Chapter 205: Chapter 204 - The Death of Another King

"So, are you going to tell me why you are locking yourself inside the house? Your mother said something yesterday, but I don't think it's because of that." I sat on the bed along with her after she calmed down a bit and finished eating.

I had to stand there looking at her while she ate, it wasn't a very good feeling so I just went to the window and opened it. I stood there looking out.

Some neighbors saw me and seemed to be talking about it, but I ignored it.

'I'm a kid, don't make strange rumors.' I thought as I looked at the old women whispering among themselves as they looked at me. They didn't even bother to hide that they were talking about me.

But I ignored it and pretended I wasn't seeing.

And now that Rose had finished eating, I was sitting with her so that we could talk.

"What did my mother say? It wasn't anything weird, was it?" Rose's face was a little red. What kind of thing is she hiding from me?
