The Love Of A King (bxb)

Chapter 29

"Go." Said the king to his trusted knight. "The moment he steps out of the kingdom, make sure you let the boy knows the truth and take him back home. Make sure his family heard of the news and when all is done, come back."

The trusted knight bowed his head down before walking away from his king and setting foot on a task risked of a life.

                  There were simply no words for it. He wanted to leave this mess behind and walk around the world, but the last time he thought he could escaped, he ended up killing other people life's who would have more valued than he is. Sunni could not remember the last time he laugh with a genuine feelings or eat with a hungry stomach. Lately, all things are rather becoming very dark and sorrow.

The king's wedding has come and he is still there, not moving, not doing anything. No...as a matter of fact...he is not capable of doing anything except for hiding and thinking that it would all be alright.

Sunni decided twice on escaping with Arnand to Ashaiya. He had never felt the urge to do something so bad that it took away sleepless night from him. And when he did nothing to follow this urge, it took his soul away and now he stands restless.

Arnand have departed. The boy with the brightest smile on his face exited the castle gates yesterday and Sunni felt so miserable, he knows he is.

And when you know you are miserable, it pains you more than it should.

As every night, Sunni lays his body with his king, he think of the orphans, he thinks of other possibilities.

He thinks of what would become if he had not listen to the old lady. What would have happen if Armand would have just abandoned him outside the gates like everyone else and just walk away.

Of course, he would still be prowling around the street begging for a job. The orphanage would be on the edge of extinction if it has not been for Taizan who have given all kinds of things, food and supplies to that home. And of course...Armand would still be well and alive.

Sunni then turns his head aside as a sleeping Taizan lies beside him. That handsome face, that beautiful figure. They say as you love more, you lose yourself. Sunni had no idea if he loves more or he is simply in debt to this man. Taizan have given him a life that he could have never imagine would be destined for him. It was everything anyone would want...but why is it that this life is hurting him? Why is it that this magnificent and luxurious life that was given to him is catastrophic?

Sunni wishes things would be much simpler with him and Taizan. Less complicated and political.

He wonders what would happen if Taizan was never the king?

Could you imagine?

Can you see how that life would fit him?

They would meet for the first time at an inn.

Taizan was on his journey to the kingdom city to sell what his family farm produce. He was travelling along with his loving older and younger brother. They were like the three musketeers, always fighting imaginary battles and always doing things beyond bravery. And Taizan was this friendly and handsome charming young man who would've be love by anyone for wherever he steps his foot.
