Aria POV:
It was evening so soon, I was in the room with Clara and Maya as I rushed my meal like my life depends on it. I missed breakfast and lunch I can't miss this one. After eating, I'm going to clean the kitchen and fetch some firewood for cooking.
"Aria are you okay?" Maya asked.
"Yeah I'm cool".
"No you're not". Maya said.
Why can't she see I can't talk right now. I've got lots to do after eating this meal.
"You aren't looking healthy".
"I am". I said disagreeing with her.
"No you're not". Maya replied.
"I said I am".
"Aria. Maya here has a point. You aren't looking healthy, you skip meals all the time and either end up eating once a day or not at all. The duties you do everyday is draining and weakening you. Just tell the king to reduce the chores you do everyday". Clara suggested.
I crackled as they both stared at me weirdly. Although she has a point. I'm already stressed out but how do they expect me to meet the king and tell him this. Is just like standing in front of lion and telling it not eat you.
"I understand but I'm fine, okay".
I said as I got up from my bed heading out with my empty plate.
Heading straight to the kitchen to keep my empty plate, I saw prince Kiran walking towards me with a smile. Aww... Such a cutie.
"Good evening maiden Aria". He greeted. Oh my he's greeting me.
"Same to you prince Kiran".
"I'm happy I've finally found you. I was thinking of day we could spend time together and get to know each other but it seems you're always busy, I can hardly see you in a day".
"Oh, well I apologies, when I have spare time I'll inform you". I replied but deep down I knew I won't.
He smiled and said.
"You know you're the nicest royal maiden here. There was a maiden named Tianna, she's so sassy. She has a big problem". He complained.
"Oh really".
"Yeah she thinks she's better than her minions and any other maidens here".
Just calling Tianna friends minions made me laugh out loud. This boy is something else.
"Just through the way she behaves and her attitude problem, I can never marry such person". He said shaking his head in grimace.
"Wow! What do prince Kiran know about marriage?" Surprised by his choice of words.
"Marriage is the coming together of a man and a woman to form a home, and whereby a woman can't manage home or has a very bad characteristics the home is scattered". He elaborated.
Oh my I never knew he could be this intelligent.
"That's nice, your highness I'll be on my way now I've got duties to carry out now".
"Aren't you meant to be resting by now?" Kiran asked.
"Well not now, once I'm done with my chores I'll then..."
"You servant, may I know why the hell you're standing there doing nothing". I heard the king ask walking towards us.
From far or near you'll recognise the king's voice anywhere. He has a sweet masculine voice.
