Shameless Prince: Our Incomplete Love Story

174 - Happy News for the Queen Mother.

Archie was silent in his room, staring at the window of his room that showed the view of the pool, he just silently stared at it for hours, holding tightness in the chest that somehow felt.

In her memory she could see the woman's ridiculous behavior, Archie had been waiting for her, long enough to just want suddenly the woman to come up with her crazy ideas, her face being annoyed whenever Archie spoke to her, or the crazy words he used to say, why is Archie so anxious about all that right now?

Did Archie really make him angry and have to leave him alone, not even want to say anything to him? Why should I just leave? why not berate her first self like she used to do, even now that Ceyasa had come just to revile her, Archie promised not to retaliate. Why was he so quick to miss that woman figure now?

Archie's long daydream halted for a moment hearing the sound of a slow knock on his bedroom door, Archie took a deep breath, with a heavy voice he replied.

"Come in."

The door slowly opened, Gerald peeked for a moment, looking for where Archie's figure was, finally he found it near the window of his room, sitting still.

"What's wrong?" archie asked flatly and coldly, there was no spirit from his tone, as if his spirit had simply disappeared.

"It's late in the afternoon, you haven't even eaten anything since this morning, eat it, don't torture yourself" Gerald said after closing the door slowly so he could freely talk to Archie.

"Do you know where he's going?" asked Archie flinching in his seat, staring straight at the pool that was quickly covered by a dim night, at first he did not want to look for the woman, his ego was big enough to control his mind, and his ego was quite large, but the longer, the more he couldn't let the woman go, if indeed he wanted to leave, Archie would have to talk to her first.

"Not yet, don't know where he's going, but I'm sure he doesn't want you to be like this either, he just doesn't want to go back to being your burden, maybe what you said yesterday was enough for him, Because people who don't like to burden others, they must be very guilty of all these things," Gerald said again trying to give understanding to Archie, listen to the whole chronology of Archie and Ceyasa's quarrel yesterday from Lusy. It made sense for Ceyasa to leave Archie after blaming him.

Archie fell silent, he was really sorry for saying the blame, did not know that he was quite used to the presence of the cheerful chatty girl, without which somehow it felt very lonely, not knowing that he was quite used to the presence of the cheerful chatty girl, the girl who always made him upset but because of that he forgot all his sadness and suffering of his life.

"Come on, we're having dinner, and your Papa and your mom are asking how you are, they're saying even if you're home, you don't see them at all," gerald said again what Nakesha had told him, Nakesha was a little worried about Archie's situation, they thought Archie was still trapped by a shadow about his broken relationship with Suri, they don't know of anyone else who's intruding on Archie's mind.

"Well, I'll go home now, get the car ready," Archie said, standing and turning his body towards Gerald, Gerald could see the disappointed hue, waiting all day just hoping for Ceyasa to go home and scold him, but the woman seemed lost in the fog, the trail was difficult to trace.

"Don't want to eat first?" asked Gerald again, Archie who was pretending to fix his clothes because he did not want Gerald to see his disappointed face immediately shut up.

"I just ate with my family" Archie said.

Gerald was standing in the front yard of Archie's house, he had his car ready, waiting for Archie to come down to get him back to the palace, the dimness of the night was almost gone, letting the dark cover its light slowly let the garden light replace the light a little bit.

Before long Archie came, seemingly walking towards Gerald with his silent face, he glanced slightly at Gerald, Gerald gave a faint smile, but Archie did not reply, he just got into the car that Gerald had opened, Gerald closed the door slowly, not to worry about it because he knew how Archie was doing now, didn't want to waste time, Gerald got into the front seat of the car and they got out of there.

The journey to the palace from the housing was quite slow, several times had to be trapped by the crowds of the streets, but in the car it was only silent, not a single one dared to open his mouth, he said, even if a falling needle would be heard, Gerald noticed Archie who looked clasped on the window of his car, noticing the bustle of the road that did not bother him at all, Gerald let Archie enjoy it, Gerald let Archie, he doesn't know what to do.

----***----

Bella sits in the middle room of the prince's palace, sitting like her daughter she is waiting for Queen Mother Ayana, she has to tell about the reception of Jofan's proposal and the engagement of Jared and Suri.

She slightly smiled when she saw the Queen Mother walking a little stifled, out held by Nakesha who patiently walked beside her, Queen Ayana's mother who looked fresher today she immediately returned Bella's smile, Bella stood up to welcome her, Nakesha helped the Queen's mother to sit on a single sofa in the middle.

"Good Night Her Majesty The Queen's Mother" said Bella giving a very graceful greeting.

"Sit down Bella," the old, trembling voice rang out, her health has recently deteriorated.

"Thank You Queen Mother" said Bella with her sweet smile, Nakesha sitting across from Bella, sitting with her manners, "how is the Queen's Mother?"

"Good enough today, I'm too old for all these things, maybe it's near the time I meet my family again who have gone before," said the Queen Mother with a little chatter.

"Mother, don't say that," said Nakesha softly, making the sight of Queen Mother Ayana who had been sad a little narrowed because her big smile was staring at Nakesha.

"I won't leave if you keep wanting me like that" Queen Ayana's mother said again, her age was enough to make her senile, not to mention the drugs she used to get, it's enough to make him act like a kid sometimes.

"We always want the Queen Mother to be here, let alone the happy news I want to tell the Queen Mother" Bella said slowly, slowly and gently.

"Yes?" the Queen Mother said in a soft voice, her wrinkled old face looking so happy, as if she could guess what Bella wanted to say.
