As we both agreed, we ended up downtown, and I was instantly thrilled by the busy yet happy and familiar flee market where I and the rest of our friends bought a lot of stuff. At first, no one actually paid attention to us... but then people began looking at our direction, and the next thing I knew was that all the people in this huge area were on their knees.

Bowing to the crown prince of Russia and his heir to the throne.

My husband, in his usual elegant royal flare, dismissed the citizens' polite gesture by waving his fingers. Even when the citizens slowly rose with their feet, they couldn't take their eyes off him. He was carrying our little one, and people were nothing but fascinated. Most were smiles, and some were truly surprised, I guess?

I gave him a quick glance, and he simply nodded at me as though telling me that he's okay and just continue walking ahead. I was looking around and finally reached a familiar spot...

The store where I bought my imitation royal febergé eggs.

I quickly went there- thrilled upon learning that they have new designs! 😊

Without holding myself, I gently picked one and fancied it. I was instantly approached by the nice mister who sells them.

"Your highness!! It's nice to have you back here! You see, we have...new..."

The nice vendor was suddenly on his knees.

And when I looked back, a huge eyed, sterned face crown prince was looking around his shop.

The poor vendor's head was pretty low, and he was literally on his knees. And when his wife came out, her smile quickly faded and frantically did the same.

My husband made a royal finger gesture, and I was a bit taken aback when a Romanov elite soldier quickly came out of nowhere, stepped forward, and gently took my little one in his safe arm. He silently stood while holding my little prince and didn't even budge when my little one tried to playfully pinch his nose.🤭

"Uh... well, look! Aren't they nice and truly exquisite?"

My husband was eyeing the imitations elegantly arrayed on a shelf.

In different sizes...

"Exquisite? These are counterfeit."

He said, voice a bit annoyed.

He picked one, which was an exact replica of one of his personal ones and speculated it.

"Am I wrong?"

He asked and them, still refusing to look up, forehead touching the ground.

I held his arm and gave him a look.

"Please... Just..."

I took the egg from his hold and gently put it back to the shelf.

"You know... the people or I might say your people look up so much to you that they only want to appreciate the royal pieces that you possess. Something that they can never ever afford. Besides, they never claimed that these are real... it's clearly imitation."
