The Emperor Is Searching

Young stalker

A very young Kleila drag her basket as she picks fallen peach. She's supposed to be done with whatever she's doing by five everyday and return to her quarters ..where Hyuna, her home teacher will be waiting for her.

Kleila is a good child who always follow the rules but when her young eyes saw a very fascinating figure passing by, she forgot everything she had to do and followed him.

To her, she just can't let this magnificent being off her sight ..it just as if she was charmed.

This isn't her first time seeing the Prince, Empress mother had introduced her to him after the gathering and she'd wondered the same thing.

"How is he so handsome?"

Since that day she never got to see him this close again, it was as if he varnished and she always goes to that corridor the Empress mother introduced her to him.

But he never passed by.

Kleila would stand at the side of the well peeping to see who ever is passing by and praying that the next one to pass will be the Prince.

She knows who he is, aside from the Empress mother introduction, she knows ..the young girl did some investigation.

She asked the only person that talks to her, her teacher.

Hyuna had warned her never to go there again, saying that's it's wrong and stupid of her to do so.

"Why do you go there all the time?" Hyuna asked curiously.

"He's so handsome." She always reply with that lost look on her face and Hyuna would look at her for a while trying to figure out what's going on in that small mind of hers but after some time, she'd discard the topic as she couldn't figure out anything.

Kleila never understood. She'd always asked what could be wrong with wanting to see a face and figure that captivates her.

Now eleven, Kleila isn't satisfied with just the view she see's through her window and so she got up and began to follow the Prince.

She suddenly gasp and then run, she hides herself behind the closest tree.

"Oh god! Did he saw me?" She asked frighteningly, her hand on her fast beating chest.

After standing behind the tree thinking of what to do for a long time, she somehow gathered some courage and decided to peep and see if the Prince saw her following him and has already gathered billions of his men that will punish her by flogging her to death.

Hyuna handwork.

"Oh." She sighs in relief when that isn't the case and then she signs in sadness when she couldn't find him nearby.

She began to walk around the palace looking for a person she wouldn't dare admit to someone and as she walked past the training arena moodily, she saw him fighting.

Immediately she hid herself beside the back entrance door, from there she watches him in fascination.

The way his body moves.

"How is he this unique?" She asked out loud and when she realized what she did, she covered her mouth consciously and in fear.

She looked around and saw no one looking at her, she stood straight after asking her self 'god! you almost got caught, what is wrong with you Kleila?.' and then she turned back to look at the Prince.

"Oh my..." She gasp.

"Please god kill me now, kill me or open the floor and let it swallow me."

Kleila muttered panicky when she turned to her front and found the Prince coming in her direction.

She wanted to run but she couldn't, her body isn't hers at that moment. She just stood there staring at him and just as the Prince was passing so close to where she's standing, somehow manners that she didn't know where they came from but they did and she bowed ..that's if you count what she did as one.

The poor girl was trembling and to think Kleila thought she had seen all their is to be seen about the Prince facial expression.

She hadn't actually and the Prince proved it to her when he smiled.

He killed her with a smile ..that's if she saw correctly but Kleila could swear with her late father that she saw the Prince smile just before she completely passed her and this baffles her little brain.

After standing in the same place for an unknown period of time, she picked up her basket and begin to run to her room.

I'm so sorry Hyuna. "I didn't know when the time passed."

slap!

Kleila gasp in shock and at the same time grab her cheek.

Hyuna began to look at her furiously. "I told you to stay away, just look through your window. You're a child Kleila! He is your superior.

Your Emperor! and let me tell you what will happen to you if you don't listen to me and wipe that silly tears off your face ..huh' Hyuna sign. After a while she pulls a crying Kleila to her chest. " I hope what I'm thinking isn't what's happening ..I prayed too, but.. Hmm, i want the best for you Irra, the Empress Dowager will kill you if she finds out."
