"Even a commoner has his own struggle. At least, we don't need to run after basic amenities," Kenric asserted.
"I would choose leaving in poverty and peace rather than surrounded by problems all the time. However, at the last moment, Father agreed and didn't force me. I have to build my life as a prince more peaceful, but sometimes it seems impossible. Charlotte also suffers with me because of all the mess in my life," Édouard blurted out. He wanted to express his tortuous emotions, but there was none before whom he could vent them.
"It must be hurtful all this time," Kenric said.
"It was. I don't want to tell Charlotte about all this because she takes stress," Édouard stated. He was thankful to Kenric that he decided to accompany him on the journey too. With Kenric, Édouard was an open book. He could tell him everything without hesitating a bit.
"I understand," Kenric said. "You should have sent me a message. I would have come to Escana," he stated.
