In one corner of the palace...
Rain walked quickly from the south direction of this royal palace. He left, intending to take his horse. He wanted to find Ara himself. Rain could no longer hold himself back, he was very worried about the girl.
"Wheel!"
Not yet halfway through, Rain meets Star, his cousin. They talked about the disappearance of the girl.
"Rain, I found some clues to Ara's disappearance." Star.
"Just say it. I don't have much time to talk to you" Rain said as he continued walking.
"You're going?" ask Star.
"Yes, I'll find Ara myself."
"Rain, are you crazy?!" Star surprised. "What if uncle finds out you're out of the palace without his permission?" Star looked worried.
Rain silent. It was like he realized something.
"So you heard our conversation?" search Rain.
"Yes, I heard it. I hope you're willing to comply with uncle's request, Rain."
"I can't, Star! I can't keep going in the palace while I don't know where Ara is right now!" Rain emotion.
"You can take a break to calm your mind, Rain." Star persuaded.
"No! Can't! I can't rest until I've found the certainty of the news. Our relationship has gone too far, I can't calm down if I just keep quiet!"
"Rain—"
"Please understand me. She was the first girl in my life. You must understand."
Rain looked at his cousin with a raging look, between angry and sad who became one. Star was stunned to see the anger.
Finally the youngest son of this kingdom showed the other side of himself in front of me. How big is his feeling about that girl? All my life this time I saw it like this.
"alright. I will accompany you out of the palace. So we have a reason." Star finally helped.
"You're serious?"
"Yes, I'm serious. If uncle is to be angry, then I will also be affected by his anger." Star relax.
"thank you. I owe you." The emotions of Rain finally subsided.
"Don't you turn that around. We're brothers. If only others could help each other, let alone us." Star smiled at Rain.
"But .. I'm afraid your baby needs you." Rain seemed to object.
"What's wrong, there's his mother. We're leaving now, Rain." Star patted Rain on the shoulder.
They immediately rushed to get the horse. Rain is looking for clues as to the girl's whereabouts. He and Star went out of the palace with his horse riding each. The two walked along the streets of the city palaces. They want to find certainty.
At the same time, at Zu's villa...
Ara had already regained consciousness from her stupor. He also quickly moved from sleep. Slowly he set foot on the outside terrace. He wanted to breathe air this morning.
My head is so dizzy. My stomach is not good either. What exactly is going on? I didn't seem to have eaten anything weird before.
Ara was confused by her circumstances. His mind was suddenly unable to focus. He sat on the terrace outside his room. And soon the prince of Asia came.
"Miss?"
Zu entered the room with fruit. He deliberately brought the fruits because he knew that Ara was not able to eat rice. His mind was fixed on a situation that he did not want to know the truth.
Zu did not see Ara in his bed, he then headed to the outside terrace of the room. And sure enough he found the girl holding his head.
"Miss, I brought you some fruits." Zu put the fruits on the table, next to the girl.
"Prince Zu, thank you." Ara smiled slightly after noticing her arrival.
"Em, I feel better now," replied Ara.
Ara's face looked pale, convincing Zu of his own conclusion, if the girl was indeed pregnant. He then sat next to Ara with a separate terrace table. I don't know why there was a desire to ask the truth. But, Zu was worried that Ara would be angry with him.
"Prince."
"Yes, Miss?"
"Do you have ginger?" ask Ara later.
"Dam?"
"Yes, right. A kind of tuber that tastes a little spicy," said Ara again.
"Em, briefly. I'll look for him." Zu hurried away.
"Prince, I'll accompany you." Ara felt bad if Zu looked for her himself.
"You rest, Miss. I can look for it myself" Zu replied with a smile. He rushed out from before Ara, but had just sat down.
Prince, you're so good to me. Somehow I have to thank you.
Zu then left Ara. He's looking for what Ara needs.
A few moments later...
Zu came back with something in his hand. He looked exhausted after searching, his forehead sweating.
"Miss, I don't know what ginger is. I just found this." Zu gave up what he found.
"Dumbler?" Ara dumbfounded.
"Yes, Miss. There's no ginger in question" Zu said again.
Instantly Ara felt moved by Zu's attitude. The prince treated himself like Ara's personal servant. Ara then moved from her seat. He walked closer to Zu.
"Miss?" Zu saw Ara approaching.
"Prince ...,"
The two are now facing each other at a fairly close distance. And because Ara's height was only limited to Zu's chin, the girl had to raise her eyes to see the prince more clearly.
"Miss ...."
Zu also looked at Ara who was now silent before him. I don't know why suddenly there was a sense that he could not express, when he saw the girl with a closer distance like this. Ara hugged him.
Missy?!
Zu was aghast as Ara hugged her body. Both of the girls hands were coiled around his body.
Is this a dream?
Zu was astonished himself, not believing that Ara would do it. He then raised one by one his hands, letting both of Ara's hands coiled around his waist.
"Thank you for helping me" said the girl, holding back tears.
Finally Ara said a word that made Zu's heart full. He felt that Ara was serious about saying it.
Miss, you don't have to say that word to me. You really know what my heart means.
Slowly Zu returned the girl's embrace. His left hand rubbed Ara's head slowly, while his right hand held the girl's body. Zu felt very comfortable when he was this close. He's never felt this before.
Ara let herself in Zu's arms. He didn't know how to express his gratitude. He just tried to follow the flow of life that he could not afford to fight. Ara began to realize that now the one in front of her was Zu, not Rain or Cloud.
It's not that I don't know what you mean, Prince. It's just that I haven't been able to forget it all that quickly. I love both my princes. I can't lie to this heart. However, on the other hand I am very grateful to you for saving me, from the coldness of the basement that made my body freeze. Hopefully in the future we can make this friendship well.
Ara still considered Zu as her friend. But unfortunately, Zu did not think that way. Ara's embrace is proof that the girl is starting to open her heart to him. And Zu believed that.
