Everything Was A Lie

King Ezekiel and jobs

"Welcome to the Kingdom." The man says.
"I'm King Ezekiel and I see you met Jerry, he's very liked here." He says.
I wanna say 'I know' but the words are lodged in my throat.
"Cat got your tongue?" Jerry asks.
I do my best not to smile at his pun. The giant tiger roars and I jump almost falling from the wheelchair. Jerry and Ezekiel busts out laughing at me for fearing the tiger.
"She doesn't bite, hard anyway." King Ezekiel states smiling bigger.
"So what's your name?" The King asks switching sides of his seat.
"It's just Nameless." Jerry says.
"Richard couldn't get her to tell, yesterday." He says.
Words slip from my mouth that make them both stare at me with wild eyes.
"I hate him."
"Did he lie to you, Did he pull that wife and lung infection story?" King Ezekiel says sounding angry. I nod trying not to make it worse.
"Richard's a douche." Jerry says.
"Let's change the subject. You were in a coma a week and we used a lot of medical supplies on you. I mean we have plenty but you're going to have to work it off. To pay off your debt. Is there anything in particular you like doing?" King Ezekiel says.
"I liked farming, going on runs-" The tiger roars again and growls. "Quiet Shiva!" The king scolds. I make a bold move and stand up wobble towards the stage. The tiger growls and yanks The King from his throne. She gets face to face with me. I reach out and rub her head and she looks startled by the moment of touch and then she lays down rubbing against my hand. She bumps into my stomach. "And I'm good with animals." I say cracking a tiny smile up at him. His face is as shocked as I feel. Shiva takes one paw and yanks me forward against her head. King Ezekiel finally smiles at me. Jerry cheers to me. "If you're good at farming, when you heal a little more you can start doing that. As long you don't poison us." He says.
"Okay Your Majesty, can I call you that, your majesty ?" I ask smiling at him so big my face hurts. He nods. "Whatever suits you." He says.
