PHILIP'S POVAmelia asked me if we can go to the market together. She said that she'll buy some paints, actually a lot of paints since have a huge commission coming up.I'm happy for her since it's actually very expensive and she can pay her bills and buy her needs as well as her wants with it. But I'm also sad since given that it's a big canvas, it will take so much time and effort. She'll get tired. But then, if that's what makes her happy then I'm happy for her as well. For now, I'm just waiting for her to get ready. The market is quite far from here so we'll ride a vehicle which will take us there. We will ride a car. People won't recognize me right? I mean, I hope so and let's just hope for the best. After about half an hour of waiting, she finally go out from her room looking so gorgeous as always. She even turned around to show the beauty of her dress. She's wearing a green dress and a pair of white sandals."I'm so excited" she said.She also told me that it has been a
PHILIP'S POVI just got home. I've safely dropped off Amelia on her house and it's very fulfilling since I've finally drove her around the city. Holding a paper bag, I've gone straight to the kitchen and then I saw Miss Sarah. "good evening, Miss Sarah" I greeted. She did the same."how's your date?" she asked the moment that I placed the paper bag on top of the countertop."good" I answered."the car, how's the car? you know that the Queen almost won't you go to Amelia and still you even go for a drive" she scolded me. "well, at least I've got some exercise?" I joked and even placed my hands as if I'm driving. "don't do that again, huh" she threatened ,"or else, I'll tell your Mom about it""oh, so Mom doesn't know about it?" I asked. She nodded, she looks somehow stressed or something.Mom doesn't know that I borrowed a car. "it's a secret, Miss Sarah. Don't tell anyone" I joked. It's supposedly just a joke but she nodded, is it not?I took the bento box from the paper bag, Ame
AMELIA'S POVToday is the day that I will start the commission by Lorna and her friends that's why early in the morning and I already set up the things that I needed.Good thing I bought paints yesterday, I won't run out of paints anymore. It's quite big, the canvas that they chose but still, I'm very thankful.This would be the biggest canvas that I would be painting. I've already done setting up and all I need to do is to wait for them to arrive. I sat down on my sofa and watched some television while waiting for them and then I almost fell on where I was seated when someone suddenly screamed."hi, Amelia!" I saw Gione. She scared for me for a second. And then I stood up and walk towards the door. Gione already sat down on the sofa and then Lorna, Rose, and Tina just got in. "good morning" Gione waved her hands. I did the same.They're all dolled up, they looks so pretty. "you're watching something" Rose pointed out. "oh, yes. I was watching" I said and was about to turn it
LORNA'S POV"Amelia is so pretty, right?" Gione asked. We're now walking back to our rest house. I can sense that Amelia is already tired from painting for 2 hours straight so we decided to just leave and we'll go back the next three days. "why don't we just take a picture and give it to her so that she can finish the canvas even though we're not at her studio?" Tina suggested."hey, do you think we have thought about that?" Rose asked probably dissing Tina. Don't worry, we're always like this but we love each other. Our love language is dissing, fighting, scolding each other and stuffs like that. "I want to go there often" Gione said. Yes, it's Gione's suggested to just go there from time to time. And nobody tries to even hinder her. She's the youngest after all and we just want her to experience good things in life. "isn't that your Mom?" Rose asked and pointed infront.We all looked at where she is pointing."it is my Mom" Tina replied. She looked at us and we just signaled
AMELIA'S POVAnother morning and Gione is here again. I know don't expect only one visitor, I expects many people to visit me already. From Philip to Gione to Lorna to Rose and to Tina.Gione always visits me since she said that if I'll not visit her, she'll visit me.But I really can't predict when she visits. She visits for randomly. Sometimes early morning sometimes lunch sometimes evening."Ameli, look I made some bracelets" she showed me a bracelet which she said that she made with Rose."that's so nice" I said and looked at it. She then looked at me and showed me another bracelet. "I made you one as well, look it has your name on it" she said and handed me the bracelet.A M E L I "no letter A at the end?" I asked."yes, I always call you A-meh-li, not A-mel-ya" she scrunched her nose. She's so cute."thank you" I said and then she suddenly gave me a hug. "I love hugs" she said and hugged me tighter. Gione is one precious girl, she's so sweet and loving. "I have commission
LORNA'S POVIt's good that Gione and Amelia became friends for such a short time. They're literally vibing with each other like they had been friends for years.Everytime Gione go home after visiting Amelia, she always have something to tell us. Not in a bad way but she always talks about Amelia.I am not complaining though as I know that Amelia is a good person and that Gione feels comfortable towards her as well."so, what happened today, Gioni?" Tina asked as Gione gave her a hug while she's lying down and reading magazines."today we baked a cake!" she excitedly showed us a box of cake. "we already ate three slices and Amelia said that you guys should taste it too" she gave me the box and I took it in the kitchen.I placed it in a plate and took another four plates and forks and then took it with me when I go back to the living room."so, nothing much happened?" I asked.Rose got up and is the first one to take a slice. She's done with her puzzle."I baked with Philip and he's s
PHILIP'S POV"Mom I'm going out" I smiled at Mom and she just let me.I need to help Lia to prepare for the opening. "Just don't let your Dad see you" she said and then just waved a goodbye, a very elegant good bye. Graceful indeed, well what do you except for a Queen.I left the Palace successfully, Dad didn't saw me.Amelia said last night that I shouldn't bring some breakfast for today, she'll make me one. I mean, two. She'll make breakfast for the three of us. Me, Amelia, and Gione.Yes, we have a plus one. Gione is still a kid who wonders about life is indeed so playful as ever. She even told Amelia that I scolded her, I didn't! She's a very stubborn kid but I know that I should longer my patience as Amelia doesn't want me to fight with Gione right?I sighed. I can't have Amelia for solo now, there's Gione. And Gione go to Amelia's house first, I can't have time with Amelia alone. I was just about to go to Amelia's house when I saw the delivery man from the flower shop w
AMELIA'S POVAnd I am right. I am definitely right.The moment that I sensed that something is wrong with Tina, a thought of her liking Philip actually came into my mind but I didn't gave it much thought.And now, my instincts have proven me right again.Girls instincts never go wrong.I know for sure that those flowers are the flowers that Philip was about to give me.Because first, he doesn't even know Tina. And if that's the case, how can he bring flowers to someone who he doesn't even know?Another thing, I felt how Philip felt uncomfortable from all those actions by Tina.He tried to give me signals but I tried to ignore.I just don't want Tina to be embarrassed infront of Philip.Now, she's telling me that she wants to have breakfast with Philip. Okay, I'll give her. I mean, upon realization. I thought that Philip is not yet my boyfriend that's why he's still free to choose another woman since we're not in a relationship yet.I'm not guarding him. What if Tina is the really o
AMELIA'S POV"so, who is she?" I asked and smiled at Philip, "it seems like, she has a grudge against me" I tried to laugh, but Philip didn't. "She's-she's Princess Dahlia" he answered and stopped eating the strawberries. I nodded. She's pretty. "she's your fiancee. She must be angry that I am here" I answered. "both my parents like you more, plus, I can't stand her attitude" she answered. "why? both of you are in the same level. You look good together too" I answered. "Amelia" he called and held my hand. "Philip" I called as well. "If it is not you, it's not anyone right. You're the only one I like and if there's someone I want to get married with, it's obviously you" he answered."but, how about her?" I asked. "don't mind her. She won't bother us anymore" he answered. I just nodded. I don't want to keep thinking about it, but I just can't. I wanna know more about her."is there anything you're curious about?" he asked.Did he read my mind?"a lot actually" I answered. T
AMELIA'S POV Today is my third day here in the castle. Almost feel like forever indeed. I decided to stay here and not leave as I don't want to leave Philip. I don't want to hurt Philip, but it is already me who is hurting. I don't think so if this is still healthy, but otherwise, as long as he is happy, I am happy. I sat on top of my bed and from here I looked around.Today, the Queen asked me to have tea with her, but I said I couldn't. I said that I am not feeling well which is absolutely a lie since I am feeling very well today, in fact I have a lot of energies. It's just that, as much as I can, I don't want to be in the same place as her. When she's around, it feels suffocating. Before, I look up at her so much that I even admire the entire her, her personality, her looks, how she moves. But, now that I already know how she thinks, she's kinda selfish indeed. Another day, anothrer day of missing home. Philip said that he'll do anything so that I can feel the same comf
AMELIA'S POVI stayed with Princess Sophie since she was crying over and over again. Now, she took me somewhere outside the Palace. Now, I just realized that the palace indeed is so wide, both from the inside and outside."Now, what should we do?" I asked since she brought me to an empty field. "We are going to my tree house" she smiled.Tree House.I suddenly remembered Gone. Is she eating well? does she still remember me? does she even miss me? does she still go to my shop? how's Charles?As I was about to tear up again, I contained my tears and smiled at Sophie."Are we there yet?" I asked."a bit more, Princess Amelia" she politely answered. "Okay, Princess Amelia will be patient" I answered and smiled at her.I looked around and it somewhat feels less suffocating here. I feel like I am more comfortable here.As we continue to walk, we reached a big tree house. Wow, it is huger than I thought it would be."This is yours?" I asked."yes, my brother built it for me" she answered w
AMELIA'S POV"why did you do that?" I asked Philip as we walk inside the Castle.We just had breakfast and Philip said he'll tour me around.Well, he might as well do so since I'm planning on leaving tonight. I just wanna leave today, this is not comfortable.Well, the pros is that I can experience being a Princess and have proper conversations with the royals. But then, my conscience just can't.I don't like lying. "love?" Philip suddenly called so I got back from my consciousness."yes, love?" I asked and smiled."you were dozing off. Is something wrong?" he asked. He seems pretty worried. "did I just did that?" I asked."yeah. Is something wrong, love? what's our problem?" he asked. That made me smile. He always is the one who have concern on me."no, there's nothing wrong. So, what did you just said again?" I asked, of course I should divert the topic. "I said that I love you" he whispered to me.I hit him."Philip, stop" I said with my authoritative voice."okay, my Prince
AMELIA'S POV"that's your reaction? really? I'm quite disappointed" I answered truthfully. I mean, there's no point in lying though. I'll say my thoughts anyways. It's only the two of us, I know he doesn't mind me being honest with him. He giggled. "come here" he said, but ended up being the one who actually came to me and gave me a hug.I sniffed and smelled his scent. "you smells nice" I said and let go of him. "glad you liked it" he responded. "I didn't said that I liked it" I answered. "but you just said that I smells nice, that means you like it" he insisted.I grinned."not because you smells nice, doesn't me I like it" I answered again.What's with this fuss by the way?"then, don't you like me smelling nice?" he asked."of course I do" I answered."that's my girl" he hugged me again.We're just talking nonsense when we heard a knock coming from the door."Princess Amelia? the breakfast is ready. Please proceed to the garden" a sweet voice said. I looked at Philip."sho
AMELIA'S POVAfter having a little chitchat with Sophie, I put her to sleep since it's midnight and she needs to sleep more. In my shock, Philip entered the room right after Sophie slept. "what are you doing here?" I asked in a whisper, scared that I might woke Sophie up. "here to visit you, I waited for you outside but you're not coming back" he whispered as well. I pulled him out of the room so that we won't wake Sophie up. Yeah, I remembered her name."you have been waiting?" I asked. He scratched the back of his head."yeah" he smiled."for how long?" I asked. "how long have you been inside? that's how long I has been waiting. I saw you left your room and saw how scared you were when you heard Sophie's cry" he laughed. I immediately hit him."then you know that I was lost. Why didn't you approached me?" I asked with a big question mark on my face.He gave me a genuine smile. The smile he always give me everytime he stares at me."I just wanna watch my Princess" he smiled ,"y
[THIS IS A FLASHBACK FROM WHEN AMELIA WAS STILL IN THE PALACE]AMELIA'S POV"what?" I asked the Queen ,"you lied to the King? what if he'll find out?" "he'll never find out so please enjoy your stay here, okay? Princess Dahlia is not coming if you're here. Knowing Philip, I know that he's just being patient with her" she answered.She tapped my shoulders and gave me a loving smile. After that, she left the room, leaving me on the terrace.I'm a Princess? I clearly am not.I entered the room and looked around it.How can I lie to the King? I don't wanna lie. I feel bad.I looked around the room once again and reality hits me."I don't deserve this, I'm a no Princess. How can I even enjoy these stuffs when all of it is just a lie?" I asked myself.Here I am again, talking to myself.I go outside the room again to watch the city. From here, I can see my shop. But, I can't seen it well as it's quite too far. I sighed. I need to get out of this. I don't want to suffer the consequences o
AMELIA'S POVI looked at Charles and Lorna who are washing the dishes right now. They're having so much fun and I can't help but to smile.I wish them genuine happiness.I wish for their relationship to work out and not hurt each other. While sitting here and watching a movie, I saw a familiar guy outside. My body is still sore, it aches so much, but good thing, it wasn't like before. Before, it hurts so much to the point that I can't even walk properly. The familiar guy is Phil.I know him so well to the point that I know even his shadow.I stood up slowly. I didn't made any noise so that they wouldn't notice that I left. I opened the door and Phil immediately turn around and looked at me. His eyes are so teary and right at the moment that he saw me, he gave me a one big hug.He literally squeezed me which made me groan in pain.My scars are not yet fully healed and they still hurts from time to time especially when they're being touched.When I groaned, he was so shock to the
LORNA'S POVCharles went off to go get a glass of water. I looked at Amelia and her face looks tired. She looks tired. She was so excited to go to the palace but ended up looking like this.What exactly happened? I'm going to beat that Prince when I saw him, I really will. I held her hand and was shocked to see a scar. It's not a big scar but it's still a scar. I accidentally held it which made Amelia groan. Does it hurt? I gently placed her hand to my hand and caressed it again. But in my shock, she slowly opened her eyes.Oh no, did I woke her up?Does the scar that painful for her to wake up just because I accidentally held it?I just remained silent and watched her. Her eyes roamed around the room and smiled afterwards.What is she thinking?Her eyes turned to mine and smiled wider."Lorna" she mouthed. Her voice is weak, I almost cannot hear it. "Amelia" I answered and hugged her. She groaned when I did that that's why I immediately clasp out from the hug and looked at h
