THE LOVE STORY OF THE HEIR TO THE THRONE

The expected answer

It had been three days that Arezz had a fever, and during that time Evina had always been by his side to take care of him.

Arezz has asked permission from Boss Alberto so that he, Sakti and Evina can miss work.

This afternoon Evina seemed to visit Arezz at his residence about to see his condition.

''How are you doing?'' ask Evina.

''I've been fine, thanks to you who always take care of me sincerely, Arezz replied with a fixed look at the face of Evina who is now sitting next to him.

''Thank God.'' Evina replied briefly.

''That means from now on I don't have to take care of you anymore.

''Am I able to collect your promise to ask for answers to my feelings, '' said Arezz still in a state of looking at the pretty face of Evina.

Evina was silent, she had promised to give an answer to Arezz's love statement a few days ago.

''Later if you are completely healed, then I will give the answer, ''' Evina replied giving an excuse.

''Now that I've completely recovered, Arezz stands up and walks in place, showing Evina that her body is completely healthy.

Evina smiled amusedly at Arezz's funny behavior, she grabbed Arezz's hand and asked him to stop, because if arezz did that then his body would get sick again.

At last Arezz stopped, now he stood right opposite Evina.

Evina seemed misbehaved and a little nervous as Arezz stood very close to her.

''Don't make me wait too long Ev, I mean it with my feelings, '' Arezz said with a serious face.

''Seriously you want to hear the answer now?'' asked Evina trying to buy time.

Arezz nodded.

Then Evina took one step forward in front of Arezz, her legs were on tiptoes and her face was brought closer to Arezz's face and then...

Cuupa....

Evina kisses Arezz's lips.

''This is my answer, '' he said then immediately ran away leaving Arezz who just stood there.

Arezz's face looked red, his hands palpating his lips that had just come into contact with Evina's tiny lips.

For more than 10 minutes Arezz stood with a blank look, until finally Sakti approached him and disperse his daydream.

''Prince, why are you?'' Sakti wiggled her body.

''Haaah... What...'' Arezz little Ter stutters.

''Are you okay? why does your face look red?'' Sakti asked back.

Then Arezz touched his face with both hands and said that he was fine.

Then Arezz laid his body on the mattress, while continuing to feel his face and lips, he tried to control his heartbeat that had been irregular.

''Are you sure you are okay?''

Arezz just nodded.

Actually he wanted to ask Sakti about what had just been in nature, about Evina's answer which only gave a small kiss on her lips.

But he was too embarrassed to ask this, he did not want to be laughed at by Sakti like that time.

''Prince, like him I will go down the street, to look for leaflets that may still be there that have not been released, ''' said Sakti.

''Alright, I leave this matter to you, Arezz replied.

Then Sakti left Arezz, not forgetting he also used a hat and mask so that no one could recognize him.

***

Evina seemed to be sitting pensively, she recalled the incident when she bravely kissed Arezz's lips.

Why would he do that? indeed, the incident was very unexpected, because he did not intend to do it at all.

You stupid idiot

Evina cursed to herself, then hugged both knees and lowered her head above her knees.

Until finally the sound of knocking disperse the daydream.

Evina heard three knocks on the door, then she got up and walked to the door and opened it.

''Arezz.'' said Evina.

''Hi...'' Arezz just waved his hand with a clumsy smile.

''What's here?'' asked the same Evina in her clumsiness with Arezz.

''Can I come in first?'' pinta Arezz as she was still standing in front of the door.

''Oh he please come in.''

Then the two of them sat side by side with only a thick red carpet.

For about 10 minutes the two of them just fell silent without saying anything. Until Evina finally broke the silence by starting the conversation first.

''I'm sorry for surprising you, '' said Evina.

''It's okay, even though I was really surprised and completely clueless with the meaning of the answer you gave just now, Arezz replied with a hint of embarrassment.

''You don't understand?'' ask Evina.

Arezz nodded.

Evina laughed a little.

''You have never dated?''

Arezz shook his head.

Evina laughed again.

''I can't believe a man like you never dated at all, '' Evina said, still holding back laughter.

''Really, I have never dated at all, you are the second woman I love after my mother, Arezz replied.

Evina was pensive to hear Arezz say, what else when Arezz mentioned the word mother, which suddenly made her imagine the figure of her mother who has been gone since she was a child.

Even the mother's face had faded a little in her brain memory, because she did not keep a single portrait or recall other memories from the mother.

Arezz looked astonished to see the face of Evina who looked a little moody.

''You why? was there any word of mine that offended you?''

Evina shook her head and looked back at Arezz's face before her.

''I honestly like you, I don't know when this feeling existed, I don't understand it either.

Arezz smiled happily, did that mean this woman who was in his presence had accepted his feelings.

''That means you accept me?'' said Arezz innocently.

Evina nodded then smiled.

Arezz grabbed Evina's body and hugged her, her lips did not stop smiling with excitement, she finally got an answer that was in line with her expectations.

Until finally the arrival of Sakti makes the two of them have to let go of each other's embrace.

''Arezz.. there is something I have to say, '' said Sakti with a slight gasp like running out.

Arezz approached Sakti with a look of wonder.

Sakti seemed to whisper in Arezz's ear making Arezz widen his eyes when Sakti was done with his words, which Evina did not hear at all.

''What's up?'' ask Evina.

Both of them answered, suddenly the royal guards were seen walking towards the three of them, among them Sebastian who was a personal bodyguard and the bodyguard who was most trusted by His Majesty.

Evina was very surprised to see that there were more than 10 bodyguards who were all walking towards her.

''Please come with me to the palace, '' Sebastian told Arezz by bowing first to him.

''I don't want to, '' Arezz replied firmly.

While Sakti was already standing on his horse, he prepared to protect the prince when the guards used violence to bring the prince back to the palace.

Evina just stood there, really filled with questions in her little brain, about what was really happening in front of her.
