At night in the palace...
Rain and Ara were having a night together on the rooftop terrace of the prince's residence. Both are dancing lightly while playing songs from Ara's phone. The phone turned out Rain kept it well until finally Ara could look back at her phone.
Tonight the girl looks graceful wearing her long pink dress to the feet. The prince was still wearing his red robe.
“Sayang.”
“Hm?”
Ara was still at home laying her head on Rain's chest. He hugged his prince and did not want to let go. Rain also laughed a little at Ara's spoiled funny behavior. Just this time along her closeness Ara acted like an adorable little boy in Rain's eyes. Rain also did not mind Ara's attitude, she continued to gently caress the bride's hair.
“You still remember the incident when it rained that time?” ask Rain slowly.
“Time on this roof?” Ara raised her head, looking at Rain.
“He-em. The one I silenced you until you cried,” Rain said again.
“Huh, you're this. It likes to make people cry,” ketus Ara.
“Eh?!”
“You did it on purpose, didn't you?” Ara guess.
“Honey, not so I mean.” Rain defended himself.
“Then?” ask Ara who wants certainty.
Rain was silent for a moment, he turned his gaze away while continuing to dance lightly. And finally he admitted something.
“I ... jealousy. I was jealous of that time ...” Rain acknowledged.
"Jealous?"
"Yes. I was jealous to see you with him. Just that time I felt pain, but it didn't bleed." Rain acknowledged in front of his girl.
One year ago, the beginning of Rain and Ara's closeness…
Rain had just arrived at the palace after some business required him to go outside. The footsteps of his horse walked slowly as it passed through the palace gazebo. This morning he did not see the figure of the girl who used to sit there.
Where's he going, huh?
With his troops, Rain passed through the palace gazebo towards the backyard. He then held an apple briefly with the troops in order to patrol the security. From dawn until noon, he had not slept. Rain carried out his routine and responsibilities as a royal high commander.
By dawn, Rain had awakened and was ready to train his troops. It was only at sunrise that the military exercises he did were over. And then he gets an empty hour if there's no work. However, for some reason that day he was required to go outside the palace. He did not want the prince to do his duty.
After leaving the palace for several hours, the prince returned and did not see the girl who used to sit in the gazebo there. After doing an apple for a while, Rain was intent on finding out where the girl was. For a long time he asked here and there until finally found an answer. Rain immediately headed for the destination location with his dark horse. Yet…
Arriving at the waterfall area his feeling turned unpleasant. He saw Cloud's white horse and the palace's chariot. On the waterfall plateau he only found a coachman and some cavalry in charge of escorting Ara. With a thumping heart, Rain came down from his horse and headed for the waterfall by passing dozens of stairs. And when he got down below, he saw a sight that cut his heart.
Ara ….
He looked from his point of view if Ara and Cloud were kissing. At once his heart also hurt not playing. Just now he felt how to fall in love. But now, he already had to feel a pain that could not be expressed in words. Both hands clenched, his chest heaving and falling irregularly looking at what was happening down there. He immediately stepped his feet leaving the scene.
…
“That time I was so sick to see you with her, Ara.” Rain allowed Ara's bangs to be swept away by the night wind.
“Rain ...”
“I don't know how to describe the pain. It may hurt more than being slashed by a sword. My whole life was the first time I felt such pain.” Rain.
“Rain, but what you see is not true.” Ara tried to explain.
“Yes, it's possible. But from that incident I tried to refrain from approaching you. I finally heard you were sick. Do you remember when I delivered medicine and food?” ask Rain again.
“Ara.” Rain hugged Ara tightly, their dance steps halted. “I really love you. I'm not good at putting words together to show my love. But know, I really want you. Not only for me, but also for my children.” Rain was honest.
“Iya, Darling. I understand.” Ara rubbed Rain's back.
“But now the old man has made a crazy decision. I'm so upset.” Rain scolded his father.
“Hey, it can't be like that. The king is your father.” Ara let go of the embrace then looked at her prince.
"Yes, I know. But I'm still pissed." Rain held back his emotions.
"Here, yeah." Ara calmed her prince.
"Fine."
“Hm?”
“To be honest I want to be the first. But it doesn't seem like it can, huh?” Rain smiled at Ara.
“Basic!” Ara also hit her prince.
“Sick, Babe!” Rain held onto her arm which Ara hit.
“You're pissing me off, you know!” grumbled the girl.
“Eh, really? Not that I'm funny, huh?” Rain thought to himself.
“Iya, funny. I'm so worried about seeing you!” yell Ara again.
“You're worried about me?" ask Rain.
“He-em.”
“But why not do anything to me?” ask Rain again.
“Hah?” Ara confused.
“This.” Rain pointed at his lips.
“Rain ...”
“Kiss me, Ara,” the door that made the girl squander into his arms.
“Rain, I love you.” Ara suddenly hugged Rain tightly once.
“I love you more, My girl. But now kiss me first. I can't stand it,” said Rain who made Ara laugh.
“Hahaha, you're this base!”
Ara brought her face closer to Rain's. He tried to grab Rain's pink lips. But since Ara wasn't too tall, she had trouble reaching for her prince's lips. This made Rain smile to himself.
“Difficult yes if I stand upright like this?” Rain was mocking Ara.
“Rain!” Ara was also upset.
“Alright, I'm the one who lowered my head.” Rain kissed Ara.
Both of the girl's hands were coiled around the neck of her prince. Rain wrapped both hands around Ara's waist. They kissed while enjoying the night together. The two release the energy of love after a long time without seeing each other. And again the love of both is envious for anyone who sees it.
I love you, Ara. Oversightedly love you. Rain deepened his kiss.
