Two Princes One Love

"Where did Rain sleep last night?"

I heard that Adit asked. I was a little relieved to make it. I thought if it was Dad who cleared his throat earlier.

"c, Adit. Brother Rain sleeps in the TV room," Rain replied slightly stammered.

"Oh, kirain in Ara's room" said Adit.

Holy hooch! Did Adit hear about last night? I'm so worried.

"No, Dit. Brother Rain sleeps in the TV room. It's just that last night woke up Brother to ask for fried noodles," I replied reasoned, "yes, Rain?"

I blinked my eyes at Rain, coding for Rain to agree with me. Rain seemed to understand what I meant.

"Yes, Dit. Last night, Brother Rain woke up hungry" Rain said.

Adit was silent and did not question anymore. I think Adit believed what we said. I'm a little relieved to see it.

Thank goodness there is a reason. Otherwise, Adit would have complained to dad. And it would be very scary for me.

I took a deep breath and tried to be mediocre. As for Rain, he instead smiled to himself without feeling any guilt at all.

"Fine."

"What's? It's there! Just wait at the dinner table. You can get me in an emergency, you know!" grumbling.

"Yes, okay. My dear darling."

Rain then moved away from me. He sat at the dinner table waiting for breakfast to be available. Unintentionally, he saw our photo album on a small table in the corner of the room. Rain took the photo album and opened it.

"Ara, is this you?" I asked while looking at our photo album.

"Yes, the biggest one" I replied.

Occasionally Rain glanced at me. Looks like he saw a picture of me as a kid first. And now in front of him was the grown-up Ara.

Rain, almost got caught, I whispered in my heart.

An hour later...

Now me, Rain, father and mother are sitting together on the back porch. Today my father deliberately left a little afternoon to the market because Rain wanted to talk about something important.

"All right, Rain Boy. What do you want to talk to Dad about?" ask dad.

We sat in pairs sipping green tea from dad's friend. I saw Rain as having a hard time starting the conversation.

"Rain, just say it," asked me who was beginning to feel anxious.

He sighed for a moment before opening the conversation. Mother seemed to be worried about this situation. It seemed like there was indeed something very serious until Rain asked for a moment of father time.

"Dad, Mother."

Rain then began to speak. My father and mother seemed to notice, as I tried to normalize this erratic heartbeat.

"Tomorrow Rain will return. Rain wanted to ask Mom and Dad for help" he said.

Rain's words surprised me.

"Rain, why didn't you tell me?!" manywould be surprised.

"Ara, listen first" my mother asked.

I kept quiet and waited for the conversation to continue.

"Dad, Mother. Please take care of Ara until Rain returns. Pray that this war will not happen."

Rain asked for the prayers of my parents. Mom felt sorry for her words. Mom seemed to breathe for a moment.

"Mom can't say anything, Son Rain. I can only pray for the best for you. It is hard to carry out the task as a soldier, especially as Nak Rain holds. May peace be made so that there will be no need for war."

I looked sad when I heard Rain. Maybe the mother was sad because her son had to be left to go to war.

"All right, I understand. I hope everything's okay. Good luck, son."

Dad patted Rain on the shoulder, he gave encouragement to his future daughter-in-law. I myself was immersed in my thoughts. I didn't think my meeting would be this fast. I still want to be with him longer.

Honestly speaking. I just started loving her, but now she has to leave me. I was so discouraged, why did everything have to happen to me? I really hate goodbye. That fear ran through my heart. I'm afraid I'm losing Rain.

Oh my God, please take care of Rain for me.

I can only pray. Again, only prayer can be offered. I wish Rain could come back with me. I really can't hear bad news about him. I have been through a lot with him. L loved her.

After lunch...

I sat on the back porch floor. I looked at this koi fish pond in front of me. I feel so sad. It turns out that this happiness is only a moment I feel.

"Fine."

Rain then sat on my right side. He held my right hand and kissed it. The wind passing by seemed to know my heart. The parrot in the cage was silent, making no sound at all. As if I understood if I would be left behind soon.

"I don't want this to happen either, Ara. But this is my job. Please don't be sad like that. I'm getting heavy leaving you."

Rain's face turned sad. I felt that he was too heavy to leave me.

"Rain ...."

Unable to hold back the sadness, I immediately hugged her. Putting my body in his warm embrace. The crystals began to wet my cheeks.

"Why should it be like this? I really hate goodbye, Rain," I said in a hoarse voice.

"Darling ...."

Rain returned my embrace, he then kissed my head. Both of his hands clenched my body. And I felt his heartbeat slow down, as if unable to hold the pain in his chest.

"I promise I'll be back. You can finish your business first" he said.

"But what if after my business is done, I can't meet you?" my many.

"Can, Ara. You can go to my country again" he replied.

"Huh? Really true?"

I can't believe what Rain said. I took off my hug and asked Rain to explain.

"Wear the royal dress and use this necklace in front of the tin tree to open the portal."

"Tin please? The one in front of my house?" ask again.

"Hem, yeah. Say it wholeheartedly while you kiss the pomegranate red crystal in this necklace. Portalpun will open."

I listened to him seriously. I need certainty about this.

"So I don't have to ride the canoe anymore? No need to go to the village and then to the ocean?" tanyaku seriously.

"No. I also arrived in front of your house. When the portal opened, the Great Elder indicated that you were in the house."

The Great Elder can tell?

I was shocked to hear Rain's story. I can't believe that now there's no need to bother going to the middle of the sea to open the portal. Just put on the royal dress that was on me and then kiss the pomegranate red crystal stone, this Rain gift necklace.

"Is it because of the tin tree?"

"I think yes. The tin tree in front of your house is connected to the tin tree on the hill of heaven."

"It's been true my guess all along."

I pensively for a moment. Little by little, the mystery began to be solved.

"Fra. I must be back. When I get back, I'll ask you right away. You want to, right?" rain asked as he looked in my direction.

I nodded, saying it with a smile. Instantly, Rain was also excited not to play. He immediately pulled my body and hugged it tightly.

"Thank you, Ara. Thank you," he said cheerfully and then kissed my bangs.

I think my heart is resolved to choose him. I really need Rain.

I'm sorry, Cloud. I don't understand why it has to be this way. I just follow my heart. Forgive me, I said in my heart.
