27. Urgent
When Adira finished fixing her bed, she looked at Prince Dylan again.
“Aren’t you planning to go out? Maybe King Stephen is looking for you because you have a visitor today. ” Dylan just leaned against the wall. “And then maybe later we will both be suspected here. Remember, this is a woman’s room, and you are a prince.”
Just a few moments later, someone called outside, General Agustin. “Young lady, have you seen the prince?” he shouted from outside the room’s door.
She quickly approached the door and looked at Dylan as if he didn’t care that General Agustin saw him there.
She opened the door and just peered through the slightly open door. “Didn’t you see him, general?” she asked.
“I’ve been looking for him for a while now, but he’s nowhere to be found in any part of the palace. King Cyrus is leaving, and King Stephen would like him to say goodbye.”
Her eyes are panicked, and her face doesn’t seem to know where Dylan is. “I will also help to find the prince, and when I see him, I will immediately say, go to where they are, King Stephen.”
“It’s better then. I’ll leave you here. I’m sorry for the inconvenience. ” He bowed slightly before leaving for good.
When she closed the door, she let out all the air she had been holding in while she was talking to General Agustin. She looked at the prince, and he was just looking at her.
“Come out, General Agustin, and say that they are leaving, King Cyrus and Prince Damon.”
“Can I just not leave your room?”
She approached him and pulled his hand. “It’s not possible, so hurry out, and General Agustin might even know you’re here.” When she pulls on his hand, he makes it heavier so that we are only in one place and not moving forward.
She looked at him badly. “Move!”
In the end, he just pulled over, and when she opened the door, General Agustin was standing there facing them now.
He tilted his head as if they were caught. “That’s why it’s so hard to find the prince; he’s just here. Why didn’t you tell me right away, young lady?” There was a small smile on the general’s lips.
“Because-” she did not know what to say. So she just slightly pushed Dylan out. “Here he is, general. You can take him to King Stephen. ”
General Agustin just shook his head. “As for you, prince, why didn’t you even try to peek at the young lady’s door so I would know you were here? I went to almost every place you could go in the palace, but you just here.”
Dylan looked away. “I’m sorry, general. I just don’t want to get involved in their conversation with my father, especially Prince Damon.”
General Agustin sighed. “But that can’t be Prince Dylan. You still need to get along, especially since you’ll be replacing your father one day, so right now you need to get along even if you’re not comfortable with the person you’re in front of. ”
Dylan looked at her, but she just raised an eyebrow at him. “If that’s what needs to happen, I’ll go there with you, general.”
They walked to where they were with King Stephen and left Adira at the door of her room.
“It’s hard to know what he has to do. He must learn to get close to others, even if he’s not comfortable with them. ” She just shook her head and went back into the room.
Meanwhile, King Stephen is already outside the palace, and King Cyrus and his son, Prince Damon, are ready to leave.
“Dear King, Prince Dylan is here,” the general said.
King Stephen, King Cyrus, and Prince Damon turned around. “Dylan, where did you go? General Agustin is looking for you for an hour.” Prince Dylan did not speak. “It doesn’t matter; come, and they are leaving, King Cyrus. Give your respects before they leave.”
Prince Dylan approached and bowed to King Cyrus. “Be careful on your way into your palace, King Cyrus.”
King Cyrus smiled. “Thanks! But we didn’t have time to talk, so next time we’ll do that.”
Prince Dylan nodded several times and didn’t even glance at Prince Damon.
“See you again, my friend,” King Stephen said with a smile before they entered the car with King Cyrus.
After Prince Damon and King Cyrus left, King Stephen coughed a few times, which worried Prince Dylan. “Father, are you sick?” while rubbing his father’s back.
“I’m fine. I think King Cyrus and I drank too much wine.” Prince Dylan just sighed and waited for his father to enter the palace.
Meanwhile, while Adira was lying down, someone suddenly called her phone.
“Hello! Who is this?” she asked on the other line.
“Long time, no talk, Adira.”
She frowned and got up. “Who are you?”
“You’re so quick to forget me. You should also know the people for whom you didn’t do what they asked for before.”
“Why don’t you tell me who you are? You’re talking so much!”
The person on the other line laughed. “Before that, I have something for you.”
She was confused when the voice on the other line suddenly disappeared and all she could hear was breathing, but she stood up because she knew whose voice called her name. Again he spoke softly as if just whispering. “Adira.”
“Simon, is that you? Simon!” she shouted.
“Maybe you want to show up before he loses his life here,” replied the person he had spoken to earlier.
Her hand was shaking, and her teeth were grinding. “When I know who you are, get ready for me!”
“You already know me, Adira. It’s been a long time, and you know, I don’t want to get an answer that is no. So wherever you are now, hurry because I’ll only give you time until tomorrow night. ” Then the mysterious caller ends the phone call.
“Hello, Hello!” she shouts again and again. She put down the phone and hurried out, but she saw Dylan supporting King Stephen while walking inside the palace, so she didn’t try to get any closer. She just looked for General Agustin, who was outside the palace.
General Agustin was about to enter the palace when Adira blocked the way.
“I have to go back to my country,” she said immediately.
General Agustin frowned. “What is the reason, you seem to be in a hurry to return to your country?”
“If you can use the king’s power so that I can go home to my country right away. I just need to do something for someone important to me,” her voice was full of pleading, and her tears started to fall.
General Agustin just looked at her. “Give me until tomorrow for the details of your flight, but the king would not have known about it. Is that clear, Adira?”
She nodded. “They are very lucky for you, Adira because you are ready to do everything for them.” General Agustin patted her shoulder. “I wish I had someone like you, even though I’m content to have no family.” Then the general walked into the palace.
The next day, General Agustin managed the flight to return Adira to her country using the king’s private plane. General Agustin did not let the king know what he did because he was resting from the severe flu.
After getting off the plane and passing through the airport, Adira quickly took a taxi to Simon’s house. When she got off, she immediately ran to Simon’s house, but she didn’t see Simon.
She frowned when she saw a shadow outside Simon’s house, but when she went out, there was none. She slowly walked around the outside of the house, and when she saw a person with his body wrapped, she immediately followed him. And when she was close to him, she reached for the hood of his jacket, but she was shocked to see his face. “Prince Dylan?”
Prince Dylan closed his eyes and slowly faced Adira, who managed to raise his hand and wave shyly.
“How did you get here?”
“U-using the plane,” he answered hesitantly.
She got serious and gave him a bad look. “Don’t say that you are with me all the time on your father’s private plane.”
Dylan grimaced and looked away, but she pulled the hood of his jacket again. “Tell me how you knew I was leaving the palace, and I will go home to my country.”
Dylan tried to release her grip on the hood of his jacket, but she tightened it even more. “General Agustin said,” he answered.
She let go of his jacket. “What did General Agustin just tell you?”
“None, I heard both of you outside, so I asked him.”
She rolled her eyes at him. “Then why are you here?”
“What-” He couldn’t finish what he was saying.
“What!” she shouted.
“I talked to General Agustin and asked if I could come with you.”
“What did the general say?”
“At first he didn’t want it because I might be harmed and my father would find out that I was not in the palace and our country.”
“That’s why you secretly came with your family’s private plane!”
Dylan looked at her pleadingly. “I just want to know what your life is like here, and then we will only stay here for a few days, right? You’re still going back to the palace. ”
She closed her eyes and put both of her hands on her waist. “Are you afraid I won’t come back?”
“Not at all.” But his eyes avoided hers. She narrowed her eyes again and was suspicious of his answer.
“I’m going back to the palace. I just have to do something here, and then I’m going to let you know if I’m going back to my country.”
Dylan smiled at her. “I’m sorry if I came secretly.”
She frowned. “Was I with you in the taxi earlier?”
“Yes.”
“Why didn’t I notice you?”
“It looks like your mind is flying to other places. Your payment to the taxi driver is too much, so I have already paid too. I was just at the front of the taxi, next to the driver.”
She turned to him. “Instead of Simon being the only problem now, I have two.” She just shook her head and entered Simon’s house again.
