Two Princes One Love

Between Us

A few moments later...

I searched for Rain until I found him giving training to the royal soldiers.

"Who else wants to try it?"

He asked the soldiers who else would try to sword practice with him. Apparently, these soldiers are new. There were only about thirty people.

I then ventured to get closer while looking for an excuse to speak.

"Me!" answer from behind him.

All the soldiers looked at me. Rain turned his body, looking at me as he walked closer.

"I'll try to fight you!"

My words certainly made these new soldiers look at each other. No exception Rain who seemed surprised by my request.

"Fine."

His voice suddenly sounded hoarse. Like holding on to sadness. He repeatedly swallowed his saliva. A sad look came out from the glare of his sharp eyes.

"Fight me, Prince Rain!" I told him.

"I won't fight a woman" he replied.

I then turned around. Get into the circle she made. Now I stand before him.

"What if your enemy is a woman? You're not gonna fight back and let your life end up in his hands?"

I tried to spur him. As a result, my words succeeded. Rain asked one of the soldiers to get a sword made of wood. I also took the sword.

In front of the soldiers, Rain showed his wi-ba. He served my request. I won't waste this opportunity either.

Before the combat training began, we bowed in salute to each other. Then I started to move forward to knock him down.

I attacked him with the skills and lessons I had learned. I don't think my training last night was in vain. Today I can show him my skills.

I repeatedly attacked him, Rain had no intention of attacking me at all. He always survives. Even when he was pressed at the end of the battle line, he still did not resist my attack.

I still wear my light purple kebaya. However, his subordinates changed into long black basic pants. It makes me free to fight with him.

"Rain, answer me!"

I asked him to avenge my attack. However, he didn't bully her at all. He's staying put. Until I feel tired myself. Seeing that, he tried to hold my sword and push me back until I fell.

"We're doing the exercises today."

Rain finished his training. The soldiers immediately left the training ground without forgetting to salute Rain in unison. We both live here now.

"Ara, this is outrageous."

He said like that then turned around, walked away from me. Soon I got up and tried to talk to him.

"Until when are you gonna keep dodging, Rain?" I asked him, with a visibility of about five meters.

Rain stopped his footsteps, but he answered nothing.

"I'm sorry about what happened yesterday. But everything you see is not what you imagine," I said, then began to walk toward him.

"Rain, we're not kissing. We were just enjoying the touch of a falling waterfall" I continued.

Rain then turned his body towards me.

"Ara, I saw it for myself."

"Rain, you're just looking at it from your point of view. If you're looking at it from another point of view, then it's not what you think."

We looked. I felt so thirsty after fighting him, my throat was so dry, but I tried to clear this misunderstanding first.

"Ara, maybe you're right. But my heart has already been—"

I hugged him before he could continue his words. I put my head on his chest that field. I put my hands around her waist and I felt her body warm.

"Rain, please forgive me. Don't be so indifferent."

I don't know why, I feel so sad when I remember the events we went through. I miss him, I miss his attention and his affection. I feel if Rain is like that to me.

She moved her hand, like she wanted to caress my hair. Suddenly, someone came to us.

"It seems like my arrival has disturbed you."

Cloud ...?

The voice was Cloud. I immediately released my embrace from Rain.

"Cloud, I—"

My heart beats uncontrollably fast. My brain seems to be unable to think when I am in this situation. My breath felt so heavy. I found out Cloud was with Rain with this attitude.

"Ara, your hours are not over."

Cloud said that and left me. I feel bad about it. I'll go after him immediately.

"Cloud, that was—"

"Meet me by nightfall. I don't want to talk right now."

"But, Cloud—"

Cloud just passed by. I can't help it. I know that Cloud was heartbroken to see our sight earlier.

I stopped my footsteps too. I looked back, saw Rain. I saw Rain standing still while gulping his saliva many times. His gaze was so bitter. He then took his eyes off me.

I'm dizzy, so dizzy. Why should I be in a situation like this? In front of me was Cloud who was angry. Behind me was a sad Rain. I'm kind of out of sense. Can't determine where to go. Should I keep chasing Cloud? Or stay here with Rain?

Oh, dearGod. Help me...

...

I went back to my room. I guess, I finished my dress design in the room. My mind drifted erratically. I feel like I need to introspect myself right away.

I set foot into the bathroom, soaking myself in the tub while enjoying the shower. I try to calm my heart.

I've been trying to finish my draft sketch. But repeatedly failing like something is hampered. Yes, the mood is indeed very influential with this thought. When the mood is not good, then the mind can not focus on doing various things.

"I'd better calm myself first."

I've been soaking for quite a while. After feeling a little cold, I immediately rinsed and went out of the bathroom. I took my nightgown and put it on immediately. I stared at myself in front of the big mirror while saying my own words.

"What am I supposed to do now?"

I leaned against the wall of the room while rubbing my own head. Not wanting to be swept away for longer, I immediately came out of the dressing room and sat in front of my desk. I started designing clothes.

Slowly, I started drawing them. Before long, Mbok Asri came to deliver a message to me.

"Miss, Prince Cloud is waiting for you in his room."

I see when the night comes. I immediately changed clothes to go to her room, wearing a blue dress. I also try to be ordinary, like nothing happened.

Arriving there...

Cloud was waiting for me. He then took me somewhere.

Is this a secret room?

I followed him into a room behind the wall of his study. Apparently, in this secret room there is a luxurious mattress and wardrobe.

It looks like Cloud is sleeping here.
