The lady seemed to have a busy time while she was choosing clothes from the closet. The closet was not different from the woody furniture. Nawras silently stayed sitting stell on the woody chair when the lady cried with excitement:
- Ah! I think this is suitable.
She started to help Nawras wearing the cleaned dress. Then she combed her hair while Nawras was thinking about the presence of the cottage.
"In which situation I entangled myself?"
But the woman took the initiative to talk:
- By the way, I am Lara. I am working as a maidservant for the princess. You know, when you started to work then you forget yourself, right? Ah, from your clothes, are you working here? So to which section are you working for? I didn't see you before at the palace!
They looked at each other, but she kept silent. So Miss Lara laughed and said:
- Ah! Maybe you are from the greenhouse, right? I heard people there are like a beehive, aren't they?
But she didn't get any answer. Honestly, Nawar doesn't know how to reply to her. She doesn't have a voice. But fortunately, Miss Lara kept talking like she was talking only to herself:
- Huh! I was always curious about that place. It is not allowed to enter there. I know a few people from the palace could.
Nawras started to feel anxiety. She swallowed her saliva, but luckily the women didn't notice. Or ... she thought she didn't.
After she finished dressing her. She smiled and let Nawras go. Nawras seemed so relieved when she finally could move out. she nodded her head to show her appreciate then she ran out. She went down the stairs to see that he disappeared. She noticed drawing tools and new cleaned canvas. These things were so expensive to use! She glanced several times before she noticed the small piece of paper on it. It looked like he wanted to say sorry in his way. But ... These things were so heavy on her shoulders to accept it. So, she got out without taking them. He was hiding behind the stairs, so when he saw her leaving without taking them, he felt a twinge inside his heart.
...
He closed the door of the room. Then asked:
- Then, What did you find?
Miss Lora put her hand under her chin and thought:
- I think she has a good position in the greenhouse.
- The greenhouse!
His tone was between surprise and worried. He knew the greenhouse is the most secret in the palace that was prevented to enter. But Miss Lora interrupted his thoughts and called him:
- Prince Rohan!
He looked at her and saw her firm eyes:
- You are not planning to do something crazy, aren't you?
- Huh!
He sighted:
- Aren't you doing what exactly The king was doing?
She bowed her head down and said gently:
- This slave was just worried about your highness from The king's anger. Please don't take it in your heart.
Rohan couldn't help but took a deep breath. Then he said calmly:
- You don't need to worried about this prince. You can go. Thank you for your help.
- It's all my pleasure, Prince.
Then she went out to her work.
...
In the next day, Nawras woke up like usually. Then she went to the greenhouse to start her task. When she heard girls gossip:
- Did you hear the rumours?
- about what? about what?
- It said that his highness's behaviour started to be weird recently.
- Really! How?
- It said that his highness skipped the knight's meetings several times. And instead, he was playing around.
One of the girls sobbed:
- Doesn't his highness just avoid the cavalier Lyon?
- Who knows?
The girl carelessly raised her shoulders:
- Maybe there is a woman in his life.
Nawras sighted. She didn't know what the important thing about that. But, the thing that she only knew was she should calculate a lot of information about his highness. The girls didn't care about her too much. But when she listened enough, she went to continue her task.
- Is the mixture ready?
Miss Marwa asked. Then she smiled and said:
- Today you are going to freeze it. The lady who was responsible for this process doesn't feel well.
She gave her the templates. When she heard another gossip:
- Do you think she will let her alone?
- I can't confirm. If she did, who's going to communicate with her?
- But she is the only girl who knows the magical elixir recipe. All the cavalier's existence under her hand. Do you think they will throw her away after her mother die?
- Huh! Lucky girl. Although she is dumb, she has value.
Their words pierced her heart like an arrow. But she has nothing to say. It is all the truth. After she finished moulding the mixture in the templates. She walked toward the freezing room. It had a lot of racks were regularly arranged. A blue vapour outed from its frozen walls that bit the skin. Nawras put the templates on the shelves. When she went to get out, the door was closed. She deeply sighed. She thought that maybe the door was closed because of the temperature. She tried to open it, but the door was so heavy. It seemed that the door frosted. She looked around, the room was full of ice. Moreover, she didn't have a voice. The only way is to try making noise by banging the door. But ... nobody noticed. She started to lose her strength. Her eyelashes frozen were heavy on her eyes. Her skin colour turned to be blue. And her breath started to be tight. Her breath turned from blue vapour to a little piece of ice that fell on the icy ground. She started to feel pain in her legs. And when the door finally opened she collapsed.
She couldn't hear anything then. But Miss Marwa ran to her with panic:
- Are you ok? Nawras!
But Nawras coughed hard. She was close to her death. Miss Marwa helped her:
- Don't worry dear. I will take you to your room.
While a lot of envy eyes were following them.
