"Please have a seat," King Noha said while sitting in a white couch when Princess Lorainne and Neil came to his office."What's going on?" Princess asked curiously, and she walked towards their parents first."We have something to tell you," said Queen Kristine calmly from her husband's left side."I don't like what I am thinking," Neil whispered to himself, and he approached his parents, sitting on one couch together with his elder sister and in front of their parents."What is this about?" Princess asked again, feeling uneasy in her seat because she can sense that something is up.Noha and Kristine looked at each other first as if they agreed on one thing and then, they turned their heads again towards their children."Well, I called you two here because I want to tell you both that we are retiring. Me and your Mom from the throne. We have decided to pass the throne to you, Neil, since your elder sister doesn't want to, and you are next to the throne. But don't worry, we will guide

"Don't worry, Sir. We're already inside, and it looks like I've gained his trust right away," said Dad as he stood outside the opposite door.I wonder who he talks to on the phone every night. Ever since we moved here to the big house where Dad worked as a housekeeper, he has always been talking to someone on the phone as if reporting it. “Good night, Sir. Bye," Dad finally said, and put down the phone he was holding.Meanwhile, I closed the door slowly and hurried back to my room so that he wouldn't notice that I was watching him. I immediately lie down on my soft bed and closed my eyes, and I heard my bedroom door open as I expected. I know that Dad opened the room, and he checked to see if I was still awake, and I didn't hear anything from their conversation when he was talking to the person behind the phone. After a few seconds, I heard the door slam, which meant that Dad had closed the door again, so I opened my eyes and breathed a sigh of relief because he didn't catch me.I kno

"Ugh!" Diana and I roared loudly after a few sips of wine."One more shot, please," Diana said in front of me, ordering one more."It's enough, Diana. I can't take it anymore," I complained, and I felt my head fall on the table on purpose because my forehead hit, and it has a sound."You're weak, aren't you," Diana said with a laugh that I heard. "Come on, let's go home," she mentioned, and I felt my right arm rise, meaning she was lifting me up. "Agh, gosh, Wendy, you're heavy," I heard her complaint, which made me smile."Fix my bu-vhu-hat sha," I said, even though I was very drunk.I can't feel my whole body any more because of being so drunk. I feel like a wilted vegetable."Let me help you," said a familiar man's voice that made me lift my head, but my vision was blurred even though I blinked a few times."Oh, thank God. Please, please carry him until we can take a taxi," said Diana happily as she immediately passed me to the man we didn't know who was kind enough to carry me.Th

"Here, read this," I said, and I handed to her a one sheet of paper about the contract marriage that we are going to deal with, while we are sitting at the dining table across each other."And you really have this, ha," she whispered, but I heard her, and she get the paper from my hand."I made that on the day that I offered you, just to my luck. Since you have your terms and conditions that I already put it in there, now you have to consider all of my terms and conditions too regarding this contract marriage. The number one on the contract, once we got married it says there that I will be the one to be in charge. It's not you, but it's me. Especially when my family is there, friends, and Mang Danny, your father--""Wait," she jumped in while I am talking that interrupted me from talking. "He is my father. I should be the one in charge when my father is there, and not you. And...Aren’t you thinking that my father would suspect us getting married too soon? He might think that we're rush

I couldn’t sleep.It’s midnight, the light here in my room is already off, but here I am and still awake. I couldn’t stay still. My mind is still flying, and for some reason my mind keeps repeating the scenarios a while ago whereas I embraced Wendy, the way I kissed her on her forehead gently, and the way she closed her eyes that time. I was tempted to kiss her on her lips, but I didn’t pursue because I was thinking that she might push me so, I just hugged her tight to comfort her that I think worked because she stopped crying. Because to be honest, when I saw her crying while leaving her father’s house even though she’s really not gonna leave, she will just transfer to my custody since we’re already married, made my heart ache. I know that it’s hard for parents to be away from their children whom they nourished and gave life, just like me and my parents, but in my situation, I was the one who part ways with them because I want to know until where my own feet could go.
