Chapter 7 -Departure-

In the green garden, the red-orange light sprayed on the white floating square table, there were three person sat on the chair, as the three were having lunch together.

Luke was eating a well made luxurious steak while talking to Edith.

"So, tomorrow you will go to another planet?"

"Yeah, Marinus".

"Marinus!? The planet of neptunium!?"

Luke was surprised, Marinus wasn't very far from Earth however, with human technology it will take about a month to go there by the space train, which was travel with the speed beyond ultra sonic, around 12000km/second.

Felicia who seemed to be very upset sighed as she reached her hand to hold Edith hand. Looking at him with teary eyes.

"Just three years before I came back here, and I will visit my little sister every time I have a chance, so don't cry".

"That was surprisingly long, I will miss you my friend!", said Luke as he smirked.

"You..."

After the lunch with his closes, Edith and Luke decided to go meet Louis at Florida, however, Felicia pouted as she heard that and she said that she will also go too.

Edith smiled wryly, his sister was a bro-con?

However, this time they will go with Skydriven which was faster, it only took 2 hours to get there.

Louis was sitting beside the beach, looking at the sea and yellow sky, she sighed. The images of a youth appeared in her head. The black charming eyes, it was so deep, why didn't she notice it before?

The talented prince of Junianus, Edith was famous for his skills and knowledges, if there wasn't first prince the eldest son of the house Junianus, he would definitely be the one who will be king in the future, at first Louis didn't think much about him. She thought that he was a spoiled kid with handsome face, not The Third Prince!

Louis covered her face with shame, after she knew that Edith was the prince she almost cry and trying to figure out the way to escape this planet with her mother, she could die from her guilt.

Assault the royal and rude to him, but she wonder, why no one come to her house and arrested her.

"Maybe he is kind?"

Lost in her thought, a flying vehicle appeared in the sky as it landed in front of her, looking at the skydriven Louis face turned pale.

The figure stepped out as he walked towards her, "Hi, Louis", said Edith with a charming smile.

Louis looked surprised, she thought it was the guard who will arrest her, however this time she behaves.

"Greeting The Third Prince of Junianus, Louis Ellise".

Edith walked closer to her, "You don't need to be so polite. I like it better when you were yourself".

Louis shocked, she had never seen a prince like this before, she had seen some noble but most of them are spoiled brat and only a pervert gaze appeared on their face, however, this prince was different.

"I'm sorry for the last time.."

"It's was interesting for the first impression, hahaha".

Edith laughed as he reached his hand out, "Wanna go for dinner?"

In the fancy restaurant, it was a night time as the moons could be seen, even it weren't the same moon as before, the new moons were indeed beautiful.

There were three moons rotating themselves around Earth, the white moon, the light blue moon and the pink moon, with the three circles on the sky, the atmosphere was enchanted.

However, the four figures sat on the table didn't seem to enjoy, instead the intense atmosphere could be see.

Edith who was smiling brightly at Louis, who was super uncomfortable by the pair of black gazes of Felicia, with seemed to contained fire in it, as for Luke he simply stood with an interest expression as he looked around.

It was completely silence.

"Are you my brother girlfriend?" asked Felicia who was staring at Louis.

"Haha.. your highness, I wasn-".

"Maybe soon right, Louis?" said Edith with a playful expression.

Heard that, Felicia expression turned to be very scary as the dark aura could be seen around her.

"Hey, who said I'm gonna be your girlfriend!?" Louis couldn't hold on anymore as she pulled Edith collar with an angry face.

"Me?"

"You!!!"

Felicia giggled at that sight.

Louis surprised before she gained her conscious back and quickly sat down with a pale face, 'I almost punch a prince!??'

Luke laughed as he told Felicia about Edith's expression when he first saw Louis.

After that the conversations on the table started, it wasn't awkward anymore.

The food was indeed very delicious, looking at Louis while she was eating, Felicia seemed to be shocking she ate more than everyone on the table.

"This is very yummy!"

"I'm glad you like it".

"Can I get some for my mother?"

"Of course, as much as you want", smiled Edith.

"Brother. Do you really like her?"

"Hmmmm, I guess?"

"Yes, Edith liked her very much!"

Felicia pouting as she was console by Louis who stopped eating.

The dinner came to an end.

The four walked around in the restaurant garden, observing a beautiful scenery.

However because Felicia went to toilet there were only three left, Luke who knew his best friend quickly made an excuse before he disappeared somewhere leaving Edith and Louis alone.

The two sat on the bench near the cliff, as the moons sprayed the light at them.

"Hey, prince", said Louis who was staring at the moons.

"Yes?"

"Why did you do this to me?"

"Do what?"

"Take care of me.. and very kind to me".

"Because I have an interest in you?"

"That was too straight!"

"Wasn't that good?"

Edith turned to look at the figure beside him, Louis was looking another trying to hide her face.

"Well.. yeah".

"You know prince.."

"When I was a child, my family was very wealthy but.. one day the noble came to our house and tried to take my mother away because she was very beautiful but my father resisted it, not long after that.. my father died in the accident".

"...."

"After my father dead, our family business was taken away by the noble and his alliance, leaved us with nothing as he tried to take my mother again but she rejected with that he put my mother in blacklist which why she couldn't work".

"So, I decided to take care of her, I trained, I stole, I became the gang's boss and rob more people, many men tried to kidnap and rape me but I always managed to ran away, I think it because of my luck until now I gained money enough to make a small seafood shop with my father recipe, at that time I ran to you".

"You was the first person who was kind to me except my mother, you treated me different".

Heard that, Edith hugged Louis.

"Don't worry, from now I will protect you".

Louis shocked by Edith suddenly behavior, this was the first time someone hugged her with kindness a part from her family.

She was very shy and yet she cried out.

The two hugged for a while before Louis pushed Edith away as she turned her face, running away from him.

'You, pervert prince!'

However, she was glad.

It was the talented prince, he treated her with kindness.

Edith forgot to control himself as he smiled wryly, "This kind of.. good".

After sent Louis back, Edith came to the palace as he greeted his father before the departure.

Hugging his sister and his friend with their teary eyes.

"Brother.."

"I will miss you, my sweet sister".

"You too my friend".

"Please come visit me often, brother..." said Felicia as she hugged his arm.

"I promise, I will".

Edith separated from the two as he stepped on a black vehicle, skydriven flew away in the middle of a night.

Edith looked at the three moons as he muttered to himself, "Sorry, Louis I didn't tell you about my departure".

However, Edith made sure that she and her family will be protected by his connections.

And of course, he leaved the matter about the noble that took away Louis family's business.

"Wait for me".
