The gentle touch from her cheek brought the unique fragrance of gardenias that is characteristic of girls, mixed with a few hints of the intense scent of roses. Cecilia Vaughn suddenly froze.
She had grown up without ever being kissed by the same gender!
Uh... maybe her mother kissed her when she was little, but she couldn't really remember it.
Even Cecilia Vaughn's best friend Mona Summers wouldn't kiss her like this, though hugs were inevitable.
Cecilia Vaughn looked up incredulously. She wasn't particularly fond of close contact with strangers, but this Lilith Judy lady had an exquisite and generous face, coupled with a straightforward personality, so Cecilia Vaughn didn't think it was odd.
"Uh… You don't actually need to thank me like this."
Perhaps it was because the cultural traditions between Veridia and Vesperia were different? Maybe it was trendy for foreigners to express gratitude in this way?
