"You are just thinking I'm a spoilt kid anyway!" He said facing her.
"I never said that!" She says as she got up. Nearing him "I think you need to stop worry about what others think about you." Moving her hands "And who your father was! And fund out who you are and who you want to be!" As she stopped near him.
"You make it look so simple by saying so!" He says as he looked at the fire.
"Why can't it be?" She starts as he lifts his and sees her "You are smart, nice, personable"
"Except when I steal your cab!" He says with a smile and she smile in return "It was actually quite funny!" He says and chuckles while she stands there, shaking her head and smiling a little smile.
After few seconds the laughter died and seriousness replaced it.
"I want to show you something!" The Prince says to the lady "Come!" And she follows him to the table in the center of the room where books or notes, mostly diary kind of things were arranged on it.
"I found something interesting in my father's journal the other day!" He says as got out a red journal out and started to turn pages.
"What's it?"
"A poem!"
"It was dated just before he left all of us!" He said without any emotions and stopped at one page "He has written this for my Mother!" And he added facing her "And I assumed he was waiting to give it to her along with the Christmas tree ornament he has prepared for her.
"Has she seen it?"
"Not yet!" With a little smile of happiness "I was going to gift her on Christmas!" And the tutor also smiled.
As both started to see the diary, the date marked on that page popped out to be December 20th and the text was written as of a mystery that he started to read
<< Frost a sparkle in the fields
Twixt the frozen minarets.
Winter's harvest, meager yields,
Heavy burdens, the year's debts.
But from a seed an acorn's gift,
Henceforth the truth will flood.
Darkness such a secret bears,
And a love far greater than blood. >>
Once he finished reading, he turned to her side and added "It's some sort of riddle!"
"Its mysterious!" she says.
"Yes he confirms as he sees her in the dim light of the room as her eyes were on that page of words.
Lifting her eyes from there and meeting his eyes, she adds "And it's beautiful!"
"Yes!" he says as he gazed at her beautiful eyes and both get lost in each other's eyes as they got pulled in some other world and started to near each other with whatever motif they got until horse whinnies outside the cottage and both moves their head away in awkwardness.
"I would better go and check on them!" the Prince said and went away from there as she hit the back of her head and shook her head to get out of the scene which was going to happen seconds back.
And curiosity took her mind once again as she started to go through the diaries until the moment one fell down.
Getting on her knees, she gets it up and lifts her head to stop in her track as she sees a handle kind of thing under the table which caught her attention.
