*Roxanne's POV*
After breakfast, I immediately put on my dress with the finest fabric and chose the most beautiful hairstyle possible. Today was the day Ethan would leave the capital and head to the rebellion region, and I might not see him for a few weeks. Recently, my relationship with Ethan had developed significantly, and yesterday we grew closer while chatting in the garden. He started making fun of me in a non-offensive way, and I puffed out my cheeks without realizing it because I was a bit annoyed by his teasing. I will never forget Ethan's reaction at that moment.

"You're so cute..."
As I felt my cheeks warm up, I felt a hand on my head. These big and warm hands were definitely Ethan's, and when I looked at him, he was patting my head with a smile on his face.
