" I am not afraid of storms, for I am learning how to sail my ship"
** At the Royal Garden **
Dion is seen squatting beside a flower and talking to it.
" Why is my life different i do not even know my origin, I don't know who I am, I don't even know my real parents, who exactly am I ". He has asked himself this question for over a dozen time and can not seem to figure it out.
As he standing up, he happened to touch the flower beside him by mistake only to see it wither moments after he touched it and that scared him out.
" Even the flowers reject me haahaha am cursed " he said to himself as tears began coming out of his eyes.
" No am a boy, boys don't cry " he told himself but the more he thought about it the more tears come out. He turned around to go only to see his father in front of him.
Charis felt heartbroken when he saw his son like that it broke his heart " I am sorry " he said and stretched out his hands to touch his face.
Dion slapped his hands and yelled " Don't touch me go away "
But Charis turned a deaf ear to his words and hugged him. Dion kept on yelling as Charis hugged him but instead of releasing his hold on him Charis hugged him more.
In this situation he is not a father, or a general but rather a father who felt heartbroken.
" I am sorry for lying to you all those years am sorry for hiding the truth from you but that was my only option and beside I did it out of love and care i didn't want to hurt you but it seems i was wrong ". After saying those things Charis hugged him tighter.
" I can't breathe, you are suffocating me " Dion said helplessly
" Oh oh am sorry, I got carried away by my emotions " Charis immediately released him but the air around them became a bit awkward.
After releasing him bent down and looked straight into his eyes and told him " Am sorry and I promise never to lie to you again " he said as he ruffled Dion's hair.
" I don't trust you " Dion replied with a bit of uncertainty un his voice.
" I promise so do you forgive me "
After thinking for a while Dion replied
" Promise" he queried.
" Yes I promise "
" Okay I forgive you "

While in a room upstairs Aspas and Zephyr were looking at them through a window with envy and muderous gaze hidden in their eyes which was obviously directed at Dion.
" Some times i wonder why we get different treatment when we are obviously fathers real child " Zephyr said with a frown and anger laced in his voice
" Yeah it bothers me too its like we are not his own children " Aspas replied with an unhappy expression.
" We need to do something about this, like have him killed" Zephyr said with a menacing gaze and hatred in his eyes.
" You talk like you can defeat him, you couldn't defeat him in a friendly fight now you are talking about killing him with that measly strength of yours " Aspas snapped at him and looked at him in mockery.
