Salvino is such an idiot
Well, I can't help but be worried a little!
After a couple of hours, we were in the middle of the ocean
the boat had a lot of luggage, but it was a well-made spacious boat.
I looked at Kendrick, and he was spacing out and looking at the stars
It is night-time, and the stars were beautiful and bright, and I couldn't help not look at it and just feel sleepy
Kendrick then looked at me and asked
" So what is your story?"
" Well, if you tell me your story first, I will tell you mine!" I said
" Are you curious about a commoner like me?" Kendrick asked
" Well, why not? I mean, is being a commoner a sin? are you ashamed to talk to me? if you are, don't be!" I said
" I am not ashamed, your majesty! I just...well, if you say your story, I will tell you mine!" Kendrick said
" I don't have a lot of things that happened in my life...I lived happily with my mother and father, and everyone knew how lovely our family was until I got into a coma and suddenly my father decided to ban my mother from entering the palace and keep that good for nothing woman called Harionago and she is trying to get rid of me and my father didn't bother protecting me. when my mother left Salvino left with her because he came to work just for the queen. Why did he even let me stay if he was going to be like that? Then I ran away because the guards were trying to kill me but Salvino followed me and saved me, I would praise Salvino until the day I die. I would give him all the money in the world and it wouldn't repay his kindness. then what happened was I worked as a swordsmith." I said
" Why would you want to be a swordsmith?" Kendrick asked
" Well...because in that village, there is a man who is a swordsmith that makes swords in a graceful way. You would love to watch him all day and not even get bored, and I do love making swords, but this man was in the queen's side sadly...and now I am here, " I said
"But you seem rather unbothered, maybe happy!" Kendrick said
" I am happy. I mean, after all that, Salvino sent a letter to make me a guard and make him swords, but it was just an excuse for bringing me to his mansion to take care of me as one of his family. Although I was getting injured a lot I quite enjoyed the training He is such a strict teacher though" I said
" Is that all? I mean, there has to be another reason that you are happy!" He said
" Well, Salvino has a sister her name is Marina she is the same age as me our first encounter wasn't the best but she came with a basket full of cookies and they were absolutely good and amazing and..." I said
"And...?" He asked
" Well, I really like her, but she is engaged already, so she is taken but I think I have a chance" I said enthusiastically
"I like your confidence kid" He said
" Yeah...but the truth is she might marry him, and I don't want to be disappointed nor would I want steal someone's lover," I said
" Yeah... but it doesn't hurt to be selfish from time to time, am I right?" He said
" Maybe...what about your story?" I asked
"...so my mother was a very hard worker she worked as a maid and she did well but my father had some serious spending addiction and my mother got mad and told him to find a job and he did. my mother became very ill and well... she is in a better place now...my mom wasn't very nice she neglected me and never looked my way my father though treated me like I was his treasure so I have a very strong bond with my father after my mother's death I was worried about my father. I thought he might get ill, too. I mean, I don't want to lose him, and that is why I never left his side. I was stuck like glue to him, and then I looked at my father's face, and he looked very worried. I asked him why he looked sad? " Oh son, I am not sad. I am just worried our money isn't enough but don't worry, I will work harder!"
I felt worried and although I was a burden to him, I tried my best to find jobs, and they all rejected me because I had a small figure they thought I would snap if I carried something heavy and I told them I can handle the hard work but they never believed me" He said
" Well, I can't believe you, I mean, look at you! you have huge muscles. How come you had a small figure ? I honestly can't imagine you with a small figure" I said
" I work out, of course, now let us continue... so one day, while trying to find a job, I heard loud noises from a hidden door I a dark ally between two buildings , so I went there to see what this noise was all about and so it was the noise of a big match! and I wanted to participate because I learned that there is a big prize money and I just signed up and entered they were sceptical at first, but they said okay, they didn't care about blood shed unless you are a noble . I entered and contestant after contestant were passing by like a breeze, and they looked at me like I was a weirdo
I won them all and got the prize money, " He said
" HOW...?" I asked
" My father and I practised fighting with each other since I was very young, so I guess I got skills." He said
" But when I came home that day with the prize money, my father was waiting for me and looked at me angrily and said " YOU IDIOT WHAT THE HELL HAVE YOU DONE YOU WORRIED ME TO DEATH...I mean a few days ago you were just stuck to me like I was the source of your safety and..." And then I said," Father, that isn't it. I was following you around because I am worried that you might fall ill like mother. I don't want you to leave me!"
My father then opened his arms and said, " Don't grow up too fast, okay?" My father was the best father I could ever ask for. We might not be financially stable, but we were happy!" He said and stopped talking and looked up to the stars
" I am sorry about your father!" I said
" Oh, you thought I looked up to the stars like that because I am sad? I just remembered how my father was so kind." He said, then added after looking at me
" No, no, ahem...you think I am worried about my father now? I will tell you a little secret of mine, my "father." That was held hostage is a fake. My real father is a strong leader for an army now," He said, smiling
" Whoa, how did you do that?" I asked
" So after the day of that match, people came to our house and told my father how talented I was, and they want to train me and have matches held for me but I had to change my identity and my father had to cut contacts with me!" He said
" Huh, why would they do that?" I asked
" Because people are cruel once I beat one of them, they would like to take revenge and kill my beloved father. You might ask why they would do such a thing? Because their dignity as fighters is everything!" He said
" Oh yeah, you are right!" I said
" I actually agreed, and Father looked at me hurt, and they told him that I would be okay. The only way he contacted was through letters, and well, my father agreed and said to be careful, and I said I would. " He said
" Okay, what happened next?" I asked
" This was the worst turn of my life because I was treated like an absolute dog, and that is when I became rebellious and such from this point on I had a lot of money so I spent a lot on weird stuff . The queen then discovered such a weird creature like me
First rebellious second money third knows how to fight
fourth has a lot of friends and a lot of ties and then asked me where my family was? I looked at her weird and then told her I didn't have any, but she knew I had a father, but she doesn't know how my father looks like so II hired someone to be my father and surprise she didn't really hold my father hostage!" He said
" You are smart but you technically lied to me to come with me" I said
" Not really, but I had trust issues, and I lived a weird life, so I just went with her crazy orders, and I really didn't know what I was doing. I am sorry, Prince, and sorry for lying about my family, " He said while looking worried
" I will think about it" I said
" I am sorry I will do anything in order for you to forgive me!" He said
" Do you know! I am literally a fallen prince, so what is up with all of you being scared of me not forgiving you? I mean, I don't have any power!" I said
" I don't know if you knew that, but when you are angry, you have that intimidating aura, so that is kind of enough honestly, and I want you to be our king someday you seem like you would be a good ruler and everyone will look up to you!" He said
" we will see about that!" I said
We both talked a lot, and I learned that he was a lunatic I kind of regret taking him with me but honestly...I would feel lonely without anyone beside me
Kendrick became a Baron because of the queen and how he become strong
It became morning, and I slept like the dead until someone disturbed my sleep with a loud shout
" CALIX...CALIX WAKE UP WE ARE HERE!" Kendrick said
I opened my eyes and looked at him confused
" WE HAVE ARRIVED," He said
" Yeah, yeah, sure!" I said
When I woke up for real, I was taken a back, and the island was so beautiful
Kendrick and I walked around until we found a mansion
I entered and found a note on the table
And on that note, it said
Do you like this island? Her majesty, your mother bought it for you when you were a baby to give it to you as a gift so enjoy
-Salvino
I was so happy I accidently broke the floor
Kendrick ran to me and fell in the hole
" How? Did you gain weight?" He asked
I smacked him on the head and said
" That is rude Kendrick!" I said
" Sorry, your majesty, but you shouldn't smack someone who is older than you...!" He said
" How old are you?" I asked
" I am 38 years old!" He said
" WHAT YOU CAN'T BE! YOU LOOK YOUNG DON'T LIE TO ME !" I said
" I really am your majesty even so I look older than you!" He said
I looked at him weirdly
" Call me Mr. Kendrick!" He said
" No way!" I said
" You can call me big brother Kendrick then !" He said
" How we aren't even brothers!" I said
" We can be brothers with a bond. We don't need connections by blood!" He said
I glared at Kendrick and then I looked around and found the stairs, and then went to bed
I felt bad because I gave him that attitude, but I felt mad for some reason
