Chapter 630 - Six Hundred And Thirty: Where Have You Been All My Life (1/2)
The third point of view:
”Come with us, Anika,” his sister, Jasmine, extended an invitation without his approval. Akim was immediately put in a tight spot as he didn't want to turn down Jasmine's offer.
So he said to Anika, ”Can you give me a few moments with my sister, I need to have a word with her,”
”Sure,” Anika said with a knowing smile that made Akim wonder if there was a need for privacy when she knew what they were about to discuss.
Nevertheless, Akim still moved away from her before he started a conversation with Jasmine,
”What are you doing?” He asked.
”Helping you make a move on the girl, you're welcome,” Jasmine said proudly as if she just did the world a big favor.
Akim face-palmed, ”I don't you to make a move -”
”I know you like the girl,”
”No, I don't,”
”Really?” Jasmine raised a dark brow.
”No,” He gulped, ”Maybe a little,”
She threw her hands up, ”How could you be so dumb?” she asked.
”What does a six-year-old know about love and relationship?” Akim asked back, astounded.
”I learned enough from mummy and daddy and the soap opera played in TV,”
At the mention of their parents, Akim was reminded of the fact that they were blatantly disobeying them and that was the wake-up call he needed.
”I'm sorry, Jasmine, but there's no point in doing this. I'm a prince, we don't belong in the same world and we won't last here anyway, remember?” Akim explained to her.
”So what?”
”So what?” he was astounded by her nonchalant question.
”You said it, we have a limited time here, so why don't you make full use of it?”
Akim shook his head, ”You're a kid, you don't understand -”
”When would you have a spine,” She pointed out that he wasn't brave and reminded him of the fact that Anika claimed the crown prince had no backbone. Unfortunately, the prince was him.
”I'm sorry if I sounded rude,” Jasmine apologized when she realized that was rude coming from her mouth, ”But then, you only live once, I suggest you do what you truly want for once,” she said and went back to Anika.
