I was awakened by the sounds coming from door, someone is knocking. Oh, do I really slept? or maybe my eyes is closed but my soul is half awake. I can't forget what happened last night. They tricked me. We'll that's life, maybe its my last chance to say goodbye and to see this very wonderful palace of Oreon. I stood up and opened the door.
"Lady Chloe, please fixed your self now, the king is waiting for you.." aunt Elisa explained. I'll be back in a minute, she added.
"Okey aunt Elisa, I said then closed the door and take a shower. This is your last day Chloe. In a minute, the palace will kick you out back to your home. I told to my self. Waah! This is all I got for following and trying to stopped Freda's company. I'm not a cheater. After a minute, Aunt Elisa knocked on my door and I'm ready. Ready to be out to the competition. As walk through the corridor, I saw the other girls. They were whispering and talking and laughing like I had done a big mistake. And oh, speaking of Freda. A big smile painted on her lips. She must be happy for after a minute I'm gone on her way.
Aunt Elisa lead me through out a room. I took a deep breathe. "Don't worry everything will gonna be alright.... she confidently said. What does she mean? Everything's not alright, I'm so disgusted and my heart beat so fast. I'm gonna talk to the king? How am I? Ashamed but not guilty. I hold the door knob and gently push it. A two soldier's lead me to the king. I bow my head and look straight to King William. This is the third time I'm gonna see him this so closed. First, is when the announcement of the fifteen finalist; second is our first dinner in the palace and third, is right now. For accusing to the thing that's not true. How sad.
"Lady Chloe, right? he asked me.
"Yes, i am. Your highness." I answered.
"I heard about what happened last night..and you all ladies, read the rules of the competition. You all are not permissioned to go near or enter the forest isn't it?." he asked me.
"Yes, I read it your highness. I'm already prepare for this day.. If I'm out to the battle, I'm gonna accept it. " I said and gently looked down.
"Then, you know that rules is rules... he said, then stood up and go near the terrace. "But I'm so impressed with you young lady." he added.
I don't understand what he mean.
"Despite of everything you remain humble and willing to accept the consequences. But you don't have to worry anymore, you're still on the competition. There are hidden cameras on the palace, and Froilan reviewed it. The three girl's tried to cheat and you wanted to stopped them. But it wasn't happen, perhaps they accused you."he explained.
I was so happy hearing that good news. I'm still remain on the competition. I can now breathe.
"But you still have to punished, for going near the forest. The four of you. You're not joining the training for today. That means you cannot gain points. You can now go back to your room while the others is on special class today. Prince Dale will talked to the other girls for personal questions." he added.
"Thank you your highness." I said then start to walked going back to my room. Now I understand what Aunt Elisa told me awhile ago. For not worrying too much because im still on the competition. But im so envious with the other ladies, Prince Dale will gonna talk to them. How lucky they are. I'm sure right now, Faye is feelin' like shes on cloud nine.
Instead of going back to my room, I decided to go to the garden. I seat in and close my eyes and smell the scents coming from the newly bloom flowers around me. The air is so refreshing and air is blowing up my hair. I just let it scattered on my face.
"Your even more beautiful when you look like a mess." I heard someone's voice. I open my eyes and terrible surprised. What does this gorgeous man doing here?? That smile that melt my heart everytime. Chloe, deep breathe. Why is it, he always there when I am in trouble? Is he really my damsel in distress? My knight in a shinning armour?
"H-Hans, what are you doing here? I asked him. But instead of answering me he just smiled at me.
"I'm just visiting my friend. And oh, by the way I heard that you almost kick out?" he curiously asked me.
"Is that so." I said, im feeling disappointed. Your expecting too much Chloe, your having a day dream.. "Actually, I'm just done talking with the King a while ago. And fortunately, I'm still going to fight." I explained.
"That's great. Don't give up, you had to remain on the competition. The Prince, will surely like if you win it. " he said, I'm really stupid for having this feeling towards he doesn't even care for my real feeling. He occupy the empty bench next to me.
"Why you look at me like that? Do you like me isn't it? Hans asked me, I can't look at him straigt to his eyes. I'm blushing and my face is turning into red. What would I do?
"Yes, I like you Hans. But you always pushing me to win this competition and marry the Prince. Don't you see, im inlove with you.. Im in love with you Hans, did you hear it?" I asked him...
"Hey! Chloe, are you alright?" Hans tapped my shoulder. Alright, Im out of my self again. I'm on the other world for a seconds. (Back to reality).
"Yah, I'm okey. I just remembered something." I answered. Hoping that it happened, but it wasn't. I'm not brave enough to confess my self.
"By the way, I have to go." he said. Before I could talk, he started to turn his back and walked away.
That man, is so mysterious, numb, and crazy sometimes. You'll see. An idea, came into my mind.
