After Raeanna left, I went back to the field. I’ll never forget what Raeanna said, her screams and cries. Prince Augustus despised Raeanna simply because of the decision she made for her family. Raeanna, who felt very guilty about her decision, blamed herself, although it was for her own good. I feel sorry for them. Both are in pain and are suffering. THIS WORLD IS TOO CRUEL. The practice game ended, and Borstal won, so Windsor came out in tears. Well, this isn’t the actual game yet, so they shouldn’t be too affected. The prince went straight to his private room, where I thought of giving him the macaroons again. “Prince Augustus,” I said as I handed him the box of macaroons, smiling. “I made this, especially for you. I want to wish you luck, but since Borstal won the practice game, I’ll give it to you to congratulate you on your victory over Windsor University. Chef Och, of course, taught me how to make macaroons. I hope you enjoy it.” When Prince Augustus took the box in my hand,
“Gemma.” Prince Emmanuel handed me a can of soft drinks. “That’s all the vendors at your school have, just put up with it,” I nodded. “Thank you, Prince Emmanuel,” he said, then he sat down next to me. “What are you doing here, Prince Emmanuel?” I asked. “I found out Borstal had practice against Windsor. I thought of going, but it looks like I’m late.“ he paused. “Gemma, don’t cover for him if Cynfael hurt you. He should...“ I shook my head. “Prince Augustus didn’t hurt me. He had nothing to do with my crying earlier. Please, Prince Emmanuel, don’t be mad at him. I don’t want to be the cause of your fight.” Prince Emmanuel suddenly placed his hand on my head and smiled. “All right,” While waiting for the prince to come out, I told Prince Emmanuel how Borstal’s game was earlier, especially how competitive Prince Augustus was to win, even though that was just a practice game. “Too bad you didn’t see how good the prince was in the practice game earlier. He was the only one who scored
Lincoln was a big help in keeping an eye on Prince Augustus while I was in the music studio preparing for the upcoming event next month. He did this for two weeks, and when I asked him why he was helping me, Lincoln’s only response was, “YOU LOOK LIKE A FOOL WAITING HERE.” I’m not sure whether I’ll be happy or annoyed, but because of that, Lincoln became my friend, my first close friend in Borstal. “Can you please go to the music studio? Stop asking nonsense questions!” Lincoln said, obviously pissed off. “I’m not going to stop until you tell me what’s up with you and Prince Augustus,” I said, teasing grin. “Do you like him? Don’t worry. I won’t judge you.” “I like him a lot...” my eyes almost widened when he said that. “Because he’s my best friend, OKAY?” he clarified. “Don’t deny it; I can see it in your eyes.” I pointed to Lincoln’s eyes. “That you like him as in like, not just as a friend,” I joked. “Gemma, I’m straight.” He turned around and was about to leave when I blocked
"What happens earlier?" King Lucien asked. "Mr. Eduardo said that you and Lincoln fought. Why? And what was the reason for your fight?"The prince did not answer. He was just standing and spacing out."I'm talking to you, AUGUSTUS!" It startled me when King Lucien slammed the table. "Do you think I didn't see what you did to Gemma? Mr. Eduardo left a copy of the CCTV near your private room. I saw how you pushed Gemma.""Your majesty, P-Prince Augustus didn't mean to push me. I was the one ..."King Lucien raises his hand, indicating that I stop. "Please, Gemma, don't cover him for his wrongdoing against you. Tell me the truth, does he always do this to you? ""No, your majesty." I shook my head."Yes, I enjoy hurting Gemma, seeing her suffer every day. And just thinking about her makes me sick." Prince Augustus turned his gaze at me. His face looked calm, but his eyes were set ablaze. "The longer it lasts, the more I want to torture her.""Enough!" King Lucien said out loud. "What do y
It's been two days since Raeanna departed, but before she did, I still tried to persuade the prince to stop Raeanna from going. "Are you going to sit there and watch Raeanna leave? Why don't you fight for her?" "Shut the hell up!" "Go after her. You are the prince. You can even bring the plane to a halt. We're both aware that you want her. You still have feelings for Raeanna." "SHUT UP! I don't care if she leaves; Raeanna abandoned me to suffer alone." "No, she didn't! Sorry if I was rude, but Raeanna did not abandon you. Raeanna only needs to decide on his family first." "It's the same thing." He grasped my arm and squeezed it. "Don't give me shit you don't know about." The prince let go of my hand right away. "Get out of here now." Here I am again, seated, waiting for the prince to come out from his private room. I was alone and unaccompanied. I haven't been able to speak with anyone after Lincoln got suspended. Well, Emmet is here, but he can't talk nicely. I can't even go to
As I rushed to the gate, I spotted Allerick and Blythe sitting next to the guard, waiting for someone to pick them up. I tried not to weep because I wanted to show them a smile, not my tears. "Hey, you mischievous kids!" I yelled out while waving my hand in the air. "ATE!" They dashed out the door and flung their arms around me. "How come you're here?" Allerick leaps for pleasure. "I told you, Blythe, ate Gemma was coming home." "OK, you win," Blythe replied, frowning. "It's nice you're here, ate. Allerick won't force me to come to you every day." I messed up both of their hair. "How are things going?" "We're fine," Allerick responded. "It's a relief to know you're all okay," I said. "How did you do while I was gone? Aren't you causing Mama's head to hurt?" "It's Blythe who gets on mama's nerves every time she asks about Ki..." Blythe abruptly shut Allerick's lips, preventing him from finishing whatever he was about to say. "Can we go home? I'm sick of all the things we did."
The joy in her eyes can be seen the minute she has eaten with Allerick and Lincoln. It was so much fun that I didn't know it was time to return to Borstal. Lincoln reminded me of a text message. Lincoln Royu: I hate to say this, but it's time to go, Gemma. To: Lincoln Royu OK, but can I have five more minutes? I just want to say goodbye to them properly. Lincoln Royu: OK, After drinking the glass of water, I cleared my throat. "How's the food?" I came to a halt. "Um... ah, Kuya Samuel is on his way to pick you up here." "Is it only us? You're not coming with us?" Blythe asked. "How can I say this... ah I-I can't go home yet, Ate still has a lot of schoolwork to do. Remember when I said I'd return with Papa?" I said as an excuse. "Don't you think they're giving you too much work? Can you say no, ate?" Blythe paused. "The house is too lonely when you're not there," she barely whispers. "Please!!" "B-Blythe... I'm sorry, but even if I wanted to go home, I couldn't since I had a
I couldn’t help but smile as we were on the trip back to Borstal, even though something unexpected had happened. The vehicle remained parked behind Borstal, where we had exited. He turned off the car engine, and we got out of the car and entered the gate. We caught Emmet asleep on a nearby bench in the prince’s private chamber. Lincoln chuckled. "This loafer." He brought his face up to Emmet. He patted Emmet’s brow. So, it awoke. "What the..." "Loafer, wake up!" "Jeez!" he screamed as he shoved Lincoln. "Lincoln! Darn you! You can wake me up without putting your face into mine." "I told you to keep an eye on the prince and not fall asleep." "You think I’ll just stand there staring at him all day?" Emmet gets up. "How was your trip?" "It was fun," I replied. "Good, my time spent watching after the prince should not be wasted." "As though you did something, all you did was sleep the entire time. Are you certain the prince is still there? You might not have realized he had gotte
