Flora and I decided to deliver the flowers tomorrow because everyone will need to do training for the competition. I'll just have to find an excuse so I could stay alone in the residence and wait for Flora and her assistant to deliver the flower.
And now Prince Joachim and I are on our way now to the Vrawyth residence. Prince Joachim insists on taking ho despite my refusal. In the end, I just let him because he wouldn't let off.
The mont the carriage stops in front of the gate of the Vrawyth residence. I imdiately look at Prince Joachim and thank him for taking ho. "Prince Joachim, thank you for showing around and bringing ho."
Prince Joachim waves his hand at . "Don't mind it. It's a pleasure for ." He then opens the window behind him and talks to the guard in front of the gate. "Good evening, soldiers of the Saiven Kingdom. I am Prince Joachim of the Yesian Kingdom, and I am here to bring Lady Csille Lauretré ho. Can you please open the gate?"
The guards imdiately bow their heads at Prince Joachim. "Greetings, your highness, Prince Joachim. However, we can only grant you access if you show us that Lady Lauretré is with you," one of the guards said.
Prince Joachim looked at and gestured his hand towards the window. I sigh. I could have just get off the carriage and walk inside the residence. Why does he need to enter inside the residence?
I lean towards the window and smile at the guards. "Good evening. Would you mind letting us in? I'm sorry for the inconvenience."
The guard's face imdiately reddens, and they imdiately open the gate to let the carriage in. I instantly get back on my seat and wait for the carriage to stop. I cannot wait to get off this carriage.
Not that I hate Prince Joachim or sothing, but there's really sothing on him that creeps out, and I don't like it.
The carriage stops, and I am about to open the door when soone opens it from the outside. A smiling Prince Fraser welcos back. "Lady Lauretré, welco back ho. I've been waiting for you." He said with a smile on his face. Although he is smiling, I could still feel that he is angry at .
I smile awkwardly at him. "Prince Fraser, you're here. Why are you not sleeping?"
He looks behind my back, and his smile froze. "Prince Joachim of the Saiven Kingdom. What are you doing here?"
Prince Joachim chuckled. "Prince Fraser of the Vrawyth Kingdom. It's been a long ti since we saw each other." He then looks at , and he looks at Prince Fraser again. "I'm just bringing Lady Csille Lauretré ho."
Prince Fraser laughs before he offers his hand to . It's not the happy kind of laugh. Rather it's a kind of laugh that is threatening. "Thank you for bringing MY fiancée back, Prince Joachim. I really appreciate it." He really emphasizes the word my. But why would he do that? He then looks at and signals to take his hand.
I smile awkwardly at him. He looks mad right now. Can I just go back? I don't want to face Prince Fraser right now. Why is he always angry when I see him? He definitely needs to work with his anger managent issue.
I put my hand on his hand, and he imdiately helps to get off the carriage. The mont my feet touch the ground, he imdiately put one of his hands on my back and squeezes it tightly.
I look at him. He leaned towards and whispered, "We definitely need to talk about this, Lady Lauretré."
After saying those words, he imdiately stands straight and looks at Prince Joachim, who is looking at us with a smile on his face.
I squint my eyes. Prince Joachim is smiling, but why do I sense sothing from his smile?
"The pleasure is all mine, Prince Fraser. I had a great ti with Lady Lauretré." He then looks at . "I hope we can do that again."
I feel Prince Fraser squeezes my back. "That. I hate to break this to you, Prince Joachim, but MY fiancée will definitely be busy training for the competition. It's impossible for her to et you. If we have ti, we will be the one visiting you," Prince Fraser said with an edge in his voice.
I look at Prince Fraser and Prince Joachim. Why do I feel a tension between them? What are these two doing?
I clear my throat. Trying to ease the tension. Can these two let go? I don't want to be involved with the tension between them. I already have many problems I need to handle. I don't want to add another to my list.
"Thank you for bringing ho Prince Joachim. However, don't you think it's getting late already?"
Prince Fraser nods his head. "Yes, Prince Joachim, it will be best for you to leave already. Although there are guards watching the city but you're a Prince of a Kingdom, and strolling around the city at night is not advisable."
Prince Joachim smiles at Prince Fraser, but I could see that his jaw is shaking slightly. Is he angry? But why would he get angry?
"And oh, don't you think it won't be good for the Yesian Kingdom? if other people know that your carriage stayed in the Vrawyth Kingdom residence for a couple of minutes?"
Prince Joachim smirks and nods his head. "Thank you for the reminder. Prince Fraser, if that's the case. I'll be taking my leave now," Prince Joachim looks at and smiles. He then gestured to the guard beside him.
The guard imdiately gets off the carriage and takes sothing on the back. There's a small compartnt on the back of the carriage. That is where they put their things. It's like the back compartnt on the cars in the real world.
I frown when I saw the guard taking a flower pot. Isn't that aster flowers? The symbol of love? I imdiately look at Prince Joachim, who is looking intently at right now. What does he an by that?
"Prince Joachim, why are you giving MY fiancée a flower in front of ?" Prince Fraser asks. I could feel his hand on my back shaking.
He's mad. Prince Fraser knows the language of flowers, and he definitely knew what this flower ans. Why does Prince Joachim give flowers? Does he want to wage war against the Vrawyth Kingdom?
"I'm just giving Lady Lauretré a flower, is that wrong? Why do you seem so worked up?" Prince Joachim asks with a smile on his face. It's actually not a simple smile but more like a teasing smile.
I frown. This Prince Joachim, why is he doing this? Prince Fraser is the Crown Prince of the Vrawyth Kingdom, the strongest Kingdom, and he dares to tease Prince Fraser like he is teasing a child?
Does these two have an issue with each other? I tried to search through Csille's mory, but everything's blurry. I haven't written about Prince Joachim, so I don't have any idea who he is and what does he wants.
Prince Fraser scoffs. "You're giving MY fiancée a flower, and you're asking why am I work up? This is not a simple thing Prince Joachim. If you have any intention to MY future BRIDE, please forget it. The Vrawyth Kingdom and the Yesian Kingdom have a friendly relationship with each other right from the start, please, don't be a reason for us to cut that relationship." Prince Fraser said with a warning in his voice.
He's furious now. Although Prince Fraser has anger managent issues, I never saw him hurt anyone physically. He always shouts at Csille, but he never raised his hand at her, which also applies to anyone. It's a good thing he doesn't like to get physical with anyone, or else this Prince Joachim will be lying on the ground now.
Prince Fraser is only hostile towards those people he doesn't like. And that includes Prince Joachim? With the sound of his voice, I can already say that he is really angry at Prince Joachim. But why is he mad at him? What did Prince Joachim do to Prince Fraser?
Prince Joachim laughs at Prince Fraser's words. How can this guy laugh? Prince Fraser is already mad at him, but he has the guts to still laugh at him? I know he has a disability but is he that suicidal?
"Prince Fraser, why do you need to be on guard with ? I am only giving Lady Csille a flower as a welco gift to her. Saiven and the Yesian Kingdom are almost one because of our proximity and our rankings. Giving a flower to Lady Csille is my way of welcoming her to the Saiven Kingdom. Also, Lady Csille and I used to play when we were young, rember? How can I forget that Lady Csille is already your betrothed? You don't have to worry. I don't have any plan to take Lady Csille from you. So you can rest assured, Prince Fraser."
Even after what Prince Joachim said, Prince Fraser is still frowning at him. "I would appreciate the gift you gave if only it's not a flower."
Prince Joachim chuckled. "What's wrong with flowers, your highness, Prince Fraser? I heard that Lady Csille loves flowers. I clearly rember how she loves to play in the Vrawyth Kingdom's palace garden. I also heard she is competing for flower arranging. So, I thought it was a good idea to give it to her as a welco gift. Is there sothing wrong with the flowers, Prince Fraser?"
I look at Prince Fraser, and I saw him gritting his teeth out of anger. "You're Kingdom have a tradition with flowers, Prince Joachim. Do you think I wouldn't know that?"
Tradition with flowers? Is that when the woman gives flowers to the guy they like? But Prince Joachim is not a woman, and I am definitely not a guy. So, what's the matter with Prince Fraser? Why is he so against with the flower? Is it because of the aning behind that flower?
Prince Joachim laughs at Prince Fraser. "Oh, what tradition you are talking about? We have many traditions, Prince Fraser. I'm not sure what tradition you are talking about."
Prince Joachim is fearless, isn't he? How can he talk like that in front of a mad Prince Fraser? He even laughs like he is teasing Prince Fraser. Is he suicidal? Does he really want Prince Fraser to be mad at him or, worst to be angry at the Yesian Kingdom?
Prince Fraser takes a deep breath before answering Prince Joachim. "Prince Joachim, everyone knows how you, Yesian man's do your thing. When a Yesian man gave a flower to a woman in the first eting, then it ans he has feelings for her, and he wants to marry her. Do you think I would be ignorant with that tradition?"
My eyes imdiately widen with Prince Fraser's words. What? When a Yesian man gave a flower to a woman after eting her for the first ti, then it ans. He wants to marry her?
I look at Prince Joachim. Disbelief is clearly written on my face. I just t him, and he already gave a flower. What does he an?
Prince Joachim laughs loudly. Prince Fraser clenched his fist. I could feel that he wants to run towards Prince Joachim and smack him. But he knows he cannot do that.
I sighed and held his clenched fist. Prince Fraser looks at , and I shake my head at him. "Maybe he doesn't an it like that. Please calm yourself down, Fraser," I whispered to him.
Prince Fraser sigh and looks at Prince Joachim. Waiting for him to respond.
Prince Joachim stops laughing and looks at Prince Fraser and looks at . "I didn't know you would misinterpret my action. In the first place, it isn't the first ti I t Lady Csille. Have you forgotten Prince Fraser? And that tradition is not valid to a woman who is engaged or married. So, , giving flowers to Lady Csille is just a welco gift. You don't need to read too much about my actions. I know she is your fiancée, and I wouldn't dare to take her away from you. So, you can rest assured, Prince Fraser."
Prince Joachim gestured to the guard, and the guard put the flower down. He then bows his head at us before he gets in the carriage. Prince Joachim smile at us. "I'll be going now, Prince Fraser." Prince Joachim looks at and winks. "Lady Lauretré, I hope to see you again."
The carriage started to move until it disappeared. I sigh and look at the Aster flower.
Finally, Prince Joachim is gone, and now I only have one problem left, and that is Prince Fraser.
