A summer day.

You walk to the busy streets of ingary, the sun was shining bright as the wind flows to your hair. Walking towards a flower shop, you hold your umbrella to shield your body to the hot sunny day.

"Good morning, lady Y/N! You look wonderful today." A man in his mid sixties greeted you with a smile. He owns a bakery next to the flower shop.

"Thank you, Mr. Holmes! Have a great day!" You curt at him gracefully as he lifted up his bonette. Turning down your umbrella the bell rings as you opened the door.

"Ah, our beautiful lady Y/N!" A woman named Eliza came in to view as she rushed towards you. "Oh enough with the flattery, really. It makes me demure." You say making Eliza smiles. Eliza is a 40 year old woman who happens to be the owner of the flower shop. You in the other hand always come here to pick up some flowers and decorate them to your house.

Eliza loves how gracefully you are, you are just like your mother. The way you walk and the way you talk. It's like she was talking to a goddess like you. So appealing.

"We have already fresh flowers that were picked up yesterday. You can look at them."

"Oh they are lovely. Yesterday my rose withered, so I got to buy another one. Is there petunia?" You ask, looking at the various kinds of flower.

They were freshly picked from the garden. Itw was beautiful, bright colors and full bloomed. You loved the smell of flowers and they are wonderful. "Lilies are beautiful. So white and elegant, don't you think?"

"Oh yes dear. Lilies most commonly mean devotion or purity." Eliza says as he picks one. "This flower suits you, lady Y/N."

The flower is truely beatiful.

"Sure, I'll get one of these and petunias. I want to give it to Sophie and Lettie."

"Oh your little sisters. How wonderful. Your sister Sophie made this hats for me. Isn't it beautiful?" You looked at the emerald green hat that designed in a plastic flower and leaves on the side. "Yes it suits you." You say, smiling at her.

"Very well, wait for a few moment while a wrap this up." You nodded as you looked into the  window and saw soldiers marching down towards the castle. Many people waved their hats and handkerchief as the party started. You think that Lettie might get tired after the party, after all many people will celebrate today.

You also saw war tanks and airship. It seems that another has started since the lost of the prince. You wonder, if the prince is still alive. Will he stop this fiasco?

"Lady Y/N?" You went back to reality when you looked back and saw Eliza already warapped the petunias and lilies into a beautiful wrappers. "You seem to be thinking deeply."

"Oh it's nothing, I was just looking at the window."

"Oh yes, I seen soldiers marching. It must be a celebration."

You grabbed the flowers and placed them in your basket. As you said your fairwell to her and headed at the Café that Lettie was working.

You are already 21 and you haven't got married. Of course you hated the idea of marriage. It's just not the right time. But your mother was too excited after you turn 20. She wanted you to marry a rich man that lives in the Royal City. Of course you, declined it.

It's not love anymore if you just wanted to marry a man because of his riches.

You just wanted to know the concept of love. To be loved by someone, but it can wait. You don't want to rush things first.

Your a big sister, it means you have to help your siblings first. As a caring sister you are, you will always protect them no matter what the cost. Because you love them

Walking inside the café, the staff greeted you as the other customer (men) called you with compliments. "Good afternoon, lady Y/N! Looking good with your dress today!" He said, winking at you. You just looked at them uninterested but you show them a smile.

You don't want them to think you hated being complimented. It just makes you shy. You don't like the attention but your beauty just comes out on it's own.

"Hello lady Y/N, I assume you're looking for Lettie?" A man who has a goofy mustache said. You smiled at him making him slightly blushing. "Yes I am, I want to give her this petunia. Can I see her?" You said looking behind the man's back as you noticed that Lottie was not there.

"Oh she's in the kitchen with your sister, Sophie. I heard that Sophie flew to the veranda. Isn't that crazy?" He stiffle a laugh as you were shocked, your sister flew at the veranda? Quite fascinating. "Oh well, I'll take you to your sisters." He said as he leads the way to the kitchen.

"Oh thank you."

"Hi lady Y/N. Looking good as always." Another man compliments as you chuckle and waved at them as they all sigh lovingly.

Going to the kitchen. You saw many stacks of cocao beans and a small kitchen that smells like pastry and chocolate.

You heard two familiar voice through the boxes, you couldn't contain your smile as you rushed towards your sister and saw them talking to each other.

Lettie was the first one to notice you, since she was facing to the exit as her eyes widen and blinks. You widen both of your arms to gesture a hug as Lettie squeal happily and engulf with a warm hug. Sophie looked at you with a shocked expression standing up and followed her sister.

"Oh dear, Y/N it's youuuu~ Oh I missed you so much! How's the trip in London?!" Lettie says, her eyes beams with joy as it sparkles with excitement. "Well, mother and I was buying clothes and jewelries. Not that fun anyways. But I missed you both!" You pull Sophie towards as she grunt andher head went to your chest as she hugged you.

"Good thing your back, Y/N. You still look stunning." Sophie praise making you frown slightly.

The three of you sat on the boxes as you spoke.

"Oh please, I have enough hearing about compliments. Let's talk about you. I heard a man said that you flew from the veranda." You laugh as Sophie smiled like she was lovesick again. Lettie noticed this as she sulk and said. "Howl is the who flew her here. And now look, your sister become lovesick because of that man."

Howl? You heard that name many times to Eliza. Who is a wizard who collects womens heart whenever they fall in love with him. You don't believe that kind of rumor unless you seen it yourself. And you didn't know what he even looks like.

But you can see Sophie smiles as she look so dazed. Remembering the time she was saved by that man. But you smiled, she was finally in love.

"But you can't just fall in love with him. You have to know him first." You said as Lettie nodded in agreement. Sophie looks at the two of you confused as she shook her head. "W-Who said I'm falling in love? It's not that. I just found him charming."

"Look, Y/N. I'm worried about her."

Sophie softly scoff at her younger sister as she stood up. "Well, I'll be going home now. It's a relief that you're doing well."

"Well, I guess I'll be going too then."

--

The three of you headed outside the café when a man greeted you and Lettie. Suddenly Lettie hold Sophie's hand, her expression quickly changed. "Listen, Sophie. Are you going to spend your whole life in that shop?" Lettie says, looking at her older sister. Sophie sighs. She always loved that shop, it was your father's. He seen Sophie doing great at making hat's so that's why he picked his middle child to be the owner of that shop which you were happy.

"Of course, that shop was special to father. Beside he's the one who gave me the shop." Lettie shakes her head, Sophie looks at her confused.  "That's not what I meant... Are you sure you want to be a hatter?"

"Well I..." Sophie stopped talking when sh heard the delivery man said goodbye to Lettie. Sophie just sighed once again. "We'll be on our way."

"Oh I almost forgot." You smiled, giving the petunias to Lettie making her gasp with joy. "These look lovely, thanks Y/N." She said as she smell the petunia, you smiled and gave her a hug. "Remember to always take care of yourself. And don't stay up late. It's dangerous."

"Please stop doing that, I'm already 18."

"I'm just reminding you. Well we're off. I love you Lettie." You kissed her cheeks and softly caressed it. You waved at her as she shouted. "Sophie, Y/N! You've got to look out for youselves!"

"Of course we will!"

You saw Lettie finally going back to her work. Both you and Sophie stayed quite. A frown on her lips.

"You don't have to think about it, Sophie. You can still fall in love while being a htter you know." You said, Sophie smiles a little, she finds comfort in your voice. It was soothing, like a mother hums a lullaby.

"Howl is only after pretty girls, example; you."

You scoffed at her, crossing your arm under your chest. "Well, too bad you are pretty like Lettie and me. Don't down yourself, geez. Father will be upset if he hears you talking nonsense about yourself."

"Well, I can't argue with that. It's just... I never seen a handsome man like Howl. It felt magical. But I know I wonts see him again." You slightly frown but you hold her waist as pull her next to you. "Don't worry Sophie, I'm sure you'll see him again. And I'll get to meet him too."

"Do you think I'm pretty?"

"Of course! I'll repeat that to you many times so that it. Will. Be. In your. Head." You said poking her forehead softly as she giggles at you.

"Let's just go home."
