"Greetings Gressilia.
I purposely sent you a letter. I want you to believe that my love is serious for you Gress. I only love you Gressylia, I have never loved any other man but you. Even I don't care that we are from different castes, and that caste is what hinders our love from uniting.
I beg of you to fight just a little bit for me and you Gress. I will tell my father if you are my lover. I won't choose any of the four man. I hope you can understand this. Please fight for our love, I will fight from now on.
Greetings Princess Cerllynda."
Gressylia squeezed the brown paper tightly. He didn't intend to fight, but he couldn't let Princess Cerllynda fight alone. However, this will make Princess Cerllynda more and more difficult every day because King Carlin will never follow Princess Cerllynda's wish to marry a young man from the lowest class.
Gressylia is currently stricken by confusion between fighting for her love like Princess Cerllynda's wish or giving up and letting her idol marry a man she doesn't love, of course this marriage will not make Princess Cerllynda happy at all, on the contrary.
"What should I do?" Gressylia whispered with a confused expression on her face. On the other hand, he wants to get his girl, but on the other hand he is too cowardly to fight for this love.
"It's late Brother, why haven't you slept yet?"
Gressylia turned to her side, there was Rana who was standing in the doorway with a face watching Gressylia who seemed to be dreaming with her arms tightly gripping a piece of paper from Princess Cerllynda.
"Then why is my sweet little sister here? You woke up Rana?" Gressylia said very softly as she crouched down against her little sister's body. Rana smiled slightly at Gressylia's gentle question.
"Yes, I want to drink Brother. But, I saw that you haven't slept yet," answered Rana honestly. Gressylia smiled slightly at her sister, stroking her long, messy black hair.
"Come on, let me get you a drink!" asked Gressylia to bring her little sister inside. She pours water in a glass for Rana. The little girl accepted it happily, gulping it down to the toilet in one gulp.
"Now, let we sleep!" invite Gressylia to take Rana to the room and cover the girl.
He also lay down next to Rana. Gressylia's small house only has one room that is occupied by her and her two twin sisters.
He smiled slightly at the calm faces of his two sisters who were fast asleep. His thoughts began to wander without direction, so many were swirling in his head right now, one of which was about his parents and Princess Cerllynda at this time. What if Princess Cerllynda seriously asked King Carlin to marry him off to Gressylia, a poor young man from the lowest caste. It felt like this night was longer than the previous nights.
***
Princess Cerllynda still faithfully stood on the balcony of her room, enjoying the breeze that blew non-stop, blowing her long hair which she had deliberately pulled behind her back. She was hoping that the man she had sent the letter to would reply to the letter. However, in fact up to two hours he sat on the available chair on the balcony.
"I don't know what your decision is Gress, but I hope you will fight with me. Get ready for tomorrow Gress, maybe everyone will be angry with my wish," Princess Cerllynda muttered as she walked into her room. He closed the door and the open curtain of the window. It was too late to sleep.
However, he couldn't even close his eyes a bit. His heart was filled with anxiety and fear with the decision he made. After a long time he just rolled around on the bed until he fell fast asleep by himself.
***
Time flew by so fast, as if Princess Cerllynda had just fallen asleep, but she had to be woken up by the sunlight pouring into her room. The beautiful girl looked up and pulled away the blanket, moved away from the bed to the window and opened the curtains wide allowing all the sunlight to enter fully into the room. He inhaled the fresh air that burst into his nostrils, then he exhaled slowly.
"Today is the time. I hope everything will be fine," said Princess Cerllynda with her hands cupped as if she was praying for a smooth day.
Today is where the four man will gather in the kingdom to await an answer from Princess Cerllynda. Maybe they were all getting ready to visit the kingdom.
"Excuse me Princess, this is your dress, warm water for bathing is ready," said the maidservant Princess Cerllynda approaching her and standing behind her, she just nodded slowly and waved her arm signaling for her maid to leave her alone.
"I think I'm a little nervous," Princess Cerllynda muttered playing her fingers over and over again.
He decided to get ready, besides the bathtub was already filled by his maid. He immediately went into the bathroom and soaked there for a few minutes.
After nearly 30 minutes in the shower, he finally came out and started blow-drying his blonde hair. Then she started to put on her dress slowly. Of course she didn't do it alone, there were two maids helping her put on her dress and do her makeup.
"Princess what kind of hair do you want?" asked the maid asking for today's hairstyle. Princess Cerllynda just rolled her eyes, indicating that she wanted to be as usual with her hair in a neat barn. While applying makeup, of course, she always refuses her maid, she prefers to do it herself without help.
"The princess is very beautiful today," said the two maidservants. Princess Cerllynda smiled a little while saying thank you.
After all, every day they will surely praise her beauty, even without makeup, Princess Cerllynda is sure she will still look beautiful. The last is to put a crown on her blonde hair, she looks very beautiful.
After seeing his appearance in the mirror reflection, he finally stepped out of his luxurious room into the main room where the dining room was located. King Carlin must be waiting for him at this time. He continued to walk down the stairs with his two maidservants trailing behind him, all the maids and soldiers saluting as Princess Cerllynda passed by.
When he arrived at one of the doors which was none other than the room he was going to. The two soldiers guarding the door saluted and opened it for Princess Cerllynda. He stepped in very gracefully toward King Carlin who was already sitting in his chair.
"Good morning, Dad," said Princess Cerllynda very politely.
"Sit down and enjoy your meal!" said King Carlin, returning his daughter's greeting.
Princess Cerllynda sat on her curvature and started to fill her empty plate with some delicious food that had already filled the rectangular dining table, just the two of them, even though the dining table was enough for 10 people.
