Two Princes One Love
The Story of Cloud

Arriving in the cloud room...

I saw Cloud was busy with his ministers. I feel bad going inside. I better wait outside.

"Miss Ara?!"

I heard a voice calling my name. I also looked at the origin of the voice. And I see if Star calls.

"Greetings to Prince Star."

"Hail happy. But it feels like just call Star, Miss." Star returned my greeting.

"Em, yeah. Alright." I'm a little nervous.

"You waiting for Cloud?" ask again.

Whether planned or not. I met him this morning. But he is not with his wife. Maybe he has business with Cloud.

"Yes, Prince. There's something I want to talk to her about."

"Em, then we can wait for him while drinking tea on the balcony of the palace. Are you interested?" ask again.

Palace balcony? Well, then there will be misunderstanding again. I was worried about Star's invitation this morning.

Star smile. "Just calm. No one will be angry. We were just chatting normally and being watched by the guards. So there will be no wrong prejudice." Star explained.

I feel ashamed to hear his words. My mind has gone everywhere. Then I fulfilled his invitation to have tea together.

"All right, Prince."

We then walked to the balcony of the palace on the second floor. Not far from the cloud. It may be about three different rooms.

On the palace balcony...

I sat with Star on the second floor balcony terrace. We faced the front garden of the palace which now looks very neat and beautiful. It was clearly a heart-shaped arrangement of flowers that made me blush to myself. Who else if it wasn't Rain who made it for me.

Ah, I'm a GR myself.

"Finally we can speak four eyes, Miss."

Star sipped her tea. We sat separated by a fairly large round table. Maybe my distance to him is about a meter.

"Is there something the Prince wants to say?" just polite.

Star looked smiling. He put his tea cup back on the table. Along with that I saw birds flying over the sky of the palace. A cold wind accompanied our conversation this morning.

"Cloud told me. I'm so surprised by what happened to you guys." Star.

I was shocked when I found out about this topic, but I kept quiet and listened.

"I know very well how Cloud and his sister. From childhood we grew up together. It was only when we were twelve years apart."

"Where do you live, Prince?" ask me who wants to know.

"I live with my grandmother in the north of the country. Grandma likes to be there because it's close to the beautiful countryside." Star narrates.

I smiled and answered nothing.

"Fine."

Star suddenly said my name without saying miss. I feel awkward myself.

"Cloud is a joke. He likes to joke. But since grandpa's death, he'd rather lock himself up." Star started telling Cloud to me.

"He told me about the late king, Prince." I responded.

"And you know, you're the only outsider he's telling me about. Cloud believes in you."

"really?"

Star nodded.

"His age is required to marry. Therefore uncle prioritizes Cloud than Rain. Maybe you're aware of it too" he said again.

So this is the reason?

"Me and Cloud are two years different. And I got married at twenty-three. The age to marry for princes."

I was stunned to hear that.

"Actually I don't want to interfere in this. But as his cousin, I had to talk. I don't know how you feel about him. All I know is that Cloud loves you so much. You're the first woman for her." Star stood up.

"Prince Star, I—"

"I understand. Rain loves you too. You're worried about choosing. I can't force it either."

Star continued his words while gazing at the garden from the terrace fence, with both hands put in his pants pocket.

"You don't have to apologize, Ara. Maybe it's wrong Cloud. He was less sensitive to your feelings from the start. But ...,"

"But what, Prince?" ask again.

"Cloud has a good reason for that." Star turned to face me.

Looks like this conversation is headed in the direction for me to choose Cloud.

"He's traumatized by loss. So he stayed away for fear of losing again. Her feelings are so fragile, Ara."

I felt guilty after hearing this. My heart was confused to choose. I didn't want to choose Cloud because of the pity that now came to my mind.

"She had also once liked a princess from the Land of Flowers. And again the princess was lost to nowhere."

"Cloud told me, Prince."

"Yes. He lost his confidence. He felt that the person he loved and liked was leaving him. So that he was also afraid of feeling it again."

"But, Prince. I was ...," at the time ...,"

I think I want to continue this conversation. But I'm afraid Star will find out who I really am.

"Why, Ara?" Star was waiting for me.

"Em, no. Looks like I—"

"Hey, you're here without me?"

I haven't been able to continue to say, Cloud came to us. Looks like the guard in front of his room had told me that I was there earlier.

"Yes, yeah. We're gossiping, Cloud. You wanna come?" ask Star to Cloud.

"You are a virus. What the hell are you here for?" Cloud sat down and gulped down Star's teacup.

Oh my goodness, these are.

"Grandmother Sun requested that games be held for the fashion show later. That's why I'm here."

"Games?" Cloud was confused.

"Yes. He wanted to remember his youth. He asked for a heart election." Star delivers.

Huh uh?! What do you mean, huh?

"Are you allowed by Dad?" ask Cloud again.

Cloud smiled at me then kissed my left hand. He was not ashamed to show affection in front of his cousin.

"Huh, you're this. Laugh in front of me early." Star looks uncomfortable.

I held back the laughter as these two brothers chatted with each other. I still listened to the two speak.

"Not what, is it? You have an opponent. I'm being ...." Cloud glanced at me.

"cloud!" I tried to warn him.

"Huh, okay. That's just Grandma's message to you. For a long time I couldn't see you two. I'm sorry." Star also left.

"Hey, I'll be there!"

Cloud exclaimed to Star. He then walked over to me.

"Sorry, Ara. I'm really busy. This is also still an administrative matter that I have to resolve immediately. The day after tomorrow, I had a holiday" he said.

"Em, okay" I replied.

"Maybe we can go on vacation together later. You want to, right?" askinya.

I looked at her face, smiling as I rubbed her cheeks. Cloud took my hand.

"Pregnant?" He looked confused because I was silent.

I was stunned by all of Star's words. I can't imagine how she felt when I was with Rain. I was in a dilemma.

"Ara, what's wrong with you?" Cloud asked again.

"Cloud, I .. love you," I said and rubbed his slippery forehead.

"Pregnant?" He looks confused.

"Em, I came here to tell you the song I meant at the time."

I know Cloud is so busy. So I just said my purpose in meeting him. The romance change in my face caught his attention. Cloud looked at me without blinking.
