Chapter 7
Each flavor was divided into two pieces. There were a total of ten pieces in small paper bags that were tied with pretty ribbons.
It wasn’t even difficult to tie the ribbons since my hands have had practice from my previous life.
My parents, the butler, and Carrie were unaware of the fact so they surrounded me and were surprised.
“Oh my God, Mir. I didn’t know your dexterity was so excellent!”
“Oh my lady. There’s nothing that you can’t do.”
“The lady seems to have the hand of God. Ho ho.”
Oh, stop it.
This motion is just familiar to my hands……
Anyway, being treated as a genius (even though I am not) is a pretty good feeling, so I laughed without hesitation.
When I walked around the house with colorful packages, other maids and servants also saw my work and praised me. I was proud.
“Now, my lady, you’ve made all the caramel, took a walk and a bath, so it’s time to sleep.”
Carrie hugged me tightly as she carried me and headed to the bedroom.
Um, I have feet too…… I thought about complaining, but I soon started falling asleep in Carrie’s warm arms.
That’s right, a child’s body needs a lot of sleep. It was only 8 pm, but for me, it was bedtime.
What was sleep in my previous life? It was the time to run around, but now my body has reached its limit and my eyes were closing on their own! Even if Carrie didn’t come to pick me up, I probably would have gone to bed to sleep.
“My caramel, I’m going to put it all here. No one is going to eat it accidentally?”
I jumped out of Carrie’s arms when we reached my bedroom. I organized the caramel bags I was holding, I was thinking of putting them on a small side table near my bed.
Fortunately, Carrie didn’t stop me, as if my behavior seemed to be funny.
“You look like a little squirrel, miss.”
“Huh?”
“Squirrels always hide their food in their cheeks.”
Carrie smiled at me as she answered. Squirrel……
“What do you mean, squirrels and I can’t compare, nanny. Squirrels are much cuter.”
“Ho-ho, the Young Lady is cuter in my eyes. Oh, now, I’ll go out. Good night.”
Carrie laughed and said goodbye to me. Oh yeah. Talking about my sleeping habits at this point…… I do not sleep with my nanny or my parents.
Often, 6-year-olds in this world sleep with their nanny, even if they were born noble.
It is natural because I am young. In this place, it is common to sleep independently from the age of ten, but I chose to sleep alone. I have been stubborn since I was able to communicate.
There’s no other reason than that I’m afraid of speaking nonsense in my sleep.
This is a book and I didn’t want to be caught speaking badly about the imperial family in my sleep or saying something suspicious.
So I sleep in bed alone. I stretched out my hand and turned off the light.
“Sleep well, Lady Mir.”
“Yes. Good night, Carrie.”
After the nanny left, I pulled the blanket all the way up over my head to sleep.
But I couldn’t sleep well.
I kept thinking of the kindergarten that I was going to attend tomorrow.
What kind of children will be there?
‘There will be me, Jake, the prince, and the princess.’
I was told we would be six, so I was curious who the remaining two would be.
I wondered if they would really greet me. I wish they would talk to me first……
No, no I have to start with the caramel.
‘Hmm, this will be the first gift, I hope it doesn’t get rejected. Can I do it well?’
I was curious whether the princess and the prince would accept my caramel, and I wondered if the children that I will see for the first time would also accept my gift.
Because of those worries, I fell asleep much later than usual.

“Mir, Mir!”
I heard someone waking me up.
I thought it would be my nanny, Carrie, and shook my hand weakly and drooled.
