Lost Queen

Part 8.

The trip to the palace is just quick and since Mo Fan got approval for the students to train there, the entrance is easy and they were provided a lodging.

"Brother!" Boom calls his brother out. Mew jog to him and hug brother.

"You do this work now? I was just gone for few months and you're now working hard" Mew said, his brother just pat his head before he lead the whole class inside.

"Welcome to the palace!" Boom greeted everyone. "I hope you enjoy your stay here and can train as much as you can" The students cheers and then scattered to their rooms.

Mew will stay in his own room, Mo Fan and Zhao will have their own separate rooms too but Singto will be include in room with his classmates.

"What's the plan?" Mew asked. They huddle inside Mew's room while the rest were resting. They just need to find the culprit and why Mew cannot remember Gulf.

"Same as what I've mentioned" Fan said. The palace is a huge place and there's only few who got sure power to have black magic.

"Well... I will rest now, we have to be early tomorrow" Zhao yawns. Guiding and working with the students is tiring for him.

"Me too. I'll see you tomorrow" Singto followed Zhao out of the room.

There left Mew and Mo Fan.

"You really don't remember a thing Mew?" Mo Fan asked. He is walking inside the room of Mew, like checking out Mew's things.

"I don't. What should I remember?" Mew asked. He is always confused and lost with what happened.

"What do you know about how your unknown wife went missing?" Zhao asked.

"Uh.. on our wedding day, he suddenly vanished. No one seems to see him and or know him" Mew said, everyone knows that story.

"I see. So the truth was really altered"

"What do you mean?" Mew asked again.

"Based on my memory. Gulf is your childhood friend" Fan said. Mew's eyes widened on what he heard. "You are the light, he is the dark. I don't know the exact thing because I was away but the royals don't want for you to marry Gulf." Fan added.

"I don't understand" Mew said, confused that he is; He is trying to remember the things about Gulf but nothing came to his mind.

"Eventually, everything will fit into its place" Mo Fan said. He set the family photo of Mew that he is holding back into its original place.

"Uhmm.." Mew nods, he will wait for it. He will wait for his memory to comeback but he can't trust really anyone. "by the way, do you have any leads who might the culprit be?"

Mo Fan looked at Mew with a straight face. "I have few"

"Who are they?" Mew asked, "Maybe I can gather info about them"

"No offense but I suspect anyone who is close to the king and to Gulf, including you Mew" Mo Fan said. He is really serious and his tone doesn't have any hint of hesitation.

"If Gulf's really my wife, I won't do him harm" Mew firmly said.

"That's good to hear from you" Mo Fan said and that relieved Mew. Fan is still strolling inside Mew's room when he came across of something inside Mew's room.

"Who amongst you have black magic?" Mo Fan asked.

"I don't know. I don't have the information about the magic they hold but if you need it, maybe I can ask for it" Mew answered. He can just use his prince title to obtain classified information.
 
"I appreciate that" Mo Fan smiled and turn to Mew. "Rest Mew, we have a long day tomorrow" He said before he left Mew's room.

Mew did his routine but as soon as he lay down a soft knock was heard.

"Young master, Mew" A pale short guy greeted Mews sight when he opened the door.

"Ow Tar, you're still awake?" Mew said. He opened the door wider for the smaller guy.

"Yes, young master. I missed you" Tar hugged Mew from behind. Mew just smiled, Tar is always like this. He is always sweet to Mew. "I thought It'd take for another year before I see you again"

Mew slowly untangle himself from Tar's hug before he turn and face him. "We are training here, Tar. It's just temporary and I told you to call me 'Mew'"

"Mew..." Tar said while his eyes is glued to Mew's face.

"What is it?"

"I like you" Tar paused for a bit before he spoke with a blush on his cheeks.

Mew ruffled Tar's hair, "I like you too, Tar" Mew said. The meaning or how they mean for their words might be different but it still made Tar happy.

"Mew... What if your wife came back?" Tar asked and Mew got startled a bit. This is the first time that Tar mentioned Mew's wife. He didn't even talk about his wife with Tar before. He was taken aback when Tar opened the topic himself.

Mew is aware of Tar's feelings for him, he just played oblivious to it. And if he just didn't know that he got a wife already then he might want to date him.

"I don't know, Tar. I'll think about it once my wife's back." Mew said, he is honest. He don't really know what to do. Gulf will come back and what? Though he is genuinely worried because it seems he was falling for Gulf, he adored him. He just didn't know if it's just an infatuation.

"I hope you two separates" Tar mumbled and Mew fail to hear everything.

"What did you say? I didn't get to hear you" Mew asked while Tar just shake his head.

"Its nothing." He smiled to Mew. "I'm going back now, Mew. I just want to see you before I go to bed" Tar kissed Mew's cheeks before he left the room. Mew just smiled and shake his head.

He lay down on his bed and close his eyes. A flash of memory sparks before him. Someone who is wearing white is smiling at him but he is holding his side, there's a tint of blood there and its making stain through the white shirt. Even with the blood stain and painful look, the guys in white still managed to smile towards Mew.

"Thank you Mew" He said before the memory ends and Mew didn't know if that's really his memory.
