Alexander was confused. The Neil he knew played drinking games?
It was unbelievable!
Aurelia quickly invited him into the store and served him the cold rose-flavored jelly she had made.
He was nice. They chatted for a little bit and were surprised to find that they had many things to talk about. He said he had been to Melorion, that he had accompanied his uncle many years ago.
She chuckled. "Did you visit with the king?"
"Hmm… I don't think so." He thought about it and shook his head. In reality, he did not have many memories about that matter. Nobody told him why exactly the king had visited Melorian.
He only remembered that his uncle had been walking back and forth on a street, seemingly waiting for someone.
Alexander sighed softly and rubbed his throbbing temples.
"What's wrong, Your Highness? I see that you don't look very good." Aurelia looked at him with care.
He smiled. "I'm okay."
"Do you have something… on your mind?"
Aurelia was accurate with her observation.
Alexander could only admit that. Indeed, he had gone out tonight with a lot on his mind. However, he did not say what exactly he was thinking about.
She supported her tiny face with confusion filling her doe eyes.
"Royals have worries too?"
"Royals are humans, too," he said politely. "We have more worries than the commoners. It's just that we look superior to the people, but nobody knows the troubles that we go through behind."
Aurelia looked around and smirked. "Is someone fighting for the throne with you?"
"Well…" He shrugged. "I guess so."
