My Rainy Day Prince

My Only Fear

"Mommy?"

"Yes Knight?"

"Do you think she misses dad?"

"Well why would she miss someone she never sees?"

"Well, I don't know."

"You're a very smart boy. So you tell me. When does your sister cry?"

"When I'm not near her."

"Which means you are the man in her life You see? She never wants mommy, only you."

"I'm sorry. Does that make you sad?"

"No, I'm just happy that you're such a great big brother."

"Mommy what's spoiling? Aunty Ella says I spoil Moon."

"That just means you shower her with too much love is all. But it's okay. She's your baby sister. You're supposed to shower her with love."

"Mommy?"

"Yes dear."

"Will she ever meet Dad?"

"I... I don't know son."

"Look mommy she smiled at me!"

"How delightful."

I looked down at my five month old daughter and my son. They were a wonderous pair. Moon was a bit small for her age, but just as fiesty as Knight once was. Knight, for the last five months has been glued to his sisters side. Which warmed my heart to see. I haven't seen Diamond, and Teatra has not been requested since that dance. Which in a way calms me. It's draining to be two people at the same time. The only thing I miss about Teatra is being able to dance. Whereas, as I am now, I only sing.

"Aunty Ella."

"Hello boy, hello Tempeste my love. I brought some fruit that Elizabeth gathered for you three. I wanted to see the baby so I came with it. What a precious thing."

"She is, isn't she?"

"Yes. Oh, I have some interesting news. Helena? Well, it so happens that she's older than what she said she was and has a ten year old daughter no one knew of. It's the craziest thing. The palace is in an uproar. It's already enough that everyone wanted Diamond to marry Teatra, but now his unwanted wife brings such a thing up. Diamond refuses to help raise her. Wendall and her husband don't acknowledge her. No one even looks the poor girls way. Three months! I say she should've waited a year at least."

"I feel sorry for the child."

"In a sense, you should. However,the new Queen is already disliked. Which is a shame."

"A shame indeed. How is Diamond?"

"Well aside from everything, he seems fine. He asked about you all the other day. We told him to be a man and fins out himself."

"Such daring women you three are!"

"Only for you my love. I must go though. I'll be back soon. Bye Knight."

"Bye aunty."

Maybe I should be happy that things with the Queen are all wrong, but my heart is sad. I wish I could help her child. Because I couldn't handle my children being unaccepted. It'd kill me slowly but surely.
