Saïda’s POV:
At four that evening, I was sitting outside in the front lawn of the palace and thinking of what had happened earlier in the afternoon.
′That was a close one.′
I bit the tip of my thumb nervously.
′Asahd was so angry. I could actually see it in his eyes and through his sarcastic smiles.
Oh gawd. I hope he isn’t angry with me.
I told Noure not to come! I told him not to!′
As I thought, I saw Asahd step out of the palace and down the stairs. He was dressed in his sport attire and I could tell he was going to the gym.
He was frowning as he entered one of the Royal cars, joined by a guard and a driver. They drove off.
′He’s probably angry with me.′
I watched them drive out of the property. He had his own personal gym in the palace yet if he decided to go to the public one, then it meant he wanted to be away from the palace people.
′From me?′

I was chatting with my friends in the garden. It was already six PM.
We were talking about many things but I wasn’t surprised when Asahd’s name popped up as usual. Salma told us how he’d apologised to her and the others did same. Apparently he’d apologised to all of them.
′That’s nice of him.′
“Honestly,” Aya started with a giggle. “I don’t care about the apologies because I was never offended. If he asks me to massage him again, I would!”
“We all would. That’s no secret,” Aisha added and they laughed.
“Have you noticed that he doesn’t bring all these strange and shameless woman back to the palace, anymore?” Leila asked.
“True.”
“He’s changed,” I told them. “He’s actually become the type to grow true feelings.”
