The next three days were busier than ever .Alisha was very tired and fatigue took a toll on her body . She had to go on a strict diet to fit in the gown designed by the most popular fashion designer exclusively working for the royal family . After dinner she went into her room after borrowing books from the library . In a simple light blue nightgown she sat on her study table with only the light of the study lamp . It was quiet , there was only sound of the wind blowing . Tucking a strand of her behind her ear she tried to concentrate on the book describing Islan history . Zen peeked onto her room . Curious as to what she would be reading he went in without letting her know . He leaned over her much to Alisha’s astonishment .
“Ehhh…. What are you doing here ?” She whispered loudly . “You almost scared me . ”
“I just wanted to check on you if you were asleep or not but you are busy doing something . Why on Earth are you reading history ? You don’t have a test or something do you ?”
“No… My studies are on a halt . Still I thought I would read something . I was … I’m Very nervous actually !”
“Why ? It’s not like you …” Zen took a seat next to her .
“I can’t let my guard down . There are going to be many of your relatives and friends and family . What if they ask me about Isla and I don’t answer. They would reject me right away ” Alisha bit her lower lip in tension .
“Yeah. .. That would happen ”
“No way … I mean.. so I just have to gain some knowledge for the time being .”
“Hmm right I’ll help you out . “
