Girls Fight
Meanwhile, when Adira returned to the front of the mall where she left Prince Dylan, she was surprised by his appearance. Adira approached Prince Dylan with a frown.
“Why are you sweating? Is it hot here?” she confusedly asked.
Dylan wiped the sweat from his forehead with the back of his hand. “You said I was going to wait here, so look at how sweaty I am. Why didn’t you think to tell me to wait inside the building to get cold?” It seems that Prince Dylan still blames Adira.
She raised her eyebrows. “Why don’t you come in? I can see you inside because the wall of the mall is clear; as long as I can see you, it’s okay.”
Prince Dylan, grumpy, turned his back on Adira and walked to the hospital, while Adira just raised two eyebrows at what the prince did.
“Really!” she followed him, using her gaze while frowning. “Just a little sweat and he’s already irritated, being used to the cold because of his country.” She shook her head and followed him.
The reason why Prince Dylan is sweaty is that he followed Adira for quite a distance. He also witnessed what Adira did in defending the child from the arrogant woman. As soon as Adira took the food plastic, Prince Dylan immediately ran back, even though he was also carrying plastic bought at the supermarket.
They arrived at the hospital and found Simon sleeping, so they quietly entered the room and prepared what they would eat for breakfast.
Meanwhile, at Paradise Castle, while Prince Franco was leaving the room, he was surprised by the servants because their actions seemed to be in a hurry. Back and forth to the kitchen, outside, and to the part of the palace where his father and mother’s thrones are.
Prince Franco was about to meet an aide, but before she passed, he stopped her and asked, “What is going on, and are you acting in a hurry?”
The servant bowed. “I’m sorry, dear prince; I don’t know why either. Queen Alice just ordered us to prepare and clean the entire palace.”
“Is that so? You can go back to what you were doing.” The servant bowed again and left completely, but Prince Franco wanted to know what was going on, so he went to his parent’s room, but they were not in it. He tried to look in the part of the visitors’ place where Queen Alice and King Felip’s thrones were.
He saw his mother busy putting cloth on their throne. The two thrones side by side belonged to his parents, and he was on the side.
“Mother, what’s going on, and all of a sudden you’re tidying up and cleaning the palace well?”
Queen Alice turned to him with a face that seemed to light up with joy. “Prince Franco, you’re awake. Have you had breakfast yet?” asked the queen while smiling at Prince Franco.
Prince Franco frowned. “Is there going to be a big occasion here, Mother?”
Queen Alice shook her head. “More than that, Franco. This is what we’ve all been waiting for, and I’m sure you’ll be glad since you’ve asked for it for so long. Tomorrow night, Paradise Castle will come alive again.” The queen patted Prince Franco’s cheek. “Eat your breakfast. Your father and I ate already because we will be busy today.” Queen Alice walked back to her place earlier.
Prince Franco was stunned and wondered what his mother meant, but eventually, he went to the dining area.
Meanwhile, while Simon was still sleeping, Prince Dylan and Adira had eaten, and now they were cleaning the table. Then they just sat on the sofa, far from Simon’s bed.
Prince Dylan spoke. “Young lady, aren’t you bored?”
She frowned. “No, why?”
He frowned. “I want to see the outside again.”
She raised an eyebrow. “Go out; no one is stopping you.”
He looked at her badly. “I mean somewhere else, not outside the hospital.”
“Simon can’t be here without someone, so you can’t go out without me because maybe later someone will suddenly kidnap you because of your looks.”
“What do I look like now?” he asked, wondering.
“You asked. Have you ever looked at yourself in the mirror? Your appearance and your skin look like they’re from another country. You might be kidnapped, and that’s a big problem.”
“I want to see the outside!” He said it like a child.
“You can even beat the child with the way you’re behaving right now.”
“Adira.” The two turned to Simon because he had woken up.
“Are you hungry? Wait I just-” She was about to stand up when he spoke again.
“You can take the prince for a walk so that he doesn’t get bored.”
She frowned. “You don’t have a guard here, so it’s not possible.”
“That’s why there is a nurse to come here every hour to check on the patient. Don’t worry, I’m fine here in the hospital; it’s even safer here for me than outside. Take her for a tour; you’re only here for a few days, so there’s even one place in our country that he can go to.”
Adira looked seriously at Prince Dylan, whom she caught smiling, but who quickly disappeared.
In her mind, “I don’t want to go out, but this naughty prince has found an ally just for what he wants to happen.”
“Later in the afternoon, you can go to a food place by the side of the road.”
“I don’t have enough money to go there anymore.”
“Don’t worry, the food there is cheap, so I’m sure you’ll still have money to ride a taxi.”
In the end, Adira agreed. Prince Dylan told Simon to thank you secretly without a voice coming out of his mouth. Simon just smiled at what the prince did.
The afternoon had come, and they were on their way to the place Simon was talking about. He just gave directions to that place.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
As soon as they got out of the taxi, they saw a lot of people. It’s like a small road that only people can pass by; it’s not crowded, it’s just that there aren’t a lot of people walking around. It is true what Simon said: There are many food vendors on the side. Adira also noticed that there were mostly young people there.
“You can’t ask me for too much food because I spent the amount you bought at the supermarket,” Adira said while folding her arms.
“It looks like the food is still good here.”
She looked at him badly. “If you don’t take too much at the mall, you can eat more here. I still don’t have a salary from my mission for you.”
“Father won’t pay you in cash. We pay in gold, and I don’t think you can use that here either because you’re using paper money.” Prince Dylan was looking at a street vendor who had a buyer who paid in paper money.
She looked at him lazily. “So you can only eat one or two meals here. Is that clear?”
Prince Dylan just nodded, and they started walking and looking around.
Dylan stopped at the ice cream vendor, which is why Adira also stopped and seemed to know what was coming next. She approached the vendor and bought, but while they were waiting because there were so many people in line, Adira frowned.
“Hi, are you single?” a woman asked Prince Dylan.
Prince Dylan just smiled at them. “He’s so handsome.” while a woman pushes a colleague out of excitement.
She raised her eyebrows. “I don’t know if these girls are in high school or college, but based on how they bring themselves closer to Dylan, I’d think they weren’t girls.”
Adira approached and stopped behind Prince Dylan. She peered at the girls. “Excuse me?”
A woman frowned, and the girl asked if Dylan was single. “Yes?” Adira replied flatly. “What do you need?”
“You are with him. Are you his assistant?”
She bit her lip at what the girl said, trying not to make a scene. “No,” she answered.
“You’re just with him, so he can talk to us. Right, girls.” The other girl agreed while Prince Dylan was wondering what was happening.
She pulled Prince Dylan behind her. “Sorry girls, he’s off limits, so just find another subject.”
“Wait, you’re just accompanying him; why are you saying he’s off limits?” said a woman with very thick red lipstick.
She grinned. “I’ll ask you too. Who are you to ask that question to him?”
The girl looked at her badly. “Let’s go, girls. I don’t want to talk to someone like her who looks like she can’t afford to buy clothes and still has wounds on her face.” The girl even looked at her from head to toe, and there was a look of disgust.
Adira’s wounds have not yet healed well. She just let it go without putting on a bandage because it wasn’t too big and the only big wound was on the side of her lip.
She folded her arms and looked at the girl from head to toe. “Before you tell me that I can’t afford to buy clothes, take a look at yourself first; I look more decent even though I have wounds. It’s not like you, who looks like you can afford to buy clothes, but why aren’t they long ones? In the clothes you’re wearing, it’s like you just took those thin clothes from the cabinet and just tied them around your body.”
It seems that the person Adira was talking to was completely annoyed, so she tried to approach and hurt Adira. What Prince Dylan did was take Adira away and bring her behind him.
“I’m sorry, young lady, but stay away as much as possible because you don’t know her behavior when she’s completely angry.” Prince Dylan smiled a little, and the girls’ faces suddenly changed.
“We’re leaving for you.” The girl was about to touch Prince Dylan’s face when Adira spoke.
“Don’t try.” while peeking at Prince Dylan’s side.
The woman just glared at Adira and left completely. Adira smiled sarcastically at the attitude of that woman.
