"What did you say, Lady Yassi? Something happened between you and Prince Karim last night?" Flera asked incredulously after hearing what she said.
Yassi couldn't stop herself from crying. "Yes, Flera. But I didn't mean that to happen. I was drunk last night. When he approached me I saw Reikel face and I thought he was the one who approached me. I didn't think it was Karim.""Miss Yassi," that was all Flera could say. She did not know how to appease her. She just hugged her and gently stroked her back. "I can't face Reikel anymore, Flera. I'm a dirty woman," she said still crying. Flera shook her head before speaking. "That's not true, Lady Yassi. You didn't want it to happen. It's not your fault. The culprit is Prince Karim because he took advantage of your drunkenness." Yassi did not comment on what Flera said. No matter what she says it will never chBoth Yassi and Flera were unable to move from their positions when they heard the accusing voice of the man whom they had asked earlier at Ermin's house location. His eyes widened as he shifted his to her and the corpse lying on the floor."No. You're mistaken. We didn't kill him," replied Yassi who was the first to recover from the shock. "When we arrived he was already dead.""Liar! You're already caught in the act but you're still trying to deny the crime that you did!" the man shouted at her and then suddenly asked for help from other people."We didn't kill him," Flera insisted, she suddenly recovered from the shock when the man shouted for help."He won't listen to us. It looks like he killed Ermin so he is shifting the blame to us so that he can avoid the punishment," she rebuked Flera as she approached the man to convince him that they didn't kill Ermin.
Yassi and Flera spent the night inside the cave where they both fell. They thought of getting out of the cave tomorrow in case the soldiers were still chasing after them outside the cave. They endured hunger and thirst. They just thought that when they got back to Yanda they would eat delicious foods as much as they want.The was already up when they woke up the next day because they could see the ray of the sun once they looked up. All they had to do now was find the way out of that cave."Hopefully we can find an exit way, Lady Yassi," Flera told her as they walked inside the cave and searched for a possible exit tunnel."Don't lose hope, Flera. We can also find a way out," she said to encourage her. They tried to pass a few tunnels but all ended up at the dead end.It seems that God granted their request because they soon found a small passage. They predicted that it was the
Yassi held her breath and waited to see how Reikel would react to what he heard from his older brother's mouth."What do you mean, my brother?" Reikel's question to Karim. His expression is not good and it seemed he is just controlling his emotion.Karim faced the younger brother and with a smile on his lips spoke to him. "I know you got what I mean, Reikel. Or maybe you want me to you every detail of what happened to us that night?"To Yassi's surprise, Reikel's fist suddenly hit on Karim's face. The soldiers of the opposing sides automatically pointed their swords with each other.Karim did not agree not to retaliate with a punch to his brother. He immediately inflicted a powerful blow on Reikel's face. The siblings exchanged powerful blows. Their soldiers, on the other hand, did not know whether to separate the two princes or just let them break their faces. They prefer the
After what happened between them inside the cave, Reikel becomes extra sweets to Yassi until they finally reached his manor. Sauran glared at her when she saw her with Reikel entering the manor. While Consort Reina hugs her son and welcomes her home to her surprise. She didn't know what happened when Reikel's mother becomes suddenly nice to her."Welcome home, Assi. And I hope that you won't run away again so my son won't be worried sick anymore," Consort Reina told her and then gives her a warm hug. "Thank you for saving my son that day," she whispered weakly at the back of her ear.Now she knows why Reikel's mother suddenly treated her nicely. And she was so glad to hear about it. Her enemies inside the manor finally become her friend."I have to save him, Mother," she also whispered weakly so that the people around them won't hear their conversation.
Yassi and Flera went out in the market to buy a popular moon cake. She wants to learn how to bake that pastry because she wants to bake it for Reikel and Consort Reina who was now very nice to her. "Are you sure you know where we are going to buy those cakes, Flera?" she asks her maid. They were already walking in the market for about an hour but they still couldn't find the store of the moon cake.Flera scratches her head as if she doesn't know how to answer her question. "The last time I saw the stall of that man who makes moon cake was located in this area. But I don't know why we couldn't see him right now."Yassi took a deep sigh. She's disappointed. She thought that she could buy that moon cake and learn to bake it for her wife and mother-in-law to be."Just let it be. Maybe we could see him next time we visit here," she holds Flera's hand and walks to
When Yassi regained consciousness, she was already in Reikel's room and lay down in bed. She moaned softly when she felt the painful part of her back where she was hit by the paddle."It's good that you're awake, Assi. How are you feeling?" Reikel asked her anxiously. He was next to her and holding one of her hands. His face showed intense concern for her."I'm fine. My backbone is hard so won't break easily," she replied with a smile."You still get to joke even if you feel something pain in your body," said Consort Reina who was also in the room and on her head so she didn't see her right away."I'm fine, Mother. Don't worry," she told Reikel's mother so she wouldn't worry her anymore."Fortunately I found Morry so I was able to tell him about your message. If I hadn't found him the prince wouldn't have known where you were and maybe something bad had h
It’s only been a day but Yassi feels it’s been ten years since Reikel left with his army to defend the Ylandia border that barbarians want to occupy. She has no appetite and just locks herself in her room with Reikel. She should have forced him to bring her along with him because she could help them. She could heal wounded soldiers. Why didn't she think of that before they leave? The days passed quickly and a day without Reikel by her side lasted ten days. She wants to go wherever she was but she did not know the way to the Northern border of Ylandia, the province of Yeran. The former Yassi who was always lively is now sad and alone inside their room and reminiscing in her mind of all the happy moments she had with her husband. "Assi, you're sad again," she was slightly surprised when Consort Reina spoke. In the depths of her thinking, she didn't notice Reikel's mother who just entered the closed room. She came over
On the same day, the king sent Yassi to Yeran with some soldiers to protect her. She took Flera with her because she would not allow her to leave without her. Because just like what she said that wherever she is Flera is also there.They only left secretly because Reikel might have enemies around and do her harm to get revenge on the prince while traveling. And as they traveled she never stopped praying that she would not be too late. Hopefully, she will still be able to reach the people she is going to, especially her husband."Flera, ask the soldiers if we are still far from Yeran," she ordered Flera uneasily.Flera shuddered as she looked at her. "Lady Yassi, we haven't even crossed the border of Yanda yet but I can't count how many times you have instructed me to ask the soldier if we are still far from Yeran. And even if I don't ask the soldiers any more, I know that we are still far away because we have just passe
