I Became a Guide For My Childhood Friend

Yernia was so surprised that she almost forgot to listen to Ivan.

“Right.
There’s a letter included, too.
I think it’s for you.”

A letter?

Yena opened the letter with trembling hands, and she heard Daisy’s voice vividly in her mind as she read it in silence.

Hi, Yernia.
Long time no see.
It’s been two years since I graduated from the academy at eighteen.
How have you been? I am sure you are surprised to hear about the wedding all of a sudden.

There were long lines of simple greetings and other random words, but the main subject finally came out after skimming through the nonsense.

I want you to catch my bouquet.
You’re still not annoyed by the past, are you?

So, she guessed it right.

This invitation letter was because Daisy misunderstood their perceived rivalry over this man.

And now, she was rubbing it in her face that she won the battle because she married the senior.

Daisy had many friends around her.

Nevertheless, the fact that she specifically asked for Yernia…

Of course,  there was a reason behind this—that old senior!

A senior that annoyed Yernia in the past until this present moment.

Yena had no interest in Daisy’s senior.

She had never given him a chance.

She had successfully avoided the senior by using his childhood friend, Cassian, as a shield to protect herself.

Daisy should have known.

Yet, to protect her heart, she didn’t want to admit that her senior liked her best friend, Yernia, first.

Now, whether it was Daisy or that senior, Yernia was indifferent to both of them.

But why did they have to make her life difficult?

“Are you going?”

“I’ll go.”

Even if she had no intention of accepting the bouquet, it would be food for Yernia to attend the wedding in many ways.

Many aristocrats would come to the wedding, and it would be advantageous to build some friendships.

Then she might be able to find her one true love.

Oh, that’s right.

To do that, she had to stop her upcoming marriage with Cassia first.

“Tell me, brother.
What did you just say earlier about preventing a marriage?”

Ivan’s words came to mind.

She almost forgot about them from all these talks about Daisy.

How does someone stop her marriage?

Is there a specific method for that?

She waited in anticipation, but Yernia did not hear it from Ivan again.

“Let’s just go get our dress today.”

This was all because of Seria’s interference.

Yernia had tried asking Ivan about it whenever she had a chance, but Seria kept interrupting them.

Finally, she threw her hands and gave up on the issue.

“Why are you here?”

She didn’t expect Cassian to be there when she arrived with her sister in the dress shops.

She found Cassian seated on the waiting sofa and flipping through the catalog.

Surprised at her query, he shot back, “Well, why do you think that I am in a women’s boutique?”

That was what Yernia was curious about.

The Capital is massive, and there are many tailor shops around the area.

Perhaps, she would consider it a coincidence if she saw him in the general boutique.

She would simply assume that Cassian was also here to buy more tailor-made clothes.

However, this particular dress shop that Yernia and Seria had visited only handles women’s clothes, so Cassian had no reason to be here.

“I’ve been waiting for you.”

Folding the catalog, he raised his head to meet her eyes.

“Me? Why? How?”

“Seria contacted me, so I came to the dress shop and waited for you here.
I was bored, and I wanted to see your face for the most part.”

“You are not allowed to do something mischievous.”

The reason why Cassian waited for Yena was apparent.

Cassian had a lousy hobby of following her around and teasing her until she went mad.

“That’s right.
I wouldn’t.
You and Seria are both women, so your points of view are different compared to a man like me.
I am offering to help you pick a dress.”

“No way!”

Cassian would pick something weird for her to wear on purpose.

It would be better if she would be the one to choose.

Having put down the catalog, he got up from the sofa and said.

“You said you were going to Philene’s wedding.”

“Yeah.
Do you know it too? It’s Daisy.”

“I know about that weird girl.”

“Hey, she’s not that much of a weirdo.”

“Why not? She used to send all the weird guys your way when she got the chance.”

Before Daisy and Yernia’s friendship fell apart,  Daisy was busy playing cupid with Yernia and other men when that senior of hers started flirting with her.

“How much I–”

“I would still be popular even without her efforts to match me up with the other guys.”

She finds it more annoying that Daisy has weaved the unfortunate situation.

Despite that, she was still popular, and she had no choice but to give her admirers a little attention.

Yernia was quite pretty with her glossy and thick pink hair, ivory white skin, and red lips akin to scattered petals.

That was how she saw it too.

It’s not that she wasn’t popular in her previous life.

It’s just that no one had dared to approach her because of her personality and her intense admiration for Cassian that she couldn’t bring herself to be interested in another.

“Are you bragging about your beauty in front of me?”

“—-I have no luck.”

However, Cassian was more popular than Jena.

Cassian was cold and indifferent enough to be misunderstood, and he didn’t have a good personality either.

His dark cat-like eyes seemed to stare at her even if they were still.

His sharp nose appeared somehow arrogant and mocking whenever he glanced down at her.

She could also feel the biting coldness whenever his lips were pressed into a tight line.

She didn’t think that the look of melancholy Cassian assumed would be this popular.

Cassian’s personality doesn’t match his appearance, but the female students still find him magnetic.

What’s so good about him? Anyway, girls have different tastes when it comes to men.
