Chapter 6: Trying My Best
"I knew something was off when he agreed instantly! But that's weird, He should be glad that I decided to break our engagement, Maybe he really did change his mind? But what made him change his mind? That prince better be sorry or else I will kick his ass for sure--
My carefree and long life to live, I will definitely have you!!" I yelled as I fake my tears. I wanted a carefree life but that prince ruined it all!
Now that I'm back with my right mind. I roamed my eyes to where my feet led me. Hey, I know this place...not. I internally screamed in my head,
"Great now I'm lost! I didn't pay attention to my surroundings when I came here, how can I go back now?" I sighed as I sat beside the water fountain.
"First I got engaged with the crown prince now this? Could my life even get worse?" I sighed.
"Are you happy that you got engaged with the crown prince?"I bitterly smiled, happy huh?
"I'd rather die, that prince is the incarnation of the devil, don't you know? We made agreed to break our engagement but now he said that he changed his mind? How I wish to wipe that stupid smirk he had on his shitty face--"My eyes widen to my sentence. I looked to my right to find a golden-haired boy who's looking at me with his deep ocean eyes, full of confusion.
Wait, what did I just say? Did I just curse the Crown Prince in front of this young lad?
"You could get your tongue cut for saying such words to a Prince, or maybe even worse," He said.
"M-my tongue?" I asked, trying to clear it to him. He slowly nodded.
"I'm Doomed!" I shouted as I knelt on the ground. I was continuing my drama until the boy spoke up once again.
"But don't worry, I won't tell anyone." I looked up to him as I saw him open up a book and starts reading.
"A bookworm?" I asked softly.
"Wrong" He said in annoyance.
"You heard?!"
He sighed again,
(SN: I realized they sighed too much in this chapter ;-;)
He stood up and left without a word. Wha--
"Hey wait!" I said as I followed him and tried to have small talks. you know those small talks that start with a "How are you" and ends with a "Fine" and then complete silence? Except mine is worse, he didn't answer to any of my questions.
"I'm Rachel," I said as I smiled at the boy, for some reason he looks familiar, but it wouldn't hurt to be a little friendly right? Besides, it's not like I would regret having a friend in this game.
"I didn't ask" He replied bluntly.
Gah.
"Hey listen here, I'm not trying to be friendly with you, I just want to introduce myself! Besides I am the only daughter of the Duke of the Vallemont house! So be a little friendly towards me okay?" I said as I stood proudly. My dad had such an influential background so at least his attitude for me will change.
"I didn't say that you're being friendly to me" I hate how he got it right to the point.
"Also," He looked back to me.
"I am more superior in rank than you are," He said.
"Oh really? Then are you also a dukes son?" I asked but he shooked his head 'No' So I frowned.
"I am Louis Graceheart, the second prince of Graceheart kingdom," He said as my breath hitched.
I take my words back, I regret this.
