Chapter 5. The truth
It was a normal day, as usual the cherry blossoms made Tokyo very beautiful. Two arrogant princess were walking around the castle. One had pink hair tied in a piggy tails. She always carried her fan and everytime she talked she would cover half of her face with the ugly pink fan. The other one had long, purple hair. This one never left her umbrella, even if they were actually inside the castle. They were walking until, bashful Retasu walked toward them .
The pink haired girl said in disgust "Eww. Look at that girl, Zakuro."
Zakuro mumbled "Yeah, Ichigo. She's disgusting" .
Then they started whispering, and just as Retasu was passing, Zakuro stretched out her leg. Retasu tripped over it but she kept quiet, feeling abused. But she was already used to it. She smiled at them.
"Look at that Ichigo. She's smiling." Zakuro said.
"Yeah, doesn't she know us?" Ichigo said, not knowing that Retasu was the King's daughter.
Ichigo kicked Retasu.
But Retasu continued to smile.
"Stop Smiling, freak!" Zakuro shouted as she began to kick her as well.
"Don't you know who she is?" a voice said from behind Retasu.
At that point, Retasu remembered the figure she kissed last night and blushed,
The girls in front of her said, with big red heart eyes "What do you mean, Ryou?"
'Ryou?' Retasu thought. 'Could it be...him?' she blushed.
"That girl, you're kicking is the king's daughter." he grinned.
The girls ran away before they could get in any more trouble. (Ryou later told the king to give them punishment for 5 days of beings maids)
Ryou, turned around and bent over, kneeling, looking at Retasu. His face was so close to hers.
Retasu blushed thinking about the boy last night.
"Are you okay, Princess?"
" ..."
Ryou held his hand and put the other around her waist and helped her up.
'The same...like last night...'
Retasu blushed even more.
She looked down, all red, and said "T-Thanks"
He blushed. He held her face with both hands and positioned it to look into his eyes "Be careful, Princess."
Retasu blushed even harder, thinking 'He's so cute, from this distance'
He kissed her bruise in the forehead, made by Zakuro's kick.
'Is this a coincidence'
He let go and began to walk away
'Is it him? Is he Ryou? My fiancee's best friend? Is it him? The first person I have ever fell in love with? Was he the person I shared my first kiss with?'
Questions kept running in her mind when she finally said it
"Figure? Is it really you?"
