Beautiful Thief And The King
You're Not Alone

A table filled with drinks was in the garden behind Freya's house. Although not too big but the place is enough for them to have fun because tonight they want to celebrate their success in some way.

Not only celebrating their success in stealing but tonight Freya also wants to hold a welcome for Norman who suddenly became his partner even though they are both strangers who only know each other's names. Whoever the man is, he doesn't care which matters favourably.

Tonight the sky was so clear, the weather was so supportive. A grill that was purchased suddenly was in place so some tools were needed. Cristiana was stabbing the meat and vegetables to be burned, while Freya lit the embers. Norman was in charge of lifting a few chairs, really a commoner's job because usually he didn't have to bother like that because his guards were going to do it but now, he was indeed disguised as a commoner.

"Let me" said Norman, who was done with his chair and the man was standing by Freya's side.

"No need, it's almost done!" Freya.

"It's a man's job, don't let your hands burn!"

"Thanks, I don't have to worry because I'm used to this."

"Yeah, but you're still a woman so let me do it."

"Do you have a family, Norman?" ask Freya. He asked so for trite talk without intending to pry into Norman's personal life. After all, they can talk while doing what they are doing right now so as not to be boring.

"Of course, everyone has a family. What about you, Freya? Are you an only child?"

"That's how it is, if I have a brother then I've already committed theft with that brother!"

"You're right!" said Norman.

"Miss, this is the meat but I'm sorry I can't come" said Cristina who brought the meat and vegetables she had skewered.

"Why?" ask Freya.

"I feel a little unwell Miss, so I want to rest for a while," Cristina replied reasoned that she did not want to interfere with Freya's relationship with Norman. Somehow he really wished they were both getting closer and having a special relationship because he felt they were both very compatible.

Does he have to be a cupid to unite Norman and Freya? It seems like she had to do it for the lady to have a partner because from a long time ago she had never been in a relationship with any man due to her love of history so that her time was only spent in the research and now, she was in a relationship with him, he must become a criminal in order to find his father and retrieve his stolen father's belongings.

"Well, then go get some rest. I'll bring it to you when it's ripe" said Freya.

"No need, Miss. I want to sleep so there's no need to bring it for me" Cristina refused.

"You sure?"

"Of course, enjoy the time of the two of you," Cristina stepped away. May it not rain, may the weather and the beautiful sky support the togetherness of the two of them and he also hopes that after tonight they both get closer.

"Maybe your waitress isn't feeling well because she's worried about you!" said Norman.

"It looks like only the two of us are going to have fun!" Freya.

"Doubt?" Norman looked.

Norman helped her do just that and after all was done, they took her to a table where many drinks were on it. Even if it's just the two of you, it seems pretty fun.

"Only the two of us, are you sure you're gonna spend all this?" ask Norman.

"Of course, Norman. Tonight, we celebrate a few things and take this as an expression of my gratitude to you for the help you gave me and tonight I also want to welcome you as my partner."

"Well, what if we make a game, Freya? I want to challenge an archaeologist like yourself to play a puzzle" Norman asked.

"What are you going to bet on in this game?"

"Just make it easy, the loser has to drink a glass. I don't think you'll mind!"

"Of course, for starters!" Freya raised the glass that had been filled, Norman did it and after that the glass was stirred until it sounded. Drinks are sipped until they run out, they start playing while enjoying the food.

Cristina peeked out from behind the window, only this time she saw Freya so happy and able to laugh freely. Honestly, he was very curious about what they were talking about, but if he appeared suddenly, then he could interfere with the time they were together.

"Wait, did you say she was riding a bebegig doll?" freya asked in between her laughter.

"Yeah, I should've hung it up that time," surely she was talking about her sister's silly best friend.

Freya took a sip of her drink and laughed, as if she was drunk but she still did not stop for a drink. Norman did not prevent it because they intended to have fun. Although he had been drinking a lot but Norman had not been seen drunk even Freya had fallen first due to sipping so many drinks and he was already seen unconscious again.

"You really don't drink, Freya!" one bottle of drink was sipped until it ran out and after that Norman moved because he was going to hold Freya inside.

Cristina was still peeking, she did not prevent it at all when Norman brought Freya into the room. He was sure something would happen soon because he knew Freya would change while drunk and sure enough, Freya would change, Norman is shocked when Freya kisses him suddenly as he is about to lay Freya on the bed.

"Freya?" Norman was about to get rid of Freya's hand that was coiling around her neck but Freya actually hugged her tightly even Freya endlessly kissed her face.

"Freya!" Norman shouted.

"Dad" suddenly Freya cried. All of this happened because of drunkenness.

Norman had already managed to release Freya's two hands that were coiled around her neck. Freya was still crying, she was really drunk.

"All I have is Daddy so don't leave me," Freya's tears flowed more and more so making the feeling of compassion in Norman's heart grow.

"Stupid, you're not alone right now!" Norman lay down on Freya's side and hugged her. Freya's tears were slowly wiped away, "I'll accompany you until we find your father's whereabouts. Rest assured he's alive and we'll find him!" now he was actually entangled further and further with the thief. Not only must he be a fugitive with Freya but now he is increasingly challenged with the mission of finding Freya's father.

Norman unceasingly rubbed Freya's back, Freya's cry gradually inaudible because she was already asleep. Not only rubbed Freya's back, his hands were unceasingly rubbing Freya's face and wiping away her remaining tears. Strange, he felt a little strange. Unwilling to think of anything else, Norman chose to sleep while hugging Freya.

Out there, Cristina steals the listen but there's no sound. Looks like it worked out, let's hope their relationship really gets closer after tonight. Cristina left while jumping up and down, the plan worked. Just prepare an earmuff so that he does not hear Freya's screams tomorrow morning and he will pretend not to know but that night, too, no one knew if an old man with a body filled with tattoos, had already scattered his men to search for the whereabouts of Freya and Norman.

He wants to capture alive the man who killed his son and in fact, the old man knows who the perpetrator who kidnapped Freya's father even he wants a precious stone hidden by Freya's father.
