MY BELOVED KNIGHT'S
STILL EVADING
Unfortunately after that Tira immediately disconnected the conversation between him and Anna who seemed to breathe out a little loudly through the sidelines of her lips once the phone call between her and Tira was cut off.
"Aist... No Ernest, no Tira, why are the two of them acting so strange today? Hah.. I hope all is well." Anna muttered softly and continued her intention to look for materials to do the task of one of her college eyes after Tira hung up her phone call.
“Are you okay Tira?” Angel immediately tried to open the conversation with Tira as soon as he saw Tira had stopped talking to Anna and put her phone in her bag.
Ah, I actually lost my focus from thinking too much about Ernest. How come among so many students, I chose to sit next to Angel?
Tira moaned in his heart without daring to show it to the look of his face so that Angel did not feel that in fact other than Ernest, Angel was the person he wanted to avoid for now.
“Of course Angel, do I look sick?” Tira asked Angel while smiling at her.
“Not really, it's just. sorry... I just heard a little conversation you had with Anna on the phone...”.
“Oh...” Tira immediately muttered softly hearing the words from Angel.
“Is your relationship with Ernest in trouble? Actually, have you guys formalized your relationship as lovers?” Angel's question made Tira pause for a moment.
I was really careless today. My conversation with Anna must have made Anna think that my relationship with Ernest was in trouble and that she could enter between the two of us to seize Ernest.
Tira said inwardly as she thought of how to answer Angel's question so that the girl would not think that she could get a chance to grab Ernest's attention from her, but also try to answer wisely so that Angel does not feel rivaled, because he has heard that for now Angel is so interested in Ernest and determined to get Ernest by dropping his good name.
Recalling that, Tira immediately put on her big smile in front of Angel.
“Ah, no. I'm not in trouble with Ernest, it's just that I'm still not sure what to do with Ernest to answer his feelings. I want to ask for time to be able to think of an answer to Ernest's statement, so our relationship still hangs.” Tira's explanation unconsciously made Angel smile so widely, making Tira almost say regret for having said that to Angel.
Though in her heart, Tira even hoped that the uncertainty between her and Ernest could be resolved soon, and she also wished that she could hear from Ernest's lips about the feeling of love for him, because he himself realized that he was so in love with the handsome and kind man.
If not in the current condition, it feels like Angel wants to not only shout inwardly, but really shout his pleasure at realizing there is still a chance for him to snatch Ernest from Tira.
“Hopefully you can decide it wisely and head cold, because many people often mistakenly distinguish between just like and love, or just a sense of awe or really love.” Angel's words almost made Tira smile widely, because very obvious through his words, Angel wanted to make Tira reject Angel.
“Excuse me, can I sit here? Still empty, right?” With confidence Janeta who had just entered the classroom immediately took a sitting position next to Tira, so that Tira sat between Angel and Janeta, making both Angel and Tira immediately silent to each other, though they nod their heads simultaneously to accept Janeta's request to join them.

Ernest, who was galloping towards the classroom, immediately braked the movements of his legs as soon as he was right in front of the classroom door.
With a step forward Ernest walked as his eyes swept across the room, where he finally found the figure of Tira sitting between Janettta and Angel, making Ernest frown.
Thankfully it turned out that the princess was really in the classroom and safe, not in danger.
Ernest said inwardly with a heart that immediately felt so relieved and his cold head returned as soon as he saw Tira's presence in the class was in fine condition.
Seeing the position of Tira who had been between Angel and Janeta, making Ernest, inevitably returned to sit in the place he had chosen after he saw there was no opportunity to approach Tira.
Several times, Ernest, who was sitting at the front compared to Tira, tried to glance at Tira who the night before had already made him unable to close his eyes for a second.
At this time Ernest really hoped that Tira would turn to him for a moment, but like people who do not know Ernest, Tira continued to focus on staring at the lecturer who was teaching, and just like those who did not know Ernest, Tira continued to focus on looking at the lecturer who was teaching, even when Angel or Janeta asked her to speak, Tira chose to answer them without turning her head, still looking ahead.
The first thing Ernest wanted to do as soon as today's lecture session was over was to rush closer towards Tira, and question about Tira's decision not to be escorted by him or Edi and Steven during her stay at the Shaw family mansion.
However, Angel who from the beginning was waiting for an opportunity to get close to Ernest immediately walked towards Ernest and deliberately tried to block Ernest's steps, who finally could only see the figure of Tira who looked unconcerned and did not turn her head in the slightest towards him, straight out of the classroom door, even directly asked Steven and Edi who were ready at the gate to directly drive him back to the mansion.
