We were stopping at my village.
I couldn't believe... After all these years I'm back here and nothing has changed.
I wouldn't want to waste time, but I have someone that's still alive here and deserves to know what happened to me, father and Maria.
And that's my mother.
The ruler of this village.
Or atleast she was back then...
I hope she's fine though and exactly this is why I want to get there to see her again...
- Angie... - Pablo whispered all of a suddenly.
- What is it?
- Are you sure you want to get into the village?
- I'm sure... I need to see my mother again... For one last time.
Luckily the boat we were on had nothing that could tell where is it from so no one freaked out nearby and in the village shortly.
- Wait, Sultanim... - Zülfikar stopped me as I was about to head out - Isn't this too...
- Dangerous? No, not at all... Since this place has no Safiye Sultan, or anyone that can hurt the people...
He sighed, realizing how right I was in that then just followed me with Pablo as I headed down while he also gave out the order to the rest of the men they took to get the boat repaired for us as soon as possible.
As we went down to the dock I saw a familiar young boy there, who seemed to recognize me as well because he suddenly ran off while screaming excitedly:
- Angeles is back!!
- Do you know the kid? - Pablo asked.
- I have no idea who's that kid - I replied - But seems like he knows me well.
- Be careful tough.
- There's no danger here for us, Pablo. No Safiye Sultan... Nobody can hurt anyone here. This is a peaceful village. Not like the palace...
- As you say.
- Now follow me... - I said calmly as we headed more and more inside the village, towards the house me and my family used to live in which slowly got harder and harder.
Not because of the way to walk there, but me being extremely upset about meeting my mother again and telling her everything that happened.
But now I don't have time to be upset any more...
I'm standing right at the door...
In fact....
In the room...
- Who's it, Melissa? - I heard my mother speaking from the little room to my left.
- Come out and see for yourself, Milady - said Melissa, my mother's servant and the person that taught me for a really long time here.
She was calm, but really happy to see me back.
Pablo stood behind me, just watching in silence as my mother came out of the room and froze when she saw me...
- Angeles...?
So far I could handle everything calmly, but when she said my name I started crying...
- Mother...
- Oh Lord... - she stuttered then hugged me while we both started crying in joy.
