His Worst Mistake

Sneak Peek

Troy stared as the ambulance carrying his mother's body left the palace.

Troy's chest felt heavy, and he could not breathe.

Troy was hyperventilating.

Troy clutched at his chest struggling to get some air into his lungs.

"Let me help" a voice offered.

Troy frowned. He looked around the room frantically. No one other than himself was present.

"Let me help Troy" the voice came again. The voice was his own. A deeper, colder version of his voice.

"Let me take control until you're all better." The voice offered.

Troy who was struggling found the offer tempting. Soon he succumbed to darkness.

Troy found himself in a large expanse of darkness. Soon he appeared before himself.

Try moved back.

"W-who are you??" Troy asked his other self

"I'm you...but stronger" he answered.

Troy shook his head.

"No..there's just one of me." Troy said

The other Troy chuckled.

"But you created me. I'm here to protect you Troy. If you'd let me" The voice said.

Troy shook his head.

"I don't need any protecting...I'm not in danger" Troy told his other self.

"Says the boy who's just drank poison without knowing. A maid offered juice...you drank I without suspicion. If you were properly functioning, you'd have recognised the smell of the fungu." Troy's other self said.

Troy frowned. He recalled his drink having a stronger orange smell, he drank it anyway. Troy then remembered that fungu covered itself with the smell of whatever it was put in.

The other Troy chuckled. "You see what I am saying? There are people who want to destroy your family, Troy. Your mother was first to go. Who do you think is next?? And sweet old daddy can always find another woman to give him a brand-new family." Other Troy smiled slyly.

"SHUT UPP!!!!" Troy screamed at his other self who just laughed hysterically.

"YOU!" Troy screamed.

"I'm only here to protect you, Troy. Let me in" The other Troy spat out.

"Never" Troy spat.

Soon Troy could fee himself move farther and farther away from the other Troy.

"Ahhh" Troy screamed as he awakened.

He looked around him. A headache attacked him and he winced.

He looked around him. He had a drip connected to his hand and he was in his room.

The Royal Physician sat beside him and looked at him.

"Sir..." Troy said.

"How do you feel?" The older man asked Troy.

"I feel...I feel okay" Troy said shyly.

"You were talking in your sleep" The older man informed Troy.

"I- "Troy started say but was lost for words.

"It's okay. I can help." The older man told Troy.

Troy nodded.

This was not the first time Troy had gone into a trance after hyperventilating. Every time, he would wake up and remember nothing from his last meltdown.

The Royal Physician exited Troy's room. The King stood by the door with panic-stricken face.

"How...How is he??" the King asked frantically.

The Physician shook his head.

"He still does not remember" The Physician informed the King.

The King's hand dropped to his side defeatedly.

"My King.... there is a way out of..." The Royal Physician started to say but was cut off by the King.

"NO...NEVER ...NOT THAT!!" The King screamed.

The Royal Physician just shook his head before turning to leave, his assistants following in his wake.
