He poured water for me. "I didn't think that Space was hiring people from outside. Where are you from?" He asked me again.
Wh-what? Why is he so brave asking me? What is his real purpose?
I suddenly fell silent hearing it. Looks like he wants to find out where I came from. I shifted this seat a little, away from him. He saw the same thing I did. He also felt bad for himself.
"Em, sorry. Maybe I'm being too aggressive." He regretted his actions.
I just stayed beside him.
"Miss, will you be friends with me?" The question this time looks serious.
I looked, saw it. He looked at me like he wanted to ask for something. I don't know what, but I definitely shouldn't have lunch with him without permission from the palace. But it's all happened, I can't regret it.
"Prince, you could say I am a resident of Space. That country has done a lot to give me a job. You are from Arthemis. Don't you mind this friendship?" I'm trying to get information.
He nodded slowly. "Do you know anything about the two countries?" He asked me again, but this time it was like regretting the situation.
I'm nodding. Dare not speak anymore.
"Huh ...," He sighed. "I have nothing to do with it. I rejected my father's decision. Grandfather was so hard and made Angkasa like his enemy. And the king of Sky has been kind to us." I finally got some information from him.
"King Sky?" ask again.
"true." He's nodding. "King Sky once sent a peace letter to Arthemis. But grandfather refused it raw, even tore the letter apart. I can't figure out why Grandpa got there like that. Though King Sky has good intentions for our country." He explains.
Why could that be? This is so weird. Why did Xi and his grandfather contradict? "Em, Prince. Have you met the two Space princes yourself?" aska I want to know.
He's nodding. "Earlier. But only once. That was when we were teenagers. Maybe they've forgotten me by now" he said.
"Where?" I asked kepo.
"Interstate tournaments pioneered by Antara. All the crown princes were invited to clash dexterity in various competitions. I was a teenager and didn't know anything." He explained it to me.
"Oh ...." I nodded too.
It turns out that on this earth there is also a tournament between the crown prince in fighting agility. I found out after being told by him. It might also be true what Xi said, my two princes must have forgotten about him by now for meeting only once. That was when I was a teenager.
"Prince."
"Yes?"
"What do you need in flowers? Does it work like me?" I'm scraping information again.
He sipped his drinking water. "I was asked by my father to come and offer cooperation. And also attending Rose's birthday party," he said honestly.
Implicit if he's telling me the truth. I can't believe it, I can't believe that he would be telling the truth like this. Without any shame or hesitation he told me anything I asked. Plong without anything to hide. Which makes me dismiss bad thoughts about him. I hope this is him, not a show. I wish it was.
"But isn't the princess's birthday still a few days away?" I'm ascertaining.
He smiled back. "really. But since I didn't feel at home in the palace, I just left. Our meeting at the lake was my last day in space. Then he returned to Arthemis. And do you know anything, Miss?" He asked me.
"What?"
"I intend to look for you but time is not possible. However, it turns out that God reunited us here." She smiled sweetly at me.
Oh my God, that smile is so sweet.
I saw her smile grow. I really can't believe we're gonna meet again. And I really didn't think that in some meetings we could feel this close. It seems Xi is a prince who is friendly with everyone. It was evident he wanted to make me friends. I am not from the nobility. Yes, this is only a temporary presumption, not forever.
Prince, it turns out you're friendly to anyone.
Hopefully someday I can find out who he really is. Of course by staying on guard from any danger that can come at any time. I have to do it for the sake of my beloved Space.
"alright. We're friends." I smiled as I accepted his friendship.
I finally accepted Xi as my friend. I saw him smiling in response to this. I wish we could be good friends. Don't be like Zu who finally likes me. Because it will be troublesome. And I don't want that until it happens. So yes, let's enjoy this story.
Return to the palace...
After lunch with Xi at the store. Xi escorted me to the horse-drawn carriage that was in the market parking lot. Lara was deliberately waiting because it turned out that she knew Xi. And maybe Xi had asked Lara before to let me pick my own flowers. We finally met and greeted today. I still don't believe it.
Now I'm sitting with Lara in the carriage. I kept quiet because of my conversation with Xi. I can't figure out how Xi could have different opinions with his father and grandfather. Because he indirectly opposed the palace policy. It is only fitting that if he does not stay there for long, his thoughts are contrary to his father and grandfather.
I felt something from Xi. I feel like he's a typical kind-hearted guy. However, as the scope was less than possible, those dark auras I felt from him. In a sense he has a trait that I have to watch out for. Don't know what. Moreover, I had a dream that was not about him, making me have to be more aware of myself. Because it does not necessarily look the same outside as looking inside. So always have to be anticipating.
"Miss, is Miss okay?"
Lara. Maybe she felt my attitude change since making her wait. And maybe he thinks something else about us.
"Em, I'm fine, Lara. Oh, yeah." I took my plastic groceries. "This is for you. I bought meatballs for you and for everyone else." I handed him five packs of meatballs.
"Miss ...." Instantly he was stunned by my gift.
"Get this. Eat with the others. The meat's good, the gravy's good, too." I'm retelling.
I don't know why I saw her tears. Maybe he was overwhelmed by my gift. Though in hindsight five packs of meatballs cost nothing. However, he could be this late.
"Miss, Miss is so nice." He also accepted my gift.
