However, this reaction was fun. I poked Assisi, who looked stiff.
âAssisi? Assisi? Are you upset? Are you upset?â
âNo. I am not upset.â
âDonât say no. You are obviously upset.â His stiff tone was saying that he was upset, but he persisted stubbornly that he was fine. I smiled a little.
âI think you are.â
âNo. Iâm not.â
âReally not?â
âYes.â
Aha, so thatâs the game he wanted to play
Assisi gave me an uncomfortable look when I smiled. Well, thenâ¦
âAssisi, foot!â
âPrincess!â
I thought he might give me a real foot, but I guessed I was too outspoken this time. Ah, that was close!
I laughed so hard after hearing Assisiâs response, and Serira shook her head like she felt like she couldnât stop me. âMom, whatâs wrong? You have no idea how fun this is. Itâs so much fun that I might die of laughing.â
Assisi huffed. I was choking with laughter.
âAssisi, I donât feel wellâ¦â
âWhat? Where does itâ¦â
âMy heart.â
ââ¦â
Oh no, I couldnât breathe because I was laughing so hard!
Assisiâs dumbfounded expression was really overwhelming. Oh, I felt like I was dying. It was fun to make fun of him, but itâs really addictive. How could I stop this when I was having so much fun?
âHehe.â
âAre you angry? Are you angry?â
With a look of discontent, Assisi glared at me. He closed his mouth and stared at me. Now, thatâs a little scary⦠not! Nevermind! I laughed harder. Oh, my. Every response he made was so precious.
âAre you going to keep this up?â
âWhat did I do?â
ââ¦â
What did I do?
Assisi frowns lightly. I laughed more for nothing. Heehee. Oh, itâs me, but I was really mean.
Assisi just gave up everything and sighed. Uh, what should I try this time? What else should I use this time? I looked around with a determination to make fun of Assisi.
That was when I found exactly what I was looking for.
âAssisi, look at this!â
Assisi turned his head to see what I had in mind now. Then his face got stiff.
âPrincess, blood!â
âIâm dying of pain!â
A red thing flowed through my arm. Assisi ran to me and looked at my bleeding arm.
âWhen did you get hurt like thisâ¦?!â
âHeh, itâs strawberry jam.â
ââ¦â
âYou were fooled, werenât you?â
How could he be tricked when itâs obviously a strawberry jam? When I giggled right away, Assisiâs face really hardened. Somehow he looked really, really angry. I had never seen Assisiâs combative look before. The soft-hearted guy was giving me a fierce look, and now I felt a little guiltyâ¦
Uh, was I a little harsh this time?
