The tales of the lost prince

Part 16

Part 16

The event of yesterday night still played inside her mind .

Elsa opened her eyes slowly only to be meet with Jack calm sleeping face . The last thing she remember was crying in Jack embrace . Perhaps she had cried herself to sleep. Slowly she rise from her bed . A soft smile creep up to her face as she watch Jack sleeping peacefully . She stroke his messy snow like hair before planting a soft kiss on his forehead and walk out of the bed .

She knew she couldn’t sleep anytime soon so she decided to go to library to read some books. To get her mind off things . Just as she walk through the hallway , she noticed something peculiar. The door to Eren’s nursery was wide open .

Maybe Jack forgot to close it .- she thought

 She quickly made her way to the door to close but what she least expected was to hear a soft giggle from inside .

“ This one look funny!” She could notice that it was a voice of a child but It wasn’t Andrew for sure . Curious she took a peek inside . Her heart was in definite shock once she saw the boy at the corner of the room , reading one of nursery books she had bought for Eren long time ago.

His blonde hair is too familiar.

 “ I wonder what it is?”  the boy wondered

Elsa watched as the boy explore the nursery . Playing with the rocking chair and laugh. She knew that laugh too well .

She couldn’t hold any of he feelings when the boy approach the cradle and touch the soft mattress . All memories came flooded inside her minds. She couldn’t hold back a few tears . and when he approached the mobile and reach out towards one of the snowflakes , That particular snowflake had always been Eren’s favorite one . She could see the resemblance in the boy . No ..it wasn’t just resemblance . Somehow her heart tells her that the boy isn’t just some resemblance .

Elsa slowly tried to approach the boy when he was about to place back the snowflake on the mobile but her feet were too shaky , she accidently drop some of the books from the shelves which causes the boy to turned towards her in panic .

It was then Elsa get to see his eyes . The eyes that she had missed for so many years  . The eyes that she had always love . The eyes that was the same as Jack’s

At that moment , she knew. The boy infront of her is her son. Her Eren.

“ E-Eren? “ Her voice came out shaky as she tried to get closer to him.

She could see his body tense up when she called him but she couldn’t get any closer to him as he decided to run away from the room.

“ wait !” Elsa tried to catch up to him but once she was out in the hallway , he was nowhere to be seen.

 “Elsa ?” Anna’s voice called her back to reality

“ oh… yes Anna ?”

“ Are you okay ? You don’t seem too good” asked Anna

“ No. Im fine …just something in my mind” said Elsa

“ You should take a rest. Jack didn’t ask for you to take a day off only get more stress “ said Anna

“ I know” said Elsa
