The carriage laden with wind and snow vanished at the end of the streetlights, merging into the long night, leaving the clamor and warmth behind.
As she watched the silhouette gradually disappear at the end of the street, Erin's tumultuous emotions couldn't settle for a long time. Her right hand, holding the pocket watch, unconsciously pressed against her chest.
"Theresa..."
Walking over to the Princess, Theresa respectfully said.
"Is there anything you need, Princess?"
"No... I just... do I look strange right now?" Erin reached out to touch her face, as if checking the temperature of a fireplace.
Seeing that face lost of composure yet feigning calm, Theresa sighed helplessly and nodded.
"I beg your pardon, I'm afraid so."
"It seems I should control my emotions... Theresa, take a deep breath with me, we need to calm down."
"Yes, Princess." Though Theresa felt she had always been calm, she complied with her.
