Fake Princess
Clxxxix Chapter
"Are you okay, Julissa?" I said, I looked at Julissa who was sitting covered in mats and cloths around her body.
"What about yourself? The air here is a little hot, it's like my body's boiled twice" Julissa said, staring back at me.
"I feel the same way as you do, but what? If I use Kou, I will miss the opportunity to experience the culture of another Kingdom," I said, taking my eyes off of Julissa, occasionally flickering my eyes trying to keep the sweat flowing from my forehead.
I thrust my head up and looked up at the ceiling, several breaths from me coming out. My entire body was covered in warm air, the sweat flowing out did not dissipate the warm feeling...
I turned my gaze back to Ajeng who walked closer with the previous women who also walked behind him. Some women were walking closer to us...
I turned my gaze to a woman who was lifting the cloths that were deliberately spread by them on the mat that surrounded my body, he put the cloths beside his feet while he stood up again he grabbed the mat that wrapped my body...
Turning my gaze at the two arms that were soaked in glistening sweat, I lifted both palms of my hands sweeping away the sweat that filled my neck. The tanned cloth I was wearing felt wet touching my body.
Getting up from my chair, I stared at the boiled water under the bamboo chair still slightly puffing the smoke. Re-emphasize my gaze forward as I move both my legs closer to Ajeng who has been standing in front of us...
"Today's ritual until here first, you two can go back to each other's rooms except for the bride-to-be. Tomorrow I wait for you to come back to practice dancing here," he said, looking at him who had also turned his eyes back on me.

I thrust my neck to the left and to the right as I joined my palms to gently pat my neck. My feet stepped down the hallway of the Palace once in a while I raised my head up...
"Are you guys done?"
"You waiting for me?" I said, my head staring at him who had been standing leaning against the wall of the hall.
"You guys for a long time, what are you guys really doing there?" he walked towards me, moving both hands behind his head.
"They stretched out all over me, and they also stretched out... Like a steam bath" I said as I walked up to him.
"It's just my feeling, or does your body smell a little changed?" he said, bringing his face closer to me.
"His scrub uses spices, and the steam used comes from the decoction of spices as well. So of course my body followed the fragrance of the spices," I said, along with my right arm, I approached my nose and kissed her.
"Is that so?"
"Why?" I said, returning to my eyes to look at him.
"There's nothing" he continued, turning his eyes away from me.
"You're so weird? Are you sure you're okay?" I said, I gave both of my legs a walk through it.
"Let's know, your father showered me with a thousand questions. It really made me shudder," he continued, along with the sound of footsteps following.
"Did you make trouble for her again?"
"Sachi..."
"What's wrong?" reply while still let my eyes look straight ahead.
"As your father said..."
"My dad? What did he say?" revealing my back, I looked at her who was also walking beside me.
"She just asked, what should I do in front of her... I even left Akash and Kabir to monitor the Kingdom" he said, keeping his eyes on him walking and leaning against the wall of the hall.
"Is there a problem?" I said, along with me, I sat down beside him.
"It's not a big deal, it's just... I thought, I'd have trouble controlling myself during a rebellion... You know how I hate them all" he said, leaning his head on my shoulder.
"You're afraid I'd hate you if you killed your father?"
"Zeki," I said, I leaned my head on his head.
"I don't want you to lose yourself, I might be disappointed... But I won't hate you, won't" I told him again.
"Did you remember? I want to be happy, can't I get it easily? I feel those words apply to me as well..."
"You can get it maybe if from the beginning you..."
"You fool, what do you think I'm doing now? Of course I was desperately fighting for happiness for both of us," he said cutting off my words that interrupted his earlier words.
"I told you no, I'll support you... I will always support you" I said, kissing her head.
"I know," he said, moving back he sat beside me.
I turned my gaze to the left palm that had touched my neck, again I gave my head a look at him who had also looked at me. He did it without saying a word to me...
"Sorry," he said slowly looking at me.
I looked at her face that was approaching me, pulled in front of her hand that touched my neck earlier. I turned my gaze to Zeki who had tilted his head closer and closer...
I felt his other hand move open the hair covering my neck, my body jerking slowly as his lips touched my neck... The stronger my grip on the clothes he was wearing as the breath he took there deepened...
The kiss stopped, the dampness in my neck still felt a little. I turned my slightly faded gaze to look at him, his fingers moving revealing a bit of my hair that covered my face...
"Hurry up seventeen-year-old Takaoka Sachi, don't make me wait too long" he said, as I felt his lips touch my forehead.
