Chapter 13 King Alger

As the car came to a halt past memories resurfaced.

Those giggles and laughs.

Those multiple rides on my fathers back.

Those warm cuddles and loving kisses my parents showered over me.

Overwhelmed with past memories I placed my first step back in the place where my life started.

A warm hand engulfed my cold ones.

I looked up to see Xavier passing me a smile of assurance.

"Don't worry my dad may seem cold at first but he is good at heart.

Just be yourself... okay?"

I nodded.

As we entered the ceremony hall at the centre stood the chair which belonged to the king.

The same chair on which I used to sit with the crown of my barbie princess on my head and imagine myself as the real princess.

The same chair on which my Dad used to sit with me on his lap.

Now the chair was still the same with its beautiful gold plated back with an intricate design and blood red cushioned seat but the person sitting on it was not the same.
