At the palace,Old man peter and the other elders sat down,waiting for the king.
He had summoned them,and they wondered why.
Not quite long,the king came inside the palace,with Esther's father.
The elders saw the two of them,when they came in.
But they were astonished,at the way the king was relating to him.
Curious,old man peter then said,as he and the other elders stood up to greet him,"Greetings your majesty.
You had sent for us.
Hope there's no problem?",he asked.
The king smiled at them,and replied to old man Peter,"There's no problem my friend. Only good news",he chuckled.
Good news?.
The elders smiled.
"The prince has found himself a bride".
Stunned,all the elders were happy.
Old man Peter wondered who the lucky girl was.
So he asked.
" So..who's the lucky girl?".
"My daughter,Esther", Esther's father replied,looking happy.
Not too pleased,Old man peter planted a fake smile and said," He has made the right choice my king.
Esther is lucky".
