Chapter 2: Chapter 2
The next day, The prince ran away from the mansion once again.
"That mischievous kid!" Sebastian Angered. "The next time I see him is the time he will regret of his action!" He reported to the king.
"Just let him go." Said the king.
"Your highness, you're too soft on him. One day he will ignore all of his education and just run wild." Sebastian stated his worry. "He needs those educations to lead this kingdom."
"Then I have to state my order." The king inhaled deeply. "I order you to let him free for this week. No education, No etiquette lesson, just let him free for the week." The king said with a serious look.
"I'm sorry sir, may I ask what makes you to give this order?" Sebastian questioned the order.
The king looked lost in thoughts. He then smiled a little. "I've never see him looks so happy before."
Sebastian stared at the king silently. How long since he servedthe king for the first time. That noble heart of his was the only thing that keeps making Sebastian couldn't retired from work.
"I don't know what he did or found yesterday, but if that makes him happy than nothing else is more important." Added the king.

Lewis arrived at the field. He felt happy when he found Alia was sitting while staring at the sky.
"Alia!" He shouted to her to attract her attention. She smiled to her ears when she saw Lewis.
"You're late." Said Alia.
"You're the one who's early."
"Maybe I am."
Lewis walked to her and sit next to her while also looking at the sky silently.
"By the way," Lewis was the first one to break the silence. "You said yesterday that you came here to escape your everyday life."
"Indeed I said that." She confirmed the statement by Lewis.
"What is your work?"
Alia looks troubled to answer the question.
"You don't have to answer it if you don't want to." Out of feeling guilty, Lewis tried to make her feel better. I must have been insensitive to ask the question. He thought.
"No, it's nothing grand or noble work. I'm actually a poor farmer's daughter. Everyday I have to help my parents with their work. Feeding the cattle, plowing, just normal work." She replied.
"You must really hate that work, aren't you? For you to come here even before I arrived."
"No, not at all." She denied what Lewis said. "It's not bad at all. I have so much fun doing what I always do."
"Then what's the problem?"
"It's just my parents. They... They kind of despise me."
"What makes you said that?" He tries to ask everything to understand her problem.
"I'm an adopted child. They're not my real parents. They said to me that they made a mistake by taking me in."
"What a horrible parents they are!"
"Even so, I'm grateful of the food and shelter they gave me."
"That..." Lewis was speechless. He never thought that the woman's problem was really heavy.
From the sitting position, Lewis rose to stand up while doing a light stretching.
"Okay." He said. "Let's meet your parents and you have to tell the your feelings."
"What?!" Alia shocked to hear that out of nowhere.
"The can't hate you. Adopted or not, you're their daughter."
Alia looked unsure of the decision. But in the end, she gave in and agreed.
There's no parents in this world that doesn't love their daughter. At least, that's what Lewis thought.
