The Journey of the Phoenix

Haruka then immediately walked to be able to approach Prince Kichiro, while holding his butterfly pin, Prince Kichiro still noticed Haruka who walked slowly approaching him.

When Haruka was in front of Prince Kichiro, then Haruka remembered that the place where Norr lived, Princess Kirana, Leo also himself was not far from where they are today, making Haruka have to be careful that the Prince does not know their whereabouts, and make the Prince not suspect himself.

"Have you met?" said, Prince Kichiro who looked at Haruka's face.

Haruka who heard the remark from the Prince immediately he nodded, before long Haruka immediately spoke to Prince Kichiro.

"Hm, you can clean up now, and I'll be gone right now." Say, Haruka with a stern face.

The prince who saw Haruka so desperately did not want to know exactly what had happened to him, making the Prince feel that Haruka just did not want to ask first, before he started the conversation. Yes, Haruka was indeed so very curious about Prince Kichiro who was suddenly in the forest that he did not even have time to clean up before leaving Yu Palace.

Suspicion arises, from inside Haruka he also feels that the conditions inside Yu Palace are not under control, somehow Haruka guessed such things, such things, because when you see the look on the face of Prince Kichiro who looks to be harboring a sadness in him.

"You're right, well I'll clean up in this place." Said, Prince Kichiro who was staring at Haruka's pair of blue eyes.

"Yes, and I'm gonna go find some fruits around here, I'm sorry." Said, Haruka who immediately walked for through Prince Kichiro.

The prince who saw Haruka was leaving him made him immediately turn his head to the right side to look at Haruka, then the Prince immediately spoke to Haruka.

"Haruka?" said, Prince Kichiro who slightly glanced at Haruka.

Haruka who heard the remark from Prince Kichiro then she immediately stopped her steps, while slightly turning her head towards the left side, and soon his pair of blue eyes were staring at the face of Prince Kichiro who was also staring at his face.

"What's the Prince?" said, Haruka who looks so very curious, with the self of Prince Kichiro who suddenly just called himself that.

The prince who saw Haruka's face, with his pair of blue eyes, made himself again remembered by the figure of Princess Hanna. However, the Prince must realize that in front of him right now is Haruka is not Princess Hanna.

"Hm, where do you live?" asked Prince Kichiro who looked so very curious about Haruka.

Haruka who heard that, looked a little surprised she looked a bit confused what to reason to Prince Kichiro, but do not think Haruka did not have thousands of reasons, he did not have a thousand reasons, fortunately Haruka was a cunning woman, and not as innocent as the women in general, which of course if you feel cornered then you will say honestly, and made himself even mired into the abyss that he had made himself.

"I, wherever I stand, I will find a place to live, I can sleep on a tree branch, wherever I am as comfortable as I am, Prince." Said, Haruka who looked at Prince Kichiro's face with the look of his face that looked so very cold even though he had already smiled at Prince Kichiro.

"Hm, if you're willing you can stay in my place, well not far from here, if you're willing then I'll give it to you, while I can sleep anywhere, I can sleep, not terbesit my bad intentions towards you, I just feel it is not good to let a woman sleep on a tree branch, especially if it is already midnight, it is not good for health." Said, Prince Kichiro who was staring at Haruka's face.

Haruka who heard the remark from Prince Kichiro then she immediately smiled faintly to the Prince.

"Hm, thanks for the goodwill, the Sun is getting higher, I have to go." Said, Haruka who was looking up at the sky she saw the already hotter Sun.

Prince Kichiro who heard the words from Haruka then he also immediately noticed the blue sky that was being inhabited by the Sun which was so very bright.

"Hm, but can we still meet Haruka?" said, The prince who looked at Haruka's face expectantly.

Haruka who heard the words from Prince Kichiro, and also when she saw the look on her face that so desperately wanted Haruka to agree with her words, made Haruka unable to resist.

"Yes, Prince." Said, Haruka who then immediately turned her face to be able to continue her steps.

In Haruka's mind, what he was doing was already very deviating from his goal, heh he had said that his goal was close to Prince Kichiro just because he wanted to protect himself, heh, but when Haruka thinks again what he is doing is not only to protect but also to be with the man he loves so much.

"Let everything be like this, until later that time will answer everything." In Haruka's mind, with quick steps she immediately left Prince Kichiro alone near the river.

Prince Kichiro who noticed Haruka from behind, only fell silent then the Prince slightly lowered his gaze and he stared at Haruka's right arm which was holding the butterfly pin from him.

Prince Kichiro then immediately turned his body and walked towards the river, while Haruka who was away from Prince Kichiro looked a little restless, if the Prince had known of Norr and Princess Kirana in this forest, Haruka would never have known what would happen next.

While in the middle of the forest, a wooden house made by Norr and Princess Kirana, seen from outside the wooden house Norr, and Princess Kirana walked to get out of the wooden House they were.

"Did you see Haruka? I didn't see him around this place." Said, Princess Kirana who immediately looked at Norr's face.

Norr who was beside Princess Kirana also did not know where Haruka went, because when he woke up he had not seen Haruka anymore.

"I don't know where he's going either." Saying, Norr. While looking at the face of Princess Kirana who was beside him.

When Norr and Princess Kirana were talking came Leo who came out of the trees, Princess Kirana who was pensive then she was immediately surprised to see Leo just returned, after a night he did not come home.
