Chapter 4 - CHAPTER FOUR

"I'm not boring you...."

But prince Jordan threw a snow ball and it hit her on the face.

       "Ow nice shot!!!" The other four said as prince Jordan laughed, this evoked the angry emotion inside princess Lynette.

"I will...."

But princess Kimberly threw a snow ball and it hit her face making everyone to laugh.

  "She's our foe....!!, attack her with your snow balls!!!" Prince Jordan said and the four started throwing their balls at the elegant princesses, while Jordan only laughed.

       The Queen was standing at the half opened window in her chambers laughing her jaws out.

"They got her really bad", she exclaimed.

         After playing they all came back into the castle laughing except for princess Lynette whose body was covered in snow.

"Snow Queen", they all except for prince Jordan called her before running upstairs. Princess Lynette used her finger to prickle his skin.

"Awuch sis that hurts."

"What will sting more is you failing, Jordan do you think you're still a child?, you are 23( twenty-three ) years old, and you will soon ascend the throne but you're acting like this!!, if you can't or won't ascend the throne I will!!"

Prince Jordan ruffled his hair before saying,

"And you are 26 and still not married!"

Her face became pale, looking at her face he felt bad for what he said but she was the one that pushed him to the wall.

"I thought we are stating the obvious."

He said leaving. Princess Lynette stood like a sculpture as tears threatened to fall from her eyes but she held it back before walking to her chamber.

     Prince Jordan entered his chamber with a woebegone expression on his face and met a young man probably his age decently dressed in a suit and standing at a corner

   

    "You startled me."

"Am sorry your highness that wasn't my intention", he politely bowed.

          "And you are?"

"Am Job ur person servant."

"I don't need a personal servant, get out."

     Job bowed before leaving. Prince Jordan always has mood swing whenever he fought with his sister.

"I pray she doesn't become a conundrum to me this festive season."

He soliloquiesd,then he remembered

"The 30(thirty) dresses", and he swiftly stood up and left the room but he unfortunately met his father, the King, and Mr Knight, his father dismissed Mr Knight and looked at him.

     " Walk with me son."

And they both walked down to were the pictures and sculptures of the previous kings were hung.

  "Prince Jordan."

                   "Yes father"

"You know this is the pictures of all the previous kings of our linage and the sculpture placed Infront of each pictures signifies something, take a look at the sculpture of the elephant placed Infront of late king Abraham's picture, it signifies strength, he went to war with 3(three) nations and came back victorious with the heads of the leader of each nation, people called him a living God, but why am I telling you this son?, it's because what you do here, how you present yourself, how you rule our people is how you will be remembered, do not be a weak or soft king because your father is neither. "

"Yes father I understand", said the prince as they both walked into the dinning room, everyone except for the Knight's family were present, the king and prince sat to have breakfast. Prince Jordan ate like someone who haven't eaten for months.

"Prince's don't eat like werewolves." Making everyone to chuckle.

  "Son didn't you eat dinner yesterday?" The queen inquired but princess Kimberly spoke.

"He didn't eat well mother, he ran off." making everyone to laugh again.

About 20(twenty) minutes in the dinning room the King spoke,

"Like always the Christmas ball will commerce but this time in the honor of prince Jordan, I accolade princess Lynettes works doing all the Christmas balls the past years and I will like her to organize it again."

      Princess Lynette beamed.

"Thank you father I won't let you down."

"And again prince Jordan will be expected to introduce a lady as the future Queen on that day."

The king dropped the bombshell as everyone became quite while the Prince gently dropped his cutleries on the table.

"I concur with what you just said". Agreed the grandparents.

"Father you can't be serious", exclaimed prince Jordan standing up with a woebegone expression on his face.

"What's the big deal?, a lot of beautiful princesses will come for the ball ,you just have to choose or you can have some come here a week before the ball to get to know them or you can choose Morgan, or I can choose for you", Lynette bluntly said making her to earn an angry steer from the ballistic prince.

"Why do you like saying despicable things?, you're such a hubric princess, can't you just shut your mouth for just few minutes, and do not ever interfere in my conversation with Father again with those titchy lips of yours cause if in the future you do... I will show you what I do to a wuss", and with that he left.

"Prince Jordan don't go."

        But he was already out of sight.

Princess Lynette smiled before saying,

"please do excuse me,I have a terrible pain in my gut." And she stood before leaving.
