Thaniya, Choon-Hee and the head of the maids got to the Queen's apartment and climbing the staircase up. The two guards at the entrance opened the door from the both side for them as they saw them coming and they went inside without utter a word to each other. The guards closed the door back as they entered and keep standing there.
Three of them were walking faster inside and going to where the Queen was sitting. Thaniya was just looking at the room and she was the one in the middle. There was a maid with the Queen pouring wine for her from a small kettle and attending to her.
"I greet you my Queen, she is here" The head of the maid bow as she greeted and Choon-Hee too did, It was only Thaniya that didn't bow just looking at them. Even except from that Thaniya should not bow for any mortal, she too didn't ready to obey or honor the Queen at all.
"We are sorry for taking so long, she was sleeping when we got there. Am sorry my Queen" The head of the maid quickly explained before she asked and apologized. The Queen did a sign to the maid as she finished pouring the wine and ordering her to step back.
"As you said my Queen" The maid said and stepped back far from them.
"It alright, apology accepted" She said with low voice as she took the small cup and drank the wine.
"Thaniya! My son brought you to the palace to help you out from the jungle, so that doesn't mean you will just be in the palace and doing nothing" Thaniya was just looking at her and didn't say a word.
"From now on, you will join the maids of this palace and be working. Don't even want to make you the palace's maid because it's a great opportunity that many people out there are looking for. But fine, that is your lucky and I hope you heard me" Thaniya didn't reply.
"Be the maid is a great opportunity for you as she said because this is how you will be able to enter any room or chambers and have big opportunity to search for your brother without anybody challenging you on anything" Thaniya heard her mother's voice.
"I hope you are not mute, you can heard me loud and clear!" The Queen said with loud voice and looked at her.
"As you said My Queen" Thaniya said with low voice.
"Your head will lead you through, give you uniform and teach you want to know. All those your wild animal's behaviors must stop, disgusting people and behaving anyhow__ make sure" Her eye went to the necklace on Thaniya's neck again and starring at it.
"What the hell does she staring at me for?" Thaniya said in her mind and she had known it was the necklace. She too was looking at her.
"It's like I have seen this kind of necklace before, where did you get it from?" Queen asked.
"I got it from nowhere, I own it" Thaniya said in a rude manner.
"You sound rude, you are talking to the Queen" Head of the maid shouted at her and Thaniya looked at her with a bad look.
"Thaniya! You have to be calm and play along still you will find your brother not like this. After you have find him, you can draw yourself from be a maid" Thaniya's mother aid.
"As you said Mother" Thaniya said loudly with her mouth closed.
"It's obvious she is very stupid and you need to pass some sense into her" Queen said as she was looking at Thaniya with bad eye and staring at the necklace.
"Is it your mother or anyone that passed the necklace to you? Because it's like I have seen it on someone's neck before. It's a strange necklace because I don't think I have never seen it on in world before"
"I own it my Queen" Thaniya replied with low voice.
"Take her out, go and tell her what to know, also my daughter will arrived today so make sure you start preparing different meals ready for her because she can arrives soon"
"As you said my Queen, I will start doing that" She said with low voice and bow.
"You can go now, and start that as soon as possible" She took the cup of wine.
"Yes my Queen' all of them bow except from Thaniya as they wanted to turn back and been leaving the room.
The princess went to spend some days with the man that she wanted to get married to in a Kingdom that was a neighboring kingdom to them after the seven JAE-HWA kingdoms.
The relationship was like arranged marriage. It was the man that loves the Princess not that she too loves him back but there was nothing she could do because the man was powerful so getting marriage to him would make their own kingdom to be more powerful. And the most important part of it was that, it will make Jae-Hwa's family to be extended to another Kingdom.
"Choon-Hee! Step back, don't go yet" The Queen called her back and Thaniya looked at her.
"As you said my Queen" She stepped back and looking at Thaniya and their head leaving the room. Thaniya stopped thinking of anything, calm her mind and stretch her ears so that she could be hearing everything that they were saying as she was going out.
"It's like I have seen that necklace on Thaniya's neck before, where did she tell you that she got it from?"
"I am surprised as well because it's not like she brought it from the jungle because I am the one that offloaded her belongings and wash the cloth that she off and I didn't see anything like that in her bag. It's this morning as she woke up that I saw the necklace on her neck. I even asked her but she didn't say anything just 'thank you!" Choon-Hee said with low voice and looked at the Queen.
"The only thing is that, it's like she too was surprised seeing the necklace on her neck because of her reactions as I said so. Hope you don't have any problem with the necklace my Queen?"
"Not! Just that the necklace is not common. I can't really remember but it's like ten it's only one person or even two I use to see them using it. Thinking maybe it's not a group or cult log" Queen said with low voice and trying to remember.
"I will work on it my Queen, I will find out from her"
"Make sure you do that, you can go" Choon-Hee bow, turned back and leaving the room.
The Queen put her hand on the chair and went into a deep thought, wanted to know who she saw the necklace with and want it's for.
'How dare you! In my palace doing as if two of you are Queens here. What nonsense this, what is the mean of this useless necklaces that you are using around, remove it now!' The Queen was remembering the past in her brain as she was seating down.
'Sorry my Queen, It's friend's logo and nothing more. We are sorry, we can't remove it' Choon-Hee's mother said.
'What concern me with friendship? Remember you are maids here so don't dare to be acting anyhow. Removed it now and get out' Queen hearing herself saying in her brain.
'Done my Queen, no necklace on our neck again' Thaniya's mother said. None of them removed it just made it invisible for her at that movement.
"Eh! That are those who have it that time and said it was just for friendship. I killed that useless girl by burning and I know how Choon-Hee's mother too dead and burnt so where did that animal girl get her own from" She said with loud voice.
"I always use to buy jewelries but I have never cross apart that particular necklace before. I need to know more about that necklace, it's for something. That prostituted was burnt with her own and same to Choon-Hee's mother too. There must be something about the necklace" she took the last cup of wine and drank everything, the maid walked closed to pour more.
"Why is she so concern about the necklace?" Thaniya asked her mother as she was getting down from the Queen's chamber.
"Don't mind her, don't worry she won't remember anything again about the necklace or finds out about it. It's too early for her to know where you are from"
"Thaniya! I will first take you to the room where you will change to the uniform before introducing you to others" Head of the maid was talking to her but she didn't hear just keeps walking.
"It will better she doesn't because what is her problem" Thaniya said with loud voice.
"I will tell you what you will be doing after I introduce you to them so that they won't be comparing you with themselves. You are my friend so I must help you" For the help Thaniya did for her, saving her from falling she had choose Thaniya as her friend.
"Thaniya! You are not talking back, why? Is anything wrong" Thaniya didn't hear anything. If she had been talking to her mother always used to gone far from people around her.
"Thaniya! Thaniya!!" Head of the maid stopped walking.
"Thaniya! Pay attention to your Head, she has got disturbed for talking to you since and no response from you" Thaniya's mother said.
"Oh! Right mummy" Head of the maid had forced Thaniya to stop walking along the corridor that they were and keeps shouting her name like she fainted.
"Our head! What is it? Are you okay?" Thaniya asked.
"I suppose to me asking you that, talking to you, and no response. Calls you like several times, no reply from you and you are asking me if I am okay. That should be for you" She said with loud voice.
"Oh! What are you saying?" Head of the maids looked at her.
"Let's keep walking, i will tell you when we get there" She said with low voice, looking at Thaniya with her right eye and thinking of would be wrong with her.
