Rachael was discharged and when she was taken to the driveway,she refused to enter the car. "What is that strange machine. It looks like a cart but with four wheels." Rachael said. "It's a car." Damian explained.
"Your highness, I don't understand. How can a cart move on it's own,there's no one pushing it and aren't carts meant for heavy loads,why do we have to sit on it?" She asked all the more curious.
"I've told you, it's a car not a cart. It doesn't move on it's own, someone has to drive it from the inside and for the last time, stop calling me that." Damian nearly yelled frustrated.
"Then what should I call you?" She asked innocently. "Just call me by my name, Damian." He said effortlessly.
"No,that's not right. You're a king and a king cannot be called by his name. I don't want to be sentenced to death the second time." Rachael opposed.
"I won't argue with you anymore, do whatever you want." Damian said in defeat as he put in a wireless earphone. She suddenly jumped on him and scurried for his ears,unplugging the earphone, throwing it to the ground and stepping on it,making sure it broke to pieces.
"What have you done, foolish girl?" He asked angrily. "You know your Majesty, I may be young but I'm not foolish. I just saved you and you should be thanking me,a huge black bug was about climbing into your ear and I stopped it and killed it." She said proudly.
Damian was so angry that his normally beautiful gray eyes looked like they were turning red.
"If I have to spend one more minute talking to you, I swear I'll kill you with my bare hands. Now get in the car." He raved hotly.
She scurried into the car and he closed the door before making his way to the driver's seat. He started the car and they drove in silence. She wanted to ask so many questions, like how were the huge skyscrapers she saw built? Who made the cars? Why did everything look so different? Why were people dressed so colourfully and sparsely? Why was everywhere so different? But she couldn't make the mistake of speaking because she knew the King was angry and if the king is angry, he could order her execution,just like what happened the first time. She still wondered how she escaped the flames,why her body wasn't burnt and just how she looked so grown and mature all of a sudden. How did she end up in that weird house full of walls and filled up with weirdly dressed people called a hospital.
So many questions ran through her mind but she was so scared to ask for fear that she would be sentenced to death. The car stopped in front of a huge gate which opened on it's own and Damian drove in and stopped by the stately mansion.
Rachael couldn't help staring wide eyed,mouth agape. This was the hugest house she had ever seen. Damian seeing her expression couldn't help smirking. "Come on,let's go inside." He said taking her hand but she freed her hand from his.
"I'm sorry your Majesty but this house is so large that I am sure to get lost,I do not wish to trouble you anymore." She said and he smirked some more,she really looked cute.
