Throughout the day Altezza spent his time in the palace, doing some of the tasks given by his mother. The atmosphere of the palace today is very crowded, a lot of servants and workers who work in the palace, busy with their work to help beautify the party decorations. The man's mood seems to be good, perhaps even very good, as seen from his expression that looks excited and enthusiastic when doing the tasks given by the Queen. Kenan only smiled, and also felt happy, always accompanied wherever Altezza went.
After making sure that all the tasks that are done are going well, and making sure that all the preparations are also going well, there is nothing to worry about. In the evening, Queen Caitlyn called and invited her youngest son to meet in the backyard of the palace, sitting on a park bench under a tree.
Altezza had just come along with Kenan, and seeing from a distance his mother was engrossed in playing with Shiro there, "you guys are so familiar, huh?" he said, then sat right next to Caitlyn. Shiro flew back with his loud voices, spinning several times over the two of them, before finally actually flying away towards the trees behind the palace.
"Shiro can't be quiet, can he?" caitlyn said, her gaze turned to the trees behind the palace, seeing several times the white eagle was flying agilely between the branches and the leaves of the tree.
Altezza chuckled and smiled, "he's like that if there's a playmate" he said.
Caitlyn then turned to Kenan who was standing next to the bench, smiled warmly at him and said, "Denant, you can rest first now ...! I want to have a casual talk with Altezza."
Kenan lowered his head and replied, "well, Your Majesty. I'm permission to leave the place" he answered and then left.
The sky slowly turned into the color of his waist, very bright and beautiful to look at. Lots of birds fly back to their nests. This afternoon Caitlyn is seen having some free time, and she wants to spend her time with her youngest son. Other than Altezza, there were no more, as King Aiden and his first son were busy with their respective work.
"Today I've been hearing that there's a woman coming to the palace and meeting you, is that true?" caitlyn asked, turned her head and looked at her son with a gentle gaze.
Altezza nodded in reply, "yes, right, her name is Bianca."
"When did you meet him? I never knew you could be that familiar with a girl, let alone a sweet girl." Caitlyn spoke with a curious look to her son, with a smile that did not fade from her pretty face.
"Where do you know?" sahut Altezza looked at his mother confusedly when he heard the last words on the sentence said by his mother.
Caitlyn smiled faintly and said, "what the hell don't you know in this palace?"
Altezza also answered Caitlyn's questions before, and told little about his meeting with Bianca. He also told about his closeness to the woman, and told his mother that the girl named Bianca would be his partner at the dance tomorrow.
Caitlyn looks happy to hear this, especially after hearing all the stories told by Altezza about his intimacy with a girl named Bianca. The second prince's meeting with a woman named Bianca in the front courtyard of the palace had become a trending topic in the palace, and finally reached her ears. Of course, this made him interested in knowing their relationship.
"Has she ever danced before, or had a dance experience?" caitlyn asked, after hearing all the stories from her son.
Altezza shook his head in response, "i don't know, but it seems like he has never danced at all. Is it okay?" he continued, then turned to his mother and asked.
"Of course it's okay, did you tell him to be at the palace tonight?" caitlyn said, smiling gently at her son.
"Had, he'd come after dinner" replied Altezza.
"Good, then we can practice first, all clean gladi for tomorrow" said Caitlyn, then embrace her son.
Several times Caitlyn was made to laugh, and it was difficult to fade from her smile, especially when she saw her son was engrossed in playing with the white eagle. They look like they're fighting witchcraft.

Dinner arrived, and as usual Altezza attended dinner with his beloved family. Present in his seat at the end of the dining table, a King from the Kingdom of Zephyra was King Aiden. But at this time of dinner, the man did not wear the crown and the robe of the king in red, he was there as a father and not a king. So did Queen Caitlyn who was sitting right next to Aiden, and just wearing casual clothes without her Queen's crown.
Welt and Clara were also present, sitting side by side, and opposite him sat Altezza who was next to his loyal bodyguard, Kenan. By bloodline, Kenan is not part of their family members, but Altezza and his family always invite him to dinner together. Altezza and his family seemed to have considered Kenan as one of their family members.
Dinner was very harmonious and fun, not because of the delicious food menu, but because of the laughter and jokes between the dinners they did. Their conversation was very casual, even far from formal. Kenan also looks fun and enjoys his time with the royal family is very open and accept his presence.
King Aiden also looks far from the word formal, and far from his title as a King. His speech attitude, as well as his intonation and vocabulary selection, were all relaxed and even seen several times he sparked topics that provoked laughter of his sons and his wife.
"Dine, how was your day today? Is Altezza a hassle?" aiden asked, turning his head and smiling at Kenan who was sitting right next to Altezza who was seen enjoying his food.
"Very good, Your Majesty. He is also not a hassle for me" Kenan replied with a happy smile, although this dinner is not a formal event even if they do not carry around their titles at dinner. But still, the man was difficult to speak non-formally to them, let alone to a King.
"Oh yes, Altezza! I hear you've chosen a partner for tomorrow, is that true?" cetus Clara, looked at her sister-in-law with a curious look.
"Is that true?!" sahut Aiden, looks new to know this from his daughter-in-law.
"Yes, Dad! Even that was the topic of one palace talk, everything was talking about it" Welt said, then glanced at his sister who was sitting right opposite him, and smiled faintly at him.
"Then why don't you invite them over for dinner with us?" sahut Aiden, after looking at Welt, his gaze shifted to Altezza.
"I'm sorry, I didn't think" replied Altezza, finished with a piece of his steak, and then continued saying, "but he was busy with his work, and he was very busy, so it doesn't seem to be able to join us here."
Clara suddenly raised her head, looked at Altezza curiously and asked, "what's her job?"
Altezza looked at Clara and replied, "library attendant."
"Hmm, she must be pretty, huh? To your attention" said Clara, propping up her chin with one of her hands, glancing at the cynical and sharp Altezza, and smiling at her sister-in-law.
The statement was backed by Welt who suddenly said, "to my knowledge, there was a girl who worked as a library clerk, and she was quite popular with male visitors" he said, he stared intently at Altezza and then asked, "is he?"
Altezza did not reply, only silent with a slightly downcast look. The conversation was interrupted by Caitlyn who chuckled and smiled when she noticed the handsome face of her youngest son slowly blushing, "already, already ...! Look at your sister's face, it's red, huh!" she said, then chuckled with one of her hands covering her pink lips.
Everyone laughed, while Altezza just sighed. Kenan who was sitting next to him also laughed seeing his prince did not talk with both cheeks slightly reddened. The atmosphere slowly melted, and then returned warm. The conversation continued while enjoying a very good dinner menu.
