Je t'amore (I love you )

It was full moon , the city was busy and the breeze was refreshing. Stella stood on top of a building , trying to decide whether she should end her life or not . She stood there thinking about what to do but before she could back out, she felt someone push her from behind . She suddenly found herself in the cold freezing water trying hard to swim. Stella has always been a good swimmer but she didn't know what happened but no matter how much she tried , she couldn't get out of the water . It felt as if an invincible force was pulling her down drowning deeper and deeper into the water. She looked ahead and tried to shout but felt the water filling her lungs. Looking at the full moon , she whispered , "Help Me" before she lost conciousness. The sun was shining bright through the closed curtains , the chirping of birds were heard everywhere . Stella woke up in an unfamiliar room at an unfamiliar place in an unfamiliar body . She was expecting to wake up at the hospital but was shocked to find her dressed in some unknown clothing instead of a hospital gown. Lady Ming !!!,Lady Ming !!! . A young girl suddenly entered the room . She wore a simple dress with her hair braided backwards , she held a pot of water in her hands . Lady Ming , it's time for your bath , you need ready before concubine Li arrives. Stella : cocupie what!! Concubine Li , your second step imperial mother. It seems the hit yesterday affected your brain , I should have consulted the physician. Stella : By the way , who are you? . My Lady , don't tell you don't remember me too!!! . Suddenly the willful cry of the young girl echoed through the room. Stella : I think you're over reacting. stop crying. Suddenly the cry of the young girl stopped. She looked at Stella and said ; What if my lady gets amesia and dies . I will be left all alone in this big world to cater for myself . But l'm only 15yrs. What about my family. Suddenly the cry that Stella thought she had stopped started again and this time was louder than before. Stella :-_- huh!! , but amnesia doesn't kill. Stella laid down on her bed as the imperial physician looked at her. The physician later asked her some questions.Everywhere was quiet as Liyue was waiting to hear the results from the physician. l think Lady Ming's condition is not as serious as Liyue mentioned earlier . It's seems she had got hit on her head yesterday and got temporary amnesia but it won't last long . After some days , she will gradually remember everything. Oh!! , So that means Lady Ming won't die . Physician :-_- , no Liyue . She just forgot about a few things but will remember after sometime. Oh!!, Ok. Then I'll do my best to help Lady Ming get back her memories. After giving them some prescription medicines that Stella would need , he left in a hurry. Physician Lin!!, Physician Lin!!. Why are you in a hurry . Is something serious wrong with Lady Ming . I don't know but her pulse says that everything is alright yet the symptoms show that she might have a memory loss. l need to go to Elder Xi to find out what kind of illness that might be. Back in the room , Liyue sat close to Stella crying . Stella : Why are you crying , l told you to stop crying . You will really annoy me if you keep on doing this. Liyue wiped her tears with her hands as she said to Stella ; don't worry lady Ming , I'll help you to regain your memory about your past. Liyue explained to Stella about who and how Lady Ming was. Yu Liming or Lady Ming was the Second young mistress of the Yu family. She was the daughter of Elder Yu's legal wife Su lilue but wasn't respected by the Yu family members . She was always bullied by her step sister and her father was never there to protect her and keeps blaming her for the death of his wife , Su lilue . Liming was never seen as a Yu and was always treated as a servant in the family and a shame to the Yu family . Later at the age of 16yrs , she got betrothed to the half bred son of the Emporer who no one has ever set eyes on before . Initially , she agreed to the alliance only to make her dad happy but it seems that no matter what she tried to do Elder Yu already made arrangements to refuse to accept her as his daughter. Every time her father looked at her , she could see that all he ever saw was a splitting image of his wife . Liming some times would dress like a commoner get out of the Yu Palace Manor only to see the outside world and see how it feels to be free. That was how she got hit in a street fight in the market and now everyone thinks she's got amnesia. Concubine Li arrives ; a voice echoed in the whole room as a woman in her forties entered the room. As she entered , Liyue went on her knees to welcome her but Stella just sat down looking at her. Such insolence, Yu Liming , have you forgotten who l am . Why haven't you gotten on your knees to welcome me . It seems l have been lenient on you this this days so you have forgotten who I am . Get her , she said to the servants behind her. Stella:-_- huh!!! Liyue tried to explain to them that her mistress was sick but she couldn't stop them from dragging Stella off the bed. The maids forcefully held her down on her knees preventing her from moving. Suddenly concubine Li took a whip from one of her servants . Liming it seems you have forgotten the punishment for disobeying me so l would have to remind you. But before her whip could touch Liming's body, Stella suddenly pushed away the the maids holding her arms and forcefully held the whip before it could touch her skin. Stella : If l let this whip touch my body , then what would be the use of thirty months of training to become a gangster. Stella suddenly pulled the whip from concubine Li's hand and started whipping the maids that held her down. Seeing what was happening . Concubine Li tried to stop Liming but was pushed backwards by her , suddenly she pretend to have fallen on the ground and started wailing loudly. It was not a secret to everyone that concubine Li was pregnant and Elder Yu had been doting on her very much because he was expecting a boy since he had three girls and looking at what was happening , both Liming and Liyue knew that they had fallen into her trap. Everybody was waiting anxiously as the physician checked on Concubine Li. As always , Concubine Li paid him to fabricate a story that she was about to get a miscarriage if not brought back on time and should be given complete bed rest. Making Elder Yu really angry at Yu Liming. That day , Elder Yu summoned for Liming yet she made him wait and wait but never appeared. Yu Liming , that child . I'm really going to make her pay for disobeying me . Ming Pavilion. Liyue!!! , is my spicy chicken ready . l'm really hungry. I'm coming , it's ready. Liyue suddenly entered and place a bowl of spicy chicken on the table for Liming.She was surprised because her mistress never liked spicy foods. But for the first time , Yu Liming asked for a spicy chicken dish and further more she was drinking wine which she has never tasted before . Liyue come and join me let's eat , it's my first and last day here so we have to make it special don't we. Just like that , the night become longer than how it was expected to be . Stella just figured out that since she fell into the swimming pool before coming into Liming's body , all she had to do was find a water body just like the swimming pool and puff!!!!!, she would disappear back into her world. Next morning, Liming woke up with a splitting headache. She woke up to find the room dirty . Clothes and different kinds of wine bottles were scattered everywhere. She found Liyue sleeping by her side . After waking her up , they both cleaned up the place and got ready for the day. My lady , should I make some spicy chicken soup for you. Liming turned , looked at Liyue and said , Liyue it seems you don't know me much . By now I thought you would understand that l don't like spicy dishes. But yesterday you....... Liyue wanted to speak but was cut off as Elder Yu suddenly came out of nowhere . Liming!!!! , you this unfilial daughter of mine . You killed your mother and now want to do the same thing to my son. I called for you but never appeared. It seems now you've got wings and l'm going to do the honour of cutting them down. Elder Yu's guards started dragging Liming and Liyue along with them. On the way , Liming tried so hard to tell her father that she had done nothing but Elder Yu turned a blind eye to her pleads . When they got into the store room , Liming tried so hard to explain the Concubine Li was lying but her father didn't even listen and slapped her on top of that making her dizzy and ended up fainting . She and Liyue were later locked inside the dark store room. It took hours before Liming got back her conciousness. Liyue , get me some ginger soup , Stella whispered in her drowsy state. Liming !!!, Liming !!!. Get up l'm scared . Liyue slowly shake Stella , waking her up from her drowsy state . Minutes later Liming , Liming. Liyue called out to Stella as they were trying to sneak out of Yu Palace Manor. It was very tiring to break the door to the store room and both of them really felt hungry at the moment. Stella :What!!! Liyue : I'm hungry. l can't even walk any more. Stella :-_- , wait a little bit more . When we get out of here , I'll buy you all the food you. Liyue : But you don't even have money . Stella : -_-. Okay , then if you already know , then the is no need to tell me your hungry . Just keep it to yourself . Liyue : -_-!!! Since the gates of Yu Palace Manor were heavily guard . Stella and Liming had no other choice but to climb the wall inorder to get out. Liyue stand well . Aah !!!, you this girl . Small task , you can't do. If only I was in my normal body , l would not even need your help to climb this wall but would have jumped over it already. But I'm hungry . You're not hungry Liyue , but lazy . Liyue : -_-. huhp!!! While trying hard to climb , Stella looked ahead and saw a young man walking beside the wall . For the first time she decided to ask for help . Stella : Siii!!!!, Siii!! . Hey strong man can you help me with something . Man : Are you talking to me ? The young man who was playing with his sword earlier asked. Stella : Of course . Mr. Handsome , it must be only you . Do you know how you attracted me from that distance . Aah!!!, I think I'm falling in love . Stella dramatically touched her heart. Liyue : Hurry up , tht guards are searching for us . Stella : So what !!! Liyue : -_- !!!! Help me Mister !!! . This family kidn*pped me so that I can marry their son . But don't worry , l know that with your help l will be able to get out of here . Liyue : Young master Yu , isn't yet to be born. Stella : -_-. It seems you're not hungry any more Liyue , since you have the mouth to talk then you can walk . Man : Please l can't help you . Stella : No!!,No!!! , All l need you to do is to catch me when I jump. Okay !!. Man : -_-. Huh!!!!. Stella : Okay , catch me I'm about to jump . Aahhh!!!!! , Liming's voice echoed everywhere as she fell on the ground . Her dress got dirty and body felt weak. Can't you see well !!!. Didn't l tell you to catch me. Aahhh !!. You bastard , asshole , i***t . Aahhh !!!!, l think my legs are broken . Man : -_- Minutes later Catch her and find Yu Liming at any cost . Concubine Li's angry voice echoed at the other side of the wall . Stella : Aah !!!, l need to get going , it seems Liyue has been caught. Just like that , she got up and runned away. Few moments later . Let go of me !!!, Stella tried hard to fight with Concubine Li's guards but couldn't . This time a young girl was standing beside Combined Li . She was Yu Yimie , one of Liming's step sisters. Unlike her sister Yu zhiling , Yu Yimie was a very daring girl who always liked to bully Liming . Unlike Zhiling who would use manipulative measures I to making Liming to do what she wanted , Yimie always fought with Liming in the Manor and hated Liming to the core yet no one knew why. Stella was dragged and was made to kneel before Concubine Li . Where did you find her. At Suli lake , it seems Lady Liming was trying to jump. You!!!. Do you want to be the end the Yu family , you didn't get any moment to try and commit sucide but now , that the prince has finally sent people for you . What do you mean . It seems your father haven't been told yet . Actually the Emporer's half bred son sent his guards to come and get you. Even thou they will arrive today , they refuse to take you back immediately and would stay here at Yu Palace Manor for some few weeks before sending you to their king. So can you please stop causing trouble if you don't want the Yu family destroyed. Stella : What do you mean , they are going to take me somewhere . I don't want to go anywhere , l don't agree. She just arrived here , how could she leave without finding a way back. Concubine Li : What do you mean by that . You have to go because it's your task to bring honour to the Yu Family. Stella : What !!!. Why can't you send Yu Zhiling or Yu Yimie to bring honour to the Yu family then. Concubine Li : What did you say . l said ...... before Stella could even finish speaking , Concubine Li tried to slap her but she was fast to hold her hand . Suddenly , Stella got dizzy and finally said ,' b***h' before she fainted on the ground. The physician later sold them that Stella fainted because she hadn't eaten since morning and her body was weak due to malnutrition. All they had to do was to feed her well and everything would be alright. Hours later . Liyue !!. A weak voice echoed in the room as she tried to stand up . Liyue what happened , l don't remember anything . Thinking it was due to the temporary amnesia , Liyue explained everything that happened the whole day slowly to Liming . That evening ,as everyone else was asleep . Liming sat on her bed thinking about what Liyue had said. She suddenly took a book and started writing into it . The next day. Mmm!!!, Stella woke up with a splitting headache . Liyue , where's my spicy chicken . I'm hungry . Coming Liming !!! . Liyue appeared with a bowl in her hands. After breakfast , both Liming and Liyue were summoned by Elder Yu . Liming , l heard what happened to you yesterday and l am very disappointed in you . How could you try to commit sucide , do you really want to shame the name of the Yu family. Stella : But l only ...... Elder Yu : I nearly forgot . The main reason why l called you was that , both Liyue and you would move to Zhiling's academy to learn . Since you are going to travel very soon , l hope you learn our culture and heritage well so you don't disgrace us on another Continent Just like that , Elder Yu left in a hurry without even saying goodbye to his daughter. While Liyue and Liming were suddenly walking , Liming suddenly shouted . Liyue thought something bad must have happened and immediately rushed to Liming only to find her pointing at a young man walking in front of them . Liyue !!!.Do you know that man ; Stella said surprised. What was he even doing inside Yu Palace Manor. No!!! but it seems might be one of the guards the prince sent to protect you . A guard , Stella turned to look at Liyue who nodded her head . So the young man from yesterday was just a guard and was acting mighty in front of her . Since his just a guard and mine too , I'm going to make him pay very much for what happened yesterday . Liyue : Oh , l forgot . Liming, will you go to Zhiling's academy to learn. Stella : It will depend on my mood today Liyue : -_- Hours later . Liyue !!!. Get packing , we are going to Zhiling's academy today . Liyue : -_-. huh!!! After paying their respect to Liming's mother , both Liyue and Stella sat in their carriage and set out on their journey to Zhiling's academy. Back in Ming Pavilion , an unextinguished fire kept on burning . Inside laid the letter Yu Liming had written to Stella , and on the table , the book at it's original position. On their arrival to the academy , Stella and Liyue were given a room to stay in. That night , before going to bed , Stella said softly ; Liyue , no need to prepare spicy chicken for me tomorrow . Maybe tomorrow l might not like any spicy food. The next day . Liming woke up early and set out for her class . she was given the class Zhiling was in because the tutors thought because they were sisters , Zhiling would help her but Liming knew that Yu Zhiling would try to use that chance to bully her but she really didn't care . Liming was given books to read and attended different kinds of classes such as beauty , reading and music class. In the evening after dinner , Liyue forced Liming to sneak out of Yuxi academy and went outside to have fun since it was the day of Lantern festival. Outside the academy , Liming bought a lantern and placed it on her mother's grave . After bowing three times to her mom's grave Liming suddenly she felt dizzy and before she knew it , Stella had taken control over her body. Stella : Liyue !!!!. Help me up from the ground . Liyue : Okay , young miss. Stella : What young miss, didn't l tell you to call me by my name . Liyue : -_- . Okay Liming . Hours later . Liyue : Liming !!!, Liming !!!. Let's buy that lantern . Stella : No , it's a wait of money , let's buy food. Liyue : -_-. Does your brain even process when you see food. #quot @: Liyue , let's separate here . #quot@: What do you mean . #quot@: I mean that should go out set ways an buy what we want . #quot@: Liming , what if you get missing . #quot @: No l won't but remember to return here before midnight so that we can return back to the academy . Just like that , both Liming and Liyue went their separate directions. Liming was very busy buying stuffs when she saw someone she never expected to see . It was the guard from the other day . He walked among the crowd and would usually look behind him every now and then , he looked really suspicious so Liming decided to follow him. She followed him until she found herself in some woods she didn't even know existed . It seems l will have to ask Liyue more about this place , she thought. Liming walked and walked until she finally decided that she had lost her way . She walked slowly until she finally heard sounds coming from one direction . She went only to find the guard fight with three different men . She tried to move back but suddenly felt a sword on her throat . Drop your sword or she dies" ; the man behind the finally said as the guard killed the three men he was fighting with . At first the guard looked shocked at first but his it well so his opponent wouldn't see. Even thou Stella wanted to fight , she knew that with one wrong move , the man behind might actually kill her. S..stop ,m.. move back or I'll kill her ; the man said as the guard walked forward slowly. Seeing how anxious the man was , the guard suddenly smile and said " Kill her if you want . I don't know her not do I care about what you to her". Stella : You bastard , I'm going to kill you after getting out of this situation . Just wait and watch. Stella didn't know how but suddenly she got a headache. She felt herself losing conciousness slowly as time went by. She looked back and saw a dagger in the man behind hers chest. She tried to get up but couldn't . Sultan !!! . she heard someone shout but didn't Know who. Before she finally lost conciousness , she felt herself in someone's arms . It felt warm and comfortable . A strange voice echoed in her head like a tune she couldn't forget " RAZIA , I HAVE FINALLY FOUND YOU". l looked at the woman in my arms .I didn't know why I even saved her but it felt as if l knew her for a long time . Slowly I looked at the pendant around my neck and it started glowing as if I've found something I've been searching for . l looked at her and saw her whispering something . Bringing my ears close to her lips , l heard her whisper my name slowly " SULTAN". At the other side of the town , Liyue sat down on a bench waiting for Liming . She waited and waited yet Liming never seem to appear . At last, Liyue concluded that Liming might have been lost so she went to look for Yu Liming but still couldn't find her in the end. At last she went to Yu Palace Manor Crying. Everything and everyone became a mess after they got to know about the situation . The situation became even more sensed as everyone in Yu Palace Manor went out in search of Liming but none could find her . Elder Yu threatened to Liyue that if Yu Liming wasn't found the next morning , he was going to torment and make her life a living hell but was truly afraid that he wouldn't be able to do so since the Emporer would have his head if the Emporer got a hint about the the situation. Liyue was made to Kneel in front of Ming Pavilion under the full moon the whole night . As time went by , morning appeared yet the was no news of Yu Liming. Next day. Liyue balanced her body on a wall sleep since she was sleepy after looking for Liming. Liyue woke up after hearing a large noise coming out of Ming Pavilion. At first she thought she heard Liming calling her name but later thought it might be an illusion. Yet before she knew it , there stood Liming standing at the window , peeping outside in search of her. It was early in the morning. The chirping of birds was heard everywhere as Yu Liming was busily stretching her arms out . Liyue , she whispered but got no reply. Liyue!!! , this time she shouted but still got no respond. Getting up from her bed , she looked through her window to see if she might find Liyue only to find out that she was in Yu Palace Manor and not in Yuxi academy. After looking through the window for hours , Liming finally spotted Liyue kneeling in front of Ming Pavilion. Liyue!!!!, she called out only to find Liyue already looking at her in shock. Liming !!!!, Liyue shouted as she dashed inside Ming Pavilion like a mad woman . Liming was surprised when Liyue hugged her , it felt she didn't like it but remind her of something else. Liyue kept mumbling words that Liming didn't truly understand as she continued hug her tightly. Liyue !!!, Liming called out as she felt herself losing her breath . It felt as if Liyue was trying to strangle her to death. She tapped Liyue but still Liyue refused to let go. At the end , she had no other choice but to push Liyue away. Liyue!!!, what gotten into you?. She screamed out in anger. Hours later. A large bowl of noodles laid on a table as Liming and Liyue were eating. #quot@: Liyue , I don't understand what you said . What do you mean by saying that the whole of yesterday night l went missing . Liming said while putting another spoon of noodles into her mouth. #quot@: What l mean is that after we separated yesterday night , you never returned back . #quot@: But l woke up in Ming Pavilion this morning , didn't l ? #quot@: Yes , you did. But l don't know how you got home . Don't you remember anything . #quot@: No l don't . Even thou l'm trying hard to remember , it feels like the is a blockage in my memory which l get rid of. #quot@: Maybe it might be because of your amesia (amnesia). Stella :-_-!!! Even thou Stella knew that it was not the real reason why she couldn't remember , she made Liyue believe so. She was surprised why no matter how much she tried hard , she couldn't remember but also knew within herself that something must have happened yesterday night. Liming didn't know why but the more she thought about it , the more curious to know about what hahappened . When the news reached Elder Yu that Yu Liming was found , both he and Concubine Li went to Ming Pavilion to see if it was true only to find both Liming and Liyue busily eating . Seeing them happily discussing with each other , Elder Yu forgot his main reason for visiting Yu Liming and got angry . He didn't understand why both he and Concubine Li would have to starve to go in search of this insolent daughter of his only to find her eating happily with her maid. Yu Liming !!!, Liming turned only to find Elder Yu and Concubine Li behind her . You this insolent daughter of mine, haven't you done enough harm already . Don't you get tired when you're always falling into trouble. Aahhh!!!, why can't you be like both of your sisters Yu Zhiling and Yu Yumie. Elder Yu said , his finger pointing at Yu Liming in anger. Stella looked up only to watch Elder Yu who was blabbering . Are you finished ? , she said as she started to feel irritated because Elder Yu talking too much. After hearing what Stella said , Elder Yu even got more angrier. Who are you talking to in that tone ?. Elder Yu screamed as he raised his hands to slap Yu Liming only to find out that she caught his in hand. In anger , Elder Yu command his guards to forcefully drag Yu Liming and Liyue along for he was going to show them who they were messing with but just as she was about to get bout of Ming Pavilion, different men stood in front of them trying to block their way. Where are you taking our princess to???? . At first , Elder Yu wanted to question them for blocking his path but after hearing those words . He immediately knew who those men were . Yu Liming on the other hand didn't know why but felt the voice of the person was so familiar .
