I can hear her tell her mom she still wanted to shop, even though she got hurt. Really not wanting her to continue shopping but who I am to argue with her seeing. I just want her to be happy. Shuming even looked concerned with her still going out.
Shuming left to make sure the crown princess went back to the palace so she could not bother Na and I also want our honeymoon to start out on the right foot. I headed back to her parents' house to continue to prep for the trip.
As I was walking down the road, I kept noticing the small stuff, the smell in the air of sweet lotus it was strong enough to taste the sweet taste. Reaching the in-laws manor, I was in a daze just thinking about how can I could keep her safe.
Just before I knew it, I was at my in-laws. Before I knew it, my guards were waiting for me. So, we sat down and found a plan for our trip. I can see my father-in-law still sitting there alone. It looks like he has a lot on his mind.
Walking up to him "is everything alright?"
He just sighed. "Yes, it is. I can't say anything to you anyway. It is your family matters."
Looking shocked "Please speak your mind, we are family after all."
"Well, I heard what happened at the dress shop. You handled it right, but my daughter got hurt." He said disapprovingly.
"I know I should have handled it better." I admitted
"I know you are trying a harem is hard to control sometimes." He said
We hear the women coming laughing and happy as can be. By the looks of it, they bought out all the stores.
I see my father-in-law look at my mother-in-law. "Did you three buy out the whole town? Na is only going to be gone for a few days." He said sarcastically.
Seeing a sly look coming from her "It's not all hers, some of it belongs to me and her. You might enjoy some of the stuff we bought." As she points to my second mother-in-law,
I could see a big grin on my fathers-in-law face, but I must wonder how close his wives are. Seeing Na looking so beautiful but hurt in her eyes at the same time.
What is going on in her mind? What is she thinking about? Is she ok? All these thoughts running through my head. I see her sister has noticed as well. Her sister is taking her hand and leading her to the gardens.
Should I follow or should I just stay behind and let them talk it out? If I stay back she won't tell me what is going on.
As they are leaving, her sister shook her head at me in the most disappointed look across her face.
I followed behind far enough that they couldn't see me. Hiding behind the rocks so they couldn't see me, but I could still hear the conversation.
"What's going on?" her sister asked
"Oh, nothing much." Na replied.
"Is your arm ok?" her sister asked
"it's good" Na had a brave face to her
"Now I know there is something wrong. What's going on?" her sister said sternly.
"Nothing. Why do you keep asking?" Na replied, annoyed.
"I know you." Her sister said.
I could see Na crying so hard. I just want to go wrap my arms around her and let her know everything will be ok. It is hard just to sit here and watch.
I could hear her say, "I just thought I was special, that is all, I just read too much in this week by the way he is treating me." she said sobbing
As she continues, "I know better, I know I am not the only one. I just had stupid thoughts."
