Dance Lessons

When we open up the door room of the dance lesson class, the teacher glared at me.

"I already waited for 2 hours for the princess, why this castle maid and the butler is so useless. Can't even keep watch on the princess, come princess let's start the lesson."

Is the dance teacher thought me as a butler that works for this castle, I am sure that she will be shocked when she knew my role here? I guess, for now, I will play along with the butler role. Lily and I then sit down on the chair in the room.

I watch Princess Melia getting scold when she can't make some of the dances moves. The dance teacher then glares to me again.

"I want to ask you something, who is the little girl beside you?"

"This girl, she is my daughter, Lily."

"Hmm, I thought this castle forbids any maid or butler to bring their children here but nevermind that I was asking to borrow your daughter, for a while."

"For what?"

"This next part of dance requires two people and that why I need your daughter help for a while."

I say okay to the teacher as the dance teacher took Lily's hand and went to the dressing room to change Lily's cloth. After a few minutes, the teacher and Lily came out of the room.

I never saw Lily wearing that kind of dress. She looks great in it. The dance teacher then began to resume the lesson again. I guess this is the first time I see Lily dance. Princess Melia makes a lot of mistakes in the dance while Lily was very good at it.

The dance teacher even praises Lily and saying that she has a talent for dancing.

"Princess! Do you see, this commoner child is better than you a princess. You should feel ashamed."

I feel sorry for Princess Melia as she was getting scolded again as I stand up from the chair and about to tell the dance teacher to stop scolding the princess but suddenly the dance room door was open by the two maids.

"We are so sorry, Miss Alyson. We couldn't find..." They stop talking when they saw Princess Melia already in the room. They confused about what had happened but as soon the maids saw me, they realized that I was the one that sends Princess Melia here.

"Thank you, Sir, for sending Princess Melia here... We are sorry that Princess Melia causing you this hassle."

The dance teacher feels weird about why the maid is being formal with me and asks them why they were doing so. "Why are you maids formal with him, isn't he is you...."

"This man is the diplomat from the Golkiem Kingdom and that little girl is her daughter."

Miss Alyson finally knew who am I actually and realized that she was rude to me. She immediately apologized for her action and begged me to not tell the king about it.

"It's fine cause you don't know who am I but promise me that you would not scold Princess Melia again or I will tell the King about this it."

"I promise...so please don't tell the king."

"Don't worry as long you keep your promise. I will not tell the king."

Miss Alyson thanks me, after that, her behaviour towards me change a lot. She was way nicer to me now. I could see that she does not scold the princess anymore. I guess she afraid about it. I did wonder what will happen if the king knew about it.

After one hour, the dance lesson for today is finished. Lily and Princess Melia become so much closer and they become friends. The maids then took Princess Melia to another class and before they leave the maids thanks me again.

When we also about to leave, Miss Alyson grabbed my hand and told me to wait as she wants to discuss something. "Could you stay for a minute, they're something that I want to discuss with you."

"Okay, what do you want to discuss?"

Miss Alyson seems to hesitate but then she tells me, "Could you bring your daughter here again tomorrow as she will be a great dance partner for the princess."

"Sure, but let me ask the king and the queen about it first if they approve it...Okay"

Miss Alyson's face seems happy when I agree to her request. I don't know why she was happy about it but I just glad that she finally smiles. I never saw her smile but she is pretty cute when she smiles as she has the dimple.

"I forgot to introduce my name. I am Alyson Miriel."

"I am Arias and you already have known my daughter name, Lily."

Miss Alyson seems unsure about something and then she asks me, "Can I ask you one question if you don't mind..."

"Sure just ask ahead."

"You seem pretty young to have a child and where is your wife..."

I have never thought that before, am I that young?  In my world, I was 22 but here I am about 20 years old and Lily was 10 if I recalled it correctly. How should I respond to her question, I guess I should tell her the truth.

"Lily is my stepdaughter as her parents died when she was very young since then I took care of her as I also don't have any family in this world."

"Oh, now I understand your situation... You were so nice to adopt Lily as your child."

We then talk for a few minutes more and after that, we left the dance room as I say to Alyson that I need some rest as I was still tired from my journey.

"Okay, see you tomorrow then." she smile to us as she was waving her hand.

We went back to our room and immediately went to our bed. We are about to sleep but again there someone knocking the door.
