King and Queen (On-hold) EDITING

Chapter 12 (Little Princess)

Niel's Pov.

I was right, she was too tired to talk even to drive, and I can see it. I looked at her and she was already asleep in just a short time. Looking at her reminds me of Angel a lot, how I miss her so much. I noticed a child at the sidewalk, maybe she's 6 or 7, and the kid was tired and weak, I can clearly see bruises and cuts on her body. I stopped and went out of the car.

"Hey, little princess why are you alone?" I asked her, but she didn't answer me and she looked afraid.

"Little Princess, you don't have to be afraid, I'm a good man, I'll help I promise." I said to her, I felt someone was behind me so looked back and I saw Tania standing there.

"Hey, don't be afraid we'll take good care of you." She said.

"So, why are you alone?" I asked her again.

"Th...they ki.... kill...ed m...my pa...rent." She said while sobbing, who the h*ll killed them, poor kid why does she have to experience it in an early age.

"Shhhh..... It's okay we'll take good care of you I promise you; we'll find the person who killed them and make them pay for what they did." Tania said I can see anger in her eyes.

"What's your name, little princess?" I said.

"Elix Chris." She said.

"So Elix, do you remember something like a tattoo or anything?" I asked her looking at her she's trying to remember it.

"Oh, I remember something." She said.

"What is it, would you mind telling me?" I said.

"I saw a man, I think he's the one commanding them, he has a scar in his right cheek then he also has a skull with a word Kuatro, I think." She explained, I don't need to investigate this to know who they are, it is obvious who's fault it is, the Skull gang, one of the underling of Red Org. That's something that shouldn't be happening now, unless someone offer them a job.

"Elix Princess, do you want to come with us?" Tania asked before I could, she was looking at me, her eyes were full of hatred and anger. Don't worry, Tania I'll change you, you'll be back to yourself when this is all done.

"Can I really come with you?" Elix ask while looking at me, she is maybe expecting that I don't want to.

"Sure you can, come here don't worry we'll take good care of you." I said and carry her to the car, I put here at the back.

"What's our plan for her?" Tania ask.

"I'll take good care of her." I said.

"You know taking care of her you'll need to file an adoption paper to have full custody to her, Sat. And filling it without a mother will be hard, you know that. You need a mother for the child." She said, she looked sad.

"I know, I know, I'll figure something out." I said.

"*Yawn* Appa Umma, are we there yet?" I was shocked because she called us Appa and Umma.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to call you that, it's just that I was used to it" She said.

"It's okay, you can call us anything you want, you don't have to worry." Tania said, I just smiled for what she said, she really have that soft spot like what Angel always say.

"Thank you, Umma." Elix was smiling really wide but you can see a bit of sadness in her eyes.

"We'll file an adoption tomorrow." I said.

"Do I have a choice, I'm already fond of her, so I'll be the mother after all." She said while yawning.

"You can sleep, Tania." I said to her, she just close her eyes. I looked at the side mirror, Elix was already asleep.

I just smile while thinking of all that happen after that disastrous event. I just hope that the adoption won't go wrong. What an adventure this is, just a while ago it was so stressful but now we just found a child and we'll be adopting her, just wow. I stopped the car because we're already here. I got off, first, I went to Tania and carry her, and before I went in I locked the door first. I carried her to her room and placed her in the bed after that I went back to the car and carried Elix and placed her next to Tania. I know she won't be mad at all. It's like putting the daughter next to her mother. I went downstairs, maybe they're sleeping already. I sat at the sofa for a minute or two, and the lights fade away.
