Shameless Prince: Our Incomplete Love Story

37 - I Will Not Force

The stretch of beach and the sea looks beautiful struck with a golden light, reflecting it like glass dancing on the surface, Suri immediately opened the car door, warm sea breeze hit her face, the wind of warm sea hit her, the typical fragrance of the beach was smelled by his nose that felt familiar and gave rise to fond memories when he was a child, immediately pounced on him.

Suri smiled slightly as she fixed her haircut that was flying around her white face, the sound of crashing waves that came and went just like that, soaking the lips of the beach with brown sand that looks smooth paddling each other spoiled leaving foam that is sincerely accepted by the beach despite how often the waves slap him.

"You awake? Have you been waiting a long time?" jared's voice rang out breaking the singing laceration of the ocean. Suri who was glued to see it immediately saw the source of his voice.

"Hmm, no, I just woke up, did I fall asleep for a long time?" ask Suri.

"No, the trip here was long enough, when I saw an ice cream shop not far from here, I bought it for you," said Jared, handing over ice cream with an ice cream cone, Suri looks at the ice cream in Jared's hand. "Let's just be calm I didn't add anything in it, you wouldn't get poisoned" Jared joked a little but his tone remained flat, hearing that made Suri smile a little.

"Thank you," Suri said, taking the ice cream, Jared said with a faint smile, and he got into his car and turned off the engine, Suri immediately enjoyed the ice cream brought by Jared, he was a little surprised, this is his favorite taste, pistachio nut ice cream.

After turning off his car, Jared immediately approached Suri, but he did not look at the woman, only looking straight at the ocean, he leaned in front of her car.

"Does that ice cream suit you?" jared asked as he glanced at Suri, her eyes were extremely beautiful even when glancing at it looking dazzling under the golden afternoon sun that no longer left a trace of its heat.

"Yes, this is my favorite taste, how do you know?" tanya Suri is still enjoying the ice cream, the atmosphere of the beach, the breeze blowing, the cool ice cream and the delicious taste of pistachios really make Suri's mood that was bad slowly calm down for a moment. Suri moved closer to Jared leaning his body in front of the car while enjoying the beautiful scenery on the quiet beach.

"Thank God if it still hasn't changed" Jared said without glancing at Suri drinking the mineral water he had bought.

Hearing that answer Suri was a little surprised, what does it mean to have not changed? did Jared know Suri's favorite taste from long ago? why does Suri not know Jared as understanding as that?, Suri is tempted to glance at the man beside him, too mysterious to be unpredictable, his attitude and behavior are opposite, and his attitude is opposite, his cold and indifferent attitude, while his behavior towards Suri felt very warm. Jared's face that looked resolute yet also handsome was completely perfectly visible from Suri's point of view now.

Maybe because the beach susana was hot and indeed for a moment Suri forgot the ice cream in her hand, the ice cream melted into her hands, making Suri shocked at the cold.

"Oh," said Suri who saw her fingers full of melted ice cream, the ice cream fell out of her hand, Jared who saw it immediately stood up. "I'm sorry, I could never eat ice cream with a cone properly, it always melted like this" Suri said, feeling embarrassing, a princess cannot eat in such a mess.

"No need to apologize, sometimes you don't have to continue being the perfect princess and do what you want to do" Jared took Suri's ice cream-covered hand and doused her with mineral water, he then took a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped Suri's hands slowly, one by one the fingers of the lentic Suri clean it until there is no wet part left of Suri's delicate hand.

Suri who saw the spontaneous things done by Jared could only be silent, he felt Jared's behavior looked very sincere, he could only be silent and accept it, as a woman, as a woman, he's flattered by Jared's behavior.

"Oh, no, this is no longer sticky, thank you," said Suri who was quite wrong behavior due to Jared's behavior earlier.

Jared let go of Suri's hand, folded back the handkerchief and immediately returned to his original position, staring at the endless ocean.

"Why did you bring me here?" ask Suri.

"Because you want to go to a quiet and lonely place, I remember you growing up on the beach, so I looked for a beach that wasn't crowded closest to this town so you could enjoy it."

"Oh so."

"Yes." Yeah."

Jared looked back at the ocean, silent unmoved, Suri dissolved again with the atmosphere of silence created, slowly he returned to thinking about Archie who was out of nowhere? his feelings that had begun to calm again churned, the atmosphere that began to darken even made his heart also darken, how missed he was with the figure of the man, his smile, his laughter, sometimes his ignorant attitude, sometimes his mischievous attitude, he missed everything that was in him.

"Suri .." said Jared breaking Suri's daydream. But Suri did not answer, only turned his face toward Jared who was still staring at the ocean that swallowed the sun an inch after an inch.

"I knew I could never replace Archie's presence beside you and I never intended to, I know you love each other and I promised Archie I wouldn't bother you both" Jared stared at Suri, his usually sharp eyes soft.

"I don't know how sick a loved one left? but I know what it's like to lose both parents, right there, in your house, right now your mom and dad are so worried about you, seeing you grim and not smiling anymore, they're so worried, they don't know what to do for you, because you can smile for them? it'll make them happy,"

Suri was silent listening to Jared's words which sounded heavy in the sound of the rumbling wind that was getting louder. Slightly hit his feelings.

"I don't know if your father has said it or not, but your father and my Uncle have a plan to match us both," Jared said, staring at Suri deeply and sharply, Suri did not know about it, he could only be shocked listening to Jared's words.

"really? you agree? I ... "Suri said completely in shock.

"Look, I'm not a pushy guy, if you only have Archie in your heart, I'll never accept this match, either, right now I'm just here to keep you company through this time and make your parents happy, if you can't smile in front of them, you can come to me crying, you can come to me, it will be more relieving, you don't be afraid, I won't take this opportunity to tease you" said Jared again, Suri who heard it at first could only be silent but soon Suri smiled.
