บท 126: Don't be afraid mother is here

It was not long after that day I had returned to school. The crown prince had been shoved to the back of my mind because he would be someone I will worry about only upon our official engagement. 

That in itself will be a few world cycles away. 

Mother was placated with a somewhat lengthy discussion, followed by the usual doting before I was sent back to school.

Followed with mother insisting beforehand, that she will personally escort me to the gate.

I had felt slightly annoyed by this, I wished to use that time to personally ponder on somethings, but I could not for the life of me, fault this sheep of whom I have really accepted as my new mother for her insistence. 

it is after all normal for my mother to be clingy to a daughter, that seems to be growing up before her very eyes; her words not mine. Adding to the issue arising between the emperor family and mother, well, things seem to be quite tense.

Mostly, the crown prince.
