“Please Princess...” With respect and courtesy Ernest invites Tira to get into the car, after Ernest opens the car door for him.
At first glance Tira glanced at Ernest, who looked to be a little quiet with his serious face, unlike usual, after hearing the conversation between Tira and Evelyn earlier.
“Thanks.” While saying his thanks, Tira got into the car, and took a sitting position opposite the driver's position, so that from the back, Tira could more freely observe Ernest's face later.
After closing the door again on the passenger side, without saying anything, Ernest headed straight for the driver's position, and drove off without saying much.
Even 10 minutes passed by from the moment they left the Shaw family mansion, between Tira and Ernest, not a word had come out of their lips, making the current them like two people who were hostile.
Tira deliberately for the first few minutes after going alone with Ernest, not wanting to talk about anything with Ernest, just observing what changes happened to Ernest.
As for Ernest himself, his kind heart and mind could not calm down after hearing the conversation between Tira and Evelyn that discussed Victor's plan to match Tira with one of the princes who came from Gracetian.
Will my plans with Evelyn work? Hopefully, the conversation we both had earlier, could really provoke Ernest to tell the truth about his heart all this time to me.
Tira said inwardly as she glanced at Ernest, where Tira could see the cloudy aura on Ernest's face ever since the handsome man she loved got into the car.
Ernest who usually looks friendly, and will certainly invite him to talk about anything to liven up the atmosphere, but at this time it looks so clear how the figure of Ernest who suddenly became so quiet with a tense face.
Since deciding to fish for Ernest to be honest with his feelings, Tira accidentally asks Evelyn for help to pretend to talk about Victor's arranged marriage plan for him.
Although Tira has to tell the truth about her love for Ernest in front of Evelyn, but Tira is convinced Evelyn can keep her secret, choosing to take a risk and asking Evelyn for help to pretend to intercept him when he was planning to go home with Ernest earlier.
From the beginning, as soon as Evelyn and she carried out her plan, Tira continued to observe the changes that occurred to Ernest, whether facial expressions or body movements.
And from his observation earlier, Tira was a little convinced that it was true, Ernest had a special feeling for him, especially until this moment, Tira could see how gloomy Ernest's face was all the way to the apartment.
“Ernest...” The soft voice of Tira who called his name, made the slightly dreamy Ernest gasp in shock.
“Ya Princess...what is it?” Ernest politely answered Tira's call which in a matter of seconds had already managed to make his chest beat violently.
How not? That soft voice, was the voice that he had so longed for these few days, and always filled his mind and heart.
Today after Ernest felt so happy to imagine being able to meet and communicate with Tira again, the conversation between Tira and Evelyn had really made him not calm.
However, on the other hand, as a man who loved Tira so much, there was a great sense of jealousy going on, and it felt like Ernest was eager to rebel and let the world know that he loved Tira so much and also wanted to have the girl as his lover.
“You must have heard what I talked to Evelyn about. Whaddya think? Who are the princes that papa will choose to betroth with me?” Thira's question, made Ernest's chest feel so painful, and the jealousy that had burned his heart, further made his heart burn, it was as if Tira's words had become gasoline splashed into the blazing flames.
“Is the Princess so happy and so expecting that matchmaking? Does Putri really want to get a soul mate in a forced way like that?” Ernest's words just slid from his lips, making Ernest even surprised by himself for being so bold as to say such words to Tira.
Holy hooch! Why are my lips so sassy? Can I say something that shows how I feel so upset about the princess's matchmaking plan?
Ernest, who realized he was too late to hold his lips back to say those disrespectful words to Tira, could only nag himself inwardly in a sorry manner.
“Sorry Princess.. sorry for my question just now.” Finally Ernest said as he glanced at the rearview mirror, hoping that Tira's face would not show an aura of offence or anger towards him.
A faint smile fell on Tira's lips, making Ernest slightly swallow his saliva.
What the hell does this mean? Why did the princess smile after hearing what I just said? Shouldn't the princess feel I've been presumptuous to show reservations about the matchmaking plan?
Ernest said inwardly and turned his eyes away from the rearview.
“No problem Ernest, maybe you have a problem? Why do you look so moody from now on, and your attitude shows that your heart is in turmoil today? Did anything make you dislike today? Is anyone bothering you?” Instead of stopping his speech, Tira just provoked Ernest's emotions.
“Eh... no Princess, no anything bothers me today.” Ernest quickly said, and subconsciously his foot stepped on the gas deeper, so that the car of the mealju firmer.
It felt that at this time Ernest wanted to get to the apartment immediately, so that his chaotic mind did not bring bad consequences that could make them both have accidents on the road due to his negligence.
“Good then, I'm glad to hear it, because to be honest, since coming out of the Shaw family mansion, you look like a person who is under a lot of burden of mind. Could there be someone you like in the mansion, and your heart would not be willing to leave him there?” Tira's question almost made Ernest step on the brake suddenly.
“No Princess, no. Princess even knows besides the friends of His Highness Alvero and the Gracetian palace family, I do not know the people who live in that mansion.” Ernest's reply which he spoke with a slightly panicked tone and face, made Tira smile widely, because this time, he was already completely convinced that Ernest, actually liked him a lot.
Just a little more time, as soon as I get to the apartment.This time I will make you confess, and can not dodge anymore to tell me the truth. Saying that you too have fallen in love with me Ernest. I won't let you avoid it again this time. I will make you confess your love to me today.
Tira said in his heart while looking out the window of his car, where he saw the car he was riding in at this time, had entered the apartment area, and was sliding towards the parking lot.
