“Did I do something ae0f72d27c wrong? I’ve been thinking, 414a997810 and it feels 4a55195fc5 like you’ve been 777eaf9cee acting strange since bec86815a0 your birthday. Was it b737de1a31 because you 34dcd53f84 didn’t like 3c3aa2138b my gift?”091d65a838f84075

Is that it? I’m sorry, his downcast, 797213c23b apologetic expression was e8ead33cdd so much like daf33e06fa the Aiden I 834b1441c5 remembered from childhood.b5a26c9780a2b690

As I laughed to 2d162ae5d2 myself, I suddenly felt 4150400e71 a stare on my 33757dcbee cheek.cab14e689f86c281

Aiden was a75cf8eb31 looking at 400817e867 me with 158abf0c90 a thoroughly b23c37c15f displeased expression, dbf9b0a5a5 as if 860d7b79df wondering why a8081054d4 this person f9275ce020 was still 41b3d9ea3a standing here f09b731050 laughing.8ab8d28fb9f30ebc

It was embarrassing to cf353ffc85 admit, but ever since 425fc5b71c I became the grand 6c539c3920 princess, people always recognized 273a7591e7 me—this was the first af4ba3dc99 time someone had shown a876e48aff zero interest in my 764463033b identity.4e29994b05219af6
