Alin knew that Luke was starting to change. Alin turned to Lukas while daydreaming the man who was careless in front of him. But Luke knew it and he let Alin look at him for a while. Luke, who was still focused on reading, was suddenly called by Alin.
"Luke?"
"Hm?"
"Aren't you going to the academy?" Alin asked with a lethargic and sad expression.
"No, I'll be in at the second hour."
After hearing that, Alin went back to daydreaming and thinking about something he had daydreamed about before. But this time he looked the other way with a look of sadness. There is something that makes it that way, which is jealousy and self-confidence.
"Humppt.. Why doesn't he just leave?! I don't need him, he must have done this because he was forced by the others, right? Her... Lukas...when will you realize and accept me? I'm..."
The tear granules managed to escape out of Alin's eye patch. He quickly wiped it so that no one would know. But Luke, who was beside him, knew it. He immediately asked him.
"What's wrong? Why are you crying? Is anyone sick?" Ask Luke who seems worried.
"Ehm no, no. I'm fine."
"Are you sure?"
"Hm!"
"If anyone wants to be asked or told just say it, I'll answer it as best I can." Luke said, ruffling Alin's hair.
When Lukas returns to his original position, Alin has an idea that might help him. He will ask Luke to explain it to him about the Clorian slave whom Luke could not have known about.
"Luke? Can you explain something to me?"
"What?" Ask Luke who is still focusing on reading the book.
"Are you able to explain about the Clorian soul slave?"
"Ehm... You're a kid, you won't understand. Quickly grow up and I'll explain." Said Luke smilingly towards Alin while stroking his head.
"Humppt... You guys are like that! You always said I wouldn't understand that. I'm not a child anymore, in 2 months I'll be 19 years old, still a child?!" Alin's grumpy looks very upset.
He was upset with all those who did not want to explain about the soul slave in his body, they always assume that Alin still can not understand it because generally are too young.
The irritated Alin turned his gaze the other way and crossed his hands with a pouting expression. Luke, of course, must find a way to keep Alin from getting angry with them again.
"Hufts... Do you want to take a walk?" Ask Lukas.
When he heard Luke's words, Alin immediately looked excited again. He came down from the bed and drew Luke's hand to leave.
"Alright, come. Come on, Luke!" Excited Alin.
Luke was so happy to see Alin at a time like this, it was Alin who was full of joy and laughter that he wanted. He wants to make the people he loves feel happiness instead of sadness.
"She looks cute at times like this.. Does he realize I'm gonna like him?"
"No need, you pervert! I can take a shower myself, just watch if I peek or get in, I'll kill you!" Firm Alin.
"OK, okay. If I peek or go in. just kill me." Luke said, handing over a dagger to Alin.
"Do you really want to die?!"
"Hehehe, of course not, but just in case. Who knows if there's someone disguised as me, you can kill him right away, right?"
Alin then thought for a moment and after thinking, Alin agreed to it. Because he wanted to be even more vigilant, as Luke had said.
"yes too. All right, thank you."
Alin took the dagger and went into the bathroom. As for Luke, he came out and waited in front with a few bodyguards present. He sat there waiting for Alin.
It had been a long time since Luke waited for Alin, but he had not come out and appeared so that made Luke feel a bit upset. A few minutes later, the door of the room opened and Alin came out dressed neatly.
When Luke finds out about Alin's arrival that has upset him, Luke wants to nag him. But when Lukas turned around and looked at Alin, he was very fond of seeing Alin looking so beautiful with his makeup at that moment.
"Why la-"
"Hm?"
With the wavy hair in the booth, then in the clasps right with the purple flower clasps that Yudian gave her, Alin looked very beautiful. A beautiful face wrapped in natural-looking makeup makes Alin look more charming, let alone the selection of clothes that are very fitting with their appearance and plans. Luke was immediately stunned with his face already blushing, he quickly turned away from Alin's gaze.
"Hurry over."
"Do my looks match?" Alin asked who immediately appeared in front of Luke with sparkling eyes.
"No." Answer Luke who is still blushing.
Wanting to quickly avoid Alin's question, Luke responds to Alin with the opposite reality so that he is not seduced by Alin. But Alin took Luke's words seriously and intended to change the style again. Luke, of course, disagreed and relented because he was tired of waiting for Alin who was too long to dress up.
"Oh, then I change my clothes first." Said Alin who turned around and wanted to go inside.
"Eh, uh no, no. You. You're already beautiful. Hm, yes. Hurry up, if you change your current style, we might run out of time."
Luke pulls Alin's hand and he quickly answers Alin's question according to reality. But it even makes him more blushing, Alin of course knows about it and he finally undoes his intention to tempt Luke for now.
"Haha... All right, polar mountain, let's go! Come on, come on." Excited Alin who immediately grabbed and pulled Luke's hand.
They left with laughter and jokes that echoed in every hallway through. Everyone who saw them looked surprised and unexpected by the closeness of the two of them who were so quickly developing.
Luke, whom they had seen with a cold-hearted man, slowly looked at the opposite side. Alin who was once a poor and quiet girl, became a very cheerful and sociable girl. They are both very suitable, they can complement each other's shortcomings.
One needs someone to protect and love him, while one needs someone to be someone who loves him for who he is. There may be many differences and shortcomings, but they can complement each other.
Moments later Luke and Alin were in the palace garden. The two of them walked in the garden grass that was so beautiful and clean as it looked, hand in hand. The smiles and laughter of happiness were clearly visible on their faces. And they both felt the same feeling, that they had become closer now, but they did not dare to express it.
"Is this my feeling or... Are we both getting closer?" The inner two, who then looked at each other.
