The beautiful coral coloured hair was fluttering elegantly in the wind. She was dressed in a beautiful yellow dress , gazing at the ocean with her warm emerald coloured eyes. Arnold realised once again that this woman will finally be his wife in a matter of days not being able to restrain anymore he started approaching her as she admired the scenery before her.
"Rishe" he called her but she didn't respond usually she would have sensed him approaching from 50 meters away.
"Rishe" he called again gently placing his hand on her shoulder causing her to slightly jump in surprise.
"Oh! Y-your highness" Rishe said.
"I called you many times but you didn't respond what were you thinking about?" He asked with worry evident in his voice.
"Oh nothing much just admiring the scenery" she replied with a close eyed smile.
Arnold knew that this was a lie instantly but didn't pry anymore as he realised long ago that Rishe was not the type of person to share her inner thoughts with others. Despite her cheerful and out going appearance she was a very reserved person with many many secrets.
She turned and started gazing at the ocean again with an absent minded demeanor and he also joined her.
In the distance the harbour could be seen which meant that they will arrive in the capital soon after a short carriage ride and he will not be able to see her often because of wedding preparations.
"You are going to be pretty busy once we reach the capital" he said addressing her.
"I suppose so" she replied nonchalantly.
"Don't overwork yourself if anything is hard just leave it to Oliver" he said in a reprimanding tone.
"Yes I understand as I told you before I really enjoy the wedding preparations and don't find them overwhelming so please don't worry"she said with a cheerful smile trying to reassure him.
He looked at her with softened eyes. After arriving in the capital he got off the carriage first and escorted her as well. She looked ahead towards the palace with an incomprehensible expression on her face. Following her line of sight he found two people approaching , she stepped forward and greeted them with an neutral face.
"It has been a while dear mother, dear father" she said.
He has always known Rishe to be a cheerful person with a very welcoming atmosphere that makes people feel at ease when around her so it took him by surprise to see her act so coldly. It always worried him that she must miss her home after coming to Galkhein.
Isn't she happy to meet her parents after so long?.
"Why does she seem so distant?" He thought.
