ROMANCE OF FLOWER AND FOX

NEW PLACE, NEW ADVENTURE, NEW KNOWLEDGE, EVERYTHING NEW……

              A new day has started and I was not sure whether am I doing the right thing or no. But behalf of all this chaos I didn’t forget my motive of coming here. So, actually I decided to stay here as the son of the King is also nearby as I have already reached inside the palace. I just have to make connections and ask them about him and make him acquaintance and ask him for his blood then return to my kingdom. It is not that easy as it seems to be. But I have to take a chance. I know that after my return everyone would be sad, or as I am thinking they will not even come to know about the disappearance and will think that I was in the meditative mountain.

             I was not aware about the work. In my school of my kingdom, we used to work and clean the classes. We used to grind ink for the Head master the whole day if we were mischievous in the class. So, I was expecting the work to be same as per my knowledge. But it turned out to be completely different form my imagination. There were many beautiful young girls in white gown and they were sitting in front of the mirror and a person was applying something on someone’s face. Some was working with the hairs on the girls on white. Some girls were helping the people in white to wear their veils and many things were going on. Not only there were many girls in white who were getting ready, but even women with golden, black, pink, blue and different colors gown. Everyone was amazing and was looking in a completely different, compared to the look in which they have arrived. I thought it was some kind of a magic and did ask the man in white everything in details. He said the women in white are the bride. I have heard that in weeding the bride wear white, but I have just heard about it. I didn’t had a chance to ever see that. So, I forgot. Then I asked about the women in different dresses. He said they are here to get ready for going in some party or in a wedding. Then I asked the man to teach me the spell of the magic. He burst into laughter and did ask me whether I too know magic. 

            So, I was shocked and noticed that everyone here is a low ranked and they work with their hands and not with the help of magic. So, I replied him in a friendly way that I was just joking. So, he asked me to observe the work and then put my hands into it. This is a very reputed boutique, even the prince, princess and even queen comes here. As I heard about the royals there was a great smile on my face. I repeated his words like stupid, “prince, princess and even the Queen, OMG! It’s a great opportunity.” So, then I asked him in excitement. While I get the opportunity to see them and play with them. So he just said that’s up to your behavior.

       I thought for a while and sorted some stuffs. Firstly, I have to work hard so that later they take me in their good books. Then when I understand the rules and the people around then I will go out and collect some information of the Fox prince. So for the next whole month, I worked day and night and with some simple tricks of magic made people happy and made my work go smoothly.

          Almost around 6 moths I was a master. People knew me name as ‘Maria’. I did say my name is Maria so that there are no Suspicions in the future. Truth to be told, I decided adapt this name. So, that I remember it day and night about the reason for me coming here. If the terms would have been good. I would have enjoyed my tour to the Fire Realm. As I have seen this is a very beautiful Kingdom. But as people call me Maria, my pain is been scratched time to time so that it is not healed and I don’t forget my responsibility.

           There are Many nobles who became my friend and used to look for me. I knew that the kingdom had 3 princes and 1 princess. The Water Prince, who was the eldest amongst all died in the war 4000 years ago. He was known as the Lord of the War. The second prince is a Phoenix and the Empress was not his mother. So, he didn’t have much power and authorities with him. But as he was a filial and a very hardworking son. The South border military was handled by him. He was known as a very efficient and appreciative person. He was very famous amongst the females in the Court for his lovely Look. Then the Third Prince is the one for whom I am here for and he is a fox. He is the son of the Emperor and the Empress and the Princess is a Bird. Even she is the daughter of the Empress. The Princess name is Kayla and she often visited me here as she was fond of my style.

          In fact, she even takes me to the restaurant for drinks and I got all the information from her. I tried to ask more about the Third Prince Liam, but she seldom talks about him. So, as of now I know that he is in isolation himself as per the prediction of the saint that an Omen is about to come after him. I think the Saint has predicted about me coming and taking his blood from heart which can be harmful for him. I just hope that It would happen easily and I hope that I could give him something in return so that it would be dealt wisely.

         My days were going fine. I always missed Aunt Lucy, Madam Kim, Head Madam Lilim. Most importantly I miss Maria. I wish my efforts would not go in Vain and I would be able to see Maria again before my life ends.
