The Immortal's Merman

🔱 Chapter 4🔱

Somewhere else

Somewhere across the sea on the beach, stood someone taking in the sea breeze with a calm face.

Some people approached the beach, moving towards the waters. That person left so as not to be seen by them.

"There will be a storm very soon" the first person said looking at the sea.

"That was what you said last time and made everyone had hope of catching lots of fishes once it happens" the second person said.

"This time am right, am sure it will, trust me" the first person said.

Sometime ago there were unable to catch any fishes which was what they eat to survive, it was just like the whole fishes disappeared from the sea side as wandering far off from the reef side was very dangerous.

DAY OF MARRIAGE

Finally the day of the Wedding came and everywhere was in a joyful mood, the people were happy because of the marriage between their Prince and Prince Mew.

Tine stayed in his room and refused to let in the maids that were sent to dress him up and prepare him for the wedding. They kept knocking"your highness please open the door we have to do our work please" one of the maids shouted from outside the door.

The chief maid came and saw the maids outside" why are you people out here go in and do your job there's no more time" she shouted at them.

"His highness won't open the door" one of the maids said stuttering, the chief maid sighed and knocked on the door "your highness please open the door" she said with a calm voice.

Tine sighed and opened the door as he and the chief maid are like mother and son, he let them in while he went back and lied back down on the bed. The maids came in and found out that Tine haven't even done anything to prepare himself. The chief maid servant looked at the Prince and sighed"your highness please, go and shower and get prepared" she said as she tried to remove the blanket Tine use in covering himself.

"Noooo I don't want to" Tine whined as they both struggle for the blanket

"Your highness, it's your wedding you should get ready for your wedding, you should be happy you're getting married" the chief maid said as she finally gets the blanket out of his hands.

Tine gets out of the bed and looked at the chief maid angrily and said" No I'm not happy, because I don't want to get married and before anything I need to have a talk with my father first" immediately Tine left, the maids were stunned on what he said.

On the way to his father's room he saw Fong on the way"Oh Fong what are you doing here because I know there's no class today"Tine said while smiling at Fong "ah I forgot you're the Minister's son of course you will be in the palace" Fong hugged him tightly even Tine was confused before he understood the reason why he hugged him.

"Do you really want to continue, can't I convince you to stop it and go on with the marriage" Fong said as he hold Tine's hand tightly while looking at him.

"Well depends on what my father says, if he disagrees then I'll escape to show him that, not everything he says goes his way" Tine said as Fong sighed and nodded. Then Tine left him to see his father.

When Tine reached his father's room at the door he summoned courage and knocked

"who is it"

"Father it is me Tine"
