Lost In Her Eyes | Book 3 |

Aina's POV

Today, I have decided to choose the gown I needed for the wedding, and another gown to change into. Since there has been some changes with the original plan, I will have to talk to the organizer again, with Hyunjin. We had the invitations given out to the royalties except for Chaerin.

Hyunjin didn't want her to know yet.

"What is happening?" Felix asked

"I don't know with Hyunjin. I just knew that they are planning to get married but then he asked me to marry him."

"All of a sudden? That's it? What about Chaerin? Was she hurt?" he asked

"She is upset, probably, but she doesn't know it yet. You don't tell her a word or two about this. Hyunjin will decide that for himself. Besides, Chaerin is invited, she would be there."

Hyunjin has been a great company and a friend to Chaerin all these time. She was in that worse situation of her life but she managed to face it because of Hyunjin. He never left her and stayed with her although he doesn't know what he can gain from it.

"Thank you."

"Just tell Chaerin I said hi." he said

"I will."

I got out of the car and he drove away. There are people outside the boutique shop, some are taking photos, videos, calling my attention, or wanting to hand gifts. I can't accept it as it is against the royal protocol.

As I entered the boutique shop, there are 3 or 4 people to assist me, and Chaerin is also here with me. I have called her to help me choose a gown I will have to wear.

"Hey." she greeted with a smile on her face

"How are you? I'm glad you came."

"I'm just thankful that you have invited me in choosing your gowns." Chaerin

The short conversation just went on for a few minutes and we have decided on choosing the gowns. She helped me decide on what should I choose for my final three to try on and decide properly.

As we have decided, I proceeded to try on the gowns as suggested. All are different and beautiful- I am speechless with how I am undecided on what to wear on that special day. Well, I am undecided, which I had to ask Chaerin to choose for me as she looked at me wearing the gowns.

"Have you decided which I should choose?"

"Yes. That one." she said

Chaerin is referring to the white wedding gown that has lace on body area and the sleeves as well. It has a flowing tulle skirt, a long train, and an elegant veil to partner with. I am actually eyeing for this one but I promised to wear the wedding gown that Chaerin will choose.

"I actually love this one." 

"Really? It suits you. I just saw how your beauty really showed even more when you wore that gown. You look brighter." she said

"Thank you. I thought I have a nasty taste if I were to choose this."

"What? No! Every gown would look good on you, whether people liked it or not. It's your day to celebrate, you should choose what you want to wear. That day may lasts in people's minds, but it will always be a memory for you to remember." Chaerin said

No matter how people will look at Chaerin, she would always be this angel. I have never been felt different when I'm with Chaerin even though she knew I am getting married to Felix.

Ever since I was a young, I didn't have any friends that would be with me. There are princess who are also royalties, they never made an effort becoming friends with me. It's probably because my parents would always be controlling with people.

Chaerin and I have decided to grab some coffee despite the paparazzi trying to follow us anywhere we go. I expected this to happen but I didn't know this would be so bad that we will have to rent out the whole second floor of the coffee shop to avoid people coming.

"I'm sorry. This should be a fun day but it became worse."

"No. It's fun. I have never experienced getting photographed by paparazzis. You know, I recently found out that I am a royal." she said

I smiled at her.

"Is it fun having people wanting to be friends with you?" she asked

"Everyone loves us. We are from our own royal clans. However, when it comes to people from royal community, the hate train will continue. I had no friends."

"Why? You look nice and beautiful." Chaerin

I chuckled, "You were actually the first real friend I had. That's why I'm so clingy with you. I can feel that you're nice too. That must be why something is happening for a reason."

"Huh? What do you mean?" she asked

"Nothing. Do you know that some people are willing to sacrifice their own happiness and freedom for someone they love to be happy?"

"Yeah. It's like you already did a knot but you had to undo it and let go." she said

Does she already know? Wait- She's probably talking about Felix? Hyunjin will kill me if ever she finds out before the wedding. Fuck.

"Soon, you should join me in choosing my own wedding gown for my wedding." she said

"I surely will."

She smiled at me.

"Be there at my wedding. The groom would want to see you for the last time."
