Unsaid

It was snowy dawn sun had yet to rise , a boy barely thirteen years slowly woke up from the luxurious bed without waking two kids a boy and a girl younger than him , he put on a coat from the closet it wasn't thick enough to warm him but he just took another bag and glanced at his younger siblings one last time "Bye " he muttered slowly and door closed slowly as he walked out of what seemed to be as big as a castle maybe a castle itself . But the door opened and the young boy who was sleeping a while ago came out . The older boy Jean sighed seeing Chris with teary eyes threatening to explode any moment . " Brother do you really hate father ? "

" I don't "

" Then why do you have to go? Can't you just ask fathe- "

" Chris things aren't so simple and I really have to go "

" Brother wait I will wake Sara up or she will be tearing up all day "

" Chris I can't face her just tell her I went on a vacation and be back soon"

" Will you ? " He asked with all the emotion a you can see on a ten year old

" Yes I will come back ...soon , take care of her remember you are the elder one don't bully her "

" Brother it's she who bully's me " he said aggravatedly

Jean realized again how hard it was to leave so turned toward the large gate and walked as walked out without looking back a drop of tears finally escaped Chris's eyes .

The next day a news spread among the people of Statec the second son of the great Gabriel family had ran away .

The same day a room inside the place

" How dare he " as his fist landed the table broke down the people in front of his trembled in fear as the one in front was the son of heaven , the mightiest one in the whole nation the emeror himself

" He dares make a joke of me huh " he threw the edict

In a nearby room

" Mother so what if he runs away can't we catch him ? " a young girl asked

" you stupid girl do you really think a thirteen year old can run away from Gabrial family who have the whole north under them ? "

She had a smirk she thought she could use it to strengthen her son's claim on the throne but alas the north can't be forced a hard truth which she knew better than many .
