DuuuDunnn!

Crystelle grunted with the view in front of her.

' Oh my. That's a gift from the first prince? ' mumble all the lady at the party.

' What is this...? ' Crystelle shock in disbelief.

Hyde hold his laughter behind her.

' Are you really sure your fiance is on his right mind, Elle? ' whisper him.

Crystelle frown. ' I'm doubted it now, Hyde. I'm doubted it. '

1 hours ago.

Crystelle was hosting a tea party because her coming of age ceremony is around the corner.

' My lady, the letter from the first prince has arrived with a gift. '

Crystelle flinch and quickly seize the letter from Mia hand.

' Oh? it's that perhaps a letter from his highness, lady Crystelle? ' ask a lady from Cynne household.

' Oh? a letter from the first prince? what it say, lady Crystelle? ' ask a lady from Wyde household excitedly.

Crystelle just smile and slowly open it.

' My dear Elly, '

' I'm sorry for the gift. I really didn't mean it to be like that between us. '

Crystelle smile. ' I knew it! '

' Oh my, so gentle. ' said lady Cynne in smile.

' As for the reflection of my wrongdoing, I send a new gift for you. I hope that you like it, Elly. Whenever I saw it from my office, it's make me remind of you because of the resembles it have with you. I hope with this gift Elly will forgive me.'

' From your fiance, Prince Rigel Silas. '

Crystelle smile brightly and turn to look at Mia.

' Where's the gift? '

Everyone there's becomes so excited to know what the gift.

Mia flinch and bend her head a little.

' It's, at the outside..., my lady. '

Crystelle frown. ' Why did she's act like that? '

' Pardon me, my lady. '

Crystelle look at the door.

' Yes, Hyde? '

Hyde bow and gently bend his head to whisper at Crystelle.

' You better don't get out, my lady. '

Crystelle frown.

Mia from behind Hyde, hardly make a signal not to come out at her.

Crystelle frown and ignore them. She quickly get out from the room as to know what is the gift.

The others lady follow behind her in excitement.

DuuuDuuuun!

The view of the Soleil mansion, fills with 5 big trees in front of the Soleil gate.

And we're back at the current time.

' What's the meaning of those trees? ' mumble Crystelle in shock.

' Oh my, the first prince sure is a unique person, to send a tree as a gift for his fiance..' murmur them behind Crystelle.

Hyde still cover his mouth to hold his laughter.

Crystelle look at him and whisper.

' Is my body perhaps looks fat before he leave to the border? or my hair is a little green? or perhaps my skin is dark as a brown trunk like those trees? or my....'

Hyde can't hold it any longer with Crystelle intensely nonsense question toward him.

' You're not, my lady. ' deny Hyde in chuckle.

Crystelle tilt her head. ' Then, why..? '

' Those trees.. it's not resembles me no matter angle I look at it. What that guy were thinking? ' complain Crystelle.

' Em. Well, lady Crystelle must have been treasured by his highness, to him to send you trees like this. ' compliment lady Wyde suddenly.

' His highness so high over heels for lady Crystelle, it seem. to send a tree as a gift. ' smile lady Cynne.

Crystelle silently cries in her head. ' Stop with that nonsense. Don't try to comfort me when it obviously nonsense. such a disgraceful moment of my life.'

' Then, it's look like we will be a bother to you if we stay any longer than now. we will take our leave now, lady Crystelle. ' permit lady Cynne suddenly.

All the ladies at there's nodded agreed with her and then leave Crystelle mansion in hurried after permit themselves from there.

Crystelle close her eyes in frustration.

' I'm ashamed. ' mumble her.

Hyde cough a little. ' Should I send it back, my lady? ' whisper him.

Crystelle slowly shake her head.

' You don't have to, let the trees at our garden. They all had saw it, no used to hide it, Hyde. Make it clear to me to see it from my room then. After all, it's my fiance present, I'm gonna take a good look of it. '

Hyde nodded. ' Understood, my lady. '

Crystelle frown at she walk toward her room in annoyed. ' I'm gonna write a letter to that bastard.. '

' Now, you're going to be a unique person with this kind of gift. '

' My dear fiance, Rigel. '

' I've got your gift for my coming of age ceremony this morning and I'm.. '

Crystelle stunned for a second. ' I can't hurt his feelings even though I'm upset... '

'....and I really like it, Rigel. Thank you for the trees. I will look forward for what kind of tree it is. '

' From your fiance, Crystelle. '

****

' Just this? ' mumble Rigel.

' I thought she will get so happy and will said it really does resembles her, or something like that..? '

Aidan annoyed. ' Such a freak guy.. '

' But your highness, she send a letter on the same day as the trees arrived at her mansion. She must been in excitement with that gift. '

Rigel tilt his head. ' What you mean? '

Aidan grin. ' You're such a freak fiancée to send that kind of gift to your partner... '

' Ehem. I mean that you seem to hardly treasure your own fiance with that kind of gift.. I doubted there's must be so many lady that envious with your fiance right now at the capital, your highness. '

Rigel smile proudly. ' I think so too. That's why I chose to give it to her on a day she was holding a tea party at her mansion. '

Aidan cover his mouth to hold his laughter. ' actually I'm pity your fiance, prince.. such a disgraceful gift you had send at her... I'm really sympathize on her.. '

Throwback..

' That. '

Aidan frown and walk away to the window to look at the thing Rigel mention at.

' Seriously, that?? '

Rigel nodded confidently.

' It's a tree. A tree won't wilter, right? '

Aidan grunted.

' But, it's a tree, your highness. a tree?? '

Rigel frown. ' I know it's a tree! don't you think it resembles her, Aidan? '

Aidan stunned. ' I heard he is an intelligent person when it's about the strategies on the wars, that's why he got a title as a captain although he's still young, But, whenever he talk about his fiance, he's become a little.. no.. a really stupid person? '

' Your highness need to think about it again, it's about your fiancée.' advice Aidan.

Rigel smile. ' I've. that's why I chose that tree as a gift for her. '

Aidan exhausted. ' Your highness know that tree can't grow up and the flowers can't blooms in the capital cold weather, right? '

Rigel nodded. ' That's why I will place a magic spell on it, Aidan. As to prevent it from withered at the capital.'

Aidan grunted and his eyes begin to teary. ' When he's decided on something, he can't let it from his mind at all.. '

Aidan look at the tree in exhausted.

' That's a tree that just can grow in a hot weather like in the border. It won't grow in the capital environment no matter what method you use. but, if it his highness magic, it's might possible to grow, I think? '

Rigel smile happily at him. ' Let's give a tree as a gift for her. Hmm.. wait.. '

Aidan frown. ' Comes again? '

Rigel nodded in his thoughts.

' Let's give her 3, No, 10 of those tree. '

Aidan shock and shake his head hardly, disagree with Rigel. ' The lady mansion can't bear that amount of tree, it's already full with another plants, your highness.'

Rigel pout. ' Then, 7? '

Aidan pinch his head in frustration. ' No. '

Rigel pout even more and look at the outside in annoyed. ' Then, 5? '

Aidan try to be patience in front of Rigel.

' Why it must to be in a big amount? just give her one tree is enough, my prince. '

Rigel shook his head in disapproval.

' That tree is a rare item to be found at the capital. I need to give her many of those trees as a rare gift. '

Aidan grunted and give up instantly. ' Then, give her 5 is enough..'

Rigel smile satisfied. ' That will do, Aidan. Please inform them about this matter as soon as possible. '

Aidan sigh and nodded. He bow at Rigel politely then leave the office in exhausted. ' I can't stop his actions, lady fiancée. I'm sorry. '

Back to the current time.

Rigel chuckle excitedly on his desk. ' Should I write a reply for her now? '

Aidan shake his head disagree.

' Your highness can't, you still had your works to be done. you must to get it done before this midnight. You can reply to your fiance letter after that without getting disturbed.'

Rigel pout. ' Tsk! I hope that our empire will quickly get over that Ru. I can no longer be impatience with this stupid wars. '

Aidan chuckle in exhausted. ' I hope so too. That's why your highness must to get done your work properly if you want to quickly win this wars. '

Rigel frown. ' Tsk! this damn paperwork! '

Rigel look at the outside. ' I'm sure she must been really happy to have that tree. '

Aidan cough. ' Ehem. Well...I'm doubted it.. '

Rigel look at him in frown. ' She's happy, okay? '

Aidan begin to teary.

' I feel like I'm getting older ever since I serve this first prince.. I'm started to pity sir Oscar for having to treat him this whole time.. '
