4 The Journey (1/2)

”Wake up princess, wake up ” Laura said hurriedly.

” What's it Laura , i want to sleep for some more time, please ” i said in slumber voice.

” princess if you won't wake up now we'll be late” she exclaimed... ”Oh yes, i forgot about it thank you for waking me up Laura ” i exclaimed, whilst running into bathroom..., I took bath and laura made my hair and i rechecked my baggage.

She brought me my breakfast, i ate it and went to meet father.

” good morning, Zeri are you ready for journey” he asked with smile ”good morning father, i am more than ready” i replied enthusiastically.

Two carriages with guards were ready... Laura was assisted by two maids Ela and Nina, they were following us in other carriage, as we reached the port, a guard opened the door of carriage and helped me to get down..

King Edmund and Queen Aila were waiting for us, for my surprise again he was not there. I thought he was in the ship busy with something, i greeted them and we boarded onto the ship..

My eyes were searching for him on the ship, but he was nowhere to be seen, ” where is your son Remus Edmund ? he's nowhere to be seen ” father asked...

” He is busy with some business Edward, so he didn't come ” King Edmund replied...

My heart sank on his words, it was aching when i heard that...,

”Father can i go to my chamber ” i said in staid voice..

” is everything alright, Zeri ” he asked ”yes , I'm just debilitated father, i want to take some rest” i replied.

”Okay, Princess i will send Laura she will take care of you ” he exclaimed worriedly.

” no need of Laura father, i can handle it ” i said.

”okay Zeri, as you wish” he said with smile.

and a guard showed me my chamber. as i entered, it was beautiful and well furnished, it even have a window which gave a beautiful view of ocean...

I sat on bed and tears started falling from my eyes. I was crying uncontrollably.., i was madly in love with him i realised it today. whilst crying i felt in deep slumber, when I woke up it was twilght and my eyes felt heavy, i got up from my bed and went to bath chamber to wash my face, when I was out of bath chamber Laura was standing with food in her hand.

”i came to your chamber Princess , but you were in deep slumber so, i haven't disturbed you,.., you didn't ate anything from longtime Princess , have some food ”  she exclaimed with worry.

”' I'm not hungry Laura , when I feel hungry I'll eat” i exclaimed staidly.

There was a knock on the door ”come in” i said..

It was Nina who came for Laura. before leaving laura said ” Princess I know you are despondent by his absence, but please eat your food, I'll be back soon”

When she left i sat near the window staring at beautiful twilghted ocean and ate some food.
