The Abandoned Baroness is one of the Black Knight's favorites

In a happy little sleep, Sofia rubbed against the warmth just ahead. Contrary to the soft bedding, it is hard and firm. Even so, it feels comfortable with a smooth feeling that feels familiar. Sophia was immersed in happiness, and soon she heard a low laugh in her ear. Open your eyes and rush to hide your face, pulling up the disturbed sheets into the gently thinned blue eyes and complexion that you immediately see.

"─ ─ I'm sorry!

The bed has a thin cloth canopy that softens the light past the curtains. It's bigger than the beds in the rooms Sophia used until a few months ago. It's only natural that this room is for the Marquis' wife, and hence the Marquis's wife, in the Townhouse of the Marquis of Forster.

"No, it's already happened. ─ Morning, Sofia."

Gilbert, who slightly lowered the sheets and exposed Sofia's face, put a light mouth on her forehead.

"Oh, hello... thank you..."

Gilbert's parents wanted the bedroom to be separated after the wedding in the Marquis de Folster, in case nothing happened between the social season and the reception. I was finally allowed to sleep together four months after the wedding, when I felt chilly at night - five days ago, after the reception. I'm not used to living with Gilbert's sweet smile when I wake up in the morning.

Gilbert leaves the bed wearing a nightwear that was lying on the floor. Sofia can't help but notice how colorful she looks in the refreshing morning sun. As Gilbert sat on the couch pulling the disturbed sheets back to her chest, Gilbert looked over the canopy.

"I change my clothes in my room, so Sofia should get dressed slowly. I'm calling a tailor this afternoon... so please stay calm until then."

"Yes, yes. I understand."

Gilbert nods to Sofia's reply and leaves the bedroom with the door open. Sophia finally relieved herself of her shoulders when she heard the sound of a slap closing.

Excuse me, ma'am.

As soon as Sofia replied, Carina came in. Align forward through sleeves to the sleeveless nightwear that was rolling to the edge.

Good morning, Carina.

"Morning, Sofia. ─ ─ I'm so close and envious, really."

Carina treats Sofia the way she has always done when she closes the door and is alone. This was decided by the two of us after we married Gilbert.

"Ugh, don't make fun of me."

When she dyed her cheeks ashamed, Carina smiled and opened the canopy, enclosing it in each pillar.

"It's not a good thing, on the contrary, you need to get along. Now, let's finish the bath."

I'm sure Gilbert will spend the morning on duty. From this afternoon Sofia is supposed to wear several dresses for this season's social occasions. I'm sure Gilbert's costume will be ready with me, so I wonder if you could cut me off at that time.

Sofia followed Carina to the bathroom with a slight buzzing feeling.

Previously, I studied etiquette and manners in the morning and the Marquis de Forster in the afternoon. Now that I've learned a lot about etiquette and manners, and I've learned a lot about Marquis territory, the challenges imposed on Sofia have decreased considerably. It turns out Hans reads the book and asks questions on time.

Sofia often devoted more free time to embroidery and reading. The main reason for this is to donate the embroidery to the church that houses the Marquis of Forster orphanage, but also to give it to Gilbert. It was a good time for Sofia to have both hobbies and benefits.

Sofia, it's time to get ready.

"Yeah, hold on, I'm gonna hold it right now."

Turn the thread around the back of the cloth just in the right place to keep the edges out of sight. I finally see the shape of a motif that combines a sword and a shield. A sword to defeat enemies and a shield to protect the country. Gilbert's Knights of the Guards emblem.

"Hey, Sofia."

What?

Cut the thread with a knife and stick the needle into the needle pile. When she raised her face, Carina looked at Sofia with a little embarrassment.

"─ ─ Is that difficult? I don't think I can do it."

Carina is acquainted with Kevin, who belongs to the same Knights Guard 2nd Platoon as Gilbert. Sofia, who knew it, loved Carina, who dyed her cheek slightly. It seems that they haven't made out yet, but Sofia is watching over them, hoping that they both will.

"I think I can. Carina, your hands are clever. Have you ever done embroidery?

According to Sofia, Carina shakes her neck loosely.

"You can do it from something simple. You want to practice with me?

"... is that okay? Why don't you stay out of Sofia's way?

Recently, Carina has become more reluctant towards Sofia. Is it because Sofia has become Gilbert's wife, or because she's watching more of Sofia's busy life nearby?

"It's okay because it won't. Can I mix it with my practice embroidery or donations?

"Of course!

When Sofia laughed at the prank, Carina laughed.
