Ripple Water

41

It's like in a lightning strike I heard it. My tears just fell to hear it. My feet feel weak. The person I trust the most. What I consider to be my hero, it turns out that I can do it.

"You suck Prince, I've sent you stimulant drugs but you're not using them. When Yuki drinks it, you act pretentious by refusing it"

"You're meddling too much in my personal affairs Princess Marsha" Prince Sera looked coldly at Princess Marsha. "Our goal has been reached. Don't try to bother me again or Yuki. I told you I wouldn't be tolerant of you. Just prove it if you don't believe"

"What a good thing is she that you two care so much about her" Princess Marsha said annoyedly.

"Obviously, compared to you, you don't have the end of a fingernail. Riana wouldn't have gone after Yuki, if she was a woman like you"

"What do you mean ?" Princess Marsha asked with an annoyed face.

"Go right now, if Garduete finds out about this, don't you think Riana will hate you. Your life will be threatened because you're also involved in the attempted murder of the heir apparent's son"

I can't take it anymore. My footsteps shake when I step. This truth is too painful. The person I trust the most turns out he's plotting evil plans to make me lose my son.

"That's what I heard" I said as I was near them. Prince Sera turned around in surprise. Princess Marsha looked at me pale. I stared at the two, My hands trembling withstanding the turbulent emotions. "I asked if that was true ?" I said again when they were silent.

"Yuki listen to me first" Prince Sera said trying to get closer. I immediately shook his hand. Back off to avoid it.

"It's all clear, what else am I supposed to hear"

I cried terjugu. Prince Sera...I always thought it was important. The reason I had not been able to accept Prince Riana's proposal back then was because I was thinking about Prince Sera's feelings. I don't want to hurt him. I kept thinking about how I didn't hurt him with my decision. To me he is a person whose existence is so important to me. His sorrow will be my sorrow as well.

Every sorrow, every suffering I suffer He can always be my spill. His presence is like a shooting star that always brings me good luck. I don't know what I am without Him. But now...I have to hear this. For the sake of getting me he spread bad news about my womb, so I had to lose my son. For all this he sacrificed my son.

And He knew clearly how sad I felt when I lost my son. The nights I spent with tears. He behaved like a helper, but He himself put a knife in my back.

My sadness was mixed with great disappointment.

"I'm doing all this because I love you. It doesn't matter if the child isn't Riana's child I can take it by my side. But you bear the son of the heir to the throne of Garduete, if you give birth to him my path with you will end. I had to do it you had to.."

Plaque !!

I slapped Prince Sera. The prince looked at me sadly. It hurts so much. My heart hurts so much. I turned and ran away.

I ran pretty fast.

Tears continue to wash my cheeks. I got to the main gate, turned left without stopping. The innkeeper looked at me with a surprised face. I don't care, just keep going. The road in front of me was very quiet. Everyone is asleep in their own dispute.

Someone pulled me into a small alley. "Take me off...Off" I shouted in rebellion.

I opened my eyes. Stop rebelling. Prince Riana was in front of me. He looked at me worriedly.

"What's wrong with you ?. What's going on ?" The question reminded me of my sadness.

I came back crying. Tears fill my eyes. I hugged the Prince tightly. Crying in his arms. The Prince looked puzzled, But he returned my embrace. Patting my back gently to calm me down.

"Take me out of here..Take me away from here, Prince" My sister in his arms.

Prince Riana bought me a horse and a coat. He had been following me all along while hiding from Prince Sera and the kingdom of Argueda, trying to find a way to communicate with me. He was looking for a crack into the inn when he saw me running into the street.

I was raised on a horse. The prince followed later.

The footsteps of the horse rang out with the whirring of the wind. I held my head in Prince Riana's arms. We had just entered the forest when suddenly the Prince groaned in pain. I'm appalled. There was blood flowing on his shoulder. An arrow stuck there. When he looked back, Prince Sera and his army ran after us.

The arrow was shot by Prince Sera.

I can't believe He did it.

Prince Riana kept on riding horses. Resisting the pain in his shoulder.

"Down" said the Prince as We entered the dense forest. I obeyed the Prince's orders. When we were all down, his hand grabbed me. It pulled me to follow him. We ran through the bushes. While behind Us, Prince Sera's forces were still chasing after Us.

I feel like the result will not be good if Prince Riana is caught in Argueda territory let alone Now He alone without anyone's protection. The prince stopped his steps abruptly, I hit his back hard. We were on top of a pretty high waterfall. The sound of water sounds quite clear. The Prince pulled me in his arms when Prince Sera and his Soldiers caught up with Us.

We're surrounded.

"Yuki..Yuki" Call Prince Sera while extending his hand.

I shake my head in denial. Shifting my body is getting closer to Prince Riana.

"Riana gave Yuki to me"

"He's mine. I won't hand it over to anyone" Prince Riana replied firmly.

Prince Riana turned my face towards him. Hugged me tightly from behind. Her lips kissed my lips. Later then...I felt a pretty loud jolt.

Prince Riana pulled me, sliding down towards the bottom of the waterfall
