Aurelia bows to the crown prince william.
" My greatest apologies your royal highness! I didn't recognize you please forgive me "
" No, its alright really your really brave and i like that about you " says william and he gives her a wink.
" ha..haha..ha i am really grateful...thank you"
Aurelia turns to the blue gem as she was about to ask the price of the gem William interrupts her.
" No my beautiful lady I'll pay for this beautiful gem please don't trouble yourself with this "
" But...i can your royal highness...please.."
" No my lady, sir can you pack this up I'll be paying for this "
After the crown prince William buys the gem for Aurelia. Aurelia asked William how can she repay him for buying the gem for her even though it was unnecessary for him to buy it for her.
" If you really want to repay me just call me William not your royal highness "
Aurelia nods and thanks william then walks away from William and the hoodied man with him.
" Your didn't asked her name ? Did you forgot ? " asked the hoodied man.
" .....you didn't told me...i totally forgot..."
Back to her mansion , Aurelia was abit nervous about giving the blue gem to her father but still she went to his office room and knocks on it.
" Father may i come in ? "
" Ah! Aurelia my dear please come in "
She goes in holding the packed gem in her hand a thought comes to her mind " can she fixes her relationship with her father ?". If she can then her father will love her too, she will never feel lonely again.
" Father i bought this gem for you, when i saw this gem it remained me of you father...."
Aurelia when silent looking away from her father hoping that he will like the gife.
" A gem? You bought this from your money ?"
" yes, well actually..."
" Why ? Why did you buy a stone this ugly with the money you have just inherited ! Are you stupid !? I knew you don't think twice on how you spend your money thats why i asked you to sign the documents!!..."
When Aurelia saw him getting this angry on her, she realized one thing that her father was not scolding her for being careless he was scolding her because she spend her inherited money.
" i am sorry father "
" do you think your sorry is enough for how you spend your money on this stupid stone ' sigh ' take this stone with you i don't want it "
She walks out of the room only to find Ophelia who was laughing at her the same way she did when she was kicked out.
She runs out of the mansion, not knowing here to go she runs towards the cemetery. Aurelia stands in front of her mother grave which still had the fresh flowers from the feneral.
" Mother why did you not told me about my father. Why did you just left me all alone here, i promised you that I'll be strong but here i am, in front of you all weak"
She sits down close to her mother grave tears flows down her face.She then and there makes an oath that she will never forget what they did to her ,and what they can do to her.
She gets up taking a last look on her mother's grave.
" Next when i visit you i promise to bring you, your favorite flowers mother "
Aurelia turns to leave as she didn't had anything else to do, but this time something in her had changed.
She goes to the bazaar to the jewelry shop to make a brooch from the blue gem.
" Oh! Lady, your here what can i do for you " Asked the shopkeeper.
Aurelia asked him to make a brooch from the blue gem. He tells her to come back after four days and the brooch will be ready. She thanks the shopkeeper and leaves.
The night has started to fall, she sats down on a bench near the fountain. It was peaceful and quite, but something was lurking ,in the darkness ,waiting for a chance to show itself.
She decided to go back home. It was not that late but the street was too quite there were no people around, she felt that it was strange.
She look around and she could feel someone eyes on her.
" hehehe young lady you shouldn't walk around all alone at night its really dangerous..." Said a man behind her.
Aurelia quickly gets down and picks the sand up from the ground and throws it in the man's eyes.
" AH!!!....you damn woman! You will not get away with this! Get her you all" said the man as he rubs his eyes to get the sand off. Other men also got out of their hiding spots.
She runs straight as fast as she could, but she could still hear their footsteps . She runs into a dead end , she look around to find a place to hide.
When suddenly someone pulls her and puts a hoodie on her covering her face.
" Hey! Let go of me! "
" Stay still and don't shout " said the man as he hold her in his arms, the men who have been following Aurelia reaches the dead end.
Aurelia fell quite not wanting to bring any attention to her. The men looks at them.
" Oh my! lovely couple, you should get a room you two , anyway have you seen a girl running around here "
The man points at a direction, and all the men runs towards the direction he pointed.
