Chapter - 7
"Trying to run away, again?"
"W-what? W-who?" She looks around but sees no one. "Look up idiot", She looked up and saw Prince Ray sitting on the tree branch.
"Y-you are an idiot! You scared me".
He jumped down and asked her if she wanted to run away again and she looked straight into his eyes and assured him that she had enough of running and now she would just wait for his seven days to end. He taunts her that she might have regretted running away after seeing his good looks.
"Huh! That's really absurd", She bluffed and looked away as she couldn't believe she actually thought that earlier. He smirks and she turns toward him and moves closer to him "Or maybe you even followed me to California and all that was pre-planned...", She walks closer and he moves backwards. At last, he was standing in between the tree and her. He smiles and holds her waist and takes her to the tree branch.
"What are you doing!"
"Any more absurd words and I will throw you down"
"You...", suddenly she stopped and looked up at the sky, it was full of stars and the moon looked so big. She was completely mesmerised by the beauty of the night sky.
"Wow it's so clear and the moon looks big"
"It's not big, it's just near and we have 2 moons, one for North Comly-5 and one for South Comly-5"
"By the way, as I observe, not everyone has powers like you. Right?"
"Actually these powers are...I mean inner strength is the gift of these 2 moons to our planet and it only gives strength to the first child of the family"
"Ohh! That's why I thought why didn't Castor is bad", she teased him, he looked at her and replied "I should just push you down"
"Sorry I was just joking", she smiles. He looks at her watching the stars and smiling. He was not expecting someone sitting next to him smiling like this while watching stars and that too a girl!
He also looks at the stars and says "Isn't it beautiful to see such a sky full of glitters", She looked at him and replied, "Hmm..it actually is!".
He turns towards her and she quickly turns her head and thinks "What I just did! Am I hurt on my head or something?" She loses her balance and is about to fall but he grabs her hand and pulls her closer. "Sit tight! I will push you myself if I want to", he teased her and she told him to help her get down. He gets her down and she is leaving towards her room, he calls her from back and tells her to trust him before trying to run away next time. She keeps on going and shows thumbs up showing her acceptance.
The next morning, she wakes up hearing noises, looks out the window and sees servants watering plants. Fresh air with the fragrance of flowers and the soft rays of dawn on her face makes it such a pleasant morning for her after so many mishaps. The servant comes to give her clothes to get fresh up and she gets ready to join the royal family for breakfast.
It was still time for breakfast, so the Queen told both Princes to take Sera, getting familiar with the palace but as usual, Prince Ray ignored it and at last Prince Castor got caught as palace guide.
"Why do I have to give you this tour?", he said in a helpless tone.
"Huh! Like I want to", she replies and looks at him "I'm not going to stay here forever, so better you tell me something about your planet rather than giving a palace tour".
"By the way, you didn't tell us about your planet yet, from where did you come?"
She gets tensed as she was not supposed to tell them about her being an earthling. She tries to change the topic to "I-I-I...yes I am from dinosaur planet". "Dinosaur planet? What's that? Wait.. are you talking about Earth-0.2?", he looked at her and she had no choice but to agree so nodded her head quickly "Yes, yes that one. Actually we called it dinosaur planet".
