Chapter 35: Girl Meets Boy

For what feels like some time, Lady is in a daze, a little too entranced. 

It's just that the boy looks so charming that she can't help but admire him. She used to think that princes would have crowns and ride on horses. But he proves her wrong. Sometimes, princes could just be holding some gold medal while looking all dejected instead of accomplished. It's a sight she'd neither seen nor imagined before.

And now, Lady appears to have been placed under a spell, not expecting such an encounter at all. 

'No, snap out of it! This is what you get for reading too many novels in the past! You should be thinking about why he seems sad!' she told herself, pulling her senses back to reality.

The silence is drawing on for too long.
