I was about to go to bed when I heard a knocked on my door. I stood up and saw Gaile and Faye standing gazing at me. They breathe too fast.
"You two. You okey?" I asked then.
"You're really her.." they said in chorus. Then they hugged me so tight. I smiled at them and offer them to enter in my room.
"Did you both run away?" I asked.
"Yeah! We run just to confirm that you're really still her in the Palace." Faye answered while drinking a glass of water.
"Right, Aunt Elisa told us that the King let you stay. And just punished you. We're so happy that you'd be join us for the next training." Faye added.
"But..Sad to say that you lose the chance to talked to Prince Dale personally." Gaile said, and lay down into my bed.
"It's okey, one of day maybe I could." I just simply answered.
Gaile and Faye tell me what happen this day. They told me that three ladies been quit this morning and decided to go back home. There are only nine of us left for the competition. I was wondering what will be the next training do we have to do the next day. It's always a question.
"Anyway, Chloe. We have to go back to our rooms now. See you tomorrow on the ground." Gaile said, she stood up and handed Faye out of the room. I just smile and go to the terrace when I see a familiar face on the garden. Is that Prince Dale. And who is he talking to. I couldn't see the face of the guy standing in front of him. The moon is too dark tonight and the palace light is the only one who gives brightness to the surrounding. They looked so serious and feels like that they we're so close to each other. I knew it because of the way they talk to each other. I also heard a laugh from Prince Dale. Oh, my... is that Prince David? I asked my self. Maybe, he is. Aunt Elisa told me that the school term is about to end. And it's not possible that he arrived already. I felt the excitement. I need to see his face, so I decided to go out and use the backstairs so that I could hide from the trees. But, im late. I can no longer see them from where they are standing. I take a deep breathe and lean on my back of the wall.
"You look pale..you're looking for someone or something?"
I heard someone's voice from nowhere. I'm almost fall off because of it. I can't see anything, it's more darker in here.
"Hahaha.. You should not drink too much coffee." he said. I know what he mean. My heart is beating so fast. Who is this man? Is he the Prince? I felt more nervous. What if he really the Prince? I'm not ready to see him.
"Your still the same girl I meet a years ago." he said,
"Huh? Who are you?" I asked him. Then I saw a shadow coming from the other side of the wall. I was so shocked when I saw Prince Dale smiling at me. He looked more handsome than before. Even if years passed.
"A-ahh..." I can't find a right words to say. I looked down.
"Hey, young lady.. why you're not speaking?" he asked me. Why your here?
"I'm sorry your highness.." I said. I can't tell him the reason why I am here hiding.
"You lied again.." he answered.
Your not a good actress young lady... I still remember that lines back then. I'm so embarrassed that night and it happen again.
"Don't worry, I still don't punish you. But you owe two times. Follow me." he added then walk so I followed him like what he said.
I stopped from walking when I saw a familiar place. "Did you remember this place?" he asked me at seat on a bench.
"Yes, I answered.
"It's been a years since the coronation night and the place is still the same isn't it?" I occupied the seat next to him.
"Yeah, it looks like the same."
"I know that this day will come. And I'm right. Your lucky to be here."
Gaile and Faye will be envious, if I tell this to them. Aunt Elisa is right of describing Prince Dale. His so nice and smart. He told me how happy he is being with Princess Kaitlyn. And told me that the Princess is bearing there child in her tummy. They will soon be a happy complete family. It's a big surprised to the palace. And I'm lucky that Prince Dale he told me a secret.
I go back to my room with a big smile. I wasn't expected that he still remember me.
"I hope you'd win this competition..Prince David will be happy if you do. So please, win this battle for him. I'm looking forward to see you around not being in a competition but being a part of the family. His excited to see you.
What does Prince Dale mean about his last world? His excited to see you. Why me? We don't even meet yet. Maybe, Prince Dale told him about me. It's been in a middle of night but I'm still awake. I can't sleep. Oh, not now. I have to rest tonight and be ready for the next challenge.
