After dinner at Zu's residence...
I just finished dinner. And now we sat, leaning back against the wall of the terrace outside the room looking at the front yard of his residence from above.
Zu sat on my left side, he was close to the porch fence. I was close to the entrance. The night wind blows, making me a little cold. Zu noticed, he immediately took off his sleeping pajama vest for me.
"Wear it." He put his sleep vest on me.
I really feel close to him. This is what sometimes causes my heart to break. I am confused in making choices. Two princes alone have upset me, and now he is growing again.
"Prince, I don't know why these few days I feel cold" I said, looking at him.
The suddenness of my words made Zu stunned. I don't know what's on his mind, Zu immediately hugged me.
Eh?!
"Wear my body to warm you up" she responded.
To be honest, I felt comfortable in his arms, but I also kept my boundaries. Because after all he's a normal guy. There must be a vibration felt when close to a woman, especially if the woman is loved by him.
"Prince, what do you want to talk to me about?" my question is now resting my head on his chest.
Zu grabbed me, he held my right arm. His left hand held my left. It feels so comfortable to be in his arms.
"Em, it's a matter of our kingdom, Ara." He immediately responded.
"What is it?" I'm starting to get curious.
"Look. A few more days of spring festival will be held. The ministers advised to keep holding the festival which is only once a year. But ...,"
"But?" I looked towards him.
"But I'm worried that this festival will bring bad news for me."
"I mean Prince?"
"I'm afraid that on the sidelines of my busy work managing this festival will get you back to Space."
"Huh? What?!" I was surprised by surprise.
Holy hooch! His feelings are so sensitive. He can know what's going to happen.
"Ara, I really want to marry you. Really am. I'm sure of my decision." He looked at me deeply.
"Prince ...."
I just embraced his body. The fragrance of her perfume was so soft I breathed deeply. And I don't know why I'm lingering in his arms.
"Fine."
"Hm?"
"I'll buy you."
"Huh? What?!!" I was so shocked to hear that.
"I'll buy you with my life, baby," he said.
"Prince ...."
We looked at each other. I saw him smile at me. The tip of my nose was also poked by him. And I don't know why it feels so good.
Prince, my heart ....
He rubbed my head and kissed this forehead. I didn't fight back, I just let him do that, as long as he didn't ask me for anything weird.
"Since childhood, Grandma Lin took care of me. Mom died giving birth to Shu." Zu started telling stories.
"Yes, he didn't get to see Mom's face. We were raised by grandmothers. And when I was seven, I took care of Shu. Starting from bathing him, bribing him, putting him to sleep. I'm all doing it myself."
Jeez .... I was stunned to hear this story.
"I've been independent since the age of seven, Ara. My life as crown prince was not as beautiful as imagined." The sadness on his face.
"What's going on, Prince? Do you want to tell me?" I kept looking at him from the side.
"Dad married the queen mother while she was still pregnant with Shu."
"What?!"
"Suri's mother used to be a dancer in this palace. And maybe it's because I feel sorry for him that he married her.
"I mean Prince?"
"The queen mother is the sole parent of her son."
"Well?!" I'm aghast.
I don't know why I feel that the main family relationship in this palace is so complicated. Zu also seemed to realize it.
"Well, I'll tell you the truth. Listen, yeah." Zu asked gently.
I nodded and further tightened this embrace. I let him tell you what really happened in the main family of the palace. And how surprised I was when I found out directly from Zu. In that instant my heart was filled to hear it.
"Prince ...."
Zu told me that the king married the current queen out of pity. The queen turned out to be the sole parent of a young son. So Zu had a half-brother from the queen mother.
I don't know who and who Zu's half-brother is yet. But it seems, I can understand how life in this palace is. Which makes Zu has lived independently since childhood. And that is what makes my heart so full of hearing it.
The girl I saw in the king's room was a father-brother. She's the daughter of this country but a different mother. Zu said that when his mother was pregnant with Shu, his late mother was suffering from a serious illness. So there is only one option, save the queen or Shu.
Hearing this story I feel lucky because I still have complete parents. I can't imagine if my fate is the same as Zu's, as if the treasure is nothing at all.
"Prince, I'm sorry." I apologized to him.
"I'm sorry for what?" ask the confused Zu.
I just smiled and got closer to him. I gently stroked his chest so that he would feel a little calm after telling this. And for some reason, I have come to wish and wish to fulfill his wish so that he will not be sad anymore.
"Prince, relax. There I am here." I held her left hand tight.
Zu smiled at me, what a sweet smile. I brought my face closer to his, I wanted to kiss his lips. And without resisting, Zu accepted it with pleasure.
I looked into her eyes, I wiped her face and hugged her tightly again. Looks like Zu is very happy with what I did. He also rubbed my back.
"We're sleeping, yeah." He's taking me to bed.
I'm nodding. He carried me into the room and kept looking at my face. It felt so ashamed of myself being stared at by him like that.
I don't know what he wants to do, but tonight I'll let him do anything, just so as not to harm me. I just enjoyed this storyline with him, because I was also starting to love him.
"Sleeping soon, yeah."
Zu put me on the bed, and he put himself on my right side. We pulled the blanket up to the waist. And then, he brought himself closer. He slept facing me and lowered his body, as if asking for a loving swipe from me.
Fuck up!
I slowly rubbed her hair and hugged her to make her feel more comfortable. His face was right in front of my chest. Yeah, already. Let me warm her heart tonight.
Prince, I feel guilty. I'm confused as to how, I've made an appointment to meet Rain tomorrow. I'm sorry, yeah. If it could be shared, I would share it fairly.
I closed my eyes and began to breathe slowly. We finally fell asleep on this bed. Sleep like a husband and wife, but without doing anything.
