"T-then, please excuse me, Your Majesty. I-I still have many things to do!" Meredith bowed once more and scurried out of Swan's room.
Meredith seemed to be a very meek, honest and hardworking girl, which reminded Swan of herself when she was just a maid working in the Holy Achate Palace.
'But she is cuter and has a pair of working legs,' Swan thought.
As ridiculous as it seemed, she still felt a bit envious of women who weren't a cripple like her. Sometimes, she fantasized about wearing those beautiful heels that Aria wore, which made a rhythmic tapping sound that alerted everyone whenever she strutted at a party.
Swan also wanted to dance, just like Aria when she danced with those men at the party.
Swan had no intention of dancing with those men, simply because she wasn't comfortable with those men to begin with.
