HOLD MY HAND THROUGH THE WAVES

CHAPTER 6

         UNTOLD TALE OF FORBIDDEN                             
                            GARDEN...

          On the day at forbidden garden, “What’s taking so long? Just kill everybody except the pastor and King of Miriana.” “There are little kids in here.” Arthur replied from inside the grave. “What’s stopping you when you killed your own father?” Minister’s word went right through his heart causing immense pain. “I believe you didn’t do it Prince Arthur..” Pastor Daniel whispered to him. “I don’t know Pastor...” Arthur looked around, Hundreds of innocent families of Miriana pleaded for mercy in front of him. He turned to his guards, “If you open your mouth to the minister you will be slaughtered..” Arthur pulled out his sword and removed his coat cut through his own back. He took the blood and covered himself all over in it. Everyone in prison looked at him startled by his unexpected act. He wore his coat back, “Don’t let them know you all are alive..Don’t worry no one is going to find out.” Arthur left the prison.

           After the quarrel with Rainier, Arthur walked back to his room and slammed the door. “I’m sorry Rainier...I don’t have a choice.” Arthur slowly removed his cloths groaning in pain. The wound was deep and there were blood everywhere. “GUARDS!” Guards entered his room, “Call The Palace physician...Call- Agnes..”

      "How did you know Adam?” “Rainier told me...But how Ezra?” “More improvement to my life than you imagined right..I recognised you the first time itself. Your eyes Adam, How can I forget those eyes.” “Last time When I visited Lorelei I was just twelve and I met you a ten year old girl crying in the woods and look at you all grown up.” They both chuckled. “I don’t know how but I got engaged to Arthur even though he don’t love me..” “Do- do you love him?” “He’s always been like a brother to me Adam, And I’m not the one he love.” “Why don’t you run away?” “I can’t Rainier’s mother, she will suffer for every mistake me, Arthur and Rainier do.” “It doesn’t seem like a great place to eat cheese cake isn’t it? Looks like a prison ugh..Let’s go outside.” Adam entirely changed the topic and offered his hand to Ezra. “How Adam- Wait.” Adam jumped down the window. “Adam..? ADAM!!?” “What..?
You coming or what?” Adam climbed up and gave her a confused look.

           “Uh huh.. You are telling me to do things now?” “No-no you got it wrong, I
was saying that..If you don’t talk to Kai it will be a little better don’t- you- thinktoo-?” “Ced!! He is two years younger than me..” “Yeah right but still-” “I can hit men too..” Veronica scolded Rainier showing her fist. “Hmm....So I am the topic here, huh? Kai jumped inside through the window out of nowhere. “Aishh-You almost killed me.” “Omo- Sorry..” Kai shrugged at Rainier making a silly face and walked away. “I really don’t like this boy.” “I love this boy, He literally saved me from your brother.” “You what? Stay where you are-” Too late Veronica was already gone. “Save me Adam, where are you when I need you.” “Why the long face princess your prince forgot about you.” Kai teased Rainier again receiving a flying shoe to the face.

           “Your son might have a long life Regina but not for long.” Minister Walter pulled Regina’s hair and smashed her head to the mirror. “Don’t harm my kids, Leave them alone Walter.” “Your Kids? Arthur is not your son Regina..Not any more at least.” Walter laughed and removed his grip from her hair. “He is my child, I know he is not aware of all this is he Walter?” “He know it all Regina..He- Know it all..” “You are a pathetic liar Walter, Do you really think that shaky hands of yours can surpass my children to steal the kingdom?” “What did you say? Those children which one of them is my dog and other one is missing? I think yes Regina, I can.” An evil grin was visible on his face. “What about the kingdom’s you destroyed in order to expand your dream land, Huh? You think the kings of those lands aren’t able to defeat you too?” “Are they even worth calling Kings? I killed them all, All kings of three land and guess what fourth king is here in Lorelei waiting to be torn to death.” “I’m sure Walter you can’t win this as long as Arthur is alive and wait until he knows all the truth.” “He’s can’t do anything Regina, Just wait and watch- Oh wait you can’t even watch.” Said Walter leaning towards her, “Even your breath reminds me of betrayal Walter.” Regina turned her head to other side.

          The sea sparkle in the water made it impossible to distinguish between Sea and night sky. Beneath the crescent moon sat Ezra and Adam. “You see that next to the moon..?” Ezra pointed to the sky. “Uh..huh what about stars?” “No..no Adam look closer...there’s Leo constellation.” “Ah- that You are still obsessed with stars aren’t you?” “You remember about stars and cheese cake but you don’t recognise me?” “When I first came here Rainier told me that the Pastor’s daughter is engaged to the future king and she is hidden, So I didn’t even imagine you are sneaking out of there.” “I really wish you shouldn’t have saved me that day Adam.” “What do you mean shouldn’t have? You are still not married to Arthur and if he really is a good person like you and Rainier told me I’m sure he will surely have a plan to fix all this.” “Do you still have keys for light house?” “Yes..why?”

         “Where do you think my brother is?” “With my sister in law why?” “Why is my brother with your sister in law?” “Stop- She has a name, Ezra and I don’t know the answer for what you just asked..” “I think brother Adam is going to marry Princess Ezra..” Said Kai interrupting Rainier and Veronica. “Fair enough as my brother love someone else but good for me either way she is still my sister in law Tadaa..” “Wait- hold on for a moment If my brother marries Ezra then how is she still your sister in law.” “I will gladly love to skip that question for safety purposes.” Rainier escaped from the scene. Kai was laughing hysterically and then there was Veronica who didn’t even understand what just happened.

             “Why were you in mo- Blind lady’s room?” “Just visiting son..She might be hiding her beloved son from us.” Walter patted Arthur’s shoulder. “Yo-you didn’t harm her did you? Cause people will notice..” “I didn’t do anything, She tried to attack me and I just pushed her away she collapsed on the mirror.” “I’m glad you are okay Minister, Now I should go to the grave where prisoners are kept.” “Yes you should go..I will be waiting for you.” Walter left towards his room. ARTHUR’S POV, “WILL SHE BE OKAY?” “Call Agnes, tell her to treat Queen Regina.” Arthur ordered the guards and left to the forbidden garden.

            “No..no way I’m not playing piano for you!” “Ah- Sure You played for me last time..” “I didn’t play it for you..” “Aishh don’t lie to my face Adam, I’m pretty sure you noticed me when you entered the room itself.” “I thought you were some other girl.” “Oh- Wha- You play for other girls but not me?” Adam nodded as a yes. “Waah- Prince Adam Lee Aldrich, I really want to change the architecture of your face.” Adam grabbed her hand and asked, “waeyo? Jiltuhae? (Why? Jealous?)” “Jiltu?  jeoldae andwae..(Jealous? no way..) Your language tricks don’t work on me any more..” “When did you learn Korean?” “As soon as you left, I really wanted to know what you said before you left.” “Di- did yo-you find out?” Adam was panicking a lot. “No...By the time I learned the language I forgot what you said.” “I am saved.” Adam whispered to himself in relief.

          “If it was not you we all will be devoured by now Prince Arthur..” “I’m just doing my best to help you Pastor, Once I will find a way I will get you all out until then survive. Are the guards giving you proper food your highness?” Arthur asked Adam’s father and He nodded. “For your aware the kids and women will be saved first soon.” Arthur continued. “But Your highness if Minister finds out-” “There will be an if in everything and we can’t wait for anything. Don’t worry King of Miriana Even If I can’t your Son Adam is capable of doing this.” Arthur smiled at Adam’s father.

         “What about my son Prince Arthur? Have you seen him?” “Minister Haru of Miriana I didn’t knew you survived..” “I did son all because of you..” Haru hugged
Arthur. Arthur pulled back from the hug and said, “Your son,
            KAI IS SAFE WITH ADAM...
