Loving You in My Way
CHAPTER 5

*Child... Goongng... Gonngg...* The gongpun sound reads 3 times indicating that the race began.

"Twenty..!"Shouting Committee.

Baccara swiftly took out his arrows one by one.

*spllassh.... Splassh... Splash...* Baccara arrow shot sound.

It only takes a few seconds, he is able to stick his arrow right in the center of the target. This made everyone who saw it just gawk at the astonishment. Unexpectedly, such a complicated target was capable of him being conquered so easily and quickly. No exception Shata who was stunned to see the action Baccara. Shata just silently looked at Baccara who now stood staring.

The crowd cheers are starting to sound. Baccara showed the action again by shooting the center of the target again until the arrow that had previously stuck in the center of the target is now split into two. This immediately made the audience more boisterous shouting Baccara. Similarly, the queen who seemed to smile saw the action of Baccara. On the other hand, Shata and the other two participants could only be silent to see the action that Baccara had shown.

"Nineteen...!" Shouted the committee indicating that it is now Shata's turn.

*Splash... Splassh... Splashhh* the sound of Shata's arrow shot.

Shata did not want to look weaker than Baccara. However, based on the results of the jury time. Baccara is faster than Shata. Most startling was one of Shata's arrows missing from the center of the target. This happened because Shata who was unable to focus archery again due to the action of Baccara before. This made him very disappointed, as well as the audience who had flattered his name from the beginning.

"Like that's not all" Ejek Baccara told Shata.

Shatapun just fell silent and observed Baccara's movements. It seemed Baccara had actually managed to make Shata the Arrow Eye curious towards him.

The race continued, the number six and eight participants were also unable to shoot right at the center of the target. Just like Shata, they have also been nervous and unable to focus archery due to the action of Baccara.

This makes it easy for the jury to determine the winner. It did not take long, one of the organizers immediately called Baccara.

"I hereby announce that the winner of this archery race is Baaacccaaarrraaa" shouted the committee as he gestured Baccara to approach and receive a medal. The atmosphere around the arena was very crowded, many people were cheering on the name Baccara and not a few were talking about the defeat of the Arrow Eye.

"Happy Baccara, you are great" Shata told Baccara.

"Of course, didn't I say that I was the one who would win the race this time" replied Baccara who then left Shata and followed the race committee to take the prize that had been promised.

Arriving in the committee room

.....

"This talk is a gift of 100 herbs and this is your coronation paper as part of the royal security special forces. Two more days will be held for the rapture ceremony, so for now you will stay in the kingdom. Later there will be a royal bodyguard who will help you pack things and say goodbye to your family. For that, put your fingerprints here" said the committee while giving the paper and showing the location of the fingerprints.

"All right, thank you. But can't I go home alone? I promise I'll be back soon" Baccara said.

"Can't, this is a royal procedure that must be obeyed. There will be a few bodyguards with you" replied the committee.

"Hm... All right, can I go home now?" Ask Baccara.

"Yes, sure. The guards who will accompany you are already in front of the room" replied the committee.

He just nodded and rushed out immediately. Inwardly he was very upset that he was not given permission to go home on his own, when in fact he was also reluctant to be part of the royal security special forces and intended to escape.

"Let me drive to your horse" said a guard to Baccara.

"My horse? Did I get a horse?"Ask Baccara with excitement.

"Of course I can, even I can run beyond the running strength of this horse" Baccara replied.

The bodyguard smiled at Baccara's reply. All the bodyguards gave her compliments, even more so because she was a woman. There has never been a female royal security special forces. Only Baccar was the only female member of the royal security special forces.

On the other hand, Tara meets her best friend Shata who looks very lethargic. This was his first time losing an archery race. Tara immediately takes Shata to the temple to meet her father. Along the way he heard people gossiping about him. The men talked about his defeat and now flattered the name Baccara.

"Not to be ignored, you are still the Arrow Eye" Entertain Tara.

"The Arrow Eye that lost to a woman? Shameful" Shata replied in annoyance.

"It's been... It's been... Right now you focus on your father. Pray that he will see you" replied Tara as she offered the bread she had brought.

"Hopefully he will see me" Shata replied, taking the bread given by Tara.

They rush to Shata's father's temple not far from the race. Behind his frustration, Shata still holds a huge curiosity to the figure of the woman named "Baccara.

On the way, Shata and Tara see a woman who is no stranger to him. The woman was looking through the accessories in the lapel of an old woman. They came closer and it was true that the woman was Alysa.

"Beautiful this ring" Alysa said.

"Yes, it suits you very well" replied the old woman with a smile.

"Hey.. Alyssa. Are you here?" Sapa Shata's.

"Eh.. Shata and Tara. I heard you lost the match" replied Alysa.

"He's not losing, he's just giving up" Tara said with a smile.

"Haha.. If you lose, admit it" replied Alysa.

Shatapun just smiled.

"Son, you two better get out of here soon, not to want to kick you out but something bad will happen if you linger here. Here take this bracelet, take it from me" said the old salesman, pointing to Shata and Tara and giving Shata a bracelet.

"Huh? What bad things grandma?" Ask Shata.

"What does grandma mean?" Ask Tara.

"You have gone" replied the Seller.

They say goodbye to the old woman's salesman and Alysa. They were both confused and astonished, as well as Alysa who was just silent, as if understanding the intentions of the old woman's salesman.

"You better not get them involved" said the old lady seller.

"What does Grandma involve? They are both my friends. I don't understand what Grandma meant" Alysa replied.

Feeling bad about the seller's words, Alysa left the old woman's seller and did not buy a ring that she liked before.

"Basic granny freak" Inner Alysa.
