Melting your Precious Heart

Chapter 3 - Meeting the ice cold princess

I was at the workshop now supervising the process for making the bullock and wheelbarrow, it's been a week after that incident but it feels like yesterday I still remember the feeling.

Flashback : A week ago

I immediately pulled back as I realize what's happening, even in my past life I didn't have my first kiss. If your going to ask me on hows the experience then I don't know how to answer that because it's my first time but one thing is for sure, her lips is so soft.

End of flashback

It's good yeah it's good I mean it's good that she was half asleep that time, after I pulled back she rolled over then fall back to sleep but since then I can't look her in the eyes. She doesn't remember a thing so she's okay but for me it's really awkward I can't even greet her properly.

Her name was Elaine she was at the same age as me, to be honest I don't see her as a lover because we were together since kids but the others seems to love her. I can't blame them though she's the cutest girl in our village with her short silky straight black hair that almost touching her shoulders, she have a pure white skin that can rival even the nobles that visits our village when there's a occation.

Everything that I mentioned must be too good to let her be with someone else but I feel like there's someone for me and it's not her. To be honest if I add my age of my past I must be over 30 but somehow I feel like younger, maybe because I didn't mature enough and receiving task and jobs that fits my age in this world so I just let it go and go with the flow right now I'm 12 so I might as well act like a 12 years old.

The production of the bullock and wheelbarrow was good in just a week we are able to make 15 bullocks and 32 wheelbarrows that's been used by the farmers around the village.

"Yoh kid, your really amazing for thinking about this kind of things" Talking to me was Mr. Solomon as he came out of one of the workshops.

"Sometimes I also think that I am a iligitimate child to be this amazing, maybe I'm actually from another kingdom that's super advance" I said while making some weird hand gestures to make me look like I'm from another country.

"Keep your voice low you little!, what if your father hears that? did you forget when you make a joke about your nose looking different from your father? he went and argue with your mother for no reason and got beaten up by your mother. I am the only one who gets your jokes so make sure you lower your voice, and don't forget thag your a noble if someone hears that that may affect your family's standing so be careful okay?" Even if I don't want to admit it I was born in a noble family even if were the lowest rank out of the nobles but noble is a noble and being a noble means responsibilities.

"Okay okay I will refrain myself from saying those kind of jokes in the future"

3 months later

I am now on our carriage, why am I in our carriage? because we are going into the castle right now. I don't know how did it happen, father just said that because I'm his son and I'm a genius. Sometimes I can't trust father for the words he's saying but there's nothing to do anyways so why not.

I'm a little bit nervous because this is my first time going into the castle. I've been thinking on why did the royal family invited me to the castle and the best answer that I get was the inventions that's been useful this past 3 months that even other villages come to order some of our tools. Did my inventions popularity reach the castle?

I'm getting hungry just by thinking of it, looks like my pack lunch will be eaten ahead of time than what I have planed.

Going into the castle was a day trip from our village, our village is actually one of the nearest village to the castle so I don't have to worry about getting hungry on my way because a one pack lunch is enough until we arrive at the castle. Father and mother didn't come because they said that it's a way of training for a noble.

"Look at this, mom really loved me" mother cooked some of my favorite dishes and even pack some pancake for me.

This pancake was one of the few dishes that I taught mother because I really miss them and the ingredients is available so I thought why not.

After eating I feel sleepy so I sleep thinking that there's a few hours before I arrive at the castle.

When I wake up we already arrive at the castle, I step out of the carriage to be surprise by a super tall gate. I talk to the guards and let them see my invitation letter and my badge.

Badges are available to all nobles but the designs are different for every noble. When they saw my badge and the letter of invitation they immediately let me in and there is one thing that I regret, letting the carriage go and telling the driver to let me handle it because after I pass the gate there is a road that was long enough that I can't even see the end of the road.

I can see the tip of the castle when we where outside the gate so I thought it was near the gate but I was wrong the castle was so far away.

"It might take me at least an hour to get there, who's idea to let the carriage go?! ... oh it's my idea" I was talking to my self in this quiet road until a carriage suddenly stops beside me.

"What are you doing here young man?" A middle age man came out of the carriage.

I explain to him my situation and thank God he's kind and let me ride his carriage.

I excuse my self and ride the carriage then I realize that the man who gave me a ride was not the only person that's riding the carriage.

There was a girl with a long white hair that extends until her hips, she has a small face that's cute in it's own way, she's so beautiful the most beautiful girl I've ever seen in my whole life. It's not even exaggeration if you call him an angel, She's so perfect in anyway but she seems to be shy because she's not even saying a thing when I introduce my self to her.

Our trip was so quiet and awkward until her stomach made some noice, it seems that she's hungry. Looks like I can at least gave her the remaining pan cakes that mother gave me.

"Looks like your hungry, I have some pancakes here if you want I can give them to you" I said and bring out the pancakes.

"Grampa said, never eat food that comes from a stranger" She rejected me right away but at least I heard her voice.

"Thank you little Felix and I'm sorry for that, I know that you were trying to be good so in exchange let me get that at least it will save you some face right?" Mr. Philip was so kind unlike this girl who doesn't even look at me and looks like a spoiled brat.

Your beautiful but it seems like it's only in the outside but in the inside you have a cold as ice heart.
