“It's an honor for me to be facing Your Highness”.
Risa smiled faintly but her eyes contained a thousand meanings. The eagle's eyes stared at the girl in front of him in silence making everyone there feel the cold piercing to the bone.
“There's a purpose for which princess Jasmin came to see me”.
“Previously forgive me for coming in while you are busy, it's just that I want to apply”. Slowly Jasmin took a breath and then looked forward.
“I...”.
“If the contents of your application are related to Claude you better forget it. You're wasting your time”.
“But I...”.
“Daughter Jasmin aren't you a princess from an Arab kingdom, looking for a man isn't that hard, is it? Why are you so obsessed with other people?”.
Matt checkmate.
Jasmin was silent but a second later his face changed, his jaw hardened with sharp eyes. This made Risa smile.
“Oho looks like you're starting to be a wild girl hm? I'm guessing you're the same as Viona, have fun for now, miss but remember not to play with fire. You can get hurt”.
“Why are you so confident that Claude will choose you, I know him better than you”. Risa let out a small laugh hearing Jasmin speak in a harsh tone.
“Nona Jasmin looks like you've gone too far”. Strictly Steven let out a voice.
“Leave it Stev, isn't this interesting”. Risa stopped Steven's steps with a swing of her hand.
“Jasmin you just need to know that my confidence exceeds your selfishness”.
“Oh yes what if one day Claude and I get married? You surrender?”.
“Even in my dreams you won't get a piece of nails”.
“We'll see later, who will laugh later”.
“Challenge accepted”.
“Remember Your Highness this fight between two women”.
“Do not underestimate me miss, this girl is better than you think”.
“Cih good if so. I permisi”. Then he turned around.
So many times Risa threw out a heavy breath while massaging her throbbing head.
“Your Highness you should not do this”.
“Steven. What would you do if someone took your valuables?”.
“Maybe I will do the same just that at this time your status is no longer a young miss but a queen”.
“Take it easy. It doesn't affect my work, you just have to shut up and look at Stev”.
“I beg you to stay at the limit Your Highness, stop if one day you are tired”.
“Why do I feel you're as chatty as my mom”.
“Even I can be your father if need”. Pissed Steven in a slow tone and only the two of them heard it.
“Mom your so noisy”.

♫ Insomnia Song Lyric
*I never thought that I’d fall in love, love, love, love.
But it grew from a simple crush,crush,crush,crush.
Being without you girl, I was all messed up, up, up, up.
When you walked out, said that you’d had enough-nough-nough-nough-nough.
*Been a fool, girl I know
Didn’t expect this is how things would go
Maybe in time, you’ll change your mind
Now looking back I wish I could rewind
**because I can’t sleeping til you’re next to me
No I can’t live without you no more
Til this house feels like it before
Feels like insomnia ah..
Remember telling my boys that I’ never fall in love.. love.
You used to think I’d never find a girl i could trust.. trust...
And then you walked into my life and it was all about us. us. us.
But now I’m sitting here thinking I messed the whole thing up. up..
Ah I just can’t go to sleep
Cause it feels like I’ve fallen for you
It’s getting way too deep
And I know that it’s love because*..
Steven turned off the speaker whose voice filled the room and then took the blanket from Irene's hand. His feet stepped closer to the desk where a girl was fast asleep.
The time showed at 04:00 am and Risa was at her desk from the afternoon after leaving the city.
Steven slowly enveloped the tiny body and then carried it ala bridal style. Take him to the room and lay him on a king-size bed. Covering up to the chest limit then stepped out.
“You look tired Stev”. Irene followed him from behind.
“I'm fine”.
“Eat first new after that sleep, I will prepare”.
“Thank you Irene as usual you were so good.”.
“Don't seduce me. Quickly walk you lamban”.
Steven chuckled then set foot into the kitchen where several maids and chefs began to work. Steven settled himself on one of the benches right next to the maid-clothed pretty girl.
“Let me guess, are you staying up again Mr. Stev”.
“That's. Risa just fell asleep after finishing her job”.
“As usual Your Highness always work hard”. His kekeh returned to continue his breakfast-too-fingers.
“Hai Flo I didn't see you earlier”. Irene came to bring Steven breakfast.
“It was me, always missed everyone's sight”.
“Who told you to have a short body”. Flo snorted in annoyance for a second then hit Steven's arm.
“Master Stev you praise me too”.
“Are you not supposed to be flattered? Why hit me”.
“Haha don't make me laugh mister”.
Steven began to eat his breakfast while Irene bailed to her room.
“Master Stev may I ask?”.
“Tell me”.
“Hmm is that are you okay?”.
“What do you mean?”.
“You've been with Your Higness since she was a child, all kinds of problems you've had to protect her. Aren't you tired?”.
For a moment Stev stopped his activities and then looked away.
“Hmm So far I'm fine. My burden isn't as heavy as you think considering I'm also good friends with young master Xavier, so it feels like I'm more like looking after a little sister”.
“Oh yes? Have you ever had any trouble? Especially when Your Highness is involved in romance issues like this”.
“If you mean I'm bored then my answer is yes. Who doesn't get tired of keeping a girl for years. It's just that I'm used to her childishness and carelessness. Because without anyone realizing the little girl who is now a queen is just a lonely little man. Even though he was born rich but all that is not enough because deep in his heart terdaoat big hole nan empty”.
Steven smiled slightly then looked at his sweet food.
“In public he looks very cheerful but when his own water turns into his good friend. Even I still clearly remember a little girl who has a different nature than a child in general. Interesting isn't?”.
“Why do I feel you like it so much”.
“Bernarkah?”.
“You gave me goosebumps sir. Don't tell me you really like Your Highness Larrisa. Remember your age base old grandparents”.
