When I opened my eyes, it was already morning. The time was 6:00 AM. The alarm just went off, but I don't remember putting a notice on.

"Mom must have done it."

Huh? Why am I still connected to VR gear? I logged out last night and...I never woke up?

"Well, at least my head or body doesn't hurt anymore."

I got to know some stuff last night. I need to dig out what happened 30 years ago.

After taking a bath and eating breakfast, I went to the park where Elena was waiting.

"Hey"

"Morning"

"Good morning."

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing"

"Are you hiding something?"

"I am not."

"Das?"

"Yeah?"

"I am your girlfriend."

"I know that"

"You shouldn't hide things from your girlfriend."

"I am not hiding anything."

"Are you sure?"

"Yeah"

I don't even know what's happening to me; how am I supposed to tell others.

"Das"

"Hmm?"

"I love you."

"I love you too."

"Let's hold hands."

"Sure"

"Huh?"

"What?"

"Is that okay? You said we shouldn't do it in public."

"I don't care."

"I see, then...kiss me."

"Sure"

"Wai--"

I kissed her.

"Anything else?"

"Idiot. I was kidding."

Her face is red.

"You are cute."

"What's wrong with you today?"

"There is nothing wrong."

"It's Monday today."

"So?"

"You said we would only kiss on weekends."

"I don't care about that."

"Seriously, what's wrong with you?"

"There is nothing wrong."

My mind is prominent now. For the past few days, my headache was killing me, but now I feel so refreshed.

"Hey Das"

"Hmm?"

"No...it's nothing."

"What's wrong?"

"It's nothing."

"You are fidgeting. You always do that when you have to say something."

"Selena, she found out about that photo."

"Which photo? Oh, you mean the..."

"Yeah"

"So what's wrong with that?"

"Actually...I haven't told her yet."

"Told her what?"

"That I am going out with you."

"What?"

"I haven't told her that I am dating you."

"What? Why?"

"She is...she is very possessive."

Grace said the same thing!

"So, what now?"

"I told her that the person in that photo is not me."

"...."

"I am sorry."

"It's okay, but your parents haven't told her that you are dating me?"

"They haven't."

I guess they don't want to interfere with their daughter's matters.

"I warned them if they told her, then I would shut them up."

"You shouldn't say that to your parents."

"I promise I will tell her soon."

"It's okay. Take your time."

It's exactly like what Grace said. She has been in touch with Selena for a long time. Grace loves Elena; I still don't know how I should react. She has been in love with Elena for 13 years. If she wanted to do something, she would have done it already, but still, I can't let my guard down.

Elena plays LWO because of Grace because the Devil sent Elena the VR game and VR set for free. I play LWO because of Elena. If Grace wanted to do something to Elena, she had plenty of chances. Maybe she doesn't want to get hated by Elena? Just like me. I won't go easy on her if she tries to do something to Elena.

I gave her mine and Elena's contact information. She will not try to contact Elena; If she wanted to do that, she would have already taken Elena's number from Selena or played LWO. I gave it to her like, 'Keep enemies close to keep an eye on them.'

"What's wrong, Das?"

We are walking to school, holding hands.

"Hey Elena"

"Hmm?"

"What do you think about Grace?"

"She is like my friend. She is easy to get along with. It's like I have known her for ages."

You have! You had already met her when you were a kid. You have even met Lier.

"I was asking about yesterday. She confessed to you, what do you think of that?"

"What do I...I don't know."

"Elena"

"I don't know. No one has confessed to me before, and she is a girl too."

"I am not asking about the answer to the confession. I am asking your thoughts on it."

"She is like a friend. I respect her"

"What about me?"

"I love you."

"Nice. If you ever leave me, I will kidnap you and lock you in my room."

"That's scary, but I don't mind it."

"I will kiss you every day and do other stuff."

"Other stuff...Das, you pervert," she said with her red face.

This turned pretty awkward.

"Hey, Elena. Are you still okay with me being with other girls?"

"Why do you keep asking that?"

"No, it's just, you get jealous when I talk to other girls. Are you okay with sharing me with other girls?"

I glanced at her face. She was making an annoyed face. I admit it's my fault.

"I said I am okay with it, but I don't know. If it comes to live without you or share you, I will choose to share you."

"I will do what you want. If you ever change your mind, tell me."

"Why are you saying like you already have other girl?"

"I was saying it hypothetically."

That was close! There are two girls other than Elena, who loves me. Miss Serah and Lier. I met Miss Serah a few months ago; I don't know what I should do. I will think about her later.

Lier. She is the most important person to me after Elena and my parents. All these years I have seen her as a friend, as a sister but...she loves me. Marriage with cousins is pretty standard. I can marry her if I want to, but do I love her?

She gave me three months. I will turn 18 in 3 months. I will be busy with the royal family stuff. I might even stop going to school if I succeed the throne. One day, I will have to choose.

Multiple lovers are not rare in the royal family, but I won't do anything like Elena is not okay with it. How do I feel about Lier? If I answer her with half-hearted feelings, I will just end up hurting her. I have to talk with Lier, but first, I need to sort out my feelings.

There is a legend in the royal family; the royal family members will get or get pregnant at the age of 20; no one can avoid that. The only person who broke the legend is my mother. Can I break it too? What about Lier?

If I reject her, she will eventually fall in love with someone else, and when she turns 20, she might even....do I want that? Am I okay with it? The answer is clear.

"Hell no."

"Huh? What was that?"

"I was just talking to myself."

"Das is turning into an idiot.".

"Looks like I am catching your idiocy."

"That makes us an idiot couple."

"That's not something to brag about."
