"I and Rafael make special detoxifying medicine. It is made of some herbs and a special ingredient, the fruit of the Buloko Tree."
My eyes widened. I'm surprised to hear that the Buloko Tree has fruit. I was about to ask if I heard it wrong, but Princess Assy already spoke.
"Surprised? I, too, was surprised at first, but it's true.The Buloko Tree bears fruit every full moon, which only Elder Rafael knows. I've tried asking him about how he knew about it, but he kept silent."
"Saying that I'll write it if I want you to know it?" I asked.
"Definitely, that's his line if he doesn't want to let us know something yet."
"Since we first met him, he has already become very mysterious. However, I can't understand myself for trusting him wholeheartedly even if I don't know who he really is. We wondered where he came from, who his family was, and why did he know a lot of things, even if he was just a beggar when we found him."
"I felt the same way too. Maybe it's because he's already saved us a lot of times and taught us a lot of things. Besides, we have to respect him if he wants to hide something. It's not our business anymore as long as he won't do something wrong with anyone."
"You are right!" I replied, and the door to my room opened.
"Fely!" I said with a big smile.
"Sister," she said, with full joy in her face. She hastily walked towards me and hugged me.
"I missed you so much!" I said.
"I missed you too, sister. I'm very worried about you. Luckily, this perfect princess found a medicine to detoxify your body and free you from the dangerous poison."
"Haha!" Princess Assy chuckles. Fely really called her a perfect princess.
Well, except for me and the queen, no one knows that I and Assy often went to Rafael and attained our success in a lot of things because of Rafael. Or else, our father will surely get angry with us. He never wanted us to be close to Rafael; he just let him stay inside the gate of the palace because Rafael had saved our lives a couple of times. Also, he promised that he wouldn't throw Rafael away when I and Assy were still young, as long as he didn't know that we were often going to him and never mentioned Rafael's name in front of him."
Please get a seat for my little sister," I told the male servant who was standing not far from us.
"Thank you, sister. Come on, eat more! You have to eat all of this so that you will be strong again. Look at you, you're so thin now," princess Fely said.
Yes, she's a little bit stubborn when it comes to others, but when it comes to me, she's very kind and considerate."
I'm trying, but Princess Assy was right. My taste has changed a little, and I can't see any tasty food here. My taste is looking for something. I can't understand what it is.
"You're just not feeling well, and also it's the effect of the sweet medicine we let you intake. Your taste will be back to normal soon. Just try to eat as much as you can, even if it's tasteless," princess Assy said.
"Thank you," Princess Fely said when the servant came and gave her a seat.
"Come on, eat with me. It's so sad if I eat alone!" I said, and the two princesses just lifted their shoulders.
We ate together and talked about a lot of things.
"So, what's your plan after you recover?" Princess Fely asked.
"I'll immediately go back to Garreto and do my duties. I can't stay here any longer. My mind was still in Garreto."
"But sis, you're going to leave us again?" A cute, sad Fely was in my sight.
"Okay, I'll stay here for a month before going back to Garreto."
"Yehey!" Princess Fely exclaimed. "You will play and stroll around with us for a month. That would be great!"
"You will destroy a lot of things. Pull me towards places that are f*******n and make me cover you against the Queen and King." I signed but she just giggled.
"Isn't it exciting?" this stubborn girl asked.
I just shook my head and said, "Come on, Fely, grow up."
Princess Assy chuckles, "Just let her. Let your demons out, even just for a while. I know you, sis," she said.
I can't help but chuckle. I've been the leader of disobedience when it comes to something I believe is not wrong to do, even if the kingdom rules prohibit it.
I could imagine what my father would look like. Hahaha!
"What look is that?" The King entered my room.
Princess Assy and Princess Fely immediately stood up and bowed down in front of my father. I tried to stand up but I couldn't.
"It's alright, just sit down," he said, while looking at me. "You two, sit down and continue eating." The two immediately sat down again.
My father looked at me and said, "How are you feeling now?"
"I'm getting better after I took the medicine yesterday."
"That's great! I'm just here to check if you're alright. I guess so, because you three were already planning to annoy me, huh?"
We three couldn't help but chuckle and look at each other while the King just shook his head.
"And you little kid, you're the youngest, but you're the leader. Huh? I'm really going to pinch your groin one hundred times!"
"Hahaha!" I and Assy laughed.
"Ouch!" Princess Fely exclaimed and laughed. "I love you too, father!" she said, which made our father just shake his head.
"I love you three, so don't make fun of f*******n things. It all has a reason why it is being implemented, even if you see it as unjust." He looked so serious. "I"I have a lot on my plate; don't add to my stress," he exhaled deeply. "I'm happy to see you two here with your elder sister. You two could help her recover faster."
