I was a bit sad
But I was showing it, till in thoughts I Walked into the castles gates, "oh gosh!" I exclaimed as I saw my mom hasting towards my direction, I shot my eyes in irritant, I am in no mood for nags right now , behind her was her maids and two bodyguards, she approached me with a questioning look.
"Mom, look I am tired and sad so please let's postpone the scolding till noon" I said and walked past her without an atom of emotion.
She has never cared for me, so all of a sudden, what a hypocrite I entered the hallway as I heard chit chats and giggles
My day keeps getting worse!
I tried avoiding my sister's without them noticing me.
"Layked"
I shot my eyes, fuck the devil, I turned to the both of them with a staged smile
"Heyy!" I waved, the both approached me smiling like kids who got candies,
I knew what they were doing, they want a fight.
"We are hosting a ladies party, tho guys are not invited but we are considering you" Rina said and smirked, I knew she wanted me to burst out but the devil can't tempt me not today at least
"Rina dear" I placed a hand on her shoulder let out a sigh
"As the first daughter of septon, why not put more effort on looking for suitors than hosting parties"I gave her a broad smile, cus if there was one thing I knew how to do was turning situation around, I could clearly see she was fuming as Gemini stared daggers at me
" Mmh, mmh! "Someone cleared their throat from behind approaching us , we turned to the direction to see my grandma, I quickly ran to her and gave her a quick embrace
"Ma!" I hugged her passionate inhaling her spicy scents, rina and Gemini just stood there looking at us, while my grandma's servants carried her luggages down the hallway, Gemini hissed and left while Rina just stood there glaring at me,
"Gran Gran it has been a long time, since my 16th birthday,I have been yearning to see you all this year's"I told my granny as we walked past Rina pretending not to see her, my placed my arm against my granny as we walked to my rooms direction.
" You didn't miss me as much, if you did you would have sent words"
Oh! That actually skipped my mind, I could have been writing to her all those years, well I have no excuse this time so I decided to apologize
" Am really sorry ma"I turned facing her,
I promise not to do it again
"Layked are you blocking me from entering your room" she said jokingly, we both laughed as I opened the door, I sent the maids at my door side to get us tea.
Entering the room, just as if she read my mind
"I know you have a lot to say" she said smiling
"Granny!" I shouted in surprise
What else can't this woman do I wondered looking at her amused, anyways....
"Spill the tea already" granny said faking to be desperate.
I sat beside her and held her hands
"So tell me all what has been happening" granny said
Without thinking I just told her the incident about the hoodie guy, granny's expression quickly changed she slowly pulled her hands from mine then stood up,
"I need to speak with your father" she said and left without looking back
Then it dawned on me that granny was a voodoo queen, and she has tried everything in her power to persuade my father out of the purge, I knew I messed up
But the bigger mess up would be if she mentioned my name in their conversation
I stood up and quickly stumped out the room
Of course I was going to eavesdrop.
I kept wandering from doors to door lying my head against the doors to check if I could hear voices but I heard none, when I got tired of searching I decided to retire back to my room when I heard clinging of swords
I loved those sounds, I could remember when I was still a girl,sneaking to the training quarters just to watch men train was my relief balm
Though I was scolded at when I was caught but it never stopped me from watching
Yea! Am a skilled warrior and I know how to fight, walking into an open room that looked like an auditorium zoham was their commanding my two sisters on what to do, I just walked in and greeted zoham which he responded with a nod, I walked to a side table piled with assorted fruits picked one of my choice and bit into it,
Right!
Left!
Guard!
Zoham kept ordering my sister's as the swung their swords , after what looked like forever, he was finally done with his teachings he bowed to us and left
"You act superior, but you are nothing" Gemini said
Rina just moved aside packing her swords and cleaning them.
"Gemini I don't act superior" I replied softly, knowing she wanted something more than the reply, so I decided to provoke her more by playing the pity card
"If you don't act superior, then why weren't you training with us"
Huh!
Liiiike!
Was she bittered I didn't join?
"Shake it off, I passed the stage of swords lectures long time ago"
"Sounds fun, let's practice" Rina said standing up to me, I just shot my eyes
"Okay , take out your swords and I will lecture both of you" I said walking to a spot"
"No, we both want to practice" Gemini said stopping me in my tracks, I was still clueless so I gave them a questioning look
We want to practice like people in your so called sword stage both of them chorused.
Wait,was this supposed to be a prank or something I asked but got no reply
Am sorry I can't accept the request I made to live but the sound of swords drawing out from it sheets pulled me back,
"You don't refuse an order, have you forgotten your place?" Rina stated
Place indeed, there's nothing like that, after all I can't fight you both without a sword a explained moving towards the sword rack.
"There won't be any need for that" Gemini said and charged at me with Rina moving towards me with their swords pointed to my chest...
