A prince, who is shy. A princess, who says "sorry" a lot. It's an erotic romance story about adultery. It kicks off at a hospital with an accidental Tweet. (Note that: someone in the story is still haunted by a past mistake.) And there's a twist! You should tell the story in the form of a diary.

It all started at the hospital. I had gone to visit my friend, who had recently been admitted for a minor surgery. As I was leaving, I passed a room with an open door and noticed a beautiful woman inside. I couldn't help but admire her from afar, and I was so captivated by her beauty that I made the mistake of tweeting about it.

Little did I know that the woman inside was actually a princess. I had no idea how to explain the situation and I was sure that I had made a huge mistake.

The princess, however, was surprisingly understanding. She smiled at me and said, "It's okay. Sorry for the misunderstanding." I was instantly taken by her kindness and her beauty, and I knew in that moment that I wanted to know her better.

A few days later, I had the courage to ask the princess out on a date. We went to a cafe and talked for hours. During our conversation, I found out that the princess had been married for many years, but her husband had been unfaithful to her. This knowledge made me feel both sorry for her and even more attracted to her at the same time.

We started to see each other more and more often and over time, our relationship became something more than just a platonic friendship. We couldn't help but be drawn to each other and before long, we were in love.

The only thing standing in our way was the princess's husband. I was scared that if he ever found out about us, he would put an end to our relationship. We tried to keep our romance a secret, but one day, he found out and our happy bubble was popped.

The prince was devastated and I felt so guilty; it was my mistake that had led to this. No matter how much I apologized, I couldn't undo the past.

We still see each other in secret, but it's not the same. The prince is still shy and I still say "sorry" a lot. I can only hope that one day, our love will be accepted and we can finally be together.

The weeks passed and our relationship only grew deeper and more passionate. We both knew that we could never be together openly, so we cherished every stolen moment we had. Even though the prince was still shy, I could tell that he was beginning to open up to me.

One day, I was walking in the palace gardens when I noticed a rosebush in full bloom. I was admiring the beauty of the flowers when I heard a voice behind me say, "Those roses remind me of you." I turned around to see the prince standing there, a bouquet of roses in his hands. I was so touched by his gesture and it made me realize how much he truly loved me.

From that day on, the prince was a changed man. He was no longer the shy and reserved person he had been before; instead, he was confident, passionate, and willing to take risks. He was no longer afraid of making mistakes, and I could see the love in his eyes every time he looked at me.

We continued to see each other in secret and our love only grew stronger. Even though we knew that our affair was wrong, our hearts were filled with joy at the thought of being together.

But then, one day, everything changed. I received a letter from the prince, telling me that he had to leave the palace and go abroad. He said that he was going to try to make things right and that he would return as soon as possible.

I was heartbroken and I felt like my world was crumbling around me. I had never been so scared before in my life. But I knew that I had to stay strong and have faith that the prince would return. Surely our love was strong enough to survive anything.

So I waited, day after day, for the prince to come back to me. I held on to the hope that one day he would return and that we would be able to be together without fear.

And then one day, the prince did return. He had made things right and he was free to come back to the palace. When he walked through the door, I rushed into his arms and we embraced each other tightly.

Finally, after all this time, our love had triumphed. We were able to be together without fear and our love was stronger than ever. I couldn't help but smile at the thought of our happy ending.

This was our story, a story of love and redemption. I will never forget the day the prince returned to me and how our love overcame all obstacles. No matter what happens in the future, I know that our love will be strong enough to survive.

part 3

As the years passed, our love only grew stronger. We were finally able to be together openly and we both cherished every moment we spent together. We were blessed with a beautiful daughter, who was the perfect combination of the both of us.

We were finally living our happily ever after. We were surrounded by family and friends, who all shared in our joy and celebrated our love. We were blessed to have found each other, and our love only grew stronger with each passing day.

The prince and I were so happy that we were together and that our love had overcome all obstacles. We were living our fairy tale, and it seemed like nothing could ever break us apart.

Our love was truly a miracle, and it will continue to be the light that guides us throughout our lives. We are thankful for the happy ending we have been blessed with, and we will always cherish the love that we share.
