Yarin’s POV:
We didn’t go back to our room tonight. Heller, Lily, and i snuggled and slept well in this magnificent manor.
The next morning, Lily woke us up first. I heard a news van circulating about wanted posters, temporary curfews, and encouraging the public to report suspicious people.
It was still early, and the empty streets were even more desolate because of the explosion. Heller and I stood in front of the car and hugged our parents one by one.
They didn’t want to give up, but they didn’t want to send us away.
“Call us if you miss us. Children, we will always keep in touch with you.” My mom gently kissed our foreheads and personally sent us to the car. “The plane is very fast. You’ll be home at noon. Grandpa will accompany you at the palace. Be obedient, okay? Give him some peace of mind.”
“We know. Goodbye, Mom and Dad. I wish you all the best.”
We obediently said goodbye to our parents. Behind them was the Silver Moon family. 1 saw Lily at a glance. She noticed me and smiled as she mouthed, “Bon voyage.”
I wasn’t in the Silver Moon Pack for long but felt deeply reluctant to leave. This land was rich and filled with enthusiasm, and the unexpected disaster only made it more lovable.
When would I be able to come here again? By then, could i still remember my experiences during this period? Would I still feel such melancholy?
Would I ever meet that brave girl who moved in the wind like a lily again?
The car slowly left the manor and drove along the empty road to the airport.
The magnificent house gradually shrank into a small black dot, disappearing at the horizon’s end.
“Come back to your senses, buddy. We’re not in Titanic.”
Heller rushed over and strangled my neck. We started to fight, which aroused Kara’s dissatisfaction. She cleared her throat, and we immediately separated, obediently sitting in our seats.
“Are you coming back, Grandma Kara?” I asked her. “Aunt Bertha didn’t come to the Silver Moon Pack with you. After you send us home, will you come back, or will Aunt Bertha take your place?”
“Bertha will be responsible for taking care of you, Your Highness. Once you’re settled, I’ll return to the Queen’s side,” Kara replied.
Kara was a very, very experienced servant in the palace. I heard she had already served in the palace when my great-grandfather was still in power. This lady, who had experienced three dynasties, was now in her twilight. The meticulous white hair at her temples indicated the rich experience she had accumulated over the years.
Strictly speaking, she was not working in the palace now but as my mom’s butler. After officially stepping down as the head servant, my mom invited her to work for her. This lady, who had worked hard for half her life, readily agreed and became my mom’s right-hand man.
My mom was busy with government affairs, and raising us herself like a housewife would be too difficult. As for Heller and I, this old man who assisted our mom and raised us was no different than a relative.
I couldn’t bear to leave my parents and Kara. 1 said gloomily, “We’ll miss you, Kara.”
“Can we call you?” Heller said vaguely as he leaned his chin against Kara’s seat.
Kara gently stroked his soft hair, then gently pushed him away and replied, “Of course, but you have to go back to your seat now, Your Highness. Don’t unbuckle your seatbelt. I saw that.”
After being discovered, Heller shrunk back as he mumbled while fastening his seatbelt.
“Are you hungry? 1 see that you haven’t eaten much for breakfast. There’s a fruit platter in the car refrigerator. Eat some to fill your stomach first.” Kara said as she reached out. Just as she was about to open the fridge, something unexpected happened!
“Beep-boom!”
For a moment, the world was spinning!
We were like cats that had been thrown into a washing machine. The feeling of my chest being about to snap made me realize that the seatbelt was holding me firmly to the seat, preventing me from falling apart like a piece of glass.
In a split second, i felt lucky that Heller had fastened his seatbelt. Closely after that, I passed out in the smell of engine oil and blood.
After an unknown amount of time, i felt someone moving me, and a piercing pain came from my chest. i coughed out a mouthful of blood and slowly woke up.
The scene before me was very blurry, and my ears had a sharp buzzing sound. I could only vaguely recognize a dozen plainclothes bodyguards in black calling out to me, but I couldn’t hear a word they said.
After a few seconds, I realized 1 had just been in a car accident and was lucky enough to survive.
“How’s Heller? And Kara, they…”
Halfway through my sentence, i began to cough violently. Blood choked my nasal cavity and windpipe, intensifying my reaction. I couldn’t say a word. I heard the urgent siren of an ambulance.
The medical staff rushed forward and carried me onto the stretcher. Through the gap in the crowd, I saw Heller lying on the other end of the carriage silently with his eyes closed and face full of blood..
