'Is he believing me? I don´t understand his mimic. Can I believe his words?' Shit, accidentally read her mind.

"So, now that you told me this and ate up, what do you want to do now?" I need to start this day I reserved for her somewhere.

"Oh, I know! Daisy has a garden inside the castle! I wanna see the plants she has!"

"You little child."

"There´s nothing wrong with being childish sometimes."

"I guess you have a point."

Me saying that makes her smile. "Now let´s go!"

After getting lost first, we find the garden. It is inside, but is not only gigantic, but even looks… natural. It looks like it was taken straight out of a forest. I can´t express how amazing it looks.

"Do you like it?"

"What?"

"Hello." Daisy and Luigi surprise us from behind. "So, Peach, how are you?"

"Me? I´m fine. I just ate breakfast."

"Please don´t do something like this again." I didn´t expect Luigi to be that affected. He´s not a sociopath, but he´s either crying or not caring in such situations. Now he´s just sad.

"Don´t worry. But could you please leave Mario and me alone? Mario and I want to spend time alone."

"Aw, man. I wanted to give you all a tour!"

'Take care, bro.'

I nod.

Later on, after Luigi and Daisy leave, we walk further around. "Mario?"

"What is it?"

"I love this place."

"And why?"

"It… reminds me of someone."

"Could you tell me who it is?"

"Um… could we sit down first?"

"What?"

Peach looks at a bench. "Please?"

"Sure, we did around a while. Relaxing a bit will feel good."

After sitting down, Peach immediately starts talking. "You know, back when my mom was alive, we also had an amazing garden. It was gigantic. We had all kinds of plants in there."

"I see. But doesn´t every castle or palace or whatever have a garden?"

"Yes, but my mom started the one of the mushroom kingdom. We we´re focusing on modernizing the country and didn´t have time for a garden. But she always kept the nature in her mind."

"Could you… tell me the story of how your mom created the garden?"

"Sure, but it´s not that exiting."

"I don´t care. I want to know more about you."

Peach chuckles. It´s nice to see that. "Alright, I´ll start at the beginning.

~Flashback~

"And why should we do that, Elizabeth?"

"Come on, a royal garden would be amazing, Harry!"

"Yes, dad! Please!"

"Not you too, Peach…"

"Yes me too! Mom and I want a garden!"

King Toadstool (Harry) laughs a bit. "I just can´t turn you down."

"Hooray, mom! We won!"

"Can somebody get an architect here?" Harry looks back at his wife. "But you´ll have to plan everything out."

"Don´t worry about that. Peach, let´s go!"

~End of Flashback~

"I understand. You weren´t kidding when you said that it wasn´t that exciting. But it was still nice to hear. But I have another question. What happened to the garden? I didn´t see it once in the last 2 years I lived close to the castle."

"After my mom died, my dad didn´t want to keep the garden. So the plants were brought somewhere else and my mom was buried with them at the royal graveyard."

"And… when was that?"

"4 years ago. And then my dad told me to take more responsibility for the kingdom."

"I see. You know, personally, we´re not different."

"How do you mean that?"

"We went to the same places. We lost the same things and got the same things. We even have the same mindset on the world. But there was one important difference. We grew up in different places with different people."

"Well, duh. I knew that too."

"Oh. Well, I shouldn´t always try to act philosophical."

"Yes, you shouldn´t."
