Fake Princess
DlxvIII Chapter
“My waist,” I groaned slowly while putting my face on the dressing table.
I raised my head again, glancing at him who was wearing clothes with a face of sumringah. I tightly clenched my hands while directing my gaze towards the mirror, “Zeki, help me to pick up the scarf in the closet,” I said, I slightly raised my neck while groping it slowly.
“But now is not winter, is it?”
I turned my head with a sharp look at him, “this is indeed not winter. But if all these marks are seen by them, my life will be exhausted,” I said angrily as I pointed towards my neck and shoulders.
He walked over with a brown-colored scarf in his hand. Zeki crouched while wrapping the scarf around my neck, “why should I be ashamed, that as a form of cin-” flavor
I smiled with his mouth shut before Zeki finished his words, “aku, really don't want to hear those words at the moment. Don't you know, now my body feels heavy to move,” I said, Zeki's head nodding with his unmoved look at me.
I sighed by raising both hands tidying the scarf wrapped around my neck. I turned my gaze towards her who had stood up by raising her right hand, I grabbed her hand while slowly my body stood beside her. Zeki slowly led me along, occasionally we stopped with me taking a deep breath before our footsteps resumed.
Both me and Zeki bowed their bodies, paying their respects to Father and also to Mother who accidentally passed us in the hallway of the Palace. “Daddy hear if you're sick? How are you doing?”
I glanced at Zeki who was just sitting beside me without taking out a word, “I have only a slight fever. But now it's getting better,” I replied with a smile returning Dad's gaze.
Dad patted Zeki on the shoulder, “you take very good care of my daughter, Zeki. Dad thanks you,” Dad said as he turned around, stepping foot in with Mom leaving us.
“My father was right, you took very good care of me. Very well,” I said as I put my left foot on his leg while I firmly planted it while my eyes were still staring at my parents.
“No need to thank until like that. Because I too, feel very happy to take care of my wife to recover from her pain.”
“I'm so hungry. Hurry up, Father and Mother have gone further and further,” he said throwing a glance as I glanced sharply at him.
I sighed, our footsteps continuing to enter the dining room. I walked up to the chair near Haruki, sitting on the chair with Zeki also sitting on the chair beside me. “How are you doing?”
I turned my head and nodded my head at him, “I'm fine, nii-chan,” I said, my head nodding again as my eyes glanced unintentionally at Izumi.
“I've asked the Palace chef to cook you some soup, eat it and finish it all!” My head again nodded slowly when Haruki's voice knocked back on my ears.
“Daddy, chances are ... Tomorrow I'll be back to Yadgar.”
“Secap it?” my exchange that suddenly cut their words, “you said nothing to me about this,” connect me back by looking at him.
“I just received news from Akash this morning, the news said if there is a problem at the border Yadgar. Akash could not go check on her, as he himself had to guard the Palace. So, inevitably I have to go home soon to take care of it,” he said who gently rubbed my hair.
“Is there anything you need before you go home?”
“Can I borrow some horses for my Knight, Father? Because Yadgar is not too far from Metin, so some Kesatriaku do not carry horses .. This is very different, with the distance between Sora and Yadgar,” he said, it was obvious that an unpleasant feeling was painted on his face.
“You think so much of your Knight,” the father who is still staring at him.
He raised his face again when my hand grabbed and then firmly grasped his palm. “Alright, Father will order them to prepare it.”
“Thank you, Dad,” he continued with a nod of the head from my father.
___________.
“You sure, don't want to bring anything? Food or clothes?” I asked who glanced at him.
He walks by laying his head on my thighs, “no need to prepare anything. All the clothes in the closet, are the clothes that Dad has prepared. I'll leave it alone, so that when we visit back here .. I just wear it,” she said, she turned around until her face was staring at me.
"Do you know, there's something that really bothers my mind right now" he said with a long look at me.
"What's that?" I asked again followed by my finger that moved to open her hair pigtail.
"How come, a woman leading the war, almost ran away like last night."
I looked at him with one hand, grabbed a pillow and smacked it into his face, "every war, I was always afraid. Don't you know that?" reveal me by pulling back the pillow that hit his face.
"If my two brothers hadn't supported me all this time, I would ... You cannot win a single war. After all, these two things are clearly very different-"
"When the war, I only gave orders with some great Knights who were assigned to become shields. I, can already imagine the pain I would receive if one of the weapons hurt me."
"While we're doing, this is really my first time. Exactly as said, the pain is difficult to explain-"
"Then?" he cut my words.
"Then?" I asked back Zeki's gaze without making a sound.
I raised my hand firmly grasping the clothes he was wearing, "i enjoyed it too" I said slowly, throwing my warming face to the side.
"At least, I ... Now I can understand why sometimes a family has many children" I said, still throwing my eyes off him.
I raised my hand as she moved up to kiss my cheek before lying back straight with a pillow propping her head up, "i'm so grateful, when you can tell me anything without being as awkward as now, Sachi."
"Sleep, you must be tired, right?" he raised his right arm to the side.
I sighed softly by laying my head on his arm. My lips were still clenched by staring at him who had closed both eyes.
Why is he so quiet today?
I raised one hand to hug his body, join me put my face on his body with an occasional glance towards his face that was still closed. Is this just my feeling or what? Wh why? I feel like tonight is disappointing.
