between us.

Chapter 3.

" It has been 412 days.. it's been a year.. and there's no single letter from him.. " Athanasia sighed.

Ever since the day Kiel and her almost kissed, she had been hoping for Lucas to come back.

She can feel herself growing feelings for Kiel and she hated that fact.

and after that day, me and Kiel cant even look at each other anymore. 

Their eyes will meet once, and then they'll look away, and then.. 

It'll meet again, with their red face all over.

Kiel looked at her, and went silent, and then opened his mouth.

" Father said Jennette can't visit us this year. So, my Father will be sending me to Arlanta. " Kiel said while sipping his tea.

Athanasia looked up to him, her eyes cant lie, it was clear that she looked sad over the fact that she'll be spending my winter holiday without any of my friends. 

Helena and the other was planning to spend time with their family, Kiel is leaving, Jennette is at another country and she-

" Will you accompany me, Sia? I heard there was uh.. a.. winter ball.. " He stuttered.

She looked at him in shock and then realized what he said..

She blushed furiously while Kiel is holding his laughter. She immediately rushed to her Father's office.

" papacanigotothewinterballatarlantawithijekiel.. ? " She spoke fastly, not minding the fact that theres Felix being scolded by him.

".. what? " Claude asked, tilting his head. " Repeat. " he ordered. Athy took a big breath then raised her voice.

" CAN I GO TO THE WINTER BALL WITH KIEL?! " Athy screamed.

Having 0 clue about Ijekiel who was running after her, now was watching her at the door of the emperor's office while holding his laughter cause he wouldnt dare to laugh at the emperor's daughter in front of the emperor himself.

" No. " Claude said, then he's back at scolding Felix.

Athanasia went pale and jumped to Claude. " Please papa? pleasee pleasee pleasee " Athy begged while giving Claude the biggest puppy eyes that are unresistable. 

Claude kept on glaring at her and said " No. ". 

Athy didn't give up. She followed Claude around for the whole day. 

Felix was ordered to finish Claude's work and Ijekiel was sent by Roger to attend a party. 

Athy kept on asking him every minute if she can go. 

She didn't even know why she wanted to go so bad. 

It's not like she wanted to go to the ball so bad.. but.. it felt like the idea of going to Arlanta is a good one.. as if something she had been missing is there.

" Papa please can i- "

" Okay! Fine you can go! " Claude said while clenching his hand. 

" Now stop being so noisy. " He muttered.

Athy jumped to her father of excitement " YAY Thank you, Daddy! " and gave him the biggest kiss on his cheeks.

" Why are you so happy to go out with that white dog " Claude mumbled.

 She didnt hear what he said so she just giggled

" ehehehe.. "
