Chapter 24: The Unhidden Secret

When the class hour was over and the sound of the bells coming home rang out loud. I decided to peek at my future Prince candidate. If maybe his break time wasn't there then he should be there by now. I began to hide in the highest bushes and certainly not thorny.

Eheee was right as I thought, if only there was a camera I would have photographed it from here many times until I was satisfied. I saw him play his sword lightly and very proficiently, unlike me who was amateur and anyone either friend or foe seemed to be slashed. The creature in front of me is so cool in my eyes that it makes my heart sing and my eyes don't blink at all, it's too bad for me to miss every moment of fun, even if it's only half a second.

"I know you're there! So out!" Tell Prince Shun rudely while pointing his weapon at me.

I flinched then fell from where I was squatting earlier in shock by his exclamation. Duhh her face is cute but her level is not cute. My inner.

"Hehehehe" I got up from where I fell behind this bush with a whimper.

Prince Shun let out a long sigh upon seeing me."I don't know what you mean but hiding like that for a peek is something disrespectful" Prince Shun explained as he walked up to me and snuck the tip of my nose.

"What an impolite thing! I will see my future husband" said my manyun while holding my nose which had just been the target of his annoyance to me.

Fortunately, I did not go inside. My inner. He felt relieved when he finished checking it.

"What is true? When did I say yes?" The refutation of Prince Shun was as if challenging me to argue with him.

"Don't the prince accept her right then and there?" Timpal Erdwan instantly while nudging Prince Shun's shoulder hard.

"Fuckin' thick!" I closed my eyes and folded my hands in front of my chest.

"Aghhh I don't remember her" replied Prince Shun later. He clucked in annoyance at being nudged by Erdwan just now.

"Don't tell me the prince wants to cancel it?" I said while looking at him.

"It could be" he replied without a second thought. It really struck my little heart.💔

"HUWWAAAAAA" I pretended to cry.

"Stop it, you're noisy, I'm training right now." said Prince Shun softly as he put his index finger on my tiny lips.

After hearing that I felt guilty and lowered my gaze from her. "Ahh sorry..."

"Prince won't marry a spoiled woman like you" said Erdwan who managed to get my attention distracted.

"Ehhh why? haven't we promised???"

"The end of the Prince is _"Prince Shun pointed his sword right at Erdwan's neck so that his words stopped.

Actually what is with Prince Shun, his attitude is very strange today against me and now to Erdwan who is none other than his spirit. I looked at Prince Shun with a look of wonder. While Erdwan finally raised both hands as a sign he gave up and did not continue his words.

I actually knew what Erdwan was going to say earlier, that Prince Shun Errent was a crown prince who would become the next king in the kingdom of Arrenthia. That's why I shouldn't be spoiled like that if I want to be with him. But his actions against Erdwan were too excessive. Does he want to keep it a secret from me? Ahh I don't care.

Prince Shun seemed to signal that Erdwan was silent and did not talk.

"Prince... Actually, do you hate me?!" I asked to break the silence that was created between us.

Prince Shun turned his gaze towards me for a moment."No" he replied, then turned back from me.

"Then why are you hiding such an important secret from me..?" I asked him not because he wanted to know that he would become a king, but because he was worried that he had a shorter life than me but he did not tell me.

For a moment he looked surprised and took a deep breath, then looked at me again "I don't really recognize you, so I don't trust you too much" he replied with a brief smile. I know it's true and I don't know why, but it really offends me and makes me feel really upset.

I gestured for him to slightly bow and Prince Shun complied without resisting.

Bukkk!!!

I hit my head with his head because I was so upset. Be ill... Well I feel it, it's in my head at the moment.

"Why_ when I trust you Prince!"

"Treusso?" He said as he grimaced holding his eel.

The Prince's current behavior really sucks. I came here because I was worried and cared about him.

I slowly approached her and immediately hugged her tightly. I know it's disrespectful, if he even wants to kill me now, I don't mind, rather than having to watch him vanish from before me.

"?!!!"

"Stay like this, please don't leave me" I said as I buried my face in her clothes.

My brother used to tell me to stay away from him but I did the opposite. What a fool I am, now everything is done and I like it more and more.

Prince Shun dropped his sword on the ground and began to return my embrace by bowing down a bit of his body.

"My little leca why?' she asked slowly while stroking my hair gently.

"The prince is a saint?"I asked after mastering myself from my imagination.

"Ahhh sure" he replied casually. Ehhh why did he answer it casually!. I thought in wonder.

"Heehh why did the Prince answer that favorably?!"

"Emang why?"

I took a long breath.

"Prince, aren't you afraid that your age is shorter than ordinary people?"

He flinched then smiled obliquely."No, after all, I was destined to protect a lot of people, of course being a Saint was the happiest thing for me"

The prince then looked at me with his deathly smile again. Is there a woman like this who doesn't like her? I also hugged him tightly back.

"Prince, you'll never leave me, will you?"

"....."

Why didn't he answer my question this time? Is he not sure he can continue to be with me in the future?

"Uhuk uhuk uhuk, how long have I been a mosquito here?" Erdwan cleared his throat, soon after making the Prince reflect off his embrace, and turned his face in shame. Whereas I could only silently try to digest the intent from Erdwan's words.

"AHHH APAAA... WHAT I JUST DID! You stupid leca! Oh my face I want to put it where it is now! Aghhhhh" muttered that I felt wrong. I'm sure now my face is as red as a tomato and as flat as a crab shell.

"Here" said the Prince with a plain face pointing towards the clothes used to immerse my face earlier.

Ohh my god.keep me! I no longer deserve to live, because I have no shame. Inner frustration.

"Yoo little princess, don't you want to marry with your brother?" Tempt Erdwan at me while tightly grasping my left palm.

"DIE YOU SANAAA!!!!" I shouted because I was ashamed to have been caught by him for a long time. I was reckless, hugging like Teletubbies in front of that guy. While Erdwan only laughed loudly while holding his stomach.

"Ehem...I will continue my practice that was interrupted earlier" said my Prince as he stared briefly at me. I could only puff my cheeks because I still felt so upset at Erdwan.

The prince just laughed a little and then continued his training with Erdwan."hey hey Prince don't attack me all of a sudden! I haven't been wasted!" Erdwan said as he continued to try to avoid Prince Shun's attacks that came in droves.

Haha rasain! I said in my heart. I just watched them and continued to encourage Prince Shun while sitting under the cherry tree whose crown of flowers continuously fell on my body.

A few days passed, I always visited the place and saw Prince Shun practicing swords or other things there. Sometimes we sit next to each other and tell a lot of things that are not important at all.I feel closer to him and more comfortable if he is at his side. I don't want days like this to end so quickly and time will separate us.

I remember everything that happened today and yesterday without missing a single moment, everything is recorded clearly in the memory stored in my mind. His smile, his words and his always kind and friendly nature towards me were also the people who were nearby. That's the thing I like most about him.

But I sometimes hate a sentence that he makes. " Axa, maybe you just admire me right now, someday when you have someone you love, I will definitely support you, so you don't have to get hung up on that weird promise we made... I don't want you to lose someone important in your life just because you keep thinking about me".

His words seemed to make me feel, he was not confident, sometimes he also kept his distance from me for no apparent reason... What exactly is the reason he did that?. Just remembering it made me smile because he spoke so pitifully like that.
