"The Engagement Ceded to My Sister" ——Every time it was told that way, the countess's daughter Irene felt something was off. She hadn't ceded it. She had simply chosen to "step down" of her own volition. A fiancé who was kind but indecisive. A relationship where he left all decisions to her to avoid making waves. If she married him as things stood, she could see a future where only she would decide and bear the burden. So Irene broke off the engagement. Not for her sister's sake, nor for the sake of a beautiful story. Because that seat was not meant to be hers in life. However, high society sought to consume her choice as "the self-sacrifice of a kind older sister." To that evaluation, Irene made her objection clear. "I ceded the seat. I did not impose it upon her." What she had ceded was not the engagement itself, but rather the "obligation to remain."
