Edda stepped out quickly as soon as she saw Ruby in the hallway. A big smile was printed on her face, making her look as sweet as sugar. She hugged Ruby's legs, rubbing her face against the queen's skirt.
Her spoiled behavior succeeded in cheering Ruby up, even her mind became lighter as if she never had any problems. She lifted Edda so that she could look at her face closely.
Ruby pinched Edda's cheek. "Are you tired of waiting for me?"
Edda shook her head quickly. "Everyone says that the queen is a very busy person, so I won't be angry if you arrive late."
Ruby held her breath for a few moments, not expecting such a small child to think like an adult. Edda was born in a harsh environment, so her maturity would grow faster than children born in a comfortable environment.
