We finished our tour around the orphanages and I was extremely happy to see the Prince smiling for like... The first time ever? This is too good to be true, and I'm pretty sure I checked around to see if pigs are flying yet.
But why do I care anyways, he is just an ice block which melted...big deal. This had and has nothing to do with me, BUT W-WHY AM I SMILING LIKE AN IDIOT.

We rode the limo to go back to the castle, I tried to socialize with the new version of the Prince but... His plain old face is back.
What?
"Um..... It was great! Wasn't it?!" I said enthusiastically, and he just nods.
Nooooooooooooooooo....... Not Mr. Iceberg again...

The rest of the ride was full of steam running out of my angry, confused body, while Mr. Iceberg was basically scattering away my steam with his cold vibes. I couldn't exactly say that I miss these vibes.
I feel bad for the driver though... He doesn't seem to enjoy the tension in the atmosphere.

Even though it's not my problem, but I can't help but feel down knowing that he returned back to normal...
NO GET A GRIP OF YOURSELF, EVELYN. THIS ISN'T NORMAL.. SO NO WAY HE COULD'VE RETURNED BACK TO NORMAL.
He always acted this way, guess that what makes it normal...
NO HE WAS ALWAYS ACTING OPPOSITE OF NORMAL... WHICH IS NOT NORMAL.
If he is always acting this way.... Doesn't that make his abnormal behaviour a normal one?
NO IT MAKES HIM A POOR FELLOW WHO NEEDS THERAPY.

My head started to hurt from my internal struggle, no wonder it gives off steam... Until one piece of information from my memories settled it all...
"Before we go, what happens in the orphanage... Stays in the orphanage..."
Ooooooh, I remembered how confused I looked when I heard him say this sentence... But I guess now I understand.

BUT STILL WHY DOES HE TEND TO ACT LIKE THAT IN CERTAIN PLACES LIKE ORPHANAGES?!
I-I don't know maybe he has a reason...
WHAT IS THAT REASON?! ............and that's how another headache inducing argument started till the end of the ride.

We arrived and all what I wanted to do is to go and sleep till this super spy operation is done and I have enough money to buy the necklace of my dreams to finally revert to my old beautiful life away from icebergs, perverts and Royal shit.
And as I was about to touch the handle of my room's door, "his majesty, the king, requested to see you." The chaperone said before I jumped in response to her surprising, stiff tone.

"Well, you sure look baffled, not a good indicator." She added. "The king must've heard something perhaps?"
"N-no.. Um, I think he has no idea..." I said while wishing that a unicorn arrives and picks me up so I can disappear out of here. She looked at me suspiciously like she always did and I still looked around for a unicorn taxi.
"Very well, you mustn't be late then." And with these words coming out of her I nodded and ran off.

I recognized that I am somehow extremely tired, this is slightly peculiar ... But I didn't put thought to it.
While I was running though, I had feeling I didn't sense from a heck of a long time ago. I can't say it's a happy occasion to feel it again... Unless you think that extreme headaches are good to make a come back. Now this is weird, I thought the medicine would get rid of these headache attacks... And it did for as long as I started taking it. But why am I getting these bizzare conditions again?

As I thought, the headache ended after a minute or so... But this is not good, next time it is gonna take longer. So, I decided to start doing what the doctors recommended when I was first introduced to my illness: rest in a quiet room for several hours, and don't move a lot.
I didn't think I'd need to follow these instructions any day cause the medicine usually backed me up... But yeah, thanks life for pulling up a sneaky act when I'm in need of none of them.

I knocked before entering the king's office. Great, now I have to get in the role... Geez I'm so exhausted. After the King blurted out some of his well known, funny comments... He suddenly serioused-up...
"So you saw the true nature of my son, right?" He said and of course I went like, "w-what? No! Pfft hahaha of course not what are you even talking about?"
I do not work well under stress, especially when my brain is doing is kicking the back of my skull.

"I understand he pressured you to not to speak about it, but I'm the king... A.k.a the boss around here! Hahahaha am I right?" He said with a playful tone. "He seemed to act natural in front of you, and I wanna use that to give you a small job." Oh come on do I look like a fucking knight doing quests all around the kingdom and shit?!
I gave no indication of my anger or disapproval, so he took it as a yes from me then continued, "I want you to bring him back to being him when he was at the orphanages..."

After moments of processing what he just told me, I knew that that's why the sneaky king sent me with Mr. Iceberg. I can't help but feel flattered, I mean, I am the one who might be able to help him... So I decided to flatter myself even more.
So with the most innocent tone I can ever come up with, I asked "w-why do you think he acts natural i-in front if me, like there's n-nothing special about me.." The king grinned saying "he probably sees no more than those children at the orphanages"

Geez thanks Mr. King, I'm now described as a child.
Why can't I ever keep compliments to myself... I thought as I dragged my tired ass to my room after being dismissed.
