Chapter 10 - Chapter 10

I enter my hut I lied down on my bed with full of thought Who knows whether prince Max will accept what am about to tell him without telling both our parents, let it not bring problem between my parents and his parents, but why should I care when they didn't care of my own feelings. Even due, they are still my parents and I love them so much, anything that comes out today between me and prince Max I will take it like that let me have some sleep before they arrived. I was trying to get some sleep when I heard a knock.

"My princess your highness request your presence at the palace. Mar said.:

My mind jumped up maybe they are here, how will I appear in they presence.Tell him I will be with him shortly Mar left. I looked at myself in the mirror to check how I look, Hmmmm I smiled am beautiful already no need of looking at myself in the mirror.

I left my hut start going towards the palace as I was heading I sight them, they were all being seated exchanging greetings between both of them.

Queen Lina sighting me from afar starting smiling with she touch her son to look where I was coming, with the look and shyness in me I missed my steps nearly to fall but as a princess i am I have to comport myself.Getting there I greeted them by kneeling before king Richmond that was symbols of respect. Good day your highness.

"Good day my goddess, stand up you don't have to kneel before your father in-law, just take me as your father cause soon you will be living with us as a crown Princess of Anara kingdom wife to the crown prince Max my son. King Richmond help Princess to stand rather he embraced her with so much love and happiness.:

Good day Queen Lina."

"Good day my daughter, don't call me that is high time you start addressing me as your mother not your queen. Meanwhile you look more beautiful more than before She embraced her and kissed her.:

Princes Max was smiling like someone that won lottery waiting for his own greeting, should I kneel or I should just greeted him .I know is our tradition to greet any body that is married to you or about to marry you. Anyway am doing this for my parent's sake if is only left for me I will not greet him talk more of kneeling, I pretend to fake smile. Good day my prince kneeling with a fake smile.

" Good day my princess, you look beautiful and attractive love your dressing. Prince said with smiles full with pride.:

Thank you my prince I appreciate. I want to my mother side to have a sit, when seated I was expecting next of their actions of coming but before then, food was served they need to refreshe themselves before presenting their intentions of coming. when we all seated on the round table were the food was served.Prince max was busy admiring me, cutting eye for me . I noticed my mother and his mother were looking at us with smiles.

*Hmm hmm hmmm King Richmond needed attentions of everybody here my friend he calls my father, Thanks for welcoming us in your palace and the refreshment.:

"Is nothing my friend, king Kenneth said (Our people said frog don't used to run in a day time for nothing) . I know something important brought you and your queen here what is it my friend i pray i can be a help for whatever that brought you here.:

*My friend you have said it all, (Our people also said if you need something from chief priest you must go to him not for him to come to you,) that's why we are here it has being years we paid half of princess Anora marriage rite when she was a baby, we are here to do the needful i mean everything needed to be done so that we can take her as our wife. King Richmond said.:

"My friend you spoke well, and is also true on what you just said but the issues here. Princess Anora my daughter have not fully grown up to become a wife, as a parents is our duty to watch our children get married it is the happiness of every parents secondly they needed to give sometimes to know themselves for not having problem in their marriage, you know youth of this days their ways are not same with our time. King Kenneth said.:

*My friend King Richmond called, all you said is right and very good but let it not be their will reject themselves as times come for their proper time. As you said their ways are different from ours.:

When the discussion was going on between king Kenneth my father and king Richmond. Queen liza my mother interfered.

*Your highness Queen liza said, i know am not to interfere in your discussions but they are also our children which we are concerned, my own opinion is both children are not fully grown up talk more of understanding the word marriage why not we give them time to know each other like my husband said, before concluding their marriage that's my own suggestion.:

*Your highness i agreed on this Queen liza's suggestion i think is best for us to let our children to decide when their are ready. At least the opportunity wasn't given to them when their were small now their have gown up, let's give them this opportunity for once. Said queen lina.:

"Our queens have said their own opinions my friend, This one queen lina i so much agreed with her king Kenneth said, what do you think concerning this their opinions king Richmond.:

*Nothing else to say, they have said it all my friend, i too agreed on this their opinions it seems we are pushing it far but i believe their love themselves without time their we will make us know when they are fully ready. said king Richmond.:

In my heart i was very happy of how my mother and queen lina spoke, it seems this king Richmond and queen lina are good people and their have respect on others despite being wealthy being in their house one will not lack love and care but where do this their son learn how to insult and disrespect his elders. Or maybe what i just saw on that day was another thing different I just concluded. Nobody knows he maybe a good and nice boy like his parents. Was on thought when I heard someone called my attentions back.

*My princess. Prince max called what are you thinking i have be calling you since but you seems adornment What is it that is broadening you before then let's excuse our parents, to talk outside.:

As least this is my opportunity to ask him the favor I wanted to ask, I said within me.

*Your highness king Kenneth I need to ask for your permission to speak to princess outside. Also take a walk with her hope my request will be granted.:

"My son you don't need to ask for permission to talk to your princess or for a walk after all soon she's going to be your wife. But I admire your courage and respect this shows you are the true son of your father you can go with her.:

"Thank you so much your highness for permitting me I promise to bring her in a good shape.:

Hmmmmm this boy is willed trained but why did I dislike him all this why or is him just pretending, anyways with me walking with him I will find out whether his pretending or not. We left our parents presence he holds my hands, maids and guards where at our back guarding us.

"My princess you heard what our parents said concerning our marriage, what do you think we should move ahead or wait small like they suggested. Your own opinion matters a lot before mine.:

My Prince there's something that has being bordering me, I need a little favour from you hope you will not finds it as an insult or other way round.

"Anything for my princess by the way, why should i find your favour offensive or insult no I will not you are free to ask me whatever you want am all ears. He smiles:.

My Prince I want to tell you that, I don't like you talk more of loving you secondly I don't want to be your wife. I want to marry who I love also make mine own choice when I finished he started smiling, hmmmm why is he smiling this didn't look funny.

"'My princess you are funny with your favour of yours why you don't want to be my wife first before asking you of not loving me.,:

My Prince best known to me.

"No my princess there's something that lead to that cause I can remembered when we are growing up, we loved ourselves so much that we find it difficult to be separated something makes you to start hating me what is it my princess be free and I promise to understand you very well.:

OK since you said so I will tell you there was a day I was coming to visit you with my maids, I saw you yarning am old woman as if you wanted to beat her up I got very angry so I left with my maids without reaching your palace.

"No wonder you stop visiting the palace I was very worried then when you stop coming even my parents have asked me several time whether we heard a fight I said no. But you didn't acted like my princess I know, you would have acquired from me before concluding. My princess that's unfair I thought we have known each other for a long time but with this am hearing we don't know ourselves, that's why you hated me with so much passion.

let me tell you what happen that day, that woman you saw me yarning at did sometime bad she went to her follow women farm to harvest her crops without the woman knowing but when she was coming out from there, somebody saw her but hide, she went and told the owner of the farm what she saw,

the next day the woman went to her farm to harvest her crops that's when she find out some body has harvested all her crops. The issue was brought to the palace my father, the king wasn't around I have to judge the case cause one day I will be the one ruling the kingdom without my father sitting besides me. The woman was brought to the palace but to my surprise she denied it without her knowing there's witness.When the witness was brought up she tries to denied it in my present, I send some guards to go and investigate at her place which they did. She was finds guilty of the woman crops, with the angry in side me I nearly wanted to behead her but looking at her, she's very poor, she said she and her children have not eaten for days now but that is not what would have made her to steal. I have pity on her, but She should have come to the king to ask for help, I know my father he loves his people, he would have helped, than stealing.

Stealing in our kingdom is a serious offence, I settled the matter before the arrival of the king. If the king heard of it he will banish the woman from our kingdom. That's what happened that day. Please my princess whenever you see or heard something about me approach to me I promise to explain then keeping it to yourself, if I didn't come with my parents or have a walk with you today, I wouldn't have known your problem and what you have in your mind against me. Is there anyother thing that is broadening you or you want to asked about me fill free to ask, I promise to you tell everything not but the truth.
