Fake Princess
ClXXXV Chapter
I looked at him who had let go of his embrace on the two men earlier, I turned my gaze to Haruki and also Izumi who turned to look at me with both of their eyes reddened...
Occasionally their palms rub their eyes and noses in turn. My footsteps moved involuntarily getting closer to them... My eyes were once again distracted by the Knights who were also staring at me headlong, some of them even bowed down with both palms covering their faces...
I looked back at my father, his arms were wide open to me. I raised both my arms around her body while I buried my face deeper and deeper into her chest...
"Thank you, thank you... The three of you are fine," he said in a trembling voice, joining me in feeling his fingers that were also shaking as he rubbed my head.
"Three of you go anywhere? Aren't you thinking about your father?" he said again as I felt the embrace in my body getting stronger.
"We didn't have a choice, Dad, we did it for you... Do you know what? My heart was also broken Dad, when I saw you crying at our funeral six years ago," I cried at him, the stronger my hand held onto the clothes he was wearing.
"How your father is going to be fine, my world seems to collapse upon hearing of the death of my three children. Go home... I don't know anymore, how many of those words were said..."
"You're getting bigger without my supervision making my heart ache, what am I supposed to say when I see your mothers again?"
"I would love to destroy the Palace, every time I walk down the Palace... Your shadow calls me Daddy always shows up, my heart breaks my daughter... Your father's heart is broken for failing to protect you..."
"For what reason, I lead a powerful Kingdom, if I alone cannot protect my three children" he sobbed.
"Sorry Dad, sorry... But we had no choice, I... I'd love to go home, too, but... I'm more afraid of losing you, Dad. Please... Please Father, forgive your daughter, for always... And always make you worry..."
"You're the man I love the most in the world, I'll do anything for you Dad. Because it's..."
"Are you guys okay? Are you eating well? Do you have enough money?" he said cutting my words, I put my head on his chest and nodded slowly.
"You two too, come here!" he said, I felt the hug he was doing stretch.
"I'm sorry Haruki is also Dad, I should have pulled both of my sisters back home... But I, instead of pushing them further away from you," came his voice that also shook, I felt something touching and embracing my waist.
"I'm also Dad, but I understand how it feels... But," Izumi's voice also sounded vibrating followed by something touching my head slowly.
"The three of you are fine, that's more than enough for me. Your height is even like your own father, Izumi," he said, along with a small laughing voice on the right and left of my body.
The embrace on my waist came off, followed by walking backwards I took a few steps. I looked back at my father's wet face as I lifted up and put both palms of my hands rubbing the cheeks to the bottom of his eyes...
"You lost a little bit of your weight Dad."
"My daughter who always cooks food suddenly disappears, how can I eat well" he said looking back at me.
"I'm gonna cook a lot of food for you, make sure Dad eats it all" I said, hugging his body.
"We met your future son-in-law in the middle of the trip, they said... If they take a detour, so I bring them to join me here."
"Groaned?"
"I'll tell you everything, but before that... Welcome to my Kingdom, my best friend King Takaoka Kudou," he said, pointing his palm at my father.
"Thank you for the invitation, King Bagaskara Pangestu," continued my father, his palm clasped the palm of King Bagaskara.
"All of you, please follow me" said King Bagaskara again, releasing his hand to my father as he turned he walked away.
I turned my gaze to Adinata who was bowing her body with her palm raised towards King Bagaskara who was walking in front of her. I let go of my arms to my father while I put my hands back in his left arm...
I bowed my feet in the footsteps of my father who walked behind King Bagaskara. Many times he kissed my hair, I looked at him who was looking straight ahead...
"Dad," I said, raising my head to look at him.
"What's wrong?" the reply looked at me.
"Nothing, I just remember... Long ago, when you held my hand... I had to raise my hand high for you to hold... But right now, I'm just gonna put my hand on your arm..."
"You walk first, you can pass through our right and left sides" I said, turning my gaze to those who also walk behind us.
"Why? We are also her two children," said Izumi stopped her steps, I stared at her who looked back at her.
"Do you want to take over Dad alone?"
"Dad," my whine, I turned my eyes to her again.
"Haruki, Izumi, give in a little to your sister," he said, looking at her who had her fingers massaging her forehead slowly.
"You guys are behind too, please walk first," he continued, turning my gaze to those who have walked through except my two brothers.
"Say, now it's just the four of us... Tell me, what do you want to tell Dad?" said Izumi, I turned my gaze to her who was standing with her arms crossed on her chest.
"What do you want to say?" I turned my eyes to her who was smiling at me.
"Dad, thank you for waiting for me..."
"Waiting for us."
"Waiting for us." I said following Haruki's voice.
"But Dad, before that... Can I ask you for help?" reveal it to him again.
