Emma and the Legendary book

CHAPTER TEN

We walk further more into the palace, just like outside even people inside are looking at me, making me feel like a lost child.

I match Augustine's step as we walk side by side, am almost cringing to him because of the stare. I don't like the attention.

"it seems the only attention you want today is from me right."

he say with smirk playing on his perfectly fine lips.

"even we are surprised to see you two together I thought oh my God Augustine and Emma together this must be one of those Emmastine moments we always talk about when you guys gets to talk."

the guy who looks like the guy say....wait they are twins i thought I saw double, ugh. all the stare got me looking like a lost child in this big world.

" Lotus and Jared nice to you too guys." sarcasm much

Lotus and Jared, Lotus and Jared, Lotus and .....my cousins whom I know so much. I look at them from head to toe and they sure damn handsome with the same height as Alex, they have baby blue eyes and dark hair with a very beautiful complexion am jealous right now. I look at them and their eyes are connected to me like we are meeting for the first time and they know it but they don't know how to respond.

I take the first step and hug both of them to myself.

" sorry we are meeting in this circumstances, we arrived the day you arrived our parents and your parents told us."

the one on the left says to me in whisper so that only I can hear

I hug them a little before we break apart.

"that was a reunion right but we need to move, she needs to be assign with what to do."

Augustine say.

" see you soon guys I can't wait to talk you two I missed you so much."

I smile at my cousins who seems warm and welcoming and friendly I bet girls drool over them.

at first I thought it was impossible to differentiate them but now I can clearly see the difference.

Lotus has protruding eyes and bit deep voice while Jared has round eyes with calm voice that sounds like you are calming someone.

I wave at them and then continues walking with Augustine, the stare from the people have not stopped and now it seems like they have seen hope in front of them.

" this is getting a little bit weird why do some look like they are excited to see you."

he say with amusement in his voice

" I told you their look is getting to me this is my first time here and everyone is looking at me as if they have seen the goddess."

how big is this palace, we have taken so many turns. turning to the left again we enter a room, this must be the living room.

" people here don't get to see much beauty and sure they are mesmerized by you." as Soon as the words left his mouth he covers it as if realizing what he just said.

"no need to be shy I heard it all thanks that you see me beautiful I appreciate."

I shrugs my shoulder while holding my in my giggles.

" don't have so much ego because I said you are beautiful, it's true don't even hide it but don't tell anyone I said that to you."

I look at him for a whole one minute and look away.

"your Aunt will be here soon, we just need to wait a bit longer."

he say.

"while we wait can I ask you something."

"what is it.?"he reply

"for how long have you known me.?" I ask

he looks hesitant to answer but I see him sigh and then he looks me in the eyes making me blush profusely. I turn to the ground like they are my favorite thing to look. the way the air keeps getting warms reminds me that he is still looking at me and I wait his answer.

" since you turned sixteen, I have always watched you from afar scared that if I get close I might get lost in you pretty eyes and you would steal my heart without a second thought."

he says it like it's a poem

"what.?
