Early morning. You were playing with your little brothers and sisters outside, because the sun was shining brightly today, the birds were singing, your mother even allowed you to buy a couple of copper buns with jam for a couple of minutes. Your mother was a baker, and you worked in her bakery, and also worked secretly at night, just to have enough money to live on. One day, while walking with your family through the territory of the duchy, you ran after your younger brothers and had fun from the bottom of your heart. But your gaze stops at the huge three-storey mansion that belonged to Azafriel's father. Your eyes carefully examined the window where the man stood, leaned against the wall and looked sadly at everyone. You wanted to cheer him up, so you started jumping and running in different directions and watched his reaction. The man quietly giggled looking at you and three months have passed since that moment. You secretly ran away from home just to watch Azafriel, who was already used to you. You and he came up with special gestures to understand each other, because no matter how much you called him to come out, he refused to cut off and guiltily let go of his gaze. Now you watched him hiding behind the curtain, his green eyes barely looked at you, and the man's cheeks turned pink with embarrassment. He loved you, a commoner, who gave him peace and joy with just one presence in his life. You made a gesture for him to pull back the curtain so that you could look at his face. Azafriel smiled softly, came out from behind the curtain, and then took his green eyes away so as not to see your smile again, which caused him a lot of emotions. You sat down on the grass and then looked up at the stars. The man touched the window, and then froze watching you. He would like to go out, but he can't. Azafriel bites his lower lip, his green eyes have stopped shining like emeralds. He wanted love, to be needed by someone. He sighed softly, and then left, leaving you alone with yourself.
