"Good Afternoon Prince Ezekiel!"

Ezekiel looked at the noble girls and boys who just greeted him from the side and smiled at them in return. The group sighed in awe as they felt overwhelmed by his magnificent shining aura.

He was walking through the garden to go to the Student Council's office when his eyes caught sight of a familiar figure lurking around. It was Nadia, and she was wearing an aggravated expression while walking briskly to and fro.

'Nadia?'

Ezekiel doesn't know if he would stop and greet her or continue walking without saying anything and decided to do the latter. Just then, Nadia's eyes locked on him and suddenly stopped. He had no choice but to stop as well.

"Good Afternoon Prince Ezekiel," Nadia greeted with a smile that didn't reach her eyes. She was still looking annoyed and he wonders why. .

After greeting him, Nadia started ignoring him again which made him a bit surprised. He thought because Nathan wasn't around, she would start clinging to him like before. The last time was just a show, he thinks.

Ezekiel's brows scrunched together and stared at her slightly frowning face.

"You are acting weird," He mouthed.

One of Nadia's eyebrows raised in question.

"Why does Prince Ezekiel thinks so?"

His head tilted slightly to the side as he regarded her.

"Because you're calling me that and you are not annoying me like always," He stated.

Nadia took a step back and blinked at him, feeling shocked. Afterward, she started laughing out loud which made Ezekiel stares at her in confusion.

"I apologize for being annoying Prince Ezekiel," Nadia utters, still giggling. "I promise that I will never do that again," She said and sported a small smile.

Ezekiel was taken aback but didn't show it to his face. Instead, he bored his eyes on her once more, trying to fathom what's running on her mind.

'She is really strange.'

Narrowing his eyes slightly at her, the corner of his mouth lifted in his version of a smirk.

"Heh, so you are not going to call me your prince charming again?"

Nadia who saw it, almost got a heart attack looking at his handsome face smirking like that.

'Gosh, what a handsome man! This face should be illegal! Ugh, too bright!'

Nadia's face flushed for a moment and averted her eyes.

"That was me being young and foolish. I was just appreciating Prince Ezekiel's handsomeness. I like handsome men after all" She replied.

"Was? So I'm not handsome in your eyes anymore?" Ezekiel teases.

'Heh. Blushing Nadia? That's new...'

Nadia's eyes slightly narrowed from the prince's teasing.

'This guy! He's having fun picking on me!'

"You still are, but my brother looks better in my eyes now" Nadia responds and beamed at him.

This made Ezekiel laugh out loud, causing Nadia to stand there looking stunned by his sudden outburst. The Prince's head was thrown back from the action and his laugh resonated around the garden.

'What the heck. The prince is laughing? This prince? I made him laugh!'

Nadia stares at the laughing Prince that looked even more handsome in her eyes now. He was already good looking by just wearing that same smile every single day but it tripled!
