Duke's Daughter Margarita Frost Reporting for Duty

How sweet is my love 3

Drinking.
Chug chug..
Bam.
Just a few days ago...He is the crowned prince.
His life was so bright.
He is holding the world in his palm.

He is happy and in love.

Everything is so great and so naturally falling in to places.

Until Dwayn came back.

"Traitor." He said as he stands up and leave the private room.
In the stairs he stumbles and almost fell but a man help him up.

(Diego's P.O.V)

"Die...go?"

I look up and saw that light purple eyes.

"........"

Margarita Frost.
The fiancee I turn my back from.
She is irritating and she always trying to control me.
And I heard she done so many evil things behind my back.
She is so bad.
She can't compare to my lovely....Emely.....

Her attendant sits me on the chair in first floor.
This is a bar that is not frequent by the noble people.
Even if you fell down here nobody will pay attention to you.

Why is a woman in her beautiful dress come here?

"What are you doing her--"

Sobs**
Tears are falling her eyes.
She looks so fragile and thin. A small existence you need to protect.
Since when...did she become so small?

"What happen to you? Prince...Diego? Why is this happening to you?"

I snorts.
"Don't cry. This is unsighty. Did you come to specifically talk to me? That is unnecessary. I am not the crown prince anymore."
I said as I clenched my fist.

A hand touch my fist.
A gentle but cold hands.

"Prince....I am sorry."
Her tears are like pearls. Small and clear but very beautiful in her pale face.

I take my hand back.
"Leave me alone. You are not my fiancee anymore. Don't ruin your self."

Margarita smiles as she wipes her tears.
"I ruined myself for you once. I want to stay to be your strength now."

I feel my heart flinching.
I look at her slender shoulder.
That beautiful face.

"What...are you saying?"

"As a friend."

I chuckle.
"As a friend.... We are never friends."

"But...I can't just let Emely ruin you!"

I glare at her.
"Do not talk badly of Lady Emely!"

Margarita glares back at me.
"Since you get acquainted with her..Your name been drag so many times because of her! And you still can't see it?"

"It is you who drag my name."

"My prince," Margarita once again tearing up.
"Even if I made mistake I try covering it up...Didn't you know that my father is helping me do that? But it still spreads like wild fire. Your little flame wants power so badly that she didn't even think of your status!" Cry* cry* "Why can't you see it?"
X gave Margarita a white hanky.
Margarita sniffs.

"I...Lady Emely and I...We are in love. You can't ruin it."

"You may be in love with her but she is not to you. Heh~
How about you asks her to be with you now. I guess she will refuse and makes all kind of excuses."

"Shut up and leave me alone."

"I will send you home."

Diego looks away.
"Just leave me."

Margarita sadly nods.
"I see. Your heart really am close if its me. When did you start hating me Prince Diego? We are so in love before."

"I don't remember loving you."
Diego sneers.

Margarita smiles and put a small case.
"Then I will return this....Good bye. My prince."
Margarita stands up and walks away.

Diego look at the small box.
He trembles seeing that dried flower necklace.

When he tried lifting it up the flowers fell down disintegrated in the air.

Their love...that is once broken.

Margarita taps the old man drinking in the counter who is as noisy as the other.

"Yer lad? What ye want for this ol man?"

Margarita's cold face is back.
Her eyes are a bit puffy from all the force crying.

"Let's go Dwayn."

"......yer mistake me from someone else lad."

"Shut up."

X looks at the old man who is swaying here and there.
He whisper.
"Are you really Prince Dwayn?"

Dwayn clicked his tongue.
"How did she know?"
