The Journey of Eternity

The Journey of Eternity
Trace 23 - Child.



The four of them ate together in the room, Arlo was forced to answer all the questions from the two parents in front of him. While Eri just continue to eat, because it seems all the food at the table is Eri's favorite.


“Alright Miss Eri, do you know who we are?”


“You are the Queen and King of this region, as well as Arlo's parents. And I don't know”


The two people in front of Eri chuckled, then finally explained who they were.


“So this brat didn't tell ya..? basic thing! I thought after meeting could get closer to him” the Queen covered her face annoyed.


“It's true I was Ordil Arlo's father. Then she was the Queen of this region, Aliyla Bharat. We are Arlo's parents, so please don't be too formal on us, it feels quite sad if our daughter behaves like that on us” Arlo's father replies seriously to Eri.


“alah tu.. alright Ayah” replied Eri hesitated.


Everyone continued eating in silence until the meal was over. The Queen had promised to return to give new orders to some ministers there after dinner was over. He left the dining room and hurried back to his place, while Arlo's father led his two children in another direction. Along the hallway, it feels like the ambient temperature has decreased and become slightly cooler than before. At the end of the hall was a bright light and a room was visible.


There were already two girls who were no strangers to Arlo waiting at the door of the room. The two girls warmly welcomed their master who had not returned for a long time.The room was Arlo's only old room since he had lived here. A more mature woman has been caring for Arlo for ten years since he was born. But a few years after he returned from his Father's Kingdom because it was considered dead, the woman was never seen and replaced these two girls.


“The two of you, will be helped by both of them, of course you know who they both are Arlo. All right I have to go to something place, good night.”


“Yah. good night.” Arlo walked into the room by himself without caring about anyone.


The two girls approached Eri and questioned many things next to him until Eri lost his mind. While Arlo who was sitting on the mattress just looked curiously at the three of them who were just huddling is not clear. Then after Eri explained a sentence, the two girls left Arlo with Eri.


Arlo approached and looked out the door, but the two of them were already nowhere to be seen. Eri chuckles at Arlo and goes to sit on the bed. He patted the bed next to him, calling Arlo to sit next to him. Arlo sat down and lay down beside Eri.


“Didn't you bring Arlo's change of clothes, it looks like you only have two?”


Arlo got up and looked at the piece, his face looking a little surprised. Then immediately he opened every drawer in the closet and looked for something there. Until all the drawers are checked, but it looks like Arlo did not find the item he was looking for. Then Arlo sat down and lay down on his bed, he looked at the ceiling and closed his eyes. Arlo thought about what happened before Arlo left this place.


“there are still some items and clothes in my closet but something I'm looking for is not”


“What are you looking for Arlo?”


“Tikar, Miku! Bany!”


“Ya.!” the two girls who went somewhere earlier, came back quickly and answered his Master's call. After a while on the call, the two girls came quickly and went straight into the room.


“Tikar..!"


Hearing Arlo's words, the two girls nodded and cpat darted out of the room and vanished without any sound left. Arlo just nodded in pride himself beside Eri.


“No.. Miss must quickly shower before late night”


Eri nodded and immediately entered the bathroom carrying a change of clothes. While Arlo outside waiting for the two girls to return to bring his request. The room was large enough for a bedroom. The room was divided into two with a slightly wider bedroom compared to the bathroom.


After a while of waiting, finally the two girls returned and brought a mat that was wide enough. As Arlo planned, the mat was in the title next to the mattress and Arlo picked up one of the pillows on the mattress, the two girls were silent and confused by what the Master was doing.


“What? It's already! Your work is done, you can come back. Thanks for the matnya”


“Good.” along with the two girls saying goodbye and leaving the room by closing the door of the room.


After a while, Eri came out of the bathroom and put on a white long-sleeved suit. She looked so beautiful and shone because of the reflection of the light in the room. Arlo was a little embarrassed to see Eri and did not dare to look at her.


“What's Arlo?. Take a quick shower!, and you have to drive me!” Eri walked up to the table and combed her hair in front of the mirror. Arlo steals a kiss on Eri's cheek and runs to the bathroom.


Eri was only silent for a moment, he did not know that he was actually upset or even happy because of Arlo's kiss. Finished combing her hair, Eri looked around and peered out the window. The window is small enough that it is quite difficult for moonlight to enter. The room is on the second floor of the castle on the right side.


Eri only daydreamed at the beautiful moonlight that night. Since the room was quite high, then the range to see was also quite far. From the window of the room, Eri could see a lady sitting in the garden alone. Seen from afar, she wears a white dress and her yellow horns look daydreaming something there.


Moments after that, Arlo came out of the bathroom wearing only shorts and wiped his hair with a towel. Then he looked for the clothes that were in the previous drawer. Eri looks shy with Arlo who only wears shorts behind him and does not dare to look back.


“Arlo.. Why are you changing clothes here!” Eri is shocked and yells at Arlo.


“Yeah, I've been used to doing it here. This is reflex, besides that I also forgot to bring a change of clothes when entering the bathroom because it was” Arlo replied casually while wearing his clothes behind Eri.


Eri had run out of reasons to get angry at Arlo and just stared at the window to see the girl sitting in the park earlier. Unfortunately, the girl was gone. Eri again approached Arlo and sat next to him on the mattress after he finished wearing his clothes.


“You why?” arlo's face looked very silly looking at Eri. Instantly after Arlo looked at Eri, Eri hit him from the front and shouted.


“Do not.. see me like that Arlo.” Eri looks a little scared by Arlo's silly face.


“You said you wanted to drive, where?”


“Antar I'm out, in the park.”


“Night like this?”


Eri looks pouted and folds his hands to Arlo's back. Seeing that, Arlo smiled and teased him, he touched Eri's small stomach and Eri was surprised and also laughed with Arlo. Arlo gets up from his seat and extends his hand to Eri to escort him out.


“So.. let's go Miss, I'll be sleepy tonight and I'll leave myself there hihi.”
