NOT THE USUAL CINDERELLA (Season 2)

SPLIT UP FOR A WHILE

"Then, I beg your Majesty. I need to get back to the special forces training camp tonight. So that tomorrow morning I'm ready to take part in training with duke Evan." After seeing Deanda smile again, Alexis immediately said goodbye to Alvero who immediately turned his eyes from Deanda's face towards Alexis again.

"Alright Pa. Be careful on the road. Thank you for helping to train the special forces well. It's just that there is one more thing that Papa needs to remember well from now on. It seems that from today on Papa must remember, that now I am a son-in-law to Papa. So, for the next time, Papa doesn't have to use formal language on me and can just call me by my name." A smile that still looked awkward was seen on Alexis' face, upon hearing Alvero's request.

For Alexis, it was not only Alvero's request as a son-in-law, but also as a king. And that's an absolute order for an Alexis.

"I.. I. will try Yang... uh, Alv…. Ah, it's hard." Alexis said in a disjointed voice, even accompanied by her slightly flushed face, making the others instantly laugh amusedly, saying, seeing how nervous and wrong the figure of Alexis who usually always appear so bold, firm and dashing.

"Did you forget my name? Why is it so hard to say my name that the whole Gracetian people, even the kindergarten kids, know my name?" Alvero's words made Deanda even more amused, making her involuntarily smile widely, indicating tonight she felt so happy as well as relieved.

It felt as if his body had just slipped from such a heavy burden, making his heart feel so light.

"Ah, of course not Yang... Well, I mean my.. yes... of course a.. I know clearly your name... Alvero's." Like a little boy who had just learned to read, once he could correctly pronounce Alvero's name, Alexis seemed to take a deep breath, then exhaled through his lips in a relieved manner, making an unconscious, Deanda also smiled with relief at seeing that.

Letting go of forgiveness really does make people feel peaceful and calm. I'm really glad I could do that without delaying it any longer. I'm really lucky and should be grateful, papa who I thought was long gone, came back to me.

Deanda said inwardly, keeping an amused look at Alexis, who still felt so awkward to mention Alvero's name without any glorious frills in front of him.

"I beg you, don't tease papa anymore, he's a person who isn't used to being seduced like that." Deanda clasped her feet, and whispered in a voice so softly to Alvero's ears that she immediately smiled and leaned her head towards Deanda.

"Your words about Papa Alexis remind me of someone who used to always look so serious in front of me, so I can't stand it if I don't tease her when I'm around her." Alvero replied to Deanda's whisper as softly as possible before she finally re-energized her body again, leaving a smile and a face that turned red with embarrassment to Deanda.

"Alright Pa, it's night, you better come back and rest. If you need something there, Papa can directly contact me or Enzo.” Alvero again reminded Alexis of his position as a son-in-law who would be happy to help if needed.

"alright. Take good care of Deanda, as well as the baby in your belly, so that she can grow up healthy and strong. Growing up perfectly. To be the pride of all the people of the Gracetian kingdom." Alexis said as his eyes looked down at Deanda's stomach, which had suddenly removed itself from Alvero's arms, walking closer towards Alexis.

"He would have been happy if his grandfather had said that to him later when he had already started to be able to hear outside sounds." Hearing Deanda's words, it really made Alexis almost come back to shed tears.

And this time it was a happy tear for Alexis. Her chest felt so full of joy and happiness because of Deanda's actions and words to her just now.

"I'll call you often. And I'll visit you if there's a chance of free time in the midst of a busy training schedule." Alexis said as she pulled her hand reluctantly from the stomach of Deanda who was now carrying her future granddaughter.

"I'll always look forward to it Pa. Take good care of yourself, Pa." Deanda said softly while kissing both cheeks of Alexis before letting her turn her body and stepping away away from the villa.

"Ok, now can we spend the night chatting until dawn?" Enzo immediately said in a voice that sounded so excited, once the figure of Alexis was out of sight.

"Ck ck ck. Is it that we are unemployed like you who can be as nice as his stomach to come to your hotel to work or not? Under the Adalvino company there are dozens of large companies with hundreds of thousands of employees, even millions, where can we live as leisurely as you?" Alvero immediately followed Enzo's invitation with lips pursed forward.

"Ah, that's right, that's why I'm grateful to have never been born a Gracetian crown prince. Otherwise, I might die young with a bald head condition and with a history of heart disease." Enzo said followed by a loud laugh, making Alvero quickly snap Enzo's forehead, while Alaya and Deanda could only smile at how the two descendants of Adalvino were making fun of each other.

"Okay. look at Alaya. Be careful near your sister. In front of other people, he was seen as a king who was so authoritative and wise, when he liked to torture weak people like me." Enzo said as he moved his body away from Alvero, and approached towards Alaya, as if intentionally doing so to seek allies.

"Haist.. You little Enzo! If you continue to think of yourself as weak, I will actually meet earl Robin." Hearing Alvero's words, Enzo immediately walked closer to Alvero.

"Eits.. Don't get mad at Alvero. Melva's business, let me finish it myself. Come Alaya, you better be the one who accompanied me to chat tonight. Looks like your brother and sister-in-law are still willing to celebrate the presence of the future heir to the throne tonight." Alvero immediately glared sharply at Enzo's temptation.

"Alaya, don't listen to your cousin's brother on that one. Don't you have to go back to work tomorrow? You better rest now. Tomorrow I'll have Ernest drive you back to Tavisha, don't drive public transport like you did when you came to Renhill." Alvero said as he looked towards Alaya who immediately nodded her head, agreeing to what Alvero had said just now.

However, now that Alvero's younger brother is open, Alaya must begin to get used to listening to Alvero's advice as an older brother, as well as the king of Gracetian.
