Since the risotto breakfast incident, the relationship between Prince and Alice became warm. They begin to show each other interest. Even if it is not expressed in words.
This morning, the Prince suddenly got a task from the King to conduct an inspection of the territory. Inevitably, Prince Erland had to obey.
When Alice finished making breakfast, the Prince immediately asked the servant to pack his service. “Alice, please prepare my official needs for five days!”
A pair of Alice's eyelids opened wide upon hearing the Prince's orders. He was a little shocked and wanted to know where the Prince was going.
However, as her mouth opened about to issue a question sentence, Alice realized that her position did not have any right to it. All he did was finally obey and nod.
“Good, Your Majesty!”
Although his mouth and lips were smiling, he immediately obeyed the order to prepare the Prince's needs. However, the curious and worried expression Alice showed could not lie.
Apparently, Alice's facial expression, which was filled with question marks, could easily be read by Prince Erland. It made the Prince's heart go back.
The Crown Prince of Warlingtoon Kingdom approached Alice who was busy preparing clothes and standing nearby. “Alice, I will go briefly to Wolford city for region inspection. The king asked me to check the city government there which received many complaints from the people,” explained the Prince tried to eliminate the unrest on Alice's face.
Prince Erland's actions were certainly not something he was used to. Though, she did not need to tell Alice that because Alice was just a servant.
Alice looked at the Prince with a confused face. Even though what the Prince said was the answer to the question that popped into his head, the Prince still shouldn't have done that.
Alice's gaze in fact made Prince Erland a little embarrassed and only realized with his words. He felt like he was asking permission with his girlfriend to leave because of the King's orders.
Seeing the Prince's embarrassed face, Alice immediately refused to melt the awkwardness between them. “Good, Your Highness Prince. I pray that the Prince is safe to arrive at the destination and his inspection goes smoothly.”
Prince Erland smiled and guaranteed Alice a heartfelt prayer.
“Please take care of your health and do not get sick. Although His Highness the Prince could not taste the cooking of others, I hope the Prince kept eating,” continued Alice with teary eyes.
The girl certainly felt sad and worried about her prince who would be gone for quite a long time. However, this was an order from the King, a servant like Alice would not be able to do anything to prevent the Prince from leaving, nor offer to come along.
Prince Erland felt touched by the attention Alice gave through those words. He smiled and touched Alice's arm, thanking her.

Alice was walking in a hurry. In his hand there is a bag of warm food and also a snack that has just been cooked.
The beautiful woman approached the driver of Prince Erland and asked permission to put the food box in the car. A moment later, he hurriedly left for fear of being discovered by the other members of the kingdom.
When Prince Erland got into the car, he was surprised to see the bag in his car. The small pink bag contained a roll of paper with a red ribbon tied to the rope.
“This what?” ask the prince to the driver. As a member of the kingdom, of course he could not carelessly open something that might endanger his safety.
“That's from Alice, Your Honor,” replied the driver as he closed the car door.
“Hemm!”
Frowning and holding back a smile, the handsome young man unrolled the paper and read the letter from Alice.
Congratulations on your service, Your Honor. I bring provisions so that I can accompany His Majesty's journey later.
From Alice.
Prince Erland's face blushed again and he became nervous after reading a letter from Alice. While continuing to smile, the Prince began to keep the letter from Alice as well as a very valuable treasure.

The prince did his job very well. However, it was not uncommon for the figure of the beautiful maid to haunt his mind to make the man smile himself.
Like at the moment, for example. The prince was taking a walk in the center of the city to look around. He passed by the jewelry store and saw a necklace that caught the Prince's attention. He imagined a necklace with a pink diamond pendant curled beautifully around Alice's neck.
Without thinking for a long time, Prince Erland also bought a necklace that cost the equivalent of a car. He will present the necklace to Alice when she returns to the palace later.
During the distance, both Prince and Alice felt the rotation of time that felt long, especially Alice who became lonely without her prince. They began to be buffeted by a longing wind that made the days feel bitter.
However, now they do not need to feel the hot longing anymore. The prince had returned to the palace and the servant immediately greeted him with a treat of tea and light cake.
It was already night when the Prince and his personal servant met. So, Alice did not cook any special food.
Honestly watched by Alice, the Prince's heart felt touched. Although it was all Alice's job.
The man enjoyed the waiter's meal with a smiling face. His eyes occasionally glanced at Alice who was waiting patiently.
As soon as she finished, Alice swiftly cleaned the dishes and glasses of Prince Erland's former meal. Without the woman knowing, suddenly the Prince put a necklace on Alice's neck and made her jerk in shock.
Alice, surprised, immediately looked back and looked at the Prince.
“Ya-Your Majesty, i-this what?” alice asked with a trembling voice. His heart seemed to jump when the Prince even brought his face closer and made their noses touch each other.
“This is a gift for you,” replied Prince Erland with cheeks met. The trap turned out to be right, the necklace looked even more beautiful when hanging from Alice's neck.
“Your Majesty, isn't this an exaggeration? I'm just a waiter and it doesn't feel like I deserve a gift like this from the Prince!” reject Alice with a nervous face.
Rejecting a royal order is an offense. However, the gift that the Prince gave him was also not worthy of him.
Prince Erland did not care at all about Alice's refusal. She revolves around her personal servant and observes Alice's appearance with her new necklace.
“What do you like?” ask Prince.
Alice fell silent, then slowly began to nod her head.
Just as Alice nodded, Prince Erland saw Alice blushing at the necklace around her neck. Then, a sentence flashed in Prince Erland's mind. “She's mine, and the necklace is her sign!”
