2 One

That night in a luscious palace inside the room of the first princess of the Qui Kingdom. A man stood beside the window letting the chilly wind of the winter came in, not bothering the coldness it brought.

Not bothering the slightest pain with it.

Seconds after that the man lowered his head let a deep chuckle and finally closed the window.

Tomorrow he would see the face of that gullible girl once again.

--

The travel to the Capital from his temporarily home takes eight days.

In those Eight Days he had plenty of time to gather some souvenirs and food from the merchants he passed by.

Indeed no one could recognize the lately bestowed fourth prince of the largest kingdom in the continent when he dressed like a farmer.

Luckily the heaven doesn't give him an outstanding traits like what that girl told him.

Soon enough a small village came into the view of the carriage he's been riding. This village is really simple and neat.

A lot of children are playing outside of their house, the elders as always are seating under the wooden chair he made years ago.

"Big Brother Shun you're back! "

A little girl around nine years old run along with the speed of his carriage instead of answering like what he usually do. He just softly smiled and nod at the enthusiasm of the girl.

His house is found beside a lake mainly because of the fondness of his wife to water. Almost everyday since he met her, the girl never failed to say how much she likes the water because of him.

A familiar average house came into his eyes, it's still look like the plain boring abode he left every then. Well, almost the same if you excluded the now gone garden of his timid wife.

That girl really hate seeing Winter wilt the life out of it.

After settling his carriage and horse he decided to enter at the front door as usual because he knows the moment that thing makes a sound a pair of brown orbs would immediately came by. Either carrying his now 3 years old son or sweating because of the housechores.

Never -the -less he still likes seeing that girl stuttered and hide her face due to nervousness before murmuring "welcome back honey".

After all that girl alone is the only one who made him felt complete. Not the trash Royalties back at the capital or neither the Princess who's too damsel for his taste.
