MYSTERY
The next day…
I woke up in the morning. The clock on the palace wall was already showing six in the morning. I saw the sun had risen from its throne. And now I'm walking with Zu towards the palace's front door. But before arriving, I met the queen.
"You came home without telling Mother, Zu. Is that what you deserve?" asked the queen, blocking our path.
"I don't need your permission." Zu answered curtly.
Eh?!
For some reason, I suddenly felt nauseous as the queen walked closer and closer to me. I immediately covered my nose so that she would not see my nausea.
"Dewi, are you okay?" However, Zu immediately noticed it.
The queen walked closer and closer and was now only three steps away from me. Her scent was powerful, and I didn't know what perfume she was wearing.
"You brought a girl to the palace, and it looks like she's going through something. What have you done to her, Zu?" asked the queen again.
