I walked small towards my house with a blank look. Ranaa seemed to follow my steps from behind. We were silent and did not speak.
I'm still thinking about my dream last night that's still ringing in my head.
"ehemm" ranaa cleared behind me.
I stopped my steps.
"are we really okay?" said it.
I turned around and looked at him right behind me.
"I'm not doing well, so what do you want now?" my cetus.
"ahhh I'm really worried then. were you lonely all day yesterday?" ranaa said while chuckling.
I just put my lips up while my eyes were twitching.
"tell me then what makes you bad? can I hear it?" Goda ranaa's.
I just laughed a little with a look in the other direction, but the eyes found us both, the woman saw me who was with the shutter.
we looked at each other, I looked at him sharply and stopped my laughter. Ranaa turned her head back and looked at her who was looking at the two of us.
"i know the problem" said Ranaa again.
my eyes glanced at ranaa.
"are you jealous of Calandra?" continued.
"What makes me jealous of a woman no prettier than me" I said, trying to boast.
Ranaa gave a small laugh as her fist covered her pink lips.
"what makes you say that?"
"yes, because I'm beautiful"
"hahaha" this time Ranaa laughed loudly.
I laughed and patted Ranaa on the shoulder.
Ranaa turned her head back to see if calandra was still watching us or not.
"he's gone" said ranaa.
I just stuck my eyes and turned around to continue on the road.
But ranaa remained standing in place, I turned back to her. I took a slow breath and walked backwards.now my steps are trying to adjust the shutter steps.
ranaa grasped my hand.His eyebrows beckoned me to continue the path.
"Ranaa"
"hm"
"as long as I've been with you, you haven't told me how you are in this place.is it true that the way you get lost is the same as me"
ranaa smiled as she swung - swing our grasp.My eyes looked down and continued to see the face of Ranaa.
"I was lost in the woods too"
"then?"
"i met afsoon"
we have reached home.
"Did you mind stopping by for a minute?" say
ranaa was silent as if thinking something.
"it seems like next time, I have business in the palace" he said.
"hmm okay, thanks for driving me" I smiled.
ranaa just nodded and smiled as well.

It's been 3 days I didn't meet arham. I was worried if I made a mistake on him. Even though yesterday-yesterday I was disappointed because he also did not come to me to just say goodbye.
I fell silent while playing the flowers in the vase filled with water from the arham that had not yet withered.
"when he gave it a long time ago, did all the flowers that have been cut will last all this time" I said to myself.
I was bored in this place and decided to get out. I prepared myself then walked towards the exit and walked over.
my steps were slow while watching the flowers blooming around the hill not far from my house.
until my steps took me to a place that was foreign to me, but I thought I was calm as if I would find my way home.
this place looks like a deserted inhabitant, brown board house with varnish in every corner there is a fire axis, maybe this is for lighting. there is not a single person who drifted here.
I kept walking while looking around in case someone else was here.
until I heard something from a place not far from where I was standing, I continued to search for the sound until I tried to penetrate the grass that was creeping thickly, and I found something that made me speechless in shock. I saw a group of people who were my age and younger and even older than me.
I still kept silent while looking at those who worked forcibly with the royal uniform in mind. for men they dig something on the ground and for women they lift baskets that I don't know what they are.
something seemed to be approaching me, I was closed while adjusting my breath.
his hand touched my shoulder.
my eyes were open, my body was tense.I tried to turn my body but it felt very stiff.
his hand tried to forcibly flip me. I looked down in fear.
"open your eyes" the voice belonged to a woman.
I began to open my eyes slowly, and tried to straighten my bow.
the woman smiled at me.
"follow with me, then you will be safe" said the woman.I was confused and just nodded.
***
I was in a small house that was quite far from where it was. I sat while watching the woman.
"What brings you to that place?" ask the woman while making a cup of tea.
"no, I just happened to be walking around looking for fresh air because I was bored at home"
"what's your name?"
"i.." I suddenly stopped talking I started thinking that my name was two.
"i'm kayla" I continued.
"are you from the city?"
I nodded slowly.
"your own name?" ask me.
"My name is Davina" smiling and giving me a cup of tea.
"thank you" I said.
"Do you know Arham?" ask me.
the woman was silent for quite a while, I felt bad about asking her this.
"Kayla, you'd better get back to your house soon. This place isn't safe for you"
"uh uh? what's the matter?"
"I'm just worried that you'll be distracted by bad people because this place is deserted" the woman said.
I just kept quiet and tried to accept his input.
***
On the way home I passed the arham in the city.I looked elsewhere.But the eyes of the arham like to keep watching my steps.
"Kyla !" call arham down his horse.
I stopped and looked, but remained silent where I stood, not answering a single call.
Arham approached and held my left hand "kay.." It wasn't finished he said I let go of the handle. I just smiled forcefully.
"Is there a problem?" I looked at Arham and shook my head.
"then? what makes you like this?"
"no, we're fine. I just don't want to disturb your busyness" I said.
arham looked at me inside
"alright if that's what you want, I won't force it"
my chest was as tight as I wanted to cry it felt. I really felt like I was mispronouncing, but I couldn't take back my words.I can't say that I really miss her, really love her.
arham got back on his horse and walked away from me, getting further and further away until he was nowhere to be seen. How stupid I am, I lied this time to myself that I would still be fine without him. I was still silent limp while looking at him who was getting farther away unseen.
