Half an hour later...
Today I tried to wear a white dress, a dress I had never worn before. I saw the whole side so plain, there were no trinkets or batik carvings accompanying. At the top, the dress is wide open. Keep my arms up, but my neck, shoulders and chest are a little clear. Maybe it's okay if I wear this dress, plus Rain's gift necklace seems appropriate.
I rushed to get my shoes and put them on. This holiday does not seem necessary to curl hair. I just let it run. Don't forget to wear the perfume of my choice, sweet chocolate-flavored.
I set foot outside the room and it turned out Rain was waiting for me in front of the terrace. He looks so nervous.
"Rain, are you intentionally waiting for me?"
I greeted him and he immediately turned to face me. Looking at my appearance today, Rain was like a gasp.
"Nature ...."
"...?"
"Ep. Hey, you've been a long time!"
I thought he'd praise me, but it turns out he's back where he came from. Sucks. Though I also want to be praised, especially I have tried hard to look beautiful in front of him.
"We're leaving!"
In disappointment at not getting a compliment from her, Rain pulled my hand to follow her. He was still wearing royal clothes with a sword on the left side of his waist.
"Eh...? How, we're going in the back?" many confused.
I thought we were going around town again today. But, in fact, not. Rain instead took me away through the back gate of the palace, not far from where my room was. But it looks darker because there are still many tall trees.
"I'll take you somewhere comfortable. You look so tired these few days. I'll give you the best waitress."
Rain made me laugh. His words tickled my mind. I should have been the one to give her the best servant, not even her.
In between the amused thoughts of his words, I saw that a dark horse was waiting for us at the back gate of the palace.
"R-rain?"
"You just calm down. There's me."
Rain tried to calm down, he then extended his hand.
"Well, Ara," he said.
"What-what? Rain I can't ride a horse" I said.
"You can definitely. Raise your left leg in this massage, then spread your right leg and twist." Rain explains how to ride a horse.
"But, Rain. I'm scared."
"Ara, there I am. You don't have to be afraid."
"Tap-tapi—"
"Here, try it first. If you just drown in your own thoughts, you won't be able to do anything for long." Rain cheers.
With fear, I then tried to practice what Rain said. I'm so worried that this horse is dragging me while I can't do anything.
"Rain, what if I fall?" ask again.
"I'll catch you" he replied.
"Really, huh?"
Rain replied with a nod and a smile. I then raised my left foot and stepped on the footing that was on this dark horse.
"Wheel! Rain!"
I was too scared, the horse was so tall. I'm a phobia of heights. My left leg managed to stand but I was afraid to widen my right leg and turn it towards the other footing.
I'm panicking. Rain remained on standby behind me in case I fell. Maybe because I panicked, the horse panicked too. This black horse neighed. Both of his front legs lifted and made me lose my balance.
"Wheel! Help me!"
"Mom!"
Rain quickly caught me. Now I'm in his arms. Implied his face that was worried because I fell.
"Ara, you have to brave yourself. Don't panic."
"Hm, i-yes."
I'm nodding. I felt the warmth when I was around him.
"Now you see me, huh?"
Rain then let go of his embrace with a smile. He showed how to ride a horse. Of course he's seen it. But in front of me, he exemplified it so slowly. Rain is on horseback. The horse also seemed silent.
"Come, up!"
Rain extended his hand towards me, taking the horse, but I was still afraid to ride it again. Maybe Rain was anxious with me so he acted fast. I pulled out my hand and I immediately set my left foot. My right leg was held by him, widened it, then he twisted my body.
"Well, like this."
Now I sit in front of him. Rain who had been sitting a little back, now moved his body so close to me.
"R-raini. We're riding one horse?" many wonder.
"Yes. How many horses do you think there are?"
"Two. We're one-on-one."
"You can't control a horse. And the horse doesn't know you. There's no way I'm gonna let you fall, Ara."
Rain started pulling his horse. This black horse started walking out of the back palace gate. While I was still speechless thinking about Rain's words.
He was very close to me, right behind me. It was as if there was no distance between us. Of course this situation made the fine hair on my neck stand up, I felt an amused shudder. My heart is pumping so fast. Rain's large hands also kept my body from falling. I don't know why, I feel comfortable with him.
There is a desire to lean on this moment. However, I was worried that it would cause something else. I don't know what to talk to her about. I was just enjoying the ride through the small forest to a place he promised me.
"Pregnant?"
"Hm?"
"You can lean on my chest." Rain suddenly offered. "Your body looks so tense."
Rain realized it so quickly. I admit my body is a little strange at the moment. Plus the movement of the horse path that is like placing an up-and-down emphasis on my body.
I'm trying to pass. I followed Rain's offer to lean on his chest. Her chest is so field. The body that I have only been able to see, is now my back. I felt the happiness begin to feel. I feel comfortable with him.
Rain smiled. His chin was right above my left ear. Sometimes I look at him. And I see he's not awkward at all. It was like he was enjoying this trip.
Along with that, it was as if someone was screaming from inside me. My soul demands to have it.
"Ara, are you okay?" the question that broke my daydream.
"Hem, ah, yes. It's okay, Rain. I'm just a little ...,"
"Little what?" tanyanya.
"Little what, yes ...," my god.
"Ara, you're this, yeah."
Rain then stroked my slender belly with his left hand.
Wh-what's this? What'd he do to me?
I was surprised by what Rain did. His left hand suddenly stroked my stomach and then held back his horse. Even if only for a moment, the swipe so gives meaning to me. Before long, he put his head on my head.
Rain, please .. don't make me feel comfortable. I'm afraid .. to fall for you.
I don't know why there was such a strange vibration with him. Could this be love? But is it that easy?
