"Being royalty must be tough."
"No, Lorenzo, your life isn't easy either."
"Not really. I'm doing just fine under your command, Rain. I even feel like I'm on vacation this time."
"That's way too relaxed."
I sighed and looked at Lorenzo again.
"So, when do I need to leave?"
"Well, I've arranged for your return exactly one week from today."
"So, my stay here is just cut short by a week. Got it. Anything else?"
"No, that's all."
"I see."
It seemed that was all.
A silence settled between us. I didn't feel awkward anymore, but doing nothing felt boring. I mean, we hadn't seen each other for two months, and our conversation was already over.
"Lorenzo, got any topics?"
"You're always so abrupt. Let's see… Oh, speaking of the difficulties of royalty, is Cyril really like that?"
