Roberto Button-Strength and weakness (Part 2)

He made the decision. Yes, he did, for him and you. Now that it's come to this you could only do little.

You wiped the tears and took a deep breath before speaking in an indifferent tone. “Your highness, if that's what you want then please don't look like that. I-I'll be fine without you too… if you can be with someone else”.

Those words, at last felt like poison in your mouth but you had to say it. For his sake and yours. For you to be able to get away from him, with at least a beating heart, though it might be broken. When you looked up at him again, his face only held despair and pain. And you wanted to wrap him in your arms and say he was not alone. But it's not your place. So you steeled your heart and smiled through your agony. At this point you saw he was alarmed but didn't know why.

“Thank you for everything, your highness. I'm glad I got to know you.”

“No, that's not- “, he started to reach out towards you, his voice shaky but your legs took off, wanting to get away as soon as possible. You could hear him yelling your name as he chased you, telling you to stop, but you were in no mind to accept his chivalry for it would only make you more miserable, break you furthermore.

You ran not minding the onlookers whispering about the Prince, now your ex and you crying as you ran. Though there was a part of you that was shouting at you about the potential troubles the Prince could face if the press writes about this incident, at that moment all that mattered was getting away. And you did exactly that.

At the Villa gates stood Alberto, with a stern look on his face. But as soon as he saw you breathless and crying his expression flickered between shock and alarm. Before he could stop you though, you were running again until you reached your room and locked the door.  That's the moment you couldn't take it anymore, keep that façade on and collapsed to the ground.

Now that you're alone, you couldn't stop the tears from flowing. All you could do was question yourself. For the first time, you truly wished Alberto had been there to stop you when you sneaked out. To yell at Roberto and drag him to his office. Nothing could have happened if he were there. But as it is. Why should you be suffering like this? Why did you fall in love with him? Why should you accept his proposal? Why should you accept the first dance at that party? Why did you go to that party at all in the first place? Mistakes. Mistakes after mistakes.

But there was a part of you, dying to know his reasons. Reasons for his pain, despair and that hopeless look on his face. That part was killing you, telling you that you're the reason he's in agony. But, you didn't know how or why. You've been very careful with the way you handled him, for you knew how easily breakable he was despite the strong front he puts on. You knew his weakness and his strength. It was you. Yes, YOU. That's why you doubted he found someone else. But again it could be your desperation that's giving you this delusions.

He clearly said it's better if you parted. And that's the end of it. Neither a reason nor an explanation. He didn't care to give you a reason. That made you feel pathetic and empty. Void.

Then you heard a sudden pounding on the door with an anxious voice. It was a familiar voice but you couldn't make out who.

“Miss Y/N! Miss Y/N?! Are you alright?! Please open the door… Miss?”

Then after a moment, the recognition set in that it was Alberto, the caring butler. You wiped your tears away, trying to get your voice under control. But when you spoke your voice still shook.

“I-I'm fine, Alberto. But… but I need to be alone, please, I beg of you!”

You managed to get the words out despite your throat dry from crying and sprinting through the town. But Alberto isn't one to give up easily when he knew for sure that something wasn't right.

“Miss Y/N, it's obvious that you're not alright. What did Roberto do to you?! Please, don't be so hard on yourself, Miss!”

His voice was full of worry and pleading but you were too worn out, both body and mind to show yourself. So you stood up using every ounce of the strength you were left with and answered.

“It's nothing, Alberto. I need some rest. I'm going to get some sleep. Thank you for being concerned about me. And please forgive my behavior.”
There was no sound on the other side of the door but you could feel Alberto’s presence. Then after a moment he sighed heavily.

“If you need anything please don't hesitate to call me anytime, Miss.”

With that reluctant reply, Alberto’s heavy foot steps moved away from your room's door until you could no longer hear it. As you lowered yourself into the sofa all you could think of was his words ringing in your ears, the pain in his eyes and voice and the way he was acting recently.

But even if it was a political problem or maybe he found someone better to love, didn't you even had the right to know it fully, for you’ve been with him all this time? But your heart felt like it was bleeding but your mind was laughing at you in mocking. He might be the carefree, not minding the status and friendly type. But he was still a born noble and you were not. You knew that, but ignored it thinking you found true love. But you've been one of his another jokes all along. A boring joke.

The thought never left your mind as your body, due to the exhaustion leaned on the sofa, falling asleep before you knew it.
