One and Only
50 - Stupid and Greedy.
Yura and Arvan left the dining room together.
Seeing Yura and Arvan go together, the Queen seemed pleased because it meant that her attempt to match her twin sister to the Doctor and the Royal Counsel was not really a failure and a waste. The Queen hopes that Yura and Arvan's relationship can improve after the two talk to each other this time.
"I didn't expect, I guess this time you'll refuse to talk to me ." Yura said
"I just feel like I have to" said Arvan
"Because if not, I don't know when else I can be able to talk to you like this. If I refuse and you go around on your own, you'll meet the man's servant again and go around with him. I don't like to see that. Now I'm glad to be able to walk near you again, not even ignoring each other, but talking to each other. Although, you're being a little indifferent to me, it doesn't matter .. " continued Arvan muttering in his heart.
"I want to talk comfortably. Find a good place for us to talk together" Yura asked
"Well, you follow me. " said Arvan
Arvan takes Yura to the side garden. Both choose to sit on the bench of the park on the right and left there are shady trees and a flower garden decorated in the form of towering until it is likely difficult for others to find both there.
Initially, Yura and Arvan were still silent to each other without a sound. Arvan was still embarrassed and reluctant to start talking first, while Yura still set her feelings and stringed words before starting to talk.
Yura seemed to feel the softness of the air roaring her delicate skin. Feel the atmosphere around to calm himself before finally starting to open his voice and speak up.
"I know very well what I am. Often at will when talking, joking excessively. This careless, reckless, and haphazard girl like me might have offended you already. I'm sorry about that, but I don't regret my attitude because this is what I am" Yura said
"I thought we were friends, but it seems like I was the only one who thought that and misunderstood myself. If you don't like me or even hate me, that's your right. I will never dispute or forbid it" Yura continued
"No, Yura. You misunderstand me, you're a good girl and a good friend. I don't like you and I never hate you. I didn't think you'd quickly realize my intentions were trying to get away from you and I'm sorry about that. I'm the one who should say sorry to you, but I don't intend to continue and I feel ashamed and have no face to face with you again once you realize that I intend to stay away from you" Arvan said
"The only way is that you immediately acknowledge your intention to stay away from me. But what exactly is the reason you did it?" ask Yura
"I can't tell you why and maybe you won't understand" Arvan replied
"I'm too embarrassed to say that I like you and I foolishly choose to stay away from you which makes me feel tormented. I should have answered like that, but again I felt ashamed and became stupid until I finally could not say it" continued Arvan who could only speak in the heart.
"When I won't do it. Or do you hate me because my face is similar to that of the Queen and makes you more aware of the fact that your feelings are just a clap and you can't be with the woman you like, so you stay away from me?" asked Yura continued.
Instantly Arvan instantly looked surprised upon hearing Yura who had realized her forbidden feelings towards the Queen.
"How did you know? Since when?" ask Arvan
"What are your feelings for the Queen? I realized when you said that the reason you always carry a fire bat is just in case because the Queen likes to light a bonfire when she sees a night view, no ... I can even tell when I see your face that looks very worried when the Queen is unconscious due to injuries from the scratches of the poisoned iron fan of the killer dancer on my first day into the Royal Palace" Yura said
"Then, that means it has been a very long time, even Yura had noticed it from the beginning. Yura shouldn't need to know about this, I was so stupid that I let Yura know without me knowing. Not only do I like the Queen, I like you too. I'm just a stupid man who finally can't get one of the women I like because I'm greedy" Arvan said
Arvan was silent again. This time because he could not refute the words of Yura who knew about her feelings for the Queen.
"Arvan, why are you quiet? Can't you deny a bit? It means that all my allegations are true" Yura said
"I .. no" Arvan stopped talking because he didn't know what to say.
"However, don't misunderstand me first. Even though, I will not say about this feeling that you are hiding to the Queen or the King, I will never give you any blessing about that feeling of yours. I will not let you do anything else if you intend to take the Queen from the King. Nor will I hinder the employment relationship that exists between you and the Queen, but only to that extent and nothing more. You must know and be self-aware of your own position" Yura said
"I know you may not like and may be offended by my words this time, but I will not regret or retract my words because I am not only concerned with the Queen, my own brother, she said, but also care about you. It's for the good of everyone" Yura continued
"I understand. Take it easy, Yura. King Evan was a close friend of mine since childhood. I couldn't have taken away the wife he loved so much and ruined our long-standing friendship just because of my feelings" Arvan said
"Good, if you can understand .." Yura said
Yura had indeed long enough to realize about Arvan's feelings towards the Queen, her twin sister. However, Yura just let it go while continuing to keep an eye on the closeness between Arvan and the Queen in order to stay within reasonable limits. Provided that Arvan does not act beyond the reasonable limits, Yura will remain silent.
Yura felt a little relieved because Arvan could be spoken to so as not to have the desire to do anything or bad that desperate to seize Queen Yuna from King Evan. At least Yura had tried to defend and not let others ruin the integrity of her twin sister's household, including if that person was Arvan.
