~Third Person's POV~
Zess thought of his words for the first time for words as he began to remember the shards of his past, when he met a girl living alone in the middle of the forest...
She helped him while his lost and offers her food though its not that extravagant he greatly enjoys it especially his time with the mysterious for two years.
Until the assissination of his parents...
He refuse to go outside due to the fear of his surroundings. Five years ago, in his first year of ascending the throne,he heard the girl was involved in a fire at the forest.
He blamed himself greatly for the lost of his very important friend.
The stress at his young body build up.
The loss has became pain and the fear becomes a trauma.
Which caused him to lost a part of his memory.
After 2 months his back on his feet.
He became an icy Prince who know nothing but revenge and hate to his surroundings.
Much to his cousins dismay during his reign he capture the people behind the murder and sue the illegal negotiations happened within the kingdom, as it became prosperous and powerful as years past up until this day.
With all his memories came back he began to loose his balance and fall unto his knees, heavily breathing while holding his head in pain.
Mary immediately rushed to the princes side, asking what happened panicking.
Zess shouts out of pain and sweating a lot.
Mary which has no idea what happened asks him what's wrong but he cannot reply because of the immense pain his feeling.
Her mind became blank and only hugs him tightly, while bursting out tears.
While saying "I'll be here, you won't loose anyone anymore." It took a minute until the groaming stops and Zess collapsed.
She asks for help and was heard by Io along with some guards...
(A Moment Later)
Mary was waiting outside of the Prince's room crying and trembling,while thinking that this had happened because of her.
Later the Doctor and Prince Io came out telling her not to worry because everything is okay.
"He has been given medical attention so hes gonna be fine, though it might take a days or weeks for him to wake up since hes also contracted a high fever from stress and fatigue and also, there might be a possibility that he will or wont remember a thing,Still please stay by his side." the Doctor explained.
Io begs Mary to be at Zess side because he need to go back at the Ball to clear the ruckus.
Mary sat beside him while holding his hand, she was devastated to see him in sorrowful state heavily breathing..
"It was fear and anxiety due to the trauma youve experienced, You faced all the hardships to yourself... It was my fault to push you to my feelings not knowing your situation I'm very sorry, you lost your memories and regained the pain because of me, I'm a taboo to you at the very beginning two worlds can't collide for the two of us. I think I need to move on and make a brand new goal I'll let you go... I cant bare to see the person I love way worse than this...I really Love You, Prince Zess..."
Is letting go a sign of a sad ending?
