Regaleon and I took a stroll outside and the sun was about to set.
Dimitri came to relay a message to Regaelon. He bowed to us and whispered to Regaleon.
"Alicia, I am sorry that I have to cut short my visit." Regaleon said with a sad smile. "Something came up and I need to go back to attend to it."
"It's okay." I replied. But deep down I was sad. Regaleon and I haven't seen each other for a few days because of our busy schedules. I was looking forward to have dinner with him tonight.
"Alicia." Regaleon caressed my face. "Tell me what's on your mind."
Regaleon looked at me with soft eyes. He was able to read my inner feelings.
"I was...looking forward to having dinner with you tonight." I was ashamed to be selfish. "But I know you are busy. I have expected this and also in the future. I can't be selfish because the citizens of Grandcrest needs you."
