Go on a date with me

She and I both sat on the bed and she said "That is because she is my cousin."

"Cousin!!?" I shouted not because this can't be possible but because I never thought about it actually.

"Yes. We grew up together, Her mother is sister to my mom. After my father died she was the only person who was in contact with me." She said, after a break she continued "She grew up without a father, to support her family family my aunt took a job as a maid in the palace and then was continued by Erica. I, Alex and Erica played together. She came here after the King proclaimed this place."

Now I understood the complete story.

"Hey, but why did you want to come close to the maids?" She asked.

"Because the maids are person who are allowed everywhere. They can go to a place with high profile people and discussions where I won't be able to and The maid can enter and easily listen to the discussion." I said.

Alexa nodded a little and said "Nice choice. I am allowed to go near quite high profile people because as you might have heard I am the best." Then she laughed.

I laughed and then we talked a lot about our family and village and life or I could say love life. I told her about Andy and the kidnappings.

Then after sometime it was night and again I had to see the King's face while eating. I hated eating with the king only because I hate eating while seeing his face.

Then I slept.

Next morning was quite a normal day with no plans and problems. I got ready wearing a normal dress. There was only one problem today which was that I had to meet the king.

I was not allowed to go out so, he wanted to tell me every bad talk about me that the people are talking about me but except that I was free.

I took a book and started reading when Alexa came and she told me that there was a meeting today. I told her to go and spy on the meeting. Fortunately she was called to serve people there in the meeting.

I was sitting quietly reading the book and waiting for that King who I didn't want to see.

When suddenly I heard the vase fall down on the door of my room. There was a man in soldier uniform but I thought that the meeting would take place and at this time no soldier would be free enough to knock down the vase.

He turned behind to say sorry and my eyes couldn't believe the man I was seeing infront of me. It was the same messy hairs and the same deep eyes and the same courage. It was Andy.

I thought that I was dreaming again so I kept silent for sometime. Then I realized that in my every dream he did knock down the vase but it never broke but this time it really broke.

My imaginations never talked but his actions spoke but here he turned back and said "Sorr.." I know it was not my imagination so, now I had to abide by the rules.

I kept my hands behind and tightened them and my heart as well to call soldiers and throw him out of the palace.

I gave him a cold look when he tried to make me move and say that it was Andy the Andy she loves.

I knew that but could not agree to this atleast not now.

After calling the soldiers, I couldn't see him being taken away by the soldiers so, I turned behind.

After he was gone, I fell on the ground crying loud, very loud. I kept calling Andy but I couldn't actually go to him.

Alexa saw a man being taken out of the room as well heard my cry.

She came running and saw me fallen down on the ground, crying.

She ran towards me and took the ground beside me and pulled my head to her chest.

I cried on her shoulders for hours. She kept gracing my head. My eyes were red of crying.

Now I stopped and she took my face infront of her and said "You should stop. What happened? Tell me."

"A..Andy...." Again I cried.

She then hugged me to make me silent and said "The king is coming now to meet you. Don't make this face." She wiped my face.

"I can't meet him or else today he will be dead." I said with a angry face because after seeing Andy, I felt even more angry on the king who locked me in here.

"You have to keep patience. I can guarantee that he will understand you." She said and then pulled me up from the ground and made me sit on the bed.

I kept waiting for the king and then he came in and said all those things about people telling about me.

FLASHBACK ENDS....

.....that is how I am here and this is what happened in the last few days.

I was sitting on the bed when the prince came in "Hello madam."

I turned and saw that he kept his hand on the door frame and stood with his legs crossed.

"What are you doing here?" I asked him.

"Hey!!!! You don't even meet me."

"What are you talking? We met just now." I didn't even know the time from when I didn't meet him.

"Really!!?"

"Yah really."

"Tell me the last time we met."

I started thinking "We met just then.....No....We met just few minu.....No.... we...."

"Stop it. We met atleast two days ago before you went to meet Erica." He now lowered his hands and came inside the room.

I laughed when he said that.

He sat beside me when I said "I am sorry?"

"Hmmm you should apologize to me."

"What!!! Are you a gentleman? Yoh should tell 'No, you mustn't, it is alright' and you...." I mimicked him.

He laughed and said "I am not a gentleman then because I am going to punish you as well."

"Punish...." I made a face and said "What can I do for you sir?"

"Go on a date with me." He said.

"Date!!!?" I shouted.

"Ofcourse, We are getting married, we even have that ceremony tomorrow, we should know each other. Though I know that you are quite interesting. I hope we can make each other laugh." He said.

I never thought of going out on a date with someone but now that I am supposed to stay a considerable amount of time with this man as my to-be-husband, I should know him a little better.

"Okay, I will go on a date with you tonight but I need music." I said and then smiled.

He seemed quite happy.

"So, I should ask you a little more nicely, no?"

"hmmm"

He cleaned his throat and asked like a real rich and perfect man "Go on a date with me."
