'
"You mean a Baron took away all of her wealth?!"
"That is why she should have made sure of her partnership"
'Now they are talking about a baroness being robbed of her wealth by a baron who she made partnership with, I'd like to gossip with Penzilvana more than this woman.'
Peachy ate to get rid of her boredom.
'I do not even think that their words are worth mentioning to my sister, but being in this social circles I need to pay attention since they may say a snide comment about my sister that I haven't even noticed yet'
"Princess Peachy"
"Yes, Marchioness Lee?"
"The debutante ball is getting near once again, are you ready for it?"
"Of course, occasions such as that should be prepared for, my dress is already ready"
"As expected of Princess Peachy"
"I do not have any dresses yet...it is still a long way to go is it not?"
"Lady Sophia is a bit naïve is she not?"
"I thought the Princess here is the naïve one"
"Hahaha, I have knowledge with me Baroness Lita" Peachy retaliated
"I never said that you did not have any"
"Yes, it shows who has knowledge and who does not"
"You should pre-order beforehand, a lot of dress shops will be booked, so that is why you should be one step ahead of everyone, Lady Sophia"
"Viscountess Jacque is the one that gave her advice"
"Thank you for the advice, when I arrive home, I will tell mother and father to pre-order already"
"Of course what is the use of a dress when you do not have any escort with you!"
"I already have an escort"
"What about you Princess Peachy?"
"Not yet"
"You must secure an escort as well beforehand"
"I could also just look for one at the ball, it is fine whether I don't have one or I do, the important thing is that I have enjoyed my debutante"
"But that is the peak of youth! You must enjoy yourself Princess Peachy or else-"
"I will become my sister?"
"I did not say anything"
"My sister is a beautiful woman, the only ones that have a problem with her is the men, that only sees her outer appearance"
Princess Peachy looked at the noble ladies, her eyes looking at each and every one of them.
"You are also afraid of my sister, are you not?"
"Of course not your highness, we are not afraid of her majesty"
"Shall I call for her presence, to see if you are not afraid...?"
"Princess Peachy, please do not jest"
"My point taken"
"It is more appealing to society if you bring an escort, Princess Peachy that is the ideal thing to do"
"I will see what I can do, to find myself an escort"
'They changed topic after I said that, couldn't they just stay on one topic? The topic now is jewellery.'
'I ate once again, by the time I was done eating, everyone was saying it was starting to get late'
"Princess Peachy, thank you for inviting us in this tea party"
'It was my sister that invited you not me'
Peachy nodded and smiled at the noble ladies, she waited for them to get out of the Palace first before she groaned and sighed.
'Being stiff and formal all the time, it makes my body ache'
Peachy went back to the Palace, it was already sun set, Peachy searched for Penzilvana wanting to see what she was doing.
They met in the hall, the fairy also looked exhausted.
"You look tired"
"I look haggard, those brats are the worst, why can't they be like you? Well-behaved!"
"Hahaha..."
"How was your day?"
"Stiff and aching, those noble ladies would not stop talking what they say is all gossip, and I am tired of hearing those gossips"
"It's tough for the two of us and this needs to last for how long again?"
"Three months"
Both of them groaned, but Penzilvana perked up, she told Peachy that she had some news to share with her.
"Remember what I said before?"
"About?"
"Wait...we need to go to your room first"
Penzilvana dragged her to her room, Peachy sits on her bed, while Penzilvana sits on a chair.
"The suitors introduced each other, and do you know who joined them?"
"Who?"
"Shadow"
"Shadow...wait, What?!"
"I was also shocked, it was Maculata's decision to let him join, the suitors, there are now five suitors in total, Shadow, Zero, Prince Calcifer, Ouran and Nick"
"Sister...assigned Shadow to become a suitor? Surely there was someone who urge her to decide this, what about the Duke?"
"Unfortunately this time, I don't know, we were scolding Zero remember?"
"Oh, yeah..."
"Their conversation happened around that time, but I do think that the Duke somewhat convinced her"
"I don't really have any qualms on who my sister has as a Suitor, I am just shocked that she would pick Shadow"
"Me too, maybe Maculata secretly like Shadow?"
"Shadow has been around her all the time, even when we were young he is always lurking and helping her"
"Or maybe it is also the other way around?"
"Shadow liking Maculata?"
"Hard to believe. I know"
"I don't think Maculata would like Shadow her personality isn't like it used to, she will just disregard shadow"
"Why did my sister become so complicated?"
"Why don't you ask the past her?"
"I know, I am just saying it out loud"
Just then a knock caught their attention, Penzilvana got up and opened the door.
"Let me guess, Reymond-"
"Good evening, Lady Penzilvana"
"Shadow?!"
"To you as well your highness"
"What's up?"
"May I come in first?"
"You may"
He comes in he was very fidgety the girl looked at him with a curious expression on their faces, they can't determine his expression since he had a mask on.
"I wanted your advice on being a suitor"
"You want, advice from us?"
"We do not have any experience on this kind of matter Shadow..."
"Ah, well, any advice is fine"
Penzilvana and Peachy look at each other, they tell him to sit down.
"Give her what she likes, I guess?"
"She does not like flowers nor sweets, give her something sour or spicy, she loves those"
"Do her work for her?"
"Penzilvana! You aren't helping!" She furrowed her brows at her
"Look, just be sweet to Maculata"
"But I cannot touch her nor do I know how to be sweet with words"
"Just be yourself, Shadow, there is no need for you to be a show-off"
"Alright, thank you for your advice"
Shadow disappears, Penzilvana shrugged at Peachy, Peachy falls onto her bed sighing, she kicks her shoes off.
"You aren't going to change?"
Peachy got reminded she sat up got out of bed and changed then went to bed, Penzilvana face-palms.
"I am debating if she is really fit for the Princess role, well I cannot blame her since she is very tired"
Penzilvana twirls around and transforms into a tiny fairy, she flies out of the window of the Princess and towards the room of the Queen.
She looks at what Maculata is doing, she was still doing paperwork, she transforms into her human form once again and lifted the papers into a neat stack, using her powers.
She sighs and looks at Penzilvana she has a disapproving look on her face.
"I am still not done yet"
"You are done NOW, get to bed"
"Penzilvana..."
"Maculata"
The Queen sighs and went to bed, she lays down and immediately fell asleep.
"It looks like everyone is tired today"
Penzilvana yawned, she transforms into her fairy form and goes inside her small bonsai house.
"Sleep..."
She changed attire first before she laid down to sleep.
