She smiled and waved at me and I waved back.
A man came from behind Ava and kissed her hair, but he was_ looking directly at me. It was the same man who was sitting beside Ash's aunt. I always felt uneasy at the way he would look at me.
I averted my gaze from them and looked beside, only to find Ash looking at me." He is my cousin, the one I told you about," he said. "And you don't like him."
"I don't mean any..."
"I don't like him either," he said and I could not help but laugh.
"Sorry, it's not even funny...," I mumbled, trying to control my laughter. It would be a horrible thing if I started laughing hard in front of everyone.
"Just laugh if you want to. You look even more beautiful when you laugh."
I blushed at his words. He was so free with me... How could someone say that he was cruel and cold?
"And the thing you told me about being a queen... You can be any kind of queen that you want to."
