<River's POV>

"It's a "half-human half-fish".........just like you, Prince Oceano." I said.

"River!" Reign reacted.

(Flashback)

"Reign, are you still there?" I wave my hand in front of her face. I think she's spacing out. "I guess, you're feeling fine, right?" She quickly nodded. I felt relief. "I'm glad you're okay." She smiled shyly. "I have to go now, see you when I see you. Bye." I bid before I walk away.

I still want to talk to her longer but I can see that she's not that interested, based on her responses earlier. She didn't even bother to utter a single word, just nod and smile.

"Hay! I hope we can bring back what we are in the past."

I miss the time when we're still young and close to each other. She's my only companion back then because no one wants to be friend with me, except her. I can't understand their native language and I speak foreign language too but Reign doesn't mind about that. She's very nice and reliable. I can't believed that I trusted her a lot and rely to a such adorable little girl. Looks cold in the outside but truly warmth in the inside. She's not fake and she never imitate others just to look cool or fancy. She will help and support when you need, with no hesitations and complains.

"I'm sure she's still like that until now."

She's grown up already. I've seen a lot of changes on her, physically. Unlike before, her blushing chubby cheeks were replaced by pimples. Her little body became meaty but not fat. But despite of her flaws and imperfections, I still can't deny the fact that she's the only woman who's living in my mind rent-free. I can't forget her image inside my head, she keeps on lingering in my brain.

I want to be with her again. I really regretted staying away from her just to explore something new and join with careless people. I thought I can be happier with them but no. All this time...... I only need is her.

"I'm really longing for you, Reign."

"RIVER!" I stopped and look back. I heard Reign shouted my name.

"THANK YOU FOR CARRYING ME-..." She continued but suddenly stopped. "NO. I MEAN......FOR TAKING ME HOME." She continued again but she looks confused because of her creased eyebrows. "NO. ERASE THAT. THANK YOU FOR........KEEPING ME SAFE." Now, she looks satisfied on what she have said.

I didn't get her point but I think she's talking about last night. She was very drunk and it was dangerous for her to sleep outside. So, I decided to carry her since she can't even walk because of dizziness. I take her home and I told her cousin about what happened.

"Honestly, I wanted to take her to my house instead. So that, I'll be the one who'll take care of her while she's still drunk. But I can't."

A smile appears on my face. I don't know if Reign could see it but I hope not. This is a kind of smile that even I, myself, didn't know could make such smile genuine and sincere like this. My smile that shows my true feelings towards her.

Before I could say a word, my feet started running away. There are a lot of times where my own body is not cooperating with each other, just like the way my heart and mind fight on every move I make every time Reign is around.

I always follow my logic mind and I'm tired about it. My heart has its own mind to question the reasonings of my brain. I'm afraid to follow what my heart says, there are too many risks and I don't wanna take a risk. My heart says....... Be honest on what I truly feel and let it be. On the other hand, my mind says....... Keep it like this, be on the safe side so I don't get hurt.
