PRINCE ALI AND his entourage entered the palace in a flood, similar to the way Prince Anders and his clan had. And once again, to build suspense, Prince Ali was left waiting for Princess Jasmine's arrival.

Aladdin, still disguised as Prince Ali, whispered to the Genie, "What is taking so long?"

He look around the room expectantly until they heard the loud sound of the doors opening, Genie pointed, "Here comes the man."

Aladdin tried to present one of the gifts he was holding as he saw them, turning it into an awkward standing pose.

The Genie peered over at him and creased his eyebrows, "What are you doing? Put your arms down."

"I'm presenting it," He replied.

"Put your arms down."

The Sultan greeted Aladdin with a smile, "Welcome to Agrabah, Prince Ali."

At that moment the ruffle at the end of the hook he was holding fell onto the ground, the Genie rolled his eyes, "How did you break that?"

"I don't know, it just fell off."

Rashida looked over to Jafar who was already on the verge of snickering, she was ready to scold him but he made her smile a little too.

The Genie ignored his previous actions, telling him what to say next, "It's a pleasure to meet him."

Aladdin tensed up, still bearing a slightly-nervous grin, "It's just as much a pleasure for me, your Highness...sir," He went into a courtesy, "You look very serene."

Jasmine glanced over at Rashida, mouthing words, "Told you."

"That's a courtesy, not a bow," The Genie pointed out to Aladdin quietly, again.

Jafar spoke up, "Forgive me, I'm afraid I'm not familiar with...Ababwa."

"But then again, he's not familiar with lots of things," Rashida shrugged, muttered under her breath.

"Rashida..." Hamed gave his eldest daughter a stern look.

"It's okay, not many people know it," Aladdin said, "It's south."

"It's north," The Genie said at the same time.

The royals looked confused.

"We have a north and a south," Aladdin explained.

"If you were to go," Genie tried to draw it with his fingers.

"It's around there, you can find it. If you just look," Aladdin went on foolishly.

"Don't help me," Genie said.

"The world is changing quickly, Jafar. It seems as if there is a new country every day," The Sultan said.

Aladdin laughed loudly, tapping Genie on the back.

The Genie smiled too, "Don't touch me, don't touch me."

"Ha...well," Aladdin said, "Yes, you are very wise."

Even Jasmine couldn't hold on her laughter and had a smirk on her face. Rashida wasn't even holding it inside anymore as she giggled out loud.

Hamed had to scold her again, "Hold yourself, Rashida."

*.·:·.✧    ✦    ✧.·:

After the disastrous meeting with Prince Ali, Jasmine had to flee to her room to escape the awkward situation with yet another money-crazed Prince.

Dalia was with her, helping her get ready for the evening where she would dance with the suitors.

She was going to wear a dazzling regal blue jumpsuit, embezzled with diamonds.

Rashida crept in silently as Dalia was tending to her hair, making neat patterns in it and styling it.

Jasmine sighed, "Are you here to tell me to give him a chance?"

"No..." Rashida said, scratching her ear, "Yes."

"You saw what happened, he's the same," Jasmine said.

"Yes, but how can you know? He was probably just nervous. Apart from that, he's quite good looking, isn't he?"

"Well, he was," Jasmine smiled.

"And he had jams," Dalia said making Jasmine and Rashida laugh.

"If I'm wrong about him, I'll owe you," Rashida told Jasmine.

"Okay, but if I'm right I'll owe you," Jasmine said, Rashida took her hand.

"Fine, it's a deal," They shook on it, "I'm gonna win."
