“Ekaterina.”

I was on my way to my classroom after the ceremony when Alexei called out to me.

“Brother!” I exclaimed, running up to him. “Your speech was magnificent!”

“Really? It was last minute, so I didn’t say much.”

He says, like it’s nothing. As I’d expected, due to the difference from the game, he’d filled in for the original speaker.

“Rather than my rushed speech, what did you think about His Highness’s?”

“Huh?”

“Prince Mikhail took to the stage after me, remember?”

Huh-wuh-whaaaat?! Why does Alexei care about him? How do I tell him that I have zero clue what he said because I was speculating about weird things? Oh no, did it show on my face?!

“Ah. It, uh... Well...it was...great?”

I’m being so obvious. I should be honest. He won’t get mad, right?

“But... Truth is...I...don’t remember much of it,” I admitted.

Alexei froze.

Oh no, he must be disappointed. Please, it’s not my fault your speech was a hundred times more engaging than His Highness’s!

“B-Brother! Speeches aside, I have a question for you, if that’s okay?”

“Of course, go ahead.”

“Do you have a fiancée?”

“...Sorry?” he let out, a puzzled look on his face.

“I’m aware that I have no say in this, but please let me state one thing! No matter your choice of future wife, I hereby promise that I’ll never mistreat her even a bit! Even if we end up clashing, I won’t cause you any trouble! Please, don’t worry even a second about it!” I exclaimed, clenching my fist unconsciously as I spoke with as much conviction as I could, hoping to prove my sincerity.

Bullying young brides is not okay! I promise to take that motto to heart!

“Clashing...” Alexei repeated before bursting into laughter.

How rare.

It was my first time seeing him laugh so heartily. He looked somewhat childish like that

How adorable!

It wasn’t a laughing matter, though! Conflictual relationships with your in-laws as a huge problem! Not that I’d ever had any in-laws.

I noticed a couple of students stopping in their tracks to stare at Alexei, dumbfounded.

“I-I’m not engaged,” he eventually said, removing his monocle and wiping away the tears that had formed in his eyes. “I’ll ponder such things after I graduate. Between my work and studies, I haven’t had a moment to consider it. Besides, I’m not interested in taking a wife before I ensure you’re in good hands and happily married. So, you don’t need to worry about clashing with my fiancée any time soon, I promise.”

Then, he wasn’t engaged! I felt relieved—and I couldn’t help but notice he was even cuter than usual without his monocle.

“Well, I won’t marry until I see you find contentment with a wonderful partner,” I answered.

“In that case, neither of us can get married, can we? I suppose we’d just have each other forever.”

“How lovely! That’d make me happiest!” I exclaimed. My brother was my fave so that absolutely worked for me!

“You have a child’s innocence, Ekaterina,” he said, chuckling. “Take your time growing up. And come to me once you’ve finally found someone you like. As long as that man makes you happy, I’ll help your wish come true.
