48 hours to fall in love

Part 42

Vilma went with David to the dining room where his parents and a table full of delicious delicacies awaited them, this was the first breakfast that David shared with his in-laws. This was the first of many.

-Good morning," greeted Vilma and David in unison.

-Good morning, how are you? -said Isabel.

-Very well, and your mother?

-Wonderful, daughter, today we have to attend several real trials, we have a whole day ahead of us, and we need to take energy to face the day," exclaimed her mother.

-Yes, of course, mother, a while ago I explained to David how a royal trial is conducted," said the queen.

-Then let's have breakfast, then we must go to the first royal trial of the day," said Elizabeth.

-Mom, I think I'd like to go see the people who kidnapped Greta.

-I don't think that's the best idea, it might turn into a traumatic episode, it's better if you don't go.....

-Mom, I'll be honest, Greta told me... she wants to know why they did it, she wants to find out why they kidnapped her for so many years, and I think it's very necessary for her to know the answer because, if they die, she will never know why they did it, and these twelve years of suffering will never have had a reason. She needs to know, please, Mom," Vilma begged.

Isabel meditated for ten seconds, she was not sure what she was about to do, however, she came to the conclusion that Vilma was right, it was fair, and necessary for her daughter to know why they had done what they had done.

-All right, I will allow you to go down to the basement, and talk to those delinquents, but, please, allow me to accompany you, I don't want you to go alone.

-Mom, you don't have to go with me, really, if you don't want me to go alone, let David go with me, I want him to go with me," asked her daughter.

-I agree. But if you want to ask those people that question, you must go down to the basement right now, because there are only thirty minutes left until the first trial starts.

-Okay, I'll be right down," said Vilma, as she drank a glass of delicious grapefruit juice.

After breakfast, David and Vilma went down to the basement together, accompanied by a guard who guided them through the dark and sinister corridor. Afterwards, they descended some dirty and deteriorated stairs.

-Here are German and his parents, if you need anything I'll be two meters away," said the guard once they were in front of the cell.

David looked at the cells that stretched out before him, all tiny and dirty, where criminals were held captive behind thick iron bars. However, that was not what caught his attention, but the fact that in the background stood a boy with his back to him, but who looked very familiar, it was Koda, he had no doubt about it, even though he only saw his back, he had spent so many years living with him, that he recognized him instantly without a doubt, why Koda was here, what the hell had he done? He knew he could not go and talk to Koda in front of Vilma, she would suspect that something was wrong, and would ask where he knew him from, of course he could not do that, he had to figure out some way in which Queen Vilma would not find out.

Queen Vilma faced German, who was standing in front of the bars.

-Well... Good morning, Vilma, look who decided to come down from the heights to visit the wretched, now we are on the same level, you lucky bitch," German insulted her, with a murderous look on his face.

She put a finger to her mouth, signaling him to be silent.

-I'll be brief with you, you filthy lizard, I came here for you to answer me a single question, and don't expect pity from me or anything like that, because you are already sunk, and Greta is free, safe and sound, far away from you, you filthy being," Vilma exclaimed, denoting how very annoyed she was with him.
