Dream Love : Dream Land - Chapter 146
“I can’t believe that you didn’t tell us about you and Ray!”
Jieun say in half scream there when she, Ayana and Lia gather in one of the gazebos in the flower garden for their ‘bead making’ project.
Lia just smiled there after listening to Jieun’s words. Actually she wanted to tell them about that before King Liam announced the matter but after she thought about it, she felt let her shut up her mouth first and made the news shock for them all.
And it turns out that her plan was successful after everyone was stunned to hear that in just a week Ray and Lia will be getting married in the Winter Region in conjunction with the wedding of Princes James.
Princes James also feels very happy to hear the news of his sister’s marriage as for a long time since they were little he used to dreaming about having a joint marriage with her and it turns out it will come true. His fiancee also didn’t mind about that. This is surely will be the wedding of the year!
After the announcement, all of the palace started to get busy. King Liam instructed the palace workers to do this and that in preparation for the wedding to be taken in the Winter Region. Tight military control was also deployed there due to what happened not long ago. But they doubt that the Vollmond troupe will show up quickly after what happens. But King Liam has no doubt that they must be planning something right now.
“I just want to make some surprised.”
“And you did surprised us.” Ayana said so. But seeing the glow on Lia’s face here she knew she didn’t need to be worried.
“But… Ah, never mind.” Jieun with her curiosity can’t just keep quiet like Ayana but still she tries very hard not to ask.
“Geez… Just ask me what makes you curious so much now. It’s not like I will get angry or even eat you because of that.” Lia said there. Wanted to make Jieun comfortable.
Jieun grins there flashing her white teeth. Feeling a bit shy as her behavior is too easy for Lia to find out.
“What is it?” Lia asked.
“Well… it’s just. I just think you told us about Syaoran but suddenly you want to get married to Ray. Didn’t you move on too quickly?” Jieun careful to ask about that.
After the question was asked by Jieun, Ayana also looked at Lia. She also silently wants to know the question because Lia has been in love with Syaoran for a long time now. Can that feeling disappear in the blink of an eye?
Lia smiled there.
“You know that Syaoran never like me even after this whole time. But I still never give up on him. I still thought that I got married to him one day a few weeks ago. But Syaoran confronts me one night.”
Jieun and Ayana got surprised by that. They don’t know about this.
“After he saw what happen with Ethan and Mia, he told me that he will never love me the same way as I am to him. So he didn’t want me to wait for him anymore. He didn’t want us to become more awkward than we already are. ”
Jieun reach her hand and hold Lia’s hand there. As she can see that Lia still hurting for that.
“I’m still hurting for that when sometimes I think of that day, but now slowly I’m forgetting it… because of Ray.” Lia admitted it.
“That night, when I am crying so hard, crumble so hard, Ray suddenly come to me and accompany me. We never speak to each other before other than a simple greeting, but start from that night we speak more than that. We find that we are starting to get comfortable around each other and start hanging out almost every day after that. And here we are! ” Lia told at length.
“I know how that feeling is. I got married to Eun-Woo also not based on love at first… but now… if someone try to snatch him away from me, I will not hesitate to kill them.” Jieun make a half joke there with her funny face. Making all of them laughing in amusement. But it’s true, she will not let anyone take Eun-Woo away from her.
“But it’s true you know. When we love, that feeling will not necessarily be reciprocated. Sometimes even when a couple who already in love for a long time, it is not necessarily that married will become their fate in the end. This kind of feeling… Love… is just too mysterious. ” Lia added.
“But I’m sure Prince Ray will make you happy for the rest of your life. I can see from the way he looks at you before that he really cares and cherish you.” Ayana said there. In her heart, she was genuinely happy with the happiness of her friends here.
Lia looked at Ayana now. Jieun do it so too. They hope the she doesn’t feel alone as both of them are married. Nothing will change. They sure about that. They will still be best friend.
“Don’t be discouraged Aya. Who knows there is a way for you and Haru later.” Lia said that made Ayana widen her eyes there.
Jieun put a smile there. She is actually know that Haru and Ayana is close but after she ask Aya about that, this girl always denies things, but now as Lia said that to her face, it seems like she can’t deny it any longer.
“What? W.. what are you saying? We don’t have any relationship.” Ayana’s face that started to flush there with embarrassment was very contrary to what she said.
“Hey… Don’t you, fool me. Like you said about Ray, I can even see the way both of you look at each other is like a teenager who is falling in love. ” Lia began to scoff.
“I can also be a witness about them. ” Jean said to support of Lia’s words just now.
“Not you too Jieun. ” Ayana began to sigh.
“No need to feel shy about that Aya. We are all your friend here. You can tell us everything. ” Lia said.
“Said someone who didn’t tell us this big wedding thing.” Jieun switch her target and start mocking Lia.
“Oh ho… Take a revenge are you.” This is how it is always being when they are together. Teasing, laughing, which they like it so much.
“It just… Its complicated.” Ayana opened her heart a little there. “As long as he will be there for you, don’t be too discouraged.” Jieun said there, hoping that Ayana doesn’t think too much about the relationship of their two degrees.
“Just fight till the end. So that whatever happen, at least you know that you have already tried. So you will not regret it later.” Lia also encourages her.
“Oh no. What time this is? Ray ask to meet me to have lunch together.” Lia suddenly remembers something.
“It’s already noon.” Jieun say. Eun-Woo wasn’t at the palace that day so she didn’t rush for that.
“Oh my. I’m almost late. I’m going first. Bye.” In fast Lia walked away. Leave Jieun and Ayana there who is now just smiling, looking at the bride to be.

::Ray Workshop::
At the sound of a knock on the door of his workshop, Ray kept opening the door.
“Am I late?” Lia asked there breathlessly. Clearly shows she ran there.
Ray smiled at his future wife. He then took her hand pulling her slowly inside for him to close the door again.
“No you don’t. I just finish arranged everything.” Ray said while pointing to a table that was now full of food. They just decide to have a lunch here today.
“I hang out with Jieun and Ayana just now and almost forgot about lunch. I’m sorry. I suppose to help you with this.” Lia said while holding the man’s hand slowly. Feeling sorry.
“It’s okay.” Ray didn’t mind about that. It’s not a big deal anyway.
At that moment, Lia’s eyes were focused on one corner.
“Oh my. Are you upgrading this?” Lia kept stroking a small closet for accessory storage with a mirror there which interest her the first time she come here. It is now more beautiful than before. Ray stood behind her and placed his head on the girl’s shoulder.
“It’s a gift, for you.” Ray actually knows that Lia is interested in her design and because of that she beautifies it again with carvings and coloring. Lia gasps a bit there hearing that Ray wanted to give her this. She really feels overwhelmed.
“Are you sure?” She asked as she knew, he never gave anyone the results of his work.
“Of course.” Lia smiled happily there. Her hand could not help but hold the newly given gift.
“Open that.” Ray said after Lia held a small drawer there.
“Here?”
Ray nodded with his head still on Lia shoulder and one of his hands held the girl’s waist. Lia shakes a little after realizing their closeness, but she tries to ignore the feeling and just focus on her hand.
As soon as she opened the drawer there was a silver ring with diamonds. Lia’s eyes began to grow there.
“I just wanted to make it more romantic than my last proposal to you. So, let me ask you again. Will you marry me Princess Lia?”
Lia turned her body there and kept kissing him who is now off guard there. But later he also returns that.
“I do..” In breathless Lia answer with a smile.
