It was as if the spirit of her childhood had been reignited, she was laughing so carefreely. The men were still holding back on dry land, acting as if they were too sophisticated to engage in such childish behavior. She shrugged and kicked the water with her feet.
"Mummy come here." Justin called in his adorable voice.
She turned her back on the men and went to join the children. Their mood matched hers perfectly and when she got there, she rolled a ball of mud and aimed it at Justin's back. It hit him lightly and he squealed.
The children suddenly had a brilliant idea, mud fight!!!!
What followed next was the flinging of mud balls in every direction. Some of the workers that were standing on the sides of the trenches which were leading water to the paddies joined in on the game. Oak and Bell couldn't take the temptation anymore and they joined in.
Scarlet picked up Justin and she twirled him around while he screamed in joy. Just as she put him down, Severus jumped into the paddy with so much force that he splashed mud on her face.
The children giggled because she had mud in the face. She chased after Severus and the children turned this into another game of 'who will catch the dog first?' Luckily, Severus engaged the children by dodging their little hands, slowing down until they were close before setting off again and flinging mud at them his hind legs.
"Mummy sing the rice sowing song." Justin urged her.
"Yes governor Scarlet sing." the other children begged. They were now comfortable with her since she had played with them. To them, the adult who played with them was a good adult.
She laughed and asked the children, "Who wants to hear me sing?" You can trace the roots of this content at n0v@lbin
All of their hands went up. There was a total of only twenty two children on the Blue star and all twenty two were here. It was as if she was she was in a little classroom.
"Your wife is really talented brother, I have to say that I am beginning to envy you a little bit." Markay whispered to Esong.
Esong snorted.
"I wonder why you hated her so much, I never met her back then and all I heard were terrible things but this is not a terrible woman. She is beautiful, hardworking and talented. Her biggest flaw is her lack of mental strength.
Again, Esong snorted. He did not tell his cousin that he had tried to scan her mind and he felt the fledglings of energy. She had pushed herself away from him before he could carefully understand what it was. If he head to guess, she truly was regaining her mental strength as she had vaguely said to him.
He was feeling slightly irritated because of Markay's words. What exactly was Markay thinking? Was he interested in this woman?
For some reason he felt a small sense of panic and discomfort in his chest. He had not felt this way before. Actually, he realized that he had felt panic before when she drugged him and he could not fight back. He recalled how much he hated himself for having let his guard down and landing himself in such a situation. A sliver of anger went through his heart suddenly and he clenched his fists.
"She is not who she appears to be." he replied.
Scarlet appeared to have finished her singing and her enthralled audience was applauding her vigorously.
"Mummy sing old McDonald now." Justin shouted.
"No more singing." Esong yelled. "Don't you all have school to attend?" he asked the children sternly.
Watching this woman sing softly with that smile on his face was angering him. Was she doing this to seek Markay's attention? He felt the senseless urge to take that musical instrument in her hands and smash it.
Scarlet saw the happy smile on Justin's face turn into a frown and she looked at Esong with fury burning in her eyes. "Why are you scaring the children?" she shouted at him just as he had done to them.
Esong's mind spun around as he thought about what answer would suit him best in this situation because this woman was spitting fire at him with her eyes. He found it and he touched his chest and put a solemn look on his face like a good actor. "Is it wrong of me to ask about their schooling? Some of them are as old as ten years. All of them should be in school, am I wrong? Is it so bad of me one of the empire's generals and a member of the royal family to hope that these young clever children who are the future of our empire attend school instead of running around carefreely?" Esong replied defensively.
