Aldora silently did not answer. He was eager to answer No, because Aldora was not sure he would be able to consider the exercise to be just an EXERCISE. But he could not say his rejection was blatantly clear given the status of the man before him now a crown prince.
"Sorry Your Majesty. But a man cannot compete with a woman even if it is just a practice" Aldora replied with a bow.
"All right, no problem. I'll just fight Leon. Come on, Leon" Riccardo yelled a little when he asked Leon to hear him.
"Do you want to be a spectator, miss?" Riccardo asked Aldora who was daydreaming about the special training ground of the king, queen, or empress.
Next to the building is a building that is almost finished. The percentage may be 98%. In between the building there is a small hallway that connects.
Riccardo glanced at what Aldora was staring at while daydreaming.
"It was the training ground of the King and Empress. But the King and Empress almost never used the building" Riccardo explained.
Aldora nodded in understanding. Yes, he understands very well.
"Miss Alvina," called Leon trying to warn Aldora to answer Riccardo's previous question.
"Hm?" Aldora replied without looking at Leon.
His current feelings are mixed again.
"Your Majesty, I still want to practice archery. His Majesty can train with Mr. Leon," Aldora said with a bow after realizing his mistake.
"All right, Leon come on" asked Riccardo as he walked inside with Leon.
After confirming that Riccardo and Leon were entering, Aldora walked towards the arrow board.
Fortunately, Riccardo had expelled all the guards from the training ground so that he could practice more freely.
Aldora stood in front of the archery board. At the pull of the arrow that stuck on the board. Aldora glanced at the King and Empress's training ground, her memory returning to a dozen years ago.
"Papa, Al also wants to have a private place like Papa's. But the place has to be next to this place, there" Aldora said, pointing to an empty spot next to his Papa's training ground.
"But Al already has a private place like Papa there," Mama Aldora pointed to the special training ground of the heir to the throne.
"Don't want to, Al doesn't want that place. It's far from Papa's. Al wants to be near Papa. Al's place must also be able to penetrate to Papa's place. Let Al be happy to exercise at Papa's place or at Al's place" Aldora said stubbornly.
Papa Aldora chuckled and squatted to match his height with his daughter.
"Yes, Papa will make it for Al wherever Al wants," said Papa Aldora while pinching his daughter's cheek gently.
"Yey, Papa is the best" Aldora said.
Mama Aldora could only smile happily at her daughter and husband.
Papa, you really fulfilled your words. If that didn't happen for sure right now I'm training in there with Papa and Uncle.
aldora said in her heart with a glued look at the building.
Al ingi went inside. But, this is not the time. Al doesn't want to make people suspicious.
Aldora said in her heart.
Trings...
A notification from Aldora's phone disbands her inner war.
Al, today Uncle is leaving. Uncle has a little business, we take good care of you. Sorry Uncle left you. But this is urgent, you still remember Uncle Vito? Yes he who has helped us a lot, Uncle Vito is currently sick and Uncle will visit him. Maybe Uncle will come back a week later.
When will Uncle leave? ~ Ask Aldora.
Uncle is at the airport. See you next week Mr. Putri. ~ reply Uncle Penrod.
Aldora put her phone in her bag and went back to where she came from and started practicing archery.
I don't know how long it's been, but the sky's been clear. But Aldora still cool with his archery practice.
Aldora glanced to the side as she sensed that someone was watching her.
"Are you done, miss?" Riccardo asked who had been watching Aldora.
Aldora put her bow and arrow to its original place signifying that she was done.
"The sun is up, do you still want to be here, miss?" Ask Riccardo.
"No, Your Majesty" Aldora replied.
"Miss, I'll treat you to lunch after that I'll take you home" Riccardo said.
"No need, Your Honor. I want to go home now, there is a sudden business" Aldora said.
"Well, one of my bodyguards will take you home" said Riccardo.
All of these bodyguards should be my bodyguards not your bodyguards.
Aldora's hands clenched and her eyes again showed immense hatred towards the young man before her.
"No need, I can be alone" Aldora said trying hard to speak calmly.
But because he could not control his expression. Aldora paid her respects and immediately left without turning her head.
Aldora did not go straight to the apartment. He chose to go to the forest which used to be his vacation spot with his parents.
From the outside, this forest always looks like a wild forest but who would have thought that in the forest it is a special place for Aldora.
Aldora went into the woods. He wanted to see the wooden house in the forest. Whether the house is still in good condition or vice versa.
The deg! aldora's heart stopped beating.
The wooden house is now in bad shape. The artificial lake surrounding the wooden house was in dry conditions. The flower garden there seemed to be ruined.
With a doubt Aldora entered the wooden house. The wooden house was still strong because it was made with the best wood but the condition of the house was very chaotic.
Aldora breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the wooden house that still looked like it was. There is a sofa in the living room, the parents room and the room is also still in good condition, the kitchen still looks beautiful. Just dusty.
Aldora picked up the broom in the house and began cleaning the wooden house.
"Great house, you can survive after a dozen years of unattended. But don't worry I'll be diligent here and will always take care of you" Aldora said speaking to the log house.
Starting from his room, kitchen, living room, his parents' room, and his Papa Aldora's workplace has been cleaning it up.
He went out of the wooden house and started cleaning the courtyard around his wooden house.
This wooden house holds many memories as well for him and his parents. The only one who knew this place was his parents and himself.
According to the story of Papa Aldora, this place was made specifically by Papa Aldora as a wedding gift for Mama Aldora. And every once a month the three of them would stay in that log house.
