The Love of a Prince

Chapter 33. The Backward Schedule

"I think I'm interrupting your conversation." Prince Albert's voice suddenly rang out, making Laura and Edward slightly surprised and simultaneously turned their heads toward the arrival of the voice.

Prince Albert leaned leisurely on the door frame while folding his hands over his chest.

Edward immediately moved away to the corner of the room keeping his distance while Laura immediately stood up.

"Sorry Your Majesty, I didn't hear you knocking on the door." Laura said with a guilty feeling.

"You didn't hear it because I didn't knock on the door and why did I have to knock on the door in my own house ?" Prince Albert said in an offended voice.

"That's not what I mean, Your Majesty don't misunderstand." Feeling her words wrong awkwardly Laura immediately corrected.

Edward, who saw the situation of Laura who was cornered, felt kasian and wanted to help but he realized it was not the place to speak.

"I did not realize your arrival because I did not hear the sound of your coming, not the intention of offending you Your Majesty." Laura gave an explanation.

"I don't want to talk about it anymore, I'm just here to tell you something." Prince Albert said as he approached Laura.

"What is Your Majesty ?"

Prince Albert stopped right in front of Laura, holding out his hand holding Laura's long hair.

"After dinner, we'll have guests."

"Who ?"

"Designers who will bring some dresses for you to choose from that you will wear tomorrow night."

"Isn't the banquet tonight ?" Laura asked a little confused by Prince Albert's words.

"His banquet was postponed because of something important, which is why Prince Eric called me to meet." Prince Albert is.

"It turns out that way." Laura muttered a little disappointed, she was disappointed to be there longer.

"Is there a problem ?" Prince Albert asked with a curious face as soon as he heard Laura's reaction.

"Nothing Your Majesty, everything's fine."

"Then it's better you clean yourself up soon because the dinner time won't be long."

" Good Your Majesty." Laura said obediently.

Without saying any more, Prince Albert turned away leaving Laura and Edward still standing in their respective places.

Edward walked up to Laura after Prince Albert's back was no longer visible to them.

"Why do you look so disappointed ?" edward asked, and Laura would answer.

Laura breathed a heavy sigh. "His banquet was delayed making me stay here longer."

"You don't like being here longer, does anything make you feel uncomfortable ?"

"Of course I don't like it but I can't refuse not to go with Prince Albert and what makes me uncomfortable is Prince Albert himself." Complain Laura.

"If it's with him, I can't choose and make my own decisions. Everyone should follow his words." Added Laura.

Edward put on a sorry face. "Sorry Miss Laura, I can't do anything for you if you're with Prince Albert."

"It's okay, Edward, it's not your fault. I understand your situation."

"Thank you Miss Laura." Said Edward even though still with a somber tone in response to a nod of the head by Laura.

"I'd better go back to the room to clean myself up before dinner time."

Laura stepped with an excited face towards her room. As soon as she arrived inside the room, Laura stared at the small clock that was on the bedside nightstand.

"It looks like I can soak in the bathtub for a while." Murmured Laura.

Tok

I heard knocking on the door from outside.

"Lock !" Laura Excited.

The door opened, the maid appeared from behind the door.

"Sorry Miss Laura, Prince Albert ordered you to serve Miss Laura who wants to clean up." The waiter explained the meaning of his appearance.

"None right."

The waiter walked in and closed the door from inside.

"Wait a minute."

The waiter's step towards the bathroom door came to a halt upon hearing Laura's cry. "Is there anything else you need Miss ?" the waiter looked at Laura.

"If there's any help lighting an aromatherapy candle near the bathtub for me."

"Well Miss, is there anything else ?"

Laura shook her head. "Nothing, that's all."

"I'll work on it soon." The waiter smiled kindly before stepping back towards the bathroom.

Waiting for the waiter to prepare his bath water, Laura took a cell phone and intended to call her parents.

Thuuuut thuuuut thuuuut

The phone connection is connected on the third ring.

"Hallo darling." Say Mom as soon as the phone line is connected.

"Hallo Mama." Reply Laura took a sitting position beside the bed.

"Mama's waiting for your call from yesterday." Mom said from across.

"Sorry Mama, Ara forgot to call Mama. Yesterday Ara was so tired that she forgot to call me." Laura said in a regretful tone.

"It's okay, baby, Mama understands."

"Why didn't Mama just call me yesterday if she was worried about me ?"

"Mama's worried about bothering."

"Disturbing ? you mean Mama ?" Laura asked, confused.

"You're traveling with Prince Albert now. Mama was afraid when she called you, you were with her and maybe it would bother her so it's better if you call first." Mom explained.

Laura nodded in understanding even though Mama from across did not see her. "Ara understands Mama."

"So when are you going home ?"

"His banquet is postponed until tomorrow Mama." Laura said grimly.

"Why can I delay Ara ?"

"Either Mama, Prince Albert only said because there was something important so that his banquet was postponed. Ara did not dare to ask any further."

"You sound unhappy, why ? is there a problem ?"

"No Mama, only Mama would know I came because I was forced and plus the trip this time was getting longer because the banquet was delayed making me even more unhappy."

"His banquet is only in a day delay Ara, maybe after that you will go straight home. Prince Albert also has a busy schedule here." Mom comforting.

"Hopefully it is like that." Laura hopes.

"Had Mama, Ara was going to take a shower soon after dinner." Added.

"Yes, go take a shower." Mom said before the phone call broke.

Not long after that the waiter appeared from inside the bathroom.

"Miss Laura, your bath water is ready. You'd better take a shower before the water gets cold."

"Thank you." Said Laura smilingly rising up from her sitting.

"Together Miss." Reply The waiter smiled kindly.

The waiter left Laura's room.

Laura stepped into the bathroom that had been wrapped in aromatherapy, removing clothes before entering the bathtub that had been filled with warm water.

"AH...... !" Laura subconsciously sighed long, feeling relieved as it relaxed a little more once the warm water touched her body.
