FORBIDDEN LOVE C 12

Today I got up early not because I am still sad over yesterday's incident. I have heard a quote 'Don't ruin your good day because of a bad yesterday.' So that's what exactly I am doing right now.

I smiled widely and walked to the kitchen. There I found mia making something.

"Happy morning" I greeted her to which she did not say anything. Her eyes were focused on the cutting vegetables.

"Mia...mia ..wake up..mia...open your eyes."  I was continuosly patting her cheeks and calling her name but she did not open her eyes. I went to the fridge and took a water bottle then I sprinkle some drops of water on her face. After sometime she opened her eyes. 

"Hey, mi..." She collapsed on the floor before I could say anything further. I hurriedly ran to her.

"What happened? Are you not feeling well?" I got worried when I saw her pale face. It looks like she is sick. I touched her forehead and it was Burning with fever.

"Are you sick? I asked her.

"Hmmm...just a fever. It will go away after sometime." She said.

She got up slowly and started resuming her work.

"What are doing?...... You are not having just a fever mia. Your body is burning." I told her worriedly. 

When she did not move I grabbed her hand and said to her calmly.

"Mia, you are sick. You won't be able to do anything in this state. You should take some rest." I again said to her.

"No rose, the guest will arrive soon. If I rest then who will make the food. Other staff are already busy in other works. They will arrive soon." She said weakly. Her voice was low which was already indicating that she is not well at all.

'Guests?? Why I did not know? Ohh..yeah... yesterday I was hardly paying any attention in the kitchen. She is so unwell. How could I let her work in this condition.' I thought in my mind.

"Ok...how about you rest and meanwhile I'll preapre the food for guests? You really need rest. You won't be able to make the food in this condition. Try to undestand, mia." I persuaded her to agree with me. She thought for some Seconds then she agreed. I smiled and gestured her to go. 

"The food list is over there. The head master had told specifically to cook according to it." I nodded at her and she disappeared.

"Oh..so this is the list. It will take some time but I'll try complete it fast.....hmmm.... I can also add something more to make it more delicious" I kept the paper aside and started doing my work.

Third P.O.V.

Some luxurious cars was being parked one by one near the entrance of palace.

The driver opened the car door and three people came out of the car. 

"Hello.... It's really great to see you all in the early morning."Sebastian's father greeted the man and a woman who were same age of him. 

"Same here. Finally we are meeting again." The man said with a smile. 

"Of course... Hello Mrs.Gispert, I hope there was no difficulty to travel here." Sebastian's father said to the woman who was standing beside the man.

"Oh..no at all. It was all good." She laughed softly after replying.

"Is she Angelina?" Sebastian's father asked them curiously.

"Yes" they said.

"Ohh she has grown up so beautiful....When I first saw her she was such a small kid now look at her" he chuckled.

"I am sure that Sebastian must have also been changed. They will look really perfect with each other." Angelina's father said.

Angelina smiled shyly.

"Yes. Let me call him here. He must be in his room." Sebastian's father said.

"Rony, go and ask Sebastian to come down immediately." He then ordered one of his bodyguard.

"Let's not stand here. Please come inside. Make yourself comfortable." He gestured them with his hand towards the entrance which they followed.

..................................

Sebastian's  P.O.V

Sebastian was getting ready then he heard the knocking.

"Come in" He put on the blue t shirt and said in a deep voice.

"Your majesty has summoned you right now." The man curtsied and politely said to me.

I nodded and dismissed him to leave. I wore my rolex watch before going downstairs.

While coming downstairs I saw my dad talking to some people on the couch. 'who are they?' 

"Did you call me dad?" I asked him once I got near to him. He looked up at me and grinned widely.

"Ohh...son...come here and sit." He gestured me to sit on the another couch where one girl was already sitting.

I glanced towrads her and then again moved my eyes towards my father. 

I was still in confusion of who are they and why dad called me here.

Then something clicked in my mind. My yesterday morning conversation with my dad where he told me about arrrival of them. I internally groaned and said to him.

"I have some work right now so I'll take my leave if you don't have anything to say." Just as I was about to go he stopped me.

"Yesterday I have told you something if your busy mind remembers." My dad moved his face in my direction me in a way that only I could see his hard expression. 'Of course I remember that's why I don't want to indulge myself here.' 

I sat on the same couch on which that girl was sitting. I maintained much more distance between us than needed.

"This is king Albert and Queen Valeria of Silverstone Kingdom and.... their daughter princess angelina."He introduced them to me. 

He then turned his hand in my way. "And this is my son Sebastian." He said.

We all shook our hands with each other.

Silence prevailed in around us as nobody was saying anything. I also was sitting silently. I was really in mood to start the conversation.

"I think we should give some privacy to both Sebastian and Angelina so that they can start knowing each other." The man I think he was this girl's father told my dad while pointing to us. 

I glanced at angeni...ohhh..fuck off whatever her name is. She was also looking at me shyly. She was looking beautiful in a blue dress. She was actually looking attractive because of her hazel eyes and little bit curly brown hair. I could see her figure was also like a model. But......something is missing in her. Don't know what? 

I scoffed just by the thought that this girl will surely eat my piece of my mind for how many hours only god knows. I got up from the couch and started walking outside. Her heels which were making noise on the glass floor was letting me know that she is following me behind. We came at a empty place where the cold wind was brushing my skin. I looked back at her. She was shivering a little bit but she composed herself in a normal state when her met my eyes.

'oh please don't expect any warm gesture from me. I really don't care if she becomes a cold statue due to this weather. She should not have worn this dress at first place.'

I sighed and turned my face straight.

"Hey, I am angelina....uhh you already know. How stupid am I" She lightly chuckle and took her hands back when she did not get any respond.

"I hope you are okay with this thing of getting to know each other." She asked me when she saw my disinterest look.

"Sorry, but by seeing your face it looks like that you are not happy with this marriage deal." 

'Yeah..well you guessed right.' I said internally.

I still stood rooted to my place not saying anything.

"Could you please say something. Only I have been saying talking. I know that you don't want this to happen but we can first know each other. We already have been given time of 6 months to know each other. If after that time, still we are not conformable then we can call off this marriage." She took long breath and came in front of me.

"I can't say anything more than this. I ...I don't know much about you. My father only said to me that this proposal is very important for both him and your father. And I really respect my parents. Whatever they have said to me I always agreed upon those things without giving it much thought. But in your case I can ...I can try to convince him not to perform this deal if we don't get along with each other." She said looking at my face.

"So you can go now and tell your parents that you don't want to get married to me. in case they ask you a reason then tell them you did not like my behavior so that's why you are refusing or you can give another excuse also. I won't mind as long as this marriage doesn't happen." I said calmly putting my hands into the pockets.

She inhaled some air and then she spoke.

"I understand that you are not ready yet. I understand it completely. But you took my words in another way. I meant that first we should give us chance to know each other better then we'll decide what to do. You are going to be the king of this Kingdom how can you decide before trying it first." By her voice it seemed that she was trying not to get frustrated.

I gave a thought to her words. Indeed she looks really a understanding girl. I did not expect that from her. By looking at her appearance I thought she will come out similiar to her personality, Like a clingy girl.

"Ok." I said only one word after thinking.

"Okay, we will give it a try." I again spoke after seeing a confusion on her face.

"So that's decided. They will be happy to hear this" she smiled at me.

I also nodded and we both went inside the palace. 

By the time we reached, I saw everyone was sitting on the dining table. Dad was sitting on the main chair and they were seated to his left. 

I took out the chair for me beside my dad. My dad eyed me telling me something. I followed his eyes which was on angelina. She was standing behind. I think she was hesitating whether to sit next to me or not. I slightly pulled the chair behind for her. She smiled and sat beside me. 'why she always smiles.'

The staff served the food and we all started eating.

"So Sebastian and Angelina daughter, how did it go.?" My dad asked putting the fork next to the plate.

I just shooke my head to let them know it was fine.

"Yeah.. your majesty it was nice knowing Sebastian. We have also come upon a common thing." She said.

"Ohh... daughter...don't address me like that. Soon you are going to be our family for sure. So get yourself familiar with calling me dad instead." He said.

"Ok." Angelina said with a bright smile.

We were having our food. Suddenly angelina started coughing. I stood up and took the glass of water in my hand to make her drink. 

"What is this food made up of" Angelina's father was checking the food which she was eating a while ago.

"Did they add soy sauce in it by any chance." He asked my father. 

"JOHN" dad did not say anything and shouted.

"Ye..yes..your majesty." He came and nervously bowed to my father.

"I told you specifically to check the food list which was given to you then how can you be so irresponsible." He said.

"Your majesty. I instructed them very well to follo..." He was cut off by a female voice.

"I apologise to interrupt in between. But it's not his fault. He had told us but I did not pay attention to it." Someone said in a weak voice.

I looked behind my back to see the face of that person because somewhere I thought that I knew this voice. And yes it was this ugly duckling.

"Not paid attention. Are you really here for a work? How could you be so careless? If something had happened to her due to your irresponsibllity then what you would have done?." Dad was seething in anger. 

Uhhh...now this argument will continue till night' I thought. I decided to go to my room. I looked around and saw everyone was looking at her like she is the only one here. 

'So she has diverted everyone's attention to herself. Great... it's what she usually does to everyone.'

"Your majesty, I apolo..." she was about to say but cut off abruptly.

"ENOUGH" my father roared making her flinched. I stopped in my tracks and my eyes travelled to her face which was filled with fear but she was not showing it clearly. 

Tears were rolling down her face continuously. I don't know why was I feeling so bad towards her. It gives me pain to see her in tears. If it was because of me then I would not be feeling like this. But I don't want others to behave rudely like this to her. 

"Dad, calm down. Angelina is fine now." I told my dad so that he won't dragged this argument further. I know very well his acting. His fake concern.He doesn't care about angelina but about the deal. Just to impress others he could go to any extent belittle anyone. 

My words were go unheard by him as he still was getting furious and throwing draggers towards her. I couldn't see it anymore. She was still standing there like a statue listening to him. 'why can't she retaliate just like she does to me? She always shows me her strongest version but when it comes to others, she just hides it and pretends to be obedient. Wow just great.'

She was still not moving her place. Her eyes was stuck on the floor like it was the only thing to look at right now. 

I couldn't see it anymore. I went to her and grabbed her hand and walked away from that place. Everyone got startled with my act but I don't give a fuck about it.

"Sebastian... Sebastian...what the hell are you doing." 

My dad was screaming my name. But I know that even if I tell him to calm down he will still scold her to show them his caring nature just to save a mere deal with them. Fuck them all.
