Chapter 3
Days passed and became weeks. Still, the princess had no chance of meeting the prince again. Since that very day, Mimi's mind had been clouded by images of Yamato. Unaware, Mimi was slowly falling in love for the very first time...

"Princess!" a voice spranged from behind her. Mimi jumped a little at it's suddeness. "There you are! I've been searching everywhere for you!" It was her handmaid, Yuri, catching her breath as she spoke. "I'm sorry to worry you, Yuri. I just needed some time alone so I came to garden. Is there something you want to tell me?" Mimi replied. Yuri smiled at her and said, "You seem very flustered and moody nowadays and I must admit, I was indeed very worried for you. Tell me, princess, is there anything that's been bothering you? Perhaps you will feel better if you say it out."
The sun was setting in the evening sky, spilling it's crimson rays onto the blanket of orange, yellow and purple clouds. Princess Mimi sighed and sat on a bench. It was the exact bench that Prince Yamato and her had sat on that peaceful night. "Do not bottle up your worries in your heart. You must learn to let it all out," Yuri adviced.
"Yuri, what is the meaning of 'falling in love'?" Mimi asked. Yuri was quite taken aback by the question. "'Falling in love' or 'being in love' is a deep, tender, ineffable feeling of affection and solicitude toward a person. When you're in love, you would constantly think about him. You would do anything just to have him by your side. A woman in love, will cast aside any bad qualities of the man and recognise only his good ones. She is willing to sacrifice or even die for him. All in all, it is an intense desire and attraction towards a person," Yuri said, then continued, "Are you in love, princess?"
Mimi wasn't quite sure how she should answer Yuri's question. Yuri could tell that Princess Mimi was struggling to find an answer to her question inside. Being able to take care of the princess ever since she was young has allowed Yuri to guess her thoughts easily. "Judging from what you asked me, it must be the first time you feel such affections for someone. May I ask if that someone is... Prince Yamato?"
Princess Mimi jerked up almost immediately at the mention of her fiance. She turned and stared speechless at Yuri's grinning expression. "Was I correct, princess?" Yuri asked again. She needn't ask actually because she already knew that she was right all along. Since the day Mimi met the prince, Yuri can tell clearly how she seem more distracted than ever. "Yes, Yuri. I'm in love with Prince Yamato... but what should I do to make him love me back?" Mimi asked...
* * *
It was time for dinner. As usual, Princess Mimi sat at the dining table with the King and the Queen, having a peaceful and delightful meal. "Your father and I are going for a long-term business trip very soon. During this period of time, we think that it will be more fruitful if you were to settle down at King Ishida's castle till we return," said the Queen all of a sudden. "What! I mean, so soon? I don't really know them that well.." Mimi protested. "That is why this is a good chance to get to know them.. especially Prince Yamato. I mean, he is your fiance after all, right my dear?"
* * *
A/N: next up! Princess Mimi goes off to King Ishida's castle. but when King Ishida ain't around, Mimi learns more about Prince Yamato. however, it hurts her more than she'd expect it to turn out...
