A good idea struck me just as I was in a bind, and I clapped my hands together.
“Everyone wins!”
Of course, both Alice and Cedric looked displeased and bewildered. After all, I had only one pair of socks.
“And my socks, which are to be given away as the prize, will be shared, a single sock each. What do you think?”
At my subsequent suggestion, both of them put on a satisfied face.
“As expected of Lady Emir. You’re so wise!”
“Oh, what a genius. Great. Let’s do that.”
Phew, I’m glad it worked out. I secretly exhaled a sigh of relief. I expected them to ask me to pick a real winner.
‘More than that, for the two of them, was their goal really to only have the socks that I knit? It didn’t even matter to them that it wasn’t a pair.’ I exchanged socks with Alice and Cedric. As a result, all three of us had matching socks. Mine were light blue and gray, Alice’s were light blue and white, and Cedric’s were gray and white.
‘Well… I’m glad everyone is happy.’
Cedric put on the pair of sock socks and smiled broadly. Alice didn’t put on the socks I gave her right away, but immediately put them in her bag.

The next day, we had lunch and we were all excited because there was an outdoor experiential learning session in the afternoon.Until then, classes had only been held indoors, so it was almost like an outdoor class for the first time. It must have required an intricate safety and security plan. Today, we can play happily on the big grassy meadow! Yay!
As if we were having a picnic, I put on my coat and prepared to go out. Just then, Jake called me and gave me the finished socks.
“I told my father about this, and he cast a spell. No matter how long you walk, your feet won’t get sweaty.”
“Wow, thank you so much, Jake! These are the most useful magic socks.”
Even if he gave me an ordinary pair, I would have been grateful for his sincerity, but Jake gave me a pair that even had magic on it. That too, a very, very useful magical spell! Somehow, I saw that Jake definitely finished his yesterday too, but he said he wouldn’t give them to me right away. Turns out, it was because he didn’t know how to cast spells.
‘I should keep these safe. Hehe.’
I turned around with the precious socks in my bag and saw the children who had finished their preparations go out.
“Wow, Your Highness the Princess. How pretty is that hat?”
Ninaina was wearing a wide-brimmed outdoor hat about three or four times the size of my head. At the compliment, Ninaina raised the corners of her lips and asked me, “Do you want it? I’ll give it to you.”
“Yes? No! I didn’t mean it that way…” I hurriedly waved my hand, but Ninaina had already taken off her hat and handed it to me. “Try it. No, I myself will put it on you. Immediately after, she covered my vision with the large hat.
“Oh, thank you. I like the hat. Thanks to this, my face will not be tanned.” I don’t know what it was made of, but it was super soft, so I didn’t think it wouldn’t let the skin tan, like a normal straw hat would. Nanaina replied, “Yes. Then you wear this hat.”
“But if I use this, you would have to go out in the scorching sun with a bare face.”
The hat was so big that I still couldn’t see Ninaina’s face. But I could hear her smirk.
“What do you see me as? Excluding this one, I brought five more hats. Well, this hat was my favorite. Hey, get me another hat.” Ninaina didn’t speak to me, but called the maid beside her to run errands. After a while, several hats were placed in front of the two of us. Ninaina looked around at the hats and said back to me, “That hat suits you best, you wear it. Emir, pick one for me.”
Oh. Suddenly, I had to choose Ninaina’s hat. I rolled my eyes in agony.
‘Will-will she like this? Or that one?’
Ninaina was wearing a dark blue dress, so white would look good on her. With that thought, I picked up a hat with a bright lace.
“How about this? I think it would go well with the clothes Your Highness is wearing!”
“Um, fine. Let’s do that.” Ninaina immediately nodded her head. Just then, something caught my mind a bit.
‘I’d better tell her.’
I was hesitant because I was too inexperienced to ask anyone, but soon I whispered back to Ninaina, “Oh, that’s a good idea.” Ninaina nodded her head at my words with an unusual expression.
‘Thank God!’
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
