2 years ago

This is your cousin, Sister Crystelle. She is older than you guys, so don't be rude to her; play with her until I get back, okay? Queen Evelyn said to her child.

"Lets go to the empress chamber." Queen Evelyn heads out from her residence and goes to the empress's palace with her maid.

"Greetings, your highness the princess and prince."I am Crystelle Elera la Soleil. I am pleased to make your acquaintance. greet Crystelle.

Princess Larissa smiles and bows. "Greetings! I am the third princess, Larissa Diane Evelyn Ophelia." I'm pleased to make your acquaintance too.

Crystelle takes a peek at a boy hiding behind the princess.

"Such a cute boy," thought Crystelle.

"My prince, can I know you too?" asked Crystelle gently.

"Sister, I am scared," said that little boy in a low voice that sounded like he was whispering.

Princess Larissa just smiled. "I am sorry, Lady Soleil, but he is a little shy."

"Come here," Princess Larissa said, grabbing her brother's hand.

"Let me introduce you. This is the fourth prince, Prince Atter Noelle Evelyn Ophelia." "He is a year younger than me, so it means he is two years younger than Lady Soleil."

Crystelle smiles while bowing a little.

"I am sorry. You must be scared." I'd like to introduce myself to you, Prince Atter.

Prince Atter feels shy.

"You're ugly," he said, then ran away and headed out of the room.

"Pardon me?" says Crystelle, startled.

"I apologize, Lady Soleil."He is the type of person who doesn't know how to express his feelings. Please forgive him. "You're a beauty, so don't worry about him." flustered princess Larissa.

Crystelle laugh. "It's alright; I don't mind it." I like that type of guy, you know? I suppose I'll be the first to open his heart the next time."Yes," said Crystelle with determination.

Crystelle takes a walk at the back of the queen's residence. There was a beautiful garden with a fascinating view.

Prince Atter! 'Prince Atter,' yells Crystelle.

Stop it! 'Don't call me any longer!' exclaimed Prince Atter.

Crystelle smile. "You're right there!"She started to run toward Prince Atter, who was lying on the tree.

"What are you doing up there?" Crystelle ask.

"Take a break," replied Prince Atter in a lazy tone.

Crystelle stares at Prince Atter silently.

Prince Atter feels Crystelle's stare is interfering with him. "What do you want now?"

Crystelle shrugged her shoulders. "Well, you don't want to talk with me, so I am going to stare at you until you give up from up there."

Prince Atter doesn't want to bother her. ' whatever. "Do as you please," he said, and then changed his position for a nap.

A few moments later...

Stop it! Don't try to climb this tree! go away! "You will fall down if you climb up here!" shouts Prince Atter from up the tree.

Crystelle feels bored because Prince Atter doesn't want to talk with her, so she tries to get near him on the tree.

"No worries! I know how to climb a tree! Crystelle replied, "Wait for me up there!" while climbing half the tree.

"You're a lady, so act like one!" screamed Prince Atter.

' Urgh! "Here I come!" shouted Crystelle again. She is now sitting on the same level as Prince Atter.

"Are you insane?"'Don't move too much; this tree isn't strong enough to hold us all!' worried prince Atter.

Crystelle was shocked' what? Why don't you say so earlier? now, what are we gonna do? '.Crystelle scared.

Crystelle starts to shed tears.

Don't cry! You make it even worse! Stop it, "mad Prince Atter."

"I'm sorry, but I'm afraid."I cannot help it! Crystelle started to cry.

Prince Atter is speechless and doesn't know what to do.

sigh. Okay, sister, come here." Slowly crawl to me; I will get us down from here," suggests Prince Atter.

Crystelle hesitated at first, but then she slowly crawled toward Prince Atter.

Kreakk..

' wait! "Stop right there!" shouted Prince Atter.

Take a peek at the twigs near Crystelle.

"Now, just jump at me." "I will catch you," said Prince Atter while spreading his hand to catch Crystelle.

Crystelle hesitated again. "Here I come!" warned Crystelle: "Make sure to catch me properly."

Crystelle jumped, and Prince Atter caught her in his embrace.

Crash! Crystelle's climbing twigs have fallen to the ground.

'We're saved!' exclaims Crystelle.

Crack!

They both turn in that direction." What is that sound from earlier?" asks Crystelle in Prince Atter's embrace.

' uwahh? Kyaarghh?!'

bam!

' ouch! "We feel down," said Crystelle.

"I understand... but can you get up now? You are heavy." Prince Atter inquires.

They were lying down together on the ground. Crystelle blushed and hurriedly got away from Prince Atter.

"I apologize."Please accept my apologies, my prince.'" Crystelle immediately apologizes to him.

Prince Atter was stunned. 'haha! what? Now you've become polite again? After you ignored my warning earlier, you started to be polite and act like a lady. "You're so interesting!" laughed Prince Atter.

Crystelle feels embarrassed.

"You're the one who ignored my call first!" mad Crystelle.

' Okay! okay! Don't be mad. I am sorry. pfftt' Prince Atter laughed again.

"Don't laugh!" cried Crystelle again.

His laughter has grown louder.

Crystelle smiled "What are you so happy about?" pfft! Stop it, Atter!

"Pfftt! hahahahahha!" they laugh together.

Every maid and the royal guard who comes because of the loud voice makes a puzzled expression when they see them laughing.

"Are you two really okay?" "Did your heads get knocked down by the twigs?" asked Princess Larissa, worried about them.

Crystelle smiled at Prince Atter after their laughter subsided.

"It's fine, princess." "It's nothing," said Crystelle while getting up from the ground.

Crystelle should confront Prince Atter.

"I am delighted to meet you, Prince Atter," she said, smiling.

Prince Atter smiled back.

"Same goes for you, sister Elle."

Princess Larissa made a face full of confusion.

"It appears that Atter has opened his heart to you, lady Soleil," she said. congrats. ' Smile at Princess Larissa, even if she has no idea what happened between them.

Crystelle smiled back.

"Didn't I say that already?"proud Crystelle.

Since that time, Crystelle has had a good relationship with the third princess and the fourth prince.

But she is unaware of the feelings of love he has harbored for her the entire time. It's a secret he's kept to himself forever.
