The next morning......
Charlotte spent her whole day being chased by Claude.
"Charlotte!" Claude shouted.
"I'm not Charlotte, I already told you!" Charlotte shouted.
Charlotte continued to walk. She was heading to the library to find some peace.
"No, I know you're Charlotte!" Claude continued.
"How so?" Charlotte asked
"The birth mark!" Claude answered.
Charlotte was taken aback.
"Wh-what birth mark? I don't have anything like that." Charlotte said. She looked surprised.
"You're trembling." Claude mumbled.
He approached Charlotte and attempted to hold her arms but....
"Dont touch me!" Charlotte Shouted.
Charlotte ran inside the library and locked the door.
'I must have mistaken it'
'Yeah I'm just mistaken' Charlotte continued.
Weeks passed, Claude's pestering never ended.
He continued to follow Charlotte everywhere and that made Charlotte uncomfortable and annoyed.
"Why are you following me?" Charlotte asked.
It's time to confront Claude.
"I got your secret, Charlotte" Claude said.
"So should I silence you?" Charlotte laughed. She looked at Claude.
"Charlotte-"
"Don't call me by that name!" Charlotte shouted.
"Why do you call me Charlotte? I'm charles!" Charlotte shouted. She can't believe herself. The name that made Charlotte disgusted. She doesn't know what her true name is anymore.
"No, you're cha-" Before Claude could finish.
"Prince Claude.... I don't want to say it anymore" Charlotte said. She stared at Claude with threatening eyes.
"You're pissing me off" Charlotte continued.
Before Charlotte could even walk away, Claude wrapped her with his arms.
He embraced Charlotte with his warm body. Charlotte could feel the warmth.
"I know. I know youre her" Claude mumbled.
Charlotte broke free of Claude's embrace and turned back.
"You got the wrong person, prince" Charlotte said and walked away.
Her steps fastened and fastened.
"Charlotte....." Charlotte mumbled.
It is so long since she heard someone call her by that name.
'I don't know anymore' Charlotte sighed.
From then on, Charlotte ignored Claude.
Everything that Claude did was something Charlotte never bothered to care about.
She has her own world.
A world where there's no ally and no one caring for her nor she cares about. A world only full of enemies that she must put her guard up all the time.
Charlotte looked straight with serious eyes.
Claude could only look at her from afar. With longing eyes that seemed to be confused.
Charlotte entered her room and closed the door.
She opened a book under her bed and read the contents.
"Once upon a time, there was a prince and a princess who loved each other. One day, The princess suddenly ran away from the prince with her secret lover. The prince was enraged and ordered her secret lover to die. It turns out that the princess was bewitched and controlled by the man. The princess who was saved by the prince embraced the prince with tears. The two of them lived happily ever after"
The other version of the story her mother used to tell her.
"The author must be a fool" Charlotte sighed.
She looked at the outside of the window and stared at the dark sky.
"Mother... " Charlotte mumbled.
