👑Crown Prince👑

(27) Flare met Drizzle

Finally, classes are all done. Their half day so after their morning class, they can have their rest or do what they wanted.

"Driz. I can't join you for lunch" drizzle asked why. "Me and som needed to do something at the coffee shop near the university" nuea said.

Drizzle got suspicious on them, a big question can be seen just by looking at him. "Is it related to school?" He asked. Nuea nodded. Now his eyebrow raise "School or you two will just date behind my back?"

"S.school" nuea stutter, his eyes are unfocused. "Why are stuttering, nuea?" He asked. Before drizzle could asked for more, som pulled nuea near him and said "we need to go now or else there be no seats left. Bye!" They ran away.

"Why can't they just said the truth to me?" Drizzle roll his eyes playfully. "I should brought food for lunch. My stomach are already growling"

After they brought their lunch at the cafeteria, they search for seats after.

"Hey.." prapai said while he sat down. "What's your opinion on him?" Prapai asked. "Him? Who?" Sky slowly pull his head. "Who else? Drizzle?" He said. "Simple, the royal prince's doppelganger" sky answered. "We can't be sure of that or else.... He really is the real deal" prapai exclaimed.

Sky scoffed "did you hit your head somewhere or what?". "What?! I am just giving my opinion" prapai defend himself. "Well, that doesn't help at all" sky annoyed said. "About you phayu?". "I.. I don't know... But, I somehow felt him.. rain".

"See! Even phayu said so!"

Princess flare joined in "said what?" Flare sat down beside phayu, she gaze at them looking for answer. "Flare. I think.." prapai hesitate. "Flare. What if... Your brother didn't really die?" A conclusion jumped into flare's though.

Sky slapped his hand "pai! Don't give flare false hope anymore" sky faces flare. "I am sorry bringing that up, flare" flare shake her head. "Why? Why did bring that topic suddenly?" Flare asked.

Flare one of the people who deeply mourned about his brothers death what's more for val, who endear his brother the most and deeply close with him. She witnessed how miserable val is after his brother's death, he locked himself on his chamber and never talked to someone even his family members, val chooses to not ate and said he will only ate the food his brother prepared and cooked. Flare can't help his brother for that, the only thing flare could think of is to comfortable him and help him move on same as her and her family. For her, it's hard to just forget his older brother especially everything that happens with him, every memory, every moments they spend with him. Yet she chooses to stay strong and move on if she can.

What's more for phayu, he always stayed where he and rain mostly hangout. the place he proposed to him, rain's favor place, the garden. Phayu stayed there for almost the whole day, if it's not for prapai who will drag him to his chamber, phayu might be sick because of the heavy rain that started falling in late afternoon.

Inside his chamber, he continue drinking his liquor poured inside the transparent glass wine. He drank as he continue to suffer because of rain's death. Phayu notice the continuously heavy rainfall outside then a roaring furious thunderstorm appeared but the rain still continues. He can see both of the thunderstorm and the heavy rain like him and rain, how wished he and rain are like them, together... Like the thunderstorm and heavy rain outside.

"Rain... My rain.." he said then drink again and again after. "Comeback..."

"We...." Prapai glare at sky. "Do you believe your brother really die?" Sky asked, she now though it once more after prapai opens this topic again.

"I wanna say I don't but evidences are cleared stating brother die" flare said with lower tone. "I am afraid we need to investigate something" sky started, flare raised her head. "Why?".

"As what pai said... It's about your brother"

"You see.. one of our classmate, he looked like the royal prince" sky shorten. "More likey a twin, flare" prapai added, sky nodded. "Twin? But foil and sai are the only twins in our family". "What we mean is our classmate looked like your brother, flare".

Sky continue to told them but ple came running where their table is, so he decided to halt for the mean time.

"Flare, I see you're here" Ple stared at her. "Did I give you permission to call me by my name, princess ple?" Flare mocked her.

"But-". "Did I? I am asking you" she said with an authority on her tone. "Sorry, your royal highness"

Ple wanted to sat down but sky stopped her. "I am sorry your highness but someone is reserved for this seat" sky said. "Who, your filthy bag? Oh please" Ple scoffed. "Put those away. I am more important than that" she demand. "Sorry, I really can't"

Ple raise her hand on sky but it didn't landed in him, someone block it for sky. "No violence here, miss" said drizzle.

All of them stood up, flare eyed widen and whispered "brother...".

"And who do you think you are to stop me? Your no one but a commoner".

drizzle wander "commoner? Does she watch too much dramas that she adapted those in real life? What is she a princess, a royalty?".

"What do you mean? Aren't you what you called 'commoner' too?" Drizzle interpret they way she talks. "You! Wanna die!" She squeak. "Halt" flare demand. "Stop causing any trouble P'ple, you already caught to much attention so please just leave" flare demand but calmly. "Why me? Shouldn't he the one that should leave" she pointed at drizzle. "Why him? He didn't cause any commotion, so I don't see why he should leave" flare approach at her and whispered "Please leave already or do you want this to reached to your parent. I might be the youngest here but just one word I can make you expelling and leave this university. Leave or you wanna see how I growl?"

Ple grab her things, she give a death stare and 'this is not over yet' looked at drizzle. Drizzle who's not afraid on that looked he just shrugged and rolled his eyes like a bratty person.

"Sorry for involving you on our trouble, drizzle" sky was sorried. "No, probs. I am the one who supposed to say sorry for butting in" drizzle scratch the back of his head. "No, you didn't" flare said, she kept staring at him. "You did help us. So please join us to repay you". "Is that okay for you guys?" Drizzle gaze on them.

"Sure why not? Right phayu?"

"Mhm"

"Okay, I'll be joining then" drizzle sat down beside sky.
