After being invited to eat, then the Princess and the Queen started their lunch
The two of them while eating their food did not forget to talk about their family, "Mom, is Dad still busy with his business?" asked the Princess when she finished swallowing her food
"Yes, your father is still busy, and there are many things that need to be handled, maybe when dinner will come back" replied the Queen
"Then what about my sister, why doesn't she come to eat together?" asked the princess again
"Your brother was invited by your father to participate in handling royal affairs because he is already 16 years old, it feels right to start studying" replied the Queen.
"No wonder he is rarely seen now, usually he will stop by my room during the day" complained the Princess
"He has to carry out a heavy task, so it's only natural that he can't accompany you to play, you're the only one on this land who roams around without a burden" the Queen criticized
"Ahhh...Mom how can you talk like that, obviously I contributed to the palace" immediately refuted the Queen's statement
"What contribution?" asked the Queen surprised
"Planting flowers, creating a Yemeni atmosphere, and much more" replied the princess with a laugh
"That's just your banter, as a royal princess your work is just playing" replied the Queen
"Well, what can I do, Mom, I'm tired in this palace, I've explored every corner" replied the Princess
"Ahhh.....poor Princess of our kingdom is confined in a cage, like a canary" laughing teasingly
"Huft .... mother can only bully"
"Yes, my beautiful daughter, I know your troubles, but this is all for your own sake and the sake of the kingdom, so you have to be patient, after all, soon you will be able to get out, right?" said the queen in reply.
"I understand mom about that, and I have accepted everything sincerely, one thing yes I can't wait to see the outside world," said with a look of hope on his face
Seeing her daughter's face full of hope, the Queen felt no guilt at having to lock her daughter within the palace grounds, without being able to see the outside world.
He initially felt this was a cruel decision, but gradually he had to give in knowing that this was a rule he couldn't change
So he comforts his daughter as much as possible by exerting his sincere love and affection on her
He is well aware of the feeling of being confined and also being restrained, although physically he is not in prison the prison of freedom is something more severe.
How does it feel when freedom is snatched away, can only see from behind a wall and can't feel even though he can see it
Especially at the age of her daughter who is still relatively young, it is a very difficult ordeal for a mother to see her child suffer and can't do anything.
Luckily their royal family only consists of four people no concubines and other royal members
So there is no need for intrigue in the bodies of royal members so that a harmonious and loving atmosphere is presented in them
And as a favorite princess, Laksmi gets a large portion of love, even though she has a younger brother
But his younger brother has a much more mature personality than him, so the one who comforts is mostly the younger brother than the older brother
And Laksmi realized that, but she couldn't do much because the longing for the outside world was too big to affect her heart and mind
So to divert his sadness, he tries to be a cheerful person with a nosy but kind nature
Making a dignified-looking palace has its warm side and laughter, along with Laksmi
Yes, many guards and servants love the princess, it happens because of the warm and distant nature that Laksmi shows them
And they know behind the innocence and antics of Princess Laksmi, there is a determination and a strong heart when deciding something.
This has often been proven by Princess Laksmi's stubborn decision regarding an opinion and decision she has made
Even the King can't persuade him, only the Queen can soften it up a bit, but even so, he can't change his decision
And the younger brother, when he finds out his brother has decided something will only smile wryly because he won't be able to help or change it, which is if he joins in persuading he will become his brother's target.
Of course, this made the younger brother give up on coaxing the princess, so the princess's wish was like a royal decree once issued no one could oppose it.
Back to the lunch the Princess and the Queen had finished their meal this time, they seemed satisfied with the food and the atmosphere
So after lunch, they decided to rest for a while in this pavilion
Taking a sip of the juice that had been made the princess spoke "Mom, do you have a favorite place in the capital?" asked the princess suddenly
"Why do you ask?" replied the Queen
"I'm just curious, what kind of place is mom's favorite" replied the princess
"Yes, if you want to know, the later mother will invite you when your exit permit arrives" replied the Queen
"Can't you tell me now" replied the princess pleading
"Not if I tell you you will think and keep asking" replied the Queen
"That can't blame me for wanting to know, who ordered me to lock up in the palace" replied the princess
" it's okay mom will give you a clue, but not the answer ok " replied the queen
"yey.... mother is the best" replied the princess cheerfully
"Well mother's favorite place, is a place where many children, a place where they gather from various backgrounds and origins" replied the queen
"What is that place? is it a school?" replied the princess
"It's not that your answer is wrong, let's guess," teased the queen
"Playground" he replied again
"It's not that you're still wrong" replied the queen again
"So what? Aren't those two places the most likely, ok, are the public places?" asked the princess
"Yes included, let's keep guessing"
"Well it's a public place, lots of children and from various backgrounds, obviously this is a public place that people know" murmured the Princess
Seeing his Daughter pondering the Queen just smiled, and waited patiently, until a moment later she shouted
"I know, is it a beach? is it a swimming pool? is it an ordinary garden?" asked with eyes full of hope the answer is correct
"Not everything is wrong dear" replied the queen
"So what? I feel like I've mentioned all the places, Ma'am, can't you give another clue" pleaded with the Queen
"Okay, because you've tried so hard, Mother, answer again, that place is also a home for them," said the queen
"Their house, and a lot of children.....aaaaa I know Mom, the place you mean is an orphanage" replied the princess
"Yup, you're right, sweetheart." He smiled in agreement.
