Linie and Jen were still setting the table and after they were done Mom asked them to leave us alone that she wanted to talk to me in private,they both left.
For a moment I thought that maybe Mom wanted to ask me what had happened because I believed she knew nothing about it.
So she started the conversation after Linie and Jen had left and closed the door from behind.
Mom: how are you feeling now?
I:am fine mom. (I didn't want to get her so much worried) so I had to lie to her.
Mom: how did he start telling you about the proposal? Was he calm?
I: yes he was.
Mom: so what's your say about it?
I: am not yet ready for marriage mom.
Mom: did you tell your dad about your say?
I: no mim. I didn't because it's of no use.
Mom: you have become a sensitive lady my child. May Lord bless you with happiness.
I: thanks Mom. I love you so much. But I want you to do something for me.
Mom: what's that child?
I: I want you to keep dad occupied so that he doesn't fix the engagement ceremony very soon.
Mom: you know that your father is not the kind of person who gets convinced so easily.
I: I have an idea.
Mom: tell me dear, I can do anything for you even if it is fighting the whole world for you.
I: you have to pretend to be sick for the next two weeks.
Mom: oh.what if..hushhh. I cut her off before she could complete the sentence. Alright then. So tell me when I should start putting this plan in action.
"Right now, mother. We don't know when dad is planning to leave the palace so you have to fall sick first that."
"Alright my daughter."
I was somehow fine because I had realized that my mom was with me in everything I was planning.
I was lost in my thoughts for some times.
"What are you thinking now my child." Mom asked.
"I feel good that you have chosen to support me in this tough situation."I said.
"I will always do that my child. Every mother in this world feels happy seeing her children Happy too and feels shattered when her children are in any sort of danger or sorrow." Said mother.
"Thank you mother, but don't worry your daughter is very strong than this pain in my heart." I said.
I said all that because I didn't want her to fall apart because of worrying about me every time.
I wanted her to think of something else not me. She was my strength and seeing my strong person falling down would have brought fear in my heart.
I didn't want to allow that happen no matter what happened.
"I am proud of you my dear, at least I know you can fight any battle for yourself my darling." Mom said.
@Keep reading my people. More chapters ahead. I love you big.
