The Villainess who Only Had 100 Days to Live Had Fun Every Day

lumsy.”

I diagonally cut the end of the thread and handed it over to him once again.

Ugh… it would have been much faster if I were to do it myself… When will he be able to thread a needle?

Perhaps because he was embarrassed over learning something from me, our meetings were always early in the morning.
I wasn’t good at getting up early, so I’d very much have preferred after school… But he seemed to be busy, so I was begged to come about 10-20 minutes earlier in the morning.
I couldn’t say no when such a pretty person was bowing to me…

…Well, let’s think of them as days where I practice my patience…

However, it had been three days.
It had been three days since he started practicing how to thread a needle.
Then, we had to take a break the following week due to there being a ball.
During that time, he went back to square zero.
Thus, we spent two more days of learning how to thread a needle again… in no time at all, we became friends.

Still, for some reason, he was adamant about me not doing anything! I couldn’t even help him thread the needle! It’d be overwhelmingly faster if I remade everything from scratch.
If it was something like that stuffed toy, I could make one with my eyes closed during class!

Even if it was a prince’s request, I was fed up with it.
So, I gently suggested that I make it instead—

—but he shook his head with a tearful expression.

“I can’t.
This is… something that Luche gave me.
I want to fix it myself.”

Luche…? I felt like I had heard of that name from somewhere.
Who was it again?

I see…

Does he have a girlfriend? …Well, that’s only to be expected.
After all, he’s this handsome.
It would be weird if he didn’t have a lover or two…

When I was a little depressed about the fact, he asked me.

“By the way, you aren’t wearing leather shoes today?”

“Oh!?”

I couldn’t help but yelp.

Shoes… shoes…

When I changed into my athletic shoes during P.E class yesterday, my leather shoes were hidden.
I couldn’t find them.
I would need some time before I could get a new pair, for it was custom.
If I were to explain the situation to my parents, I might be able to quickly obtain a new set, but I refused to tell them about the bullying.
As such, I had no choice but to go to the academy with these one.

I laughed like a fool.

“Haha~ I seem to have lost my leather shoes…”

“…Those aren’t something you normally lose, do you?”

“I know, right? How stupid of me!”

My grades were bad.
I was bad at studying.
It was a fact—I was an idiot, despite being a scholar’s daughter.
No wonder I was bullied.

I was about to laugh and shrug it off, but for some reason the prince nodded.

“Alright.”

“Did you finally understand how to do it?”

“No, I’ll try to stay by you as much as possible for the time being.”

“What?!”

B, but why?! Why would you do that?!

When I was at a loss, the bell rang.
It was about time for a lot of people to leave academy.
Hence, we would separate there.
But he didn’t get up from the flower bed.

“…Shouldn’t you return to your classroom?”

“I’ll stay with Lumiere until the very last minute.
The hostility should be reduced a little.”

“…Did I tell you my name?”

“I usually look into the names of those who help me.
I’m sorry for not calling you by your name before.”

Then, he stood up and extended his hand with an utterly dazzling smile.

“My name is Sazanjill Lukino Lapisenta, once again, please take care of me.”

***T/N: So… it’s a mere act??? Did he then fall in love with her along the way??? Oh man, I’m not ready for the pain.
