*Next day
Is this gonna end? So suddenly? That's it?
Wait. This is also what I said before.
But this can't be happening. I won't die right?
"Early in the morning and you're thinking of dying?"
"Atticus! You're here?"
"You're getting nervous. Are you alright?"
"The coronation."
"The coronation will be held in two days. Are you that nervous?"
Two days. Why so suddenly.
"No, you don't understand."
This novel will come to an end again? But how? I don't even know what happened to Aisla, and the reason for her death.
"Aisla, what are you talking about? You won't die, okay?"
"No Atticus. I failed. I guess I will."
"What?"
"Atticus, you have to listen to me."
"What?"
"On the day of the coronation. On that day, I will die."
"You must be crazy."
"I'm not, okay! I am telling the truth. I will di-"
"Aisla, My Lord."
"My Queen."
"Did I disturb the two of you?"
"No, not really My Queen. I'll take my leave."
"Aisla. I heard your conversation. I'm sorry for eavesdropping my dear but, is it true?" Mother started to hold my hand. Her hands are cold. Is she crying?
"Is my daughter not going to live longer?" she added and cried out.
"M-mother. I-. It's just my instinct, that's all. I mean, who would know her death will be so soon, r-right?" I explained and wiped her tears.
"Promise me one thing, Aisla. You won't put yourself into danger no matter what. Okay?"
"Okay, I promise." I lied. She left and I saw Atticus .
The queen seems to know something. She looks suspicious too. Anyway, if I am really destined to die, I have to take charge of my duties first.
People in movies also leave letters or even their properties to their families.
Who will I inform?
Dylan!
Where is he? I can't just meddle in his business, now that he's getting married. But, he's the only person who knows the novel.
Eh? I remember Atticus said-
"I know Aisla. I know everything."
Then. He knows?
"Atticus, wait for me!" I saw him walking by the Palace grounds.
"Atticus-"
Dylan's Point of View
*catch
"Greetings, Princess."
"Who- Dylan?"
"You're clumsy as always."
I let her stand and she fixed her dress.
"I haven't seen you here for a long time, My Lord."
"Me either, Princess."
