Elisabeth had been her mother's personal maid and best friend, after Kiara was born, she soon became her nanny. On the Queen's death bed, she had promised her to take care of the five year old little Kiara. When Queen Neiva died,Elisabeth left all she had and came to live to the palace.
She had never gotten married in order to fulfil the promise she made to her best friend. Kiara thought about all that as she passed into yet another corridor to her Ma's chambers.
She preferred to call her Ma not only as a sign of respect but also because she couldn't find another word to describe the love she had for the woman who had sacrificed her own life to take care of her.
Before she knew it; she was already at the door to Elisabeth's room. After a soft knock on the door she entered and a gasp escaped her mouth at the sight of her.
There lying, the previously strong woman she knew, appeared weak and very old, she looked as if all the life had been sucked out of her; she had lost a great deal of weight and lay there in bed as if waiting for her own death.
As if sensing someone in her room; Elisabeth opened her eyes and when she saw Kiara a weak smile grazed her lips and she outstretched her arms
Kiara approached and gave her a soft hug tears running down her cheeks; when she pulled away she only got the courage to ask her how she was holding up.
"I am fine my dear, please don't cry; you know how much I hate seeing you like that."
At those words Kiara couldn't hold back the anymore, she started sobbing; she hated herself for getting upset about her father for the marriage and Celia for the milk bath only to forget about her precious Elisabeth, now she lay there weak and skinny and she couldn't do anything about it.
"Now there young lady what did I say? I am still tough and young; don't you dare to think you could get rid of me that easily." Elisabeth said weakly caressing Kiara's back, with her other hand, she raise Kiara's chin and looked into her eyes before saying;
"Everything will be okay love don't worry"
Kiara smiled a little before wiping her tears with the back of her palm, she knew Elisabeth was tough and was not the one to give up on life so easily and the admired her for that. Even though her nanny had given up on everything to take care of her, she had always been the happy and full of life kind of person and never complained.
"I love you so much Ma; please don't leave me."
"I love you too darling, I promised that I'd only die after seeing your children right?" At that they hugged again for some time and when Kiara pulled back; Elisabeth had fallen asleep; a deep peaceful sleep as if she was already gone.
she would have freaked but when she saw the steady rise and of her chest; she calmed down. she arranged the duvet neatly around her shoulders, sat back and watched her crying silently.
