Dwayn sighs and looks at the time.

"I already talk to father about the proposal. I am bored so I will be playing outside."

Three looks at him.
"Where are we going?"

"No~~ I won't be taking you~" Dwayn smiles.

"Are you visiting Lady Margarita? I will go."

Dwayn sighs.
"So you can see X? No. Duke will be there so I don't want you to enter love triangle with the Duke."

I frown.

"I can separate my own personal life!" Three said then he scowls.
"What do you mean love triangle? Is he cheating on me?"

"Scary." Dwayn chuckles.
"I am just kidding. Margarita told me that X also work as the Duke's secretary so it can't be help. And sides you need a break."
Dwayn paused and stares at him.
"You look really stress lately."

I frown and instruct the escort guard what they have to do.
I was alone.

Lately...I am not really feeling that confident that I can sleep better.

Lots of things are progressing faster than we expected and the King, Prince Diego, Lady Margarita's quirks and....I find a lover.

He is more weighing in my mind lately and as  Dwayn's support I try my best not to think of him.

I should relax.
I wore a simple daily clothes only bringing my sword.
I plan to spend the day in the town and just won't care about anything else.

"Mel, stop. I am already tired."

"Exer, you are getting older?" The girl giggles.

"You, everytime you visit me you make me carry all your stuff."
The guy complain but he is looking at the younger lady with the eyes adoring her.

I drop the cup that the waitress gave me.
The parfait scattered in the floor as the glass broken in pieces as if representing my brain.

"Wha---"

"Its my fault. Here. I pay for the glass and your medical assistance. Keep the change." I run to where I saw MY BOYFRIEND and that little shi---woman went.

My heart is trembling..

'Maybe she is a relative.'

"Exe, look at that wedding ring. Should we buy it?"

"Ehhh?? Wedding ring? I dunno, It's a waste to buy one?"
X looks unfavorable.

"Cause you have a lover you will not want me anymore?"

"My side mistress is pouting? Just buy any ring. I will buy it for you."

"You are the best!"
The girl wraps her arms round X and kisses his lips with a smack.
"Happy?"

"Happy."

Clang**
Clang**

He heard enough

Three walks away.

Its not like he loves him that much.

He just felt pity over him.

Thats all.

That....is all.....

X looks back and saw a familiar back.

"Eh?"

"What's wrong baby?"
Melissa smiles.

"I think I saw my boyfriend."

"Oh~~ Youre in a big trouble~~"
Melissa smiles.

"Umm...Will he send me a letter breaking up with me?"

"Tell him The truth. I will meet him if you want."

X rubs her head.
"Ill tell him."

"Are you sure?"

"Hnm.."

X is pacing nervously.
He is waiting for a final verdict.
He is still not really sure if it is Three after all.

But there is 70% in his mind.

"So? You want to go and see him? This late at night?" The Duke yawns

He was awaken by X.

X bows.
"Im sorry for my selfishness."

Duke shakes his head.
"Just go and bring some knights. Send a letter to Prince Dwayn's palace too."

"Thank you." X is ashamed.
He is panicking and didn't get a single letter so he can't be so sure.

Dwayn looks at Three.

"So, is he cheating you?"

Three shakes his head.
"I investigate Exermidel Jufreaz before I agree to have a relationship.
I know he is a fallen noble and only alive thanks to the Duke. He does have sisters and brothers but they were all killed in the pursuit. But that woman has the same facial expression like X and the way they smile. She is his sister." He said calmly.

Dwayn yawns.
"So? Why are you waking me up?"

"I want to go to the Duke's territory."

"Its late." Dwayn smiles.

"But I feel like I can't fall asleep. I leave not talking to him because I for a second was clouded by jealously! I want to clear it up immediately because that is what lovers do."

Dwayn smiles.

"Sure, sure. You two are really in love."

"So...can I go?"

"Just wait for the knight and shinning armor." Dwayn gaves him an urgent letter from the Frost house saying X will come to have an audience.

Three stands up.
"Sleep well."

Dwayn smirks.
"Sure,sure."
