Diana

chapter 24

At four o'clock he remembered that he had to meet Diana so he stepped out of the building and ordered the carriage man to take him to the palace.

When he had arrived he was greeted by a middle-aged woman, the woman had ordered him to wait for her downstairs as Diana had just done her duties. He, however, decided to wait for her at the garden.

Diana had beard from Jasmine that Samson had just gotten in a few minutes ago. She stopped doing her task and insisted to go meet him. However, Jasmine insisted that she was to finish the papers first , but she stood up from her desk and sprinted to meet him.

" Who just came in? "She asked the door keeper.

" Mr Fernandez , your Excellency. He was asking for you. I told him: that you are busy at the moment, and..."

" Where is he?"

" He told me to notify you when you're done that , he would wait for you in the garden. But here he comes anyways." She pointed towards Samson .

Samson stood at the bottom of the stairs. His handsome face beamed with the vivid flash.

" You should have told her to notify me of your coming" She said as she walked towards him.

" She had informed me that you were busy , so i didn't want to disturb you."

" Its fine , am done anyways , so we could talk in the garden now that am free"

They walked along the path towards the garden. When they had reached, she sat by the bear table, while he sat opposite her. Samson eyes were drawn to the beautiful scenery. Diana took this chance to observe his gorgeous features.

Everything about his face and figure, from his curly - blonde hair and his petite handlebar beard, down to his loosely fitting uniform.

He turned around to face Diana. " How about we go out for a bit, you know to calm our minds a bit. Besides you've been working hard enough, I think you deserve a break... time to relax."

" But you know my uncle he wou-"

He interrupted. " You don't need your uncle permission to leave the palace... Even if you do am sure he'll understand. Now come on."

As he approached her , his beautiful eyes shone with a specially tender light, and with a faint, delighted, and modest exultant smile, he held out his small broad hand towards her.

"  Just this once." He said in a convincing way.

Samson seemed now like his playful self, and Diana herself could see his youthfulness radiate from his charming smile. She couldn't refuse.

" Alright. " Diana got out and looked at Samson, she laid her right hand on his.

" I'll be refreshing, I promise." He said and smiled an open smile.

Diana gazed at Samson and also smiled.

" And your always like this " she inquired.

"No , but with you yes."  Samson replied, his charming smile shone through.

Samson led her to the carriage, and at the door of the carriage he stopped short to make room for her as she got in.

He glanced at her one more ; not on the account of her beauty which was apparent in her whole complexion, but because of how elegant and modest she was now. As he looked at her, she also the turned her head. Her glittering brown eyes and her thick lashes, rested on his face. In a brief look Samson had time to notice the restrained impatience which played over her face, as she gave him a warming smile that curved her red lips. Their stare Were soon cut short as she turned her head back and like a Queen she stepped into the carriage, Samson followed behind her .
