Aric - " No, it's not revealing. Just show me. I will choose one. "

Elina - " Fine. Then come with me. "

They went upstairs. Aric chosed the best dress, I mean the party wear, long dress she had. She also thought it was good. So she dressed up and put on make up and made a latest hairstyle of modern era. She looked like an fairy angel. It was the time to go to the ball room. Aric thought she would be nervous. So, he went to Elina's room. And guess what? He was right. Elina was so nervous that she couldn't even move a little. Aric was surprised by her beauty and make up art.

Aric - " Wow. You are looking gorgeous. When did you learn this art? Aren't you a writer? "

Elina - " I am not only a writer, but also a fashion designer and a make up artist. Well if I say the best and mysterious fashion designer and make up artist, then it will more suitable. If you don't believe me, I can show you the latest news in the social media. "

Then Elina showed him the headlines of social media, where she was in the hot search topic everywhere.

Aric - " Wow. So, you are a genius in this field also. "

Elina - " You can say that. "

Aric - " Wow. You are great. In our era no one can do this. Anyways, let's go to the ball room. You are sitting beside me, today. After all you are the queen. "

Elina - " Thank you. You came in time. I was so nervous. "

Aric - " I knew it. Let's go, now. "

Elina - " Okay. "

Then they left for the ball room. When they arrived there, everyone was shocked to see the queen attending the party, including Dicky.

Elina - " ( Whispering ) Aric, I think Dicky will be in danger. So don't leave him even for a second. "

Aric - " Okay, got it. "

Aric understood Elina's words. Because he heard every single word of Elina at the night, the day before.

Dicky - " Mom, you said you can't make it to come here, right? Then,... "

Elina - " I said that. But I have to come. Cause it's my cute son's birthday. "

Dicky - " Thank you for coming, mom. It's the best gift ever. But are you okay now? "

Elina - " Yes, I am totally fine now. "

Soury - " Welcome back, your highness. But how come you didn't bring any gift? "

Elina - " He got the gift before hand. "

Dicky - " Yes, mom gave me the world's best gift. No one except her can give it to me. It made my 6th birthday special. "

Soury - " Ooo, is that so? Then tell us what was the gift? We all want to know. "

Dicky - " I am sorry, concubine Soury. I promised my mom. I can't tell anyone what is it, except for dad. "

Soury - " I am sure, it's so cheap. That's why you don't want to tell us. I can understand. ( Acting Pitiful ) I am sorry. I unwantedly humiliated you. I didn't mean to, but I was just curious. I am sorry. Please forgive me. "

Dicky - " How ridiculous! Excuse me, concubine Soury, it's a heavenly gift, okay? "

Elina - " ( Calmly ) It's okay. I can understand, concubine Soury. Cheap people always thinks bad for another person. No one can help it. "

Aric laughed silently. He enjoyed the drama for the first time. He loved the way Elina gave Soury the answer. Dicky laughed loudly at that. Soury was so mad.

Soury - " ( Loudly ) You? How dare you? You called me cheap? "

Elina - " ( Calmly ) I didn't. But you are admitting that. I have no fault. Ooo. What a headache! I don't talk any longer to the animals. "

Soury - " ( Angrily and Loudly ) How dare you? You called me animal? "

Elina - " ( Calmly ) No, I didn't. But I was talking to a cute puppy before, because I couldn't resist it's cuteness. I didn't tell that you are an animal. But seeing that you thought I told that to you, I think I wasn't wrong. "

Hearing this, Aric couldn't control and laughed loudly. Soury felt humiliation because of this. The whole kingdom was shocked. Because Aric not only smiled but laughed. Because Aric didn't even smile for whole 6 years. But this time was an exception. Everyone felt happy. But Soury was so angry. She wanted to embarrass Elina.

Soury - " How about, remove your extra make up? You are no match for me in your true self, I mean without make up. "

Elina - " ( Calmly ) Ooo. Is that so? Then bring me water."

Aric was worried about Elina. He thought that Elina will embarrass herself. But Elina saw him and smiled at him. He understood from her smile that Elina had a plan for it. Then a servent gave her water.

Elina - " How about, we two together remove our make up and show everyone who is more beautiful? "

Soury - " ( Hesitantly ) Why, Are you worried that I will beat you with my make up on? "

Elina - " ( Calmly ) No, no. You are over exaggerating yourself. I think everyone should witness who is more beautiful. Because you are known as the most beautiful woman in the Kingdom. "

Soury Hesitantly agreed. Then both of them washed their faces in front of everyone. Everyone was shocked including Aric and Dicky. Soury has so much dark spots on her face and it was truly ugly.

Elina - " What now? Do you still compete with me? "

Everyone talking to each other - " No one can compete our queen in case of beauty. Not even the so-called number one beauty of the kingdom, Concubine Soury. "

Soury went to the king.

Soury - " ( Acting pitiful ) My king. Sob, sob. Sister even dared to humiliate me in front of everyone. Sob, sob. "

Elina - " ( Calmly ) Ooo, you are complaining to the King. But I think you started all this. Am I not right? "

Aric smiled and nodded.

Elina - " You repeatedly asked me how I dared to say that things. Let me ask you who are you to say those type of things to a Queen of an entire kingdom? "

Soury - " ( Acting pitiful ) Sorry, sister. I didn't mean to say that. But.... I hope you can understand sister. "

Soury went away from the king angrily.

Aric - " Sit down everyone. "

Soury went to him to sit beside him.

Elina - " ( Calmly ) Again. Don't tell me you think yourself a queen. Since I am here. Isn't it my seat? "

Soury - " Sister, what are you saying? My King gave me the right to sit here. When you were not here, the order was released. "

Aric - " But that's because she wasn't willing to come to the court. Now she is here. So it is not your seat. Get lost. "

Soury went to another seat angrily. And Elina sat there with the king.
