Why Are You Avoiding Me? Said the Alien Princess—Her Eyes Filled With Tears When She Heard the Truth

A science fiction narrative, presented as an audiobook, detailing a diplomatic exchange between a human officer and an alien princess. For a period of three months, the human commander systematically avoids the alien royal during the exchange, leading to speculation among court observers regarding his motives, such as arrogance or disrespect. The core conflict emerges when the princess confronts the officer about his avoidance, prompting him to reveal his true reason.

The officer admits that his avoidance stems from his inability to maintain professional detachment when near her, fearing that his emotions could be exploited by political rivals within the diplomatic sphere. The princess reacts emotionally upon realizing that his distance is a protective measure rather than a rejection. This story explores themes common in serialized science fiction and 'Humanity, F**k Yeah' (HFY) genres, focusing on interstellar politics and interpersonal conflict.
