The Crown Prince's Love

"Is that what you think Desmond is?" I asked him. "Do you think that I am a selfish person?"

He rolled his eyes and nodded in response.

"you think you are the only one hurting from all of these? I, too....." I paused and bit my lower lips as I felt tears welling up in my eyes. "it is not so painful that you might not remember anything except if you are the one who is pretending. I never wanted this to happen, and I know you blame me for it aand....."noveldrama

"I don't want to listen to your petty talks, Your Highness. Let's end this meeting, and if you want to use your authority on me by forcing me to read the presentation, then I shall do that because you are the crown prince, and no matter what I say or do, it can't change anything from the fact that I don't remember anything about you. I am glad that I don't," he said with a straight face, not showing any sign of emotions.

He was frowning at me without saying anything else, but I could understand his words and know that he was speaking them out of hatred for me.

I lowered my head, and a lone tear escaped from my eyes. Unlike him, I was not strong enough to try to act strong. I was too emotional, I wouldn't say I liked that, and couldn't hide it from anyone, so I was like that. I couldn't stop the tears that were trailing down my face, and to hide my face from everyone else, I remained with my head lowered to the ground.

Desmond no longer wants me, which shows in his actions and words. He truly hated me, and no matter what I tried to do to change it, he was never going to listen. The library suddenly went silent since we were the only ones there, and no one was saying anything. Even though I was in tears, I didn't let my silent sobs sound in anyone's ears and continued to hold myself back from crying out.

"Everyone," John finally spoke up. "I don't think we need to bring up the past anymore."

.He was wrong. Now was the time to find out if this would be the end and if I genuinelv wanted to erase Desmond from my head. I have tried to make it work. I have tried to make him listen to me and tried so hard to make him see that I was genuinely trying my best, but he couldn't see that, and instead, he hated me for everything that had happened to him.

My fault. I know that the accidents were my fault because my attitude had led to our separation, and I can't change that, but I truly wanted to see if he was pretending not to know me or if he was acting like that because he hated me. I wanted to know, and so I raised my head with tears in my eyes. "I need to ask him some questions; please leave us be for a few minutes," I requested.

Ariel quickly moved to my side and placed her hand on my shoulder. "Are you alright?"she asked. "why are you crying?"

I wiped my face and sighed. "please, I need to be alone with Desmond," I requested.

Ana and John nodded in response and stood to walk away while Ariel remained seated. "you can see that you are putting the crown prince into many problems. Why are you doing that!" she yelled at him. "if this continues, then I might have to report you to the king because....."

"Ariel!" I shouted her name. "please, just leave!" I begged.

Ariel stood up hesitantly and pointed to Desmond. "I don't care what relationship was between you both in the past, but if the crown prince is hurt because of you, then I am going to show you my other side!" she threatened before walking away.

Once we were alone, I heaved a deep sigh and rubbed my hands together. "you must hate me so much for what had happened to you, right Desmond?" I asked him, but he didn't say anything, nor did he show any emotion, unlike me, who couldn't control how I was feeling at that moment. "please don't hate me, we can make this work between ourselves, and I know that you truly..."

"Please wake up, crown prince, and stop acting like a child. I already told you that I don't remember anything about....."

"lies!" I yelled at him, slamming my hands on the table. "you are lying, and I know that. You truly cared about me, yet you are like this because I am the reason for what happened to your legs."

"Don't act as if you truly care about me, Randy!"

My eyes widened in shock as he called my name. I didn't expect he would call my name, and it made me wonder if he was back to himself. "....."

He chuckled and folded his arms. "I remembered everything, but have you ever wondered why I choose to pretend!" he shouted, then pointed a finger at me.

"Because you are a weak prince, and you don't have any power!" he cried. "when I woke up after the incident, your father visited me and told me to pretend, which is why I am like this."

I lightened up in shock at the sudden discovery. Desmond's actions towards me were because my father didn't want us to be together. I didn't want to believe him, but I knew that it was what my father could do.

"I truly tried to make it work out between us, but Your Highness, you acted weak, and I couldn't be with someone who couldn't defend what we have. You quickly accepted his terms because you want to uphold your title. Randy, you are a selfish jerk, and so, i decided to make you suffer for it, but I can't do this anymore," he muttered and then took a deep breath. "I would like if we could act as if we don't know each other this time. What we had was great, but Randy, how can we be together when I am powerless and like this, and you can't even defend yourself in front of your father!" he said and then paused as he dipped his hand into his pocket. "here, have this," he dropped the necklace that I had threw away on the table. "I will wait for you to return this necklace to me to show if you truly care about me. If you don't, Randy, then you wont see me again," he muttered and then wheeled himself out of the library, leaving me in shock with my eyes widened and

I was still recovering from finding out that my father was involved in our separation.
