Chapter III: Weller's Secrets and Obsessions
After getting a second round of snacks and drinks, Wolfram met Weller in the hallway.
"W-Weller-kyo! How come you're walking around? Aren't you supposed to be training with Yuuri?" Wolfram asked, shocked.
"Oh, we're done for the day… He was just so exhausted that we had to stop and get some rest. Why do you look so shocked? I mean, this is our daily routine after all…"
"Ummm… N-nothing… Why don't you go rest in the gardens, Weller-kyo? I'll bring you some snacks if you want… Okay? Okay? Let's go!!!" Wolfram said while pushing Weller out of the castle and into the gardens.
"W-wolfram! I-I need to go and write…"
"No, no… Your hands are tired! You're not supposed to work… Now stay put and let me bring you some snacks. Don't move a muscle or I'll kill you!"
"Ummm… Y-yes…."
While inside the castle, Wolfram was preparing some snacks for Weller when Yozak suddenly passed by.
"Oh, Wolfram… Have you seen His Excellency Gwendal? I have to…"
"Ah, Yozak, what excellent timing! I want you to do something for me…"
"Ummm…. What is it?"
"Can you bring these snacks to Weller-kyo and stay with him? Don't let him go inside or I'll fire you from the army! I need you to distract him and keep him outside. Now go! GO!" Wolfram said while pushing a shocked Yozak out in to the gardens while carrying some snacks.
"Weller-kyo, you wouldn't mind if Yozak stays with you for a while, won't yah? Now I'll leave the two of you here…" Wolfram announced to Weller once he reached them. Wolfram then left two red faced persons while he proceeded to his room and read the last three entries that he can read in the limited time.
April 2, 1094, 5 p.m.
Dear Diary,
I heard from someone that the diary you keep can be more precious if you name it after someone precious, so I'm giving you a new name: Yozak.
Anyway, I read the magazine I bought this morning at town which was entitled 'How to Snatch Your Dream Guy'. It actually gave me some helpful tips, and I plan to carry them out today or tomorrow… Anyway, these are the tips I got:
-Act cool around him
-Always be yourself. Never try to be someone you're not.
-Never try to make him like you.
-Go up to him cheerfully.
-Joke around, laugh… Show him you're a fun person to be with.
Well, I think those are the most important tips… Hope I can snag Yozak's attention…
Cheers,
Conrad
Wolfram wanted to laugh out loud again but he knows that he must control himself because there's not much time left. After laughing for only two minutes (only?), he quickly turned the page and proceeded to read another entry.
Meanwhile, Yozak and Conrad were out in the gardens. They were 'forced' to spend this time with each other because Wolfram commanded Yozak to stay with him. Awkward silence was between them that seemed to go on for ages when somebody decided to speak up.
"Ummm… Hey. You want some beer?" Conrad offered. Yozak blushed.
"Ummm… Yeah, thanks." After that, awkward silence again.
"Ummm… commander, have you seen His Excellency Gwendal? I really need to report to him the details of our reconnoitering around town…"
"No… Sorry."
"Yozak?"
"Y-yes?
"I want to tell you something…"
"Yes?"
"I… I… I… I lo---"
Just when Conrad was about to say it, Gwendal suddenly appeared out of nowhere and ruined the mood. "Yozak… Didn't I tell you to report to me? Come to my office right now."
"Y-yes…" Turning to Conrad he said, "We can talk later, commander… I really want to tell you something too."
After that, Conrad went to his room and planned to write about it in the diary.
Wolfram was reading the next entry. It was dated April 7.
April 7, 1094, 4 p.m.
Dear Yozak,
It worked! The tips worked! I feel that Yozak and I have been closer to each other more than ever… But still, I don't have the courage to tell him! I need to cool down first though, and prepare, because there is always a tendency that he might not like me back…
An interesting thing happened this morning. When I was passing down the hallways, I met Günter. He was carrying a basket of purple apples. I guess he's going to Gwendal's office. Sigh… Everybody's in love these days… The twist to this story? Anissina came and was about to drag Gwendal to her experiment room when Günter brought out his sword and shooed lady Anissina away when he said, "Stop touching my beloved or I'll… cut off your hair!" With that, Anissina backed away smiling and reporting to the maids about the pairings on their bet list… Sigh… I can't believe they used to have me in there…
Cheers,
Conrad
Wolfram was laughing and was about to read the next page when he heard footsteps outside his door. When he looked outside the gardens, he saw that Yozak and Weller weren't there! Acting fast, he quickly opened his door and was about to sprint when he saw Weller.
"Weller-kyo! Come and sit with me in the gardens!" Wolfram invited him.
"But I just came there… I really plan to write in my diary right now…"
No! Let me read another entry first then I'll give it back! Wolfram thought. I wanna find out more!
"Okay, uhhh… Wait here!" With that, he sprinted to Gwendal's office and banged the door open. There he found Yozak discussing something with his brother.
"Aniwe! I need Yozak for a while… See yah!" Without even waiting for Gwendal's consent, he dragged Yozak out of the door and into the hallway where Conrad was waiting.
"Here, Yozak! My brother is extremely bored, so why don'tcha go somewhere and have some fun together? Don't worry, I won't tell Aniwe!" Without even letting the couple speak, he pushed them out of the castle door and made them go to town.
"Now that they've been rid off, I'll go read another entry and return it."
April 8, 1094, 1 p.m.
Dear Yozak,
I got away from my training early!!! Now I've got time…
Anyway, this morning Yozak was in training. I actually had free time that moment so I came to watch him. After he had trained, he came to me and gave me something, and upon closer inspection it was a small box of chocolates! He said that he got it from Big Shimaron while he was spying there and decided to get me something… I was actually so surprised that I just mumbled thanks, gave him a small hug and ran off for training… Honestly, that hug was precious! XD
I also saw Yuuri training with Wolfram this morning. They were doing push ups when Lady Flurin actually decided to pay us a surprise visit. Yuuri was actually so surprised that he fell with his face flat on the ground! Wolfram was actually scolding him and saying 'Ha, serves you right, cheater' while Flurin was just laughing…. Haha, that moment was funny!
I also saw Gwendal fast asleep in his office this morning. Apparently, he fell asleep from signing Yuuri's papers… Again. So, Günter actually kissed him awake and offered to call Yuuri for him, to which he agreed. Honestly, that couple is just so sweet with each other. I wish Yozak would do that to me too…
-siiiiiiigh-
Cheers,
Conrad
When Wolfram finished reading that entry, he tiptoed to Weller's room and placed the diary back where it belongs. After mumbling 'I'll read it again tomorrow' to himself, he quickly ran out of the room. Minutes later, Greta passed by.
"Oh, hey Wolfram! Do you wanna play with Yuuri and me? We were actually looking for yah…"
"Okay."
While in town, Yozak and Weller were walking around when Conrad saw the restaurant where he and his mother used to eat when he was still a child.
"Hey, Yozak… You wanna eat dinner over there?"
"Ummm… Yes, sure."
After getting into the restaurant and ordering their meals, Conrad spoke up.
"Ummm, Yozak, about the thing I wanted to tell you…"
"Yes, please go on."
"Well, I just want you to know that I… I… I… I lo---"
Suddenly, Lasagna walked into the restaurant and announced to them, "Your Excellency Conrart, His Majesty Yuuri and His Excellency Wolfram needs you right now… Oh, and they said to bring you along too, Yozak-san…"
"Right now?"
"Yes, they said they want to teach you something."
"Yeah, we'll be right there."
Sigh. When will Conrad ever say his feelings?
