Forgiveness

The play

It had take a couple of days for Shuriki to fully recover. The quietness in the dinner room had increased when Shuriki began to eat with them. Luckily no fight break down or painful talking about the past began. Elena almost refuse to eat in the same table, but Luisa managed to make her go and stay. Even the circumstances of the past, the almost the whole royal family recieved Shuriki warmly and accept her as a person with mistakes instead of a monster who tried to destroy their family (As she thought they would treat her).

"O villainy! Ho! Let the door be locked. Treachery! Seek it out." Isabel said with a fake sword pointing at Shuriki.

"Laertes- It is here, Hamlet. Hamlet, thou art slain. No med'cine in the world can do thee good. In thee there is not half an hour's life. The treacherous instrument is in thy hand, Unbated and envenomed. The foul practice Hath turned itself on me. Lo, here I lie, Never to rise again. Thy mother's poisoned. I can no more. The King, the King's to blame" Isabel said, as she voiced an old armor who was posed to be kneeling.

"The point envenomed too! Then, venom, to thy work." Then Isabel took her fake sword and with the help of Shuriki placed the sword in Shuriki's arm as she falled.

"All-Treason, treason!" Shuriki said in almost a whisper before turning to Isabel "O, yet defend me, friends! I am but hurt."

"Here, thou incestuous, murd'rous, damnèd Dane, Drink off this potion. Is thy union here?" She took a cup and then placed in Shuriki's lips.

"What are you two doing?" The chancellor said crossing his arms, he wasn't frowning but glance at them in confusion.

"Hamlet" Isabel said

"Oh, well,...um" Esteban said looking away when she saw Shuriki smiling at him "I Will be using the library so you two better find another place to play"

Both clean their mess and walked away. Esteban's heat rised when Shuriki gave him a Kiss on his cheek wishing him a good day. He returned to the library but changing his plans about working. The next day Esteban asked Shuriki for a picnic in the garden, since she wasn't allowed to leave the palace for now. Both changed stories about both living together before both returned to the palace, since Shuriki was asked to take clases to control her temper and anxiety.

"How do you impress a lady" Esteban asked sitting in a chair of the living room of the palace "It just for curiosity, Abuelo"

"There are many ways to impress a lady, Esteban" Francisco said "But the best idea is to know what she like and her passions and then you surprise her with something impresive related. I sang a serenata to your abuela when I met her, she was delighted and gave me a chance. You better find out what she likes, Esteban"

"This is not about a lady, abuelo" Esteban groaned.

Eseban began to thought deep about Shuriki's like and passions. She secretly loved birds, she enjoyed daily exercise without having the sunglight in her face. But then he remembered what she was doing with Isa in the library. Shuriki wouldn't admit it, to anyone that she didn't trust or like deeply, but she loved theater. It could be noisy, but she had always fell into the different stories, specially mystery. One of her favorite plays was the tempest, but she also love a play that gave him a great idea.

"You look adorable" Luisa caressed Shuriki's cheek as she spun her around.

She was wearing a yellow long simple halter neck dress with a upside down V around her breasts made of white and small sappires which held a free transparent cloth of the same color of the dress. Her hair was lousy but one side of her head was holding a jewelry accesory for the hair. She was also using an elagant white jacket and plat color heel sandals. Luisa gave her a pear necklace as a thank you for slowly accepting them and also shown improvent of herself.

"You're like a lovely princess" Isabel said before taking her hand "We better not be late for the play Romeo and Juliet, Esteban was really exited.

The play was held in one of the many enourmous rooms and directed by talented actors. Esteban sat next to Shuriki. As the play began she gave him a soft smiled before embrazing him. As the play continued, she hold his hand.
