The princes and the peasant

Part.16

I got in the house with Cooper "what do tou think about the idea of kicking out my father?" I asked "i already told you my lady, i think it's something kinda crazy" he said "but do you think it will work?" I asked "I don't know, maybe, if enough people join us and we teach them how to fight..." he started saying but i cut him "omg, you are brilliant that's what was the problem with Martinus' said, they didn't know how to fight" I said excited "well, thanks, I don't think i'm brilliant, but I'm glad I said something useful my lady" he said "please call me Leah" I said "but...you are the princess" he said "it doesn't matter, just call me Leah" I said "Alright, Leah" he said.

"May I ask you something?" Cooper said "sure" I said "what kind of ideas you have for the kingdom?" He asked "well, I want to change a lot of things, I want to lower the taxes, my father is asking for too much money, I also want to repair the peasants' houses, most of them are as this one, I want everyone to be able to access to education and I want that your social status doesn't depend in which family you are born but in what you do" I said "wow, those are amazing ideas, why are you afraid of being the queen?" he said "because of my ideas actually, I'm afraid people doesn't like them, my ideas would make life here completely different and I don't know, I'm afraid some people won't like me" I explained "I think you are going to be an amazing queen" Cooper said "do you really think so?" I asked "yes" he said and I smiled "thank you so much, it really means a lot" I said

*at night*

"I'm back" Cooper said opening the door, he went to hunt so we could eat something "hey, did you managed to hunt anhthing?" I asked "yeah, but not much, just a rabbit" he said "that's fine, I'll cook it" I said "may I help you?" He asked "do you know how to cook?" I asked surprised  "I know how to do a couple of things" he said "that's nice, I don't know any guy who can cook, how did you learn?" I said "well, I never met my father, he died in combat two months before I was born and when I was just a little boy, about six years old, mother got sick and died, I had to survive by my own and well, that teaches you a couple of things" he said "oh, I'm sorry" I said

"Are you going to let your father come back if we win this?" Cooper asked as we started eating "yes, I will, but first I will wait till I have all under control" I said "I'm glad you aren't going to kick him out forever" he said "can I ask you something?" I asked "sure" he said "can you teach me to fight, how to use a sword and those things?" I asked "sure, we will start tomorrow" he said "thanks"
