I get up and ready for the day. Then I get the kids ready and head down for breakfast. We ate then I got them to school and I had to get to a meeting. I sat there half asleep. Until I hear someone trying to steal the crown.
"Shut Up!" I yelled out.
"Shut up?" Asked Nick's uncle.
"Oh I'm sorry. I was just stunned."
They didn't want Mia to be Queen unless she married. Which is unfair. I got lucky because I had. I had Michael. Dang here comes the water works. Come down, Kayla. He will be home and everything will be fine. Just hang on a little longer.
They settled on Mia getting married within a year's time. If not, she can't have the throne.
Which means I would still remain Queen or it will be handed down to Grandma. Either way, Mia has to get married. Rather she likes it or not. It's a have to case.
Once the meeting was over, We were in the throne room talking to Mia who apparently heard everything. She found our secret passageway. She kept going on and on about it. We just listened as she was upset about it. I am too.
So, we came up with a plan. We will keep the person who is going to steal the crown close. As they say, " Keep your friends close but your enemies closer."
They assume it is Lord Nicholas but I know better than that. I have a gut feeling that it is Nick's Uncle.
So, the next morning we got ready to welcome them to the palace. Mia wasn't so keen on the idea. But we needed to keep a close eye on the person or the suspect. We all stood there welcoming them in.
Bella and Connor were elated to see Ben and Bethany. They went to play. I held Maya and Ethan.
Grandma introduced Mia to Nick and his uncle. Mia seemed calm and collected until she stomped onto Nick's foot.
Then proceed to walk away. We apologized and got him ice. Grandma went to find Mia as I had twins to take care of.
I went to their nursery and got them changed. I wish I had Michael. I am at a loss. I need him to tell me, I am doing a good job. I need him to reassure me that everything is fine.
My phone rings and I answer it.
"Hello."
"Kayla, I got your voicemail. I am so sorry. I have been busy." said Michael.
"Oh that's okay. I just wanted to hear your voice."
'Is everything okay?"
"I just really miss you. How much longer?" I asked.
Tears were brimming as I asked that question.
"Not too much longer. Just a couple more months. Than I will be home, I promise."
"Okay, I just really miss you."
"I know, I miss you too."
" How are the children?" He asked.
"They are good. They miss you too. But they have been playing with Nick's niece and nephew."
"That's good. At least you have him to help Mia."
"Yeah, It's hard being queen and mother without help. Plus missing you, makes it so much harder."
"I know, I will be home before you know it. But just know you can do this. You are a rock star. You can handle this. You are a great queen and mother. I believe in you."
"Thanks, I needed this."
"Anytime, I will call when I can but I have to go. I love you."
"Okay, I love you too."
We hung up and I just laid on the chair.
Tears falling. I miss him so much. He is my rock. I appreciate that he is still trying to cheer me up when he is far away from home. But I wish he was here with me and the children. He is missing memories with us.
I take a deep breath and clean myself up. Then I get to work. I sign off on documents and talk to people. Then after a hard day. I got a hot bath. Soak my sore muscles. Being Queen isn't easy but it is worth it.
I get ready for bed. Until Bella and Connor want a bedtime story. I read a story and they passed out in my bed. So, I leave them in my bed. I turn on my side and fall asleep. Not before tears fall. Me missing Micheal. He will be home soon and everything will be fine. You can do this.
Micheal has faith in you, you can do this. I fall asleep from mental exhaustion and tears. What will tomorrow bring?
