"Mommy wake up!"
A little hands tapped vian's face.
She get up with a heavy head.
'Ugh Where are we now?'
"Uhhhh my head hurts"
Looking around the place, we're still in the forest.
We successfully escaped.
I'm glad, finally i can breathe and be at ease.
my son is now safe.
"Mommy are you okay?"
Staring at his worriedly face.
How can the emperor kill this innocent child?
I hug him tightly.
"Yes baby. We're safe now"
We are safe from your father.
"But mom, where are we?"
"You've never meet daddy before right? Your gonna meet him soon dear"
And that is the biggest lie i said.
The emperor never meets him. Because the emperor already believes that this child is not his.
My child is yearning from his fathers' love since then. I felt sorry for my son being neglected by his own father.
This is all my fault.
If i did not become so greedy and fought to become the empress for the man i have deeply loved.
His blue eyes is beaming beautifully.
I know this kind of look.
His excitement to meet his father for the first time.
"let's go"
—
After walking in hours we haven't found any village!
Don't tell me we're LOST?
Are we just gonna die here??!
No! I won't accept this!
There must be a hidden tracks or anything I could find.
"Mommy look!"
"Not now alec."
My eyes are roaming around the forest. Maybe there's a way we can go out here.
"But there's a boy!"
My eyes widened looking at the side where his little finger pointed.
A boy hiding in the trunk of the tree. But there's more to it!
"I can't believe this.."
i gasped. Shockingly!
He looks exactly like alec! Same face, same eyes! Only his hair color is not blonde but black.
If anyone sees them they might think they're twins!
"Hey? Are you okay? Are you lost baby?"
Asking him charmingly would be better. He looks scared though.
"It's okay.. you can come near us, we're not going to hurt you"
He flinch a little while staring his eyes at me.
"You.are.mother" His small voice echoed.
Maybe he is with her mother but got separated?
And even his voice sounds like alec. Is this coincidence? Looking at his clothes, I'm sure he's not a commoner but a noble.
"Uwahhh!! Mother! Wahhh"
As he came running towards me
Now why is this kid suddenly crying?
Why is seeing this child crying breaks my heart?
"Hey baby, what's wrong? Hush now"
I immediately get to him to hug in my arms.
"M-mother your back now, i miss you! I've been waiting for you"
Does he think I'm his mother? Maybe i look like his mother?
He continued sobbing and crying.
He must be so glad to finally be able to meet his mother. But i am not his mother!
And it breaks my heart to tell him that. I can't.
"Hush baby, I'm here now. I won't leave you anymore"
"Mother huhuh!" Alec's crying voice echoed too.
Now alec is crying too! Ehhh! Why??
"Come here alec, why are you crying baby?"
"Coz he's crying too!" Pointing the black haired boy with his tiny fingers.
Did i give birth to twins that i did not know?
This is crazy! both of them are crying.
"Hush now my babies! Mommy loves you two so much"
As I kissed them both in their cute and chubby cheeks they stopped crying.
"Master Cain!! Where are you?!"
A man's voice echoed in the forest. He's near.
"Who's that?"
"Mother i think it's the captain. He's looking for me"
So he's name is cain. It suits him.
"Cain you need to go home now"
Maybe his family is panicking now. This kid came here alone in the forest! his parents might be dead worried.
"I'm here uncle ruiz!" His little voice shouted. Ahh its so cute!
Then a man in his black uniform came running fast to us.
This is good! I can get help now and get out in this forest!
"Master! Why did you suddenly disappear like that! Your great grandfather is worried!"
"I'm fine. Mother is with me. I found her!"
The man looked at me with awe,
he stood with his eyes shaking.
"No- im not-" he cut me off.
"Milady!! It's really you!"
Eh?
