Empress POV
Everything went back to normal, we were now finally out of that freaking haunted house.
And now we hurried back to school to watch the fireworks display and we made it on time the fireworks display was about to begin
Everyone was happy
Different color of fireworks. We silently watching the fireworks. When suddenly Kiefer held my hand. I immediately looked at him I got speechless
He was holding my hand I saw him looking at me no staring at me. He smiled at me and kissed my hand. Together we watched the fireworks displays while holding hands.
Lucas POV
I saw everything when I was in the haunted house and now seeing my love together with her love it hurts I don't know when I first saw her.
My heartbeat suddenly beat like crazy she was so perfect but now I know I'm not ..
I don't want to break. king is my friend. Bestfriend to be exact I have to be patient because I know they will be happier with each other. Only now have I seen king like that since lux (Empress) came, a lot has changed with him.
We used to only be with him when he was in the mood, kiyoshi and I were with him and I saw it too when he took lux to his secret place, I still remember what kiyoshi told us
"He's mine, whoever I take to my secret place, he's the one I'm going to blame" He said with a smile
We all said that, it's just the case, we're the same, we're the same woman. I was just taken to the secret place. I just smiled bitterly and walked away from that place and I went to the garden to see the fireworks display. I didn't feel the presence following me. When I looked around, I saw a large woman. I wasn't mistaken, Xia.
"h-hey" He said when I catch him I always catch him following me but I just don't pay attention
"hey" I said too and he stood beside me
"Are you sad?" he asked but I didn't answer and kept looking at the fireworks
"remember to live life is beautiful, you know not all your life you will feel happy. It's normal to suffer sometimes cause, that's how it should be. Life is not trilling without struggles and challenges. you will experience ups and downs but all you have to do is move on, and keep moving forward "xia said Kaya napatingin ako sakanya
"You think I'm selfish? I watch the person I love. Loving someone else and I still smile and wish their happiness" I suddenly asked
"You love her right?" she suddenly asked
"w-who?" I nervously said
"silly of course Em kung sabagay sino ba namn ang hindi maiinlove sakanya nasa kanya na ang lahat" Saad naman ni xia
"yah I love her but she love someone else" I said having a weak smile
"don't smile if you're not happy I know that feeling. The one you love who loves someone else" she said So my smile was erased
"you know what why Cinderella run away from the castle when the clock strikes twelve? He suddenly asked
"because everything will go back to normal because of what the fairy God mother said" I answered with hesitation
"yah but the moral story is to remind us that everything has a limitations even our dreams" Saad namn nya Kaya Napa tahimik nalang ako
"When it come to her, it feels like I'm wishing a wish that can not be granted, wanting that I can't really have, and loving a person who can't love me back" I suddenly said
"You don't need to be sad for the rest of your life, someone loves you too, the problem is that you're focused on the woman you don't love, so you don't see those who love you" He said meaningfully
"what do you mean?" I asked
"nah, nothing just saying don't focus on something you know you're a loser" He said So I looked at him
"yah your right" I said with my lower voice
"show them your smile but never your pain" she said
"no, sometimes even you smile but your eyes telling the opposite" I said while Naka looked at the sky the fireworks display was over
"but how can you smile even if you have a problem? I mean I didn't know that you were also trained to go through that you're a shy girl and also happy" I asked she smile and said
"I smile not because I'm happy, it's because I accept the fact that problems are part of my story" she said while smiling Kaya napangiti nalang din ako.
Empress POV
The day come We are going to Hola kingdom now for dinner oh Don't you blame the speed on the little author.
After that night, Kiefer and I didn't change anything, it was getting a little closer because he was always very close and now I'm preparing something to wear for dinner.
I saw the simple white cocktail dress, she was beautiful and very elegant. I fixed it before. My heels were 4 inches. Then, when everything was in order, I took a shower and did my night routine.
When I finished taking a bath, I dried my hair first and put on the clothes that were just right for me and the right size. The shape of my body was visible and I also put on Light make up. I'm beautiful and put on earings and necklace then I heard a knock and when the door opened in front of me it was girls
When they were in front of me, you thought they were stunned while looking at me. So I faked a cough and they went back to normal.
"omg em is that you myghaddd you look really goddess shett nakaka tomboy" Belle said She was wearing a gray off shoulder dress and heels
"ate em wahhh You're just mine" Sofia said and suddenly hugged me She was wearing a simple above the knee dress and heels
"em how to be you po" said xia Naka she was wearing a tube dress that was a black thing with her
"You're really beautiful" Jess said wearing a blue dress and heels I just smiled and thanked them
We went down because the boys were waiting for us at the chin.
"Bat ang tagal tag—" Warren looked at us to complain but he was stopped for some unknown reason. As well as others looked at us
"ohh why are you just staring at us?" nag tataray na Sabi ni Belle
"It's almost 7:00 so let's go" Jess said
"We know we're beautiful. So close your mouths and let's go" Sofia said. So the men came back to reality and averted their eyes
"tsk, let's go" Keifer's cold Saad.
"Will someone come after us?" xia asked
"yah there is ohh There they are" Alex said the van stopped in front of us and it opened on its own So we entered one by one. While on the trip with him he was doing everything after a few minutes the van stopped and stopped at a palace very large it would surprise anyone when they saw this.
When we entered and when the door opened, the Maids and butlers in a row opened up. Kiyoshi led the way, probably for them.
When we entered the dining hall, there were a row of meals in 10 dishes.
We sat down on the chairs and the butlers helped us to sit down. A few minutes ago, the dear Queen and King arrived. So we stood up and bowed. visible expression in the King.
"mom, dad" Kiyoshi said and hugged the surprised one as well as the others Belle and I just didn't shake hands or hug hug
"and who are these two beautiful beauties" the Queen asked them
"she's Belle * points to belle * and she's the empress" kiyoshi introduced us we stared at the Queen and we could see Saya's sadness and longing in her eyes
"good evening to you" Saad smiled and hugged Belle then hugged me too I was also surprised that Even the King hugged me So I hugged them back and smiled sparingly.
"ohh let's eat" The Queen said So we sat down and started eating while eating Warren spoke
"em bat you don't eat those carrots and you're still separating" Warren asked So everyone looked at me
"ahmm allergic" I answered his question
"You're also allergic to carrots HAHAHA Hon, you're the same as the empress." laughed Saad ng Reyna So I looked at the King who also had the carrots separated from his plate So we just laughed and started eating again.
We were all full. Especially Warren and Belle who were strong enough to eat. The King said that we would also spend the night here. So we send him to sleep. I'm here in the room where I'm going to sleep but I can't sleep. So I went out first to get some air.
But as I descended I saw a large painting of the King and Queen family with two babies a girl and a boy. I was surprised to have a Word behind me
"they are my children" So I looked and the Queen came up to me and also looked at the painting
"Even if I only saw my daughter for a while, I still remember her. So I made the painting of Yan and told her to include my daughter" He said with a sad voice
"I can find him too, just trust me" I promised and I gave him a real smile. The Queen stared at me and smiled.
"Can I hug you empress !?" he asked
I nodded and I hugged him myself, he also hugged me tightly but not nmn I'm already choking hah Yung Tama lang.
I also felt that my clothes on my left arm were a bit wet and it looked like the Queen was crying. I caressed her back and hugged her.
The hug is the hug that the Queen makes me feel like a parent who has long missed her child and a Mother hugs her child ....
