"No, I am not!" Kelly said as she looked outside the window.
"Well if you say so then fine~ but remember I am always there for you...so no matter what the problem is, never hesitate to look for me," Molly said as she stroked kelly's hair.
.
"Yes, I know that sister..." Kelly said as she smiled at Molly.
.
"That's like my sister!" Now smile!" Molly said as she tickled Kelly making her laugh out loud.
.
Even though Kelly was laughing and joking around with her sister, deep down she was worried and tensed because of what she heard and saw today.
.
And she knows that her involvement won't solve anything that's happening in the Willson household.
.
But still, deep inside she keeps hoping that everything will work out for them...and somewhere in her heart the image of Harris smiling and the pain behind those was being seen by her...And in one way or other, it broke her heart in millions of pieces.
.
"I hope and wish that everything turns out to be good," Kelly said as she hugged Molly.
"Sure everything will be good!" Molly said as she wanted her head.
.
Meanwhile in the Winter family.
"Please make sure he doesn't wake up," Irene said to the maid who was carrying Ash to have room.
.
*Yawn* " We reached home~" Violet who slowly opened her eyes said as she looked at the white villa before her.
.
"Yes, but why did you wake up...I could have just called someone to carry you." Irene said as she helped Viole get down the carriage.
.
"No worries furthermore, I don't feel comfortable being carried around," Violet said as she smiled at Irene with her puffed eyes.
.
"I see then at least let me accompany you to your room," Irene said as she looked at Violet who was still half asleep.
.
"Hmm, that would be good...I am sleepy..." Violet said as she held into Irene's hand and moved alongside her.
.
"But where is lord winter? Didn't he come with us?" Violet asked looking around.
.
"Father is already in his room, it was cold so I told him to go up first," Irene said as both of them entered Violet's room.
.
"And now change into some comfortable clothes and then go to sleep. Okay." Irene said as she turned around to leave.
.
"Irene! You.....Are you not angry with me?" Violet asked as she looked at Irene back faced towards her.
.
"I don't and I never will," Irene said as she looked at Violet. " You are my friend and I know who you are truly....the innocent mask of yours and the sarcastic face of yours I know both...so there is nothing for me to be wary of," Irene said as he smiled at Violet.
.
"Hmph, but still you can't be so sure...people can change anytime..." Violet said as she laid down on her bed.
.
"Yes...people can change anytime but no one knows when that time will come, so to me what matters the most is now...and right now you need to sleep like a good girl," Irene said as she changed the topic.
.
"Bumper~," Violet said as she closed her eyes and turned to the other side.
.
"Now then good night," Irene said as she switched off the lights and went to Ash room.
.
"Is he asleep?" Irene asked Hana who was looking after Ash.
"My lady, Young Master is sleeping peacefully so no need to worry," Hana said as she tucked him in the blankets.
.
" I know and I am not worrying...I am just looking at him, he is 5 and soon he will be 6 then 7 then 8....and one day he will reach adulthood...and then one day he will have his own family with the one he loves." Irene said as she looked at Ash sleeping face.
.
"My lady that's true and is the life cycle of every human...but why are you talking about it today?" Hana asked as she looked at Irene.
.
"Because I am afraid of the time since it's moving so fast.....I am afraid we won't have many memories together. I am afraid he might grow too fast...Ha, do mothers feel like this too, when their baby grows up..." Irene said as she sighed.
.
" My lady what's going inside a mother heart is something only a mother could understand so I can't say anything about it....but maybe one day we will know it," Hana said as she smiled.
.
"Yes, maybe but today I feel so proud of him. Today he stood up for what's right even if he said that the reason behind it was me but still I know my brother is going to be a good person and a good citizen." Irene said as she kissed Ash forehead.
.
" He will surely be after all he is from the winter family and also he has parents like the lord and lady Mellisa and a sister like you. He for sure will be a great person too." Hana said as she looked at Ash who was sleeping with no idea of what's happening around him.
.
" I don't really agree with that because what a person becomes is on them. Bloodline doesn't matter, and I agree that parenting care is important but do you know the lotus grows in between the dirty water. So I believe a good person will be good even if he or she is surrounded by dirt." Irene said as she looked at Hana who looked at Irene with warm eyes.
.
"My lady you are truly an Angel even your words are touching. And I will always remember it." Hana said as she bowed towards Irene.
.
" I will be happy if you do that...then shall we move to my room," Irene said as she stood up from Ash bed. And then went to her room.
.
" Today was extraordinary, and it was a good thing that in the end, everything ended up well. But still why is my heart so restless as if something is about to happen soon and no matter what I am not able to side this feeling." Irene said as she looked at the sky.
.
"God please protect us," Irene said as she joined her hands.
.
Meanwhile in the palace,
"Brother that's enough!" Alfred said as he stopped Alan from using his sword.
.
"Alfred don't stop me....not today..." Alan said as he kept slaying the dummies with his sword.
.
"But brother what's the point of hurting yourself like this...your pain won't change the situation..." Alfred said as she held Alan's hand and threw the sword from his hand.
.
"Brother right now....we need you...please..." Alfred said as he started crying right there.
.
"Brother....mother is in her last stage now...and we have to accept it...we need to stand together
....." Alfred said as he looked at Alan, who was standing there emotionlessly.
.
"Brother please say something!! Brother....why did things become like this and why mother?... Didn't she always say good things happen with good people so why is this happening with her? Why!!!" Alfred said as he punched Alan in his chest lightly.
.
In the empress room,
" Your Majesty please prepare yourself." The doctor said as she left the room and no one needed to go any deeper since his words clearly described what the situation was.
.
The emperor stood there like a statue looking at his beloved wife, "Aurora...you must be tired right...rest well...I will be waiting here by your side." The emperor said as he held into her thin hands and sat down beside her.
.
"Please leave us alone." He said and the maids left the room all at once.
.
"Aurora you always liked it when we were alone like this. Remember when we first got married...we sneaked out of the palace and went downtown and danced the night away. You were so happy that day, although the next day you got a fever. You still didn't regret doing it. You never regretted anything...you did whatever you liked and always sacrificed whatever you could.
.
You were that presence in my life that came like a gentle wind and even before I realised it that wind already bought spring in my life." The emperor said as he touched her hair.
.
"You did everything so well that I was never disappointed in you...and now when we have reached in this stage of life...I don't know how to stop you...But my empress I want you to know that no matter what happens I will always love you and only you....so if I am not being selfish...please can you stay for a bit longer ...please..." The emperor said as tears ran down his eyes.
.
"Y...your majesty...I...love you too....so please don't cry...it makes me feel bad..." The empress said in a low voice.
.
"...My empress......" His majesty said as he kissed her hands and looked at her with his golden eyes.
