"I am very happy to hear it. Hopefully it will run smoothly. And you can become the youth of your king's pride. I will always wait for a letter from you in the future." Began to appear a smile of emotion from her lips
"I will always wait for a reply from you always, my dear." Shem kissed Adaline on the forehead.
How heavy Shem is, actually leaving Adaline. Since they were in a love relationship, even though they were never far away. And whenever Shem felt homesick, he freely came to Serafin's Palace. And if it's Adaline who misses Shem. Then a messenger will come to Sadrach to convey to Shem.
Only the next one week for the two of them to meet each other, after which Shem must go on a horse to Mercussa Country, of course, will be escorted by the palace entourage to study at the Royal Great. They only hope. So that their love will not be vanished by the time and distance that will separate them both later.
"I promise you Adaline, after I graduated from there, when I was twenty-one years old. I will ask my parents to propose to you. We'll get married later. At that time you were nineteen years, right?" Shem made a promise to Adaline.
"Really Shem?" Adaline was surprised and looked at Shem with sparkling eyes, she did not expect to receive a promise from Shem. A promise that is sure to be the dream of all future girls.
"Really, the king's downfall will not break his promise. Trust me, and we look forward to that day." Shem hugged Adaline tightly again.
"I can't wait to marry you, we will be happy and nothing will separate us," Adaline smiled even more.
"Yes, like our parents. Happy with our children later." Shem replied warmly.
Both of them dissolved in sadness because they wanted to meet a long separation, for the next three years. Shem hugged his lover tightly. They gave each other warmth and love before the day of separation. They then kissed intimately and with great affection as if for the last time. Because after that they won't be able to meet again, let alone hug or kiss like this? Witnessed by nature, rivers and groves of trees looking at those who fall in love with each other.
After the incident, Shem went to study in the Royal Great. Makes Adaline's heart completely paralyzed. She must learn to get used to her own state again. How she must harbor longing and keep waiting for the middle date to get news from Shem, her lover from his loyal bodyguard. Her days were full of gloom. She wrote a letter every day, so that by the middle date she could leave fifteen letters. She thought Shem should also reply to all the letters she wrote later. Because every day she feels something different. And she wanted to spit it out in those letters to Shem.
Shem also felt the same way, even though he was very busy with his education and had little free time, but he always thought of his lover who was far away in Serafin. Until now, their respective families, especially their parents, do not yet know about their love story. They managed to keep it a secret for so long. They promised that after turning twenty they would tell their parents.
Their long distance relationship, even though it feels tough, they are able to live well, because both of them prioritize mutual loyalty and trust in each other. They really did keep their first love.

Adaline as Masyayel begins to open her eyes, she awakens from her delusions of her long distance relationship with Shem during the past three years. She thought it was the toughest moment in their relationship, but it turned out that this moment was the hardest for their love relationship. Time is not the distance and time that will separate them, but status and social circumstances that become barriers to their current love. When the long distance relationship was successful they both lived until now they can be together. And now that they are facing the bigger and most dangerous problem, they are sure that they will be able to get through together. Originally the two always face it together. Support each other and provide mutual support.
"I have to wake up Shem, Uncle Elliot will find me, I have to deliver breakfast for you. I'll take it first, okay?"
"It's okay, I'm holding you here. Let me take my own breakfast in your uncle's room, you just rest here first. After breakfast I have an event to go with my father. You can stay in my room until I come home. Enjoy the atmosphere as a princess again. by being in my room. Shem gives a towel to Masyayel, Shem also wears the towel too.
After the girl pinned the towel, she didn't expect that Shem would lift her body and carry her. She really blushed and the girl then lay down on Shem's luxurious bed.
"You, rest here first. I will tell Uncle Elliot that you are off first to help him,"
"Thank you Shem, I never thought you were a loving man. You've done so much for me,"
"For what? I thank you, you have given everything to me. I also apologize, still can not find another way out,"
"It's okay Shem? I understand your position. I'm starting to like my new self, as a servant girl named Masyayel. It's very unique and I feel younger because Masyayel is seventeen years old. Even though I'm twenty years old." The girl's body was laid down by Shem on the bed slowly. He kissed Masyayel on the cheek. Then stroked her hair lovingly.
Shem left the room to get his food. Because he also felt his stomach was hungry. The hot activity with Masyayel really drained him. He also can't be late for the next schedule. He will be invited to accompany his father to the colony Kingdom on an important matter which he himself does not know what is it? Because it was his father's order. So he must comply.
