........5 years later........
Seti POV:
"Seti get back here now" The maid screamed at me. I just stuck my tongue out at her and kept running. "You give that back, we need to give it to you're father or he'll have our heads" The other maid said. "And what's that got to do with me?" Then I banged into someone and they grabbed me before I could keep running. I looked up to see who it was. "Daddy!" I jumped on him. "your-your Majesty, the boy, he-he-" The maid said while panting. "I know already." Daddy said back to the stupid maid. "Seti hand it over!" I gave a puppy dog face which didn't work and then handed him the paper so after that he left; because of that I started crying as loud as I could. "Seti... Stop crying, it's okay. Do you want to play tag or-or hide and seek?" The maid was saying. "NO! I want my daddy!" I then started throwing a tantrum. "Seti your father is working so you will just have to wait, now knock this off or I will tell him what you are doing, I think you know how that will go." I wiped my tears at the sound of that voice. "MOMMY! Mommy will you play hide and seek with me?" She smiled. "Of course! I'm going to count to 100, so find a; place to hide." A big smile appeared on my face. "OKAY!" And I ran off running; looking for my hiding spot.
--- Safiya POV ---
"99, 100" After I finished counting I started looking around to find Seti. Gosh! He could be anywhere? This palace is huge! As I rounded the corner I ran in to a familiar face. "Abayomi! Hello!" He smiled. "Safiya, it's great to see you!" We shared a quick hug before returning to conversing with one another. "So how is your son?" He asked me. I smiled. "Oh he is doing well. He's a bit of a crybaby; but none the less, I love him." He smiled at my response. "Well that is good to hear" I didn't miss the sad look behind his eyes. "What about your child? It's been over 5 years since I'e seen you... What about your child? Was it a boy or a girl? Are they well?" He smiled quickly. "Oh you mean Aziza, yeah she is well, perhaps we could have a playdate for her and your son, I can meet you today in about 3 hours in town." I smiled. "That sounds great! I will see you there."
--- Darius POV ---
"Kill him!" I said bluntly. "Sire are you sure?" I made eye contact immediately. "He is the one responsible for kidnapping my wife all those years ago so hang him! Now! We're done here." I left in a rush and made my way to my bedroom. I laid on the bed exhausted and then I felt a bump next to me. "WHO'S IN HERE?" I ripped the covers open to find it was only Seti. His eyes then started getting watery. Gosh how did I get such a crybaby as a son? "Daddy why'd you yell at me?" I never realized parenting would be this difficult. Children are sensitive about everything. "Alright stop crying, you just surprised me that's all! What are you doing in here?" He quickly dried his tears and smiled. "Hiding from mommy! We're playing hide in seek." "Not anymore I already found you." "Mommy!" He hopped up and jumped on her and she quickly caught him. "Darius I thought I should tell you, Abayomi asked to meet with me today, he wants to meet Seti." My face went cold. "No! Your not going!" I would die before I would allow those two to start flirting again; I'm surprised I haven't ordered his death yet. "What! What is the matter with you? You're acting like a jealous teenager, we are both married to different people and yet you're still worried about that?" She can try to convince me all she wants I am not going to budge. "No means no, like I would let you two be alone together!" She gave me a sour look. "Well geez it's nice to know you trust me!" "You I trust, it's him I don't!" She sighed and handed me Seti who was looking back and forth clearly confused. "If you're that paranoid how about you just come too." "I don't want to!" "Darius he said he wants to introduce his daughter to us as well." I just rolled my eyes. As she gave me a pouty face. I felt myself crack. "Fine, fine. But only for a little bit." She smiled as she jumped up and pecked me on the lips real quick. "Well come on let's go!" I looked at her confused. "Oh wait you mean now?" She smiled and nodded. I just sighed, got up and picked up Seti. This was going to be a long day.
Seti POV:
I was sitting in the carriage next to my mommy and my daddy and we were going someplace. I had never been outside home before; so I was really excited. The carriage came to a stop and mommy got out of the carriage first. I hopped on daddy's shoulders as he stepped out too and mommy was talking to a man and daddy didn't look to happy about it. "Where is Accenath?" Mommy said. "Well... I probably should have mentioned this earlier but Accenath died in child birth; so now it's just my daughter and me." This made daddy tense all of a sudden. "Oh my goodness I'm so sorry!" "No it's fine I'm sad about it yes, but I am happy." I looked over and saw a girl sitting on a rock. I had daddy put me down and I ran over to her. "Hi" I said with a smile on my face. I never really see other kids, I'm always surrounded by grown ups all the time. So the palace is always boring. "Hi" She said back with a smile. "Do you want to play a game?" I asked getting really excited. "Sure." She said her eyes starting to sparkle like she had been waiting to here this question her whole life. "Oh by the way, my name is Seti and I am 5 years old." She started giggling. "Hi Seti! So am I!" I grabbed her hand. "So what is your name?" I asked and she smiled really big. "Aziza."
