Chapter 02
Everybody goes to the forest with their horses. After some moments, everybody gets separated.
Raféal is behind Renée. Suddenly, Mili starts running really fast.
Raféal starts to ride his horse faster to reach Renée.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Doctor, what's wrong?
●Don't get hurt this time.●
Try to slow down. I'll catch you and take you on my horse.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Everything is under control. I can manage.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Don't argue, you will get hurt. Listen to me.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Slow down, Mili.
Please, slow down or you will get hurt.
Slowly, Mili calms down and stops.
Raféal comes to Renée and puts her down from Mili. The fact that he is worried is written all over his face.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Are you okay? Are you hurt?
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
I'm okay. I'm okay.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
●Thank God, she is safe.●
You go to my horse. I'll take Mili back.
Raféal tries to touch Mili. But she rejects. Watching this Renée laughs.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
I guess your charm didn't work on this female.
Raféal gets serious and comes closer to Renée.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
But my focus was on the other female. What do you think about her? Is she charmed? [Whisper]
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
I think we should go back.
[Feels Shy & Gets Back]
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Let's go.
They both ride back to palace.
They both have dinner and go to their room. They look at each other multiple times but don't talk to each other.
■...In Renée's Bedroom...■
Renée is sleeping and moving and saying 'no', 'no'. She is having a nightmare. She is having a glimpse of fire and an accident.
The fire is increasing more and more. A baby girl crying in front of the fire and screaming 'MOM'.
Suddenly, Renée wakes up.
She is breathing heavily and sweating a lot and tears fall from her eyes.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
What is happening? I was perfectly fine for the last 4 months. What's wrong now?
Renée picks up her parents picture.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
I'm sorry, mom.
I'm really sorry.
She hugs the picture and cries.
After sometime, Renée feels thirsty. She goes downstairs to the kitchen.
When she enters the kitchen, she sees that someone is already there. It's Raféal.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
I am thirsty. Where is water?
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Right shelf of the fridge.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
What are you doing?
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Making my coffee.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Prince Raféal is making his own coffee. Wow, I didn't expect that.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Nobody can make the perfect coffee for me.
Would you like to have it?
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
No, I don't drink coffee.
Well, Mr. Raféal, I want to say something.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Let's go to the garden. We can talk there.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Thank you so much. You helped me in the forest. I'm grateful.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
I didn't help you. You helped yourself. You were actually impressive. How did you control Mili?
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
My mom told me that horses are really intelligent. If you talk to them politely. They will understand. But every horse is not the same. You have to recognise them by their eyes. Because, "Eyes don't lie."
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Looks like you have a PhD. in horse as well.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
[Laugh] Maybe.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
How do you know horse riding and shooting?
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
As I said earlier, I learned horse riding from my mom.
And I learned shooting from army training.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Army training?
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Well, I'm a military doctor. So, I had to take complete military training.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Impressive.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
But, seriously, Mr.Raféal, thanks again.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
You can call me Raféal.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
And you can call me Renée.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
But I find 'doctor' better than Renée.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
But...
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Good night, doctor.
Saying this, Raféal leaves from the garden. Renée just sits there and laughs at Raféal's words.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Maybe he is not as rude as I thought.
He was really worried about me in the forest. I think, he is genuinely good.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
I was really rude in the morning. I forgot to apologise for that.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Leave it. I shouldn't be more involved with him. I should make a safe distance from him.
Renée is having mixed feelings for Raféal. Maybe she can't accept the thing that she finds Raféal good.
■...In Raféal's Bedroom...■
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
What's wrong with me? Why did I do that?
Really, why was I worried about her?
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
If she is hurt or not, why do I care? Am I still affected by that childish feeling?
For God’s sake, it's been 25 years and it's nonsense.
Raféal rests his head on the bed and closes his eyes for a moment.
But all he can see is Renée.
He is really mesmerized by her beauty.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Beautiful.
Unconsciously, the word "beautiful" comes out of his mouth.
Raféal opens his eyes immediately.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Stop yourself, Raféal.
Get a hold on yourself.
Raféal stands in front of the mirror.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
You should always remember that you can only have one feeling for her, that is, hatred.
You can't forget that she is Renée, Renée WILSON. [With a Dark Expression]
Everybody gets ready for a picnic. Everyone decided to go for a picnic, so they could enjoy the holiday more.
Everyone sits in their cars and starts for the trip. Others go in the other car but Renée, Raféal and Bella go in Raféal's Lamborghini Aventador.
Renée and Raféal are sitting in the front because Bella wants to sleep in the backspace.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Where are we going?
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
To the picnic spot.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Thank you for telling me, I didn't know. [Sarcastically]
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
[Smiles] It's called 'The Miracle'. It's an open garden beside forest and lake.
Abella William
We have been going there since our childhood. Trust me, it's very boring.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Well, you won't find it okay even if you are in the moon. Your taste is boring.
Abella William
Mind your business and focus on the road.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Then don't talk.
Abella William
Fine, I am going to sleep.
Bella sleeps but both of them enjoy music for the rest of the ride.
The Williams have their picnic breakfast and they decide to go for hunting in groups. Everyone starts their hunting with their decided partner, Raféal and Renée becomes a group in hunting and walk through the forest.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
What can we find in the forest?
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Bear, deer, boar, if we are lucky we can see a tiger as well.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
what if tigers come to the cottage?
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Are you afraid? [Laugh]
We have border guards, don't worry.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
What do you want to hunt today?
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Doctor.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
I mean, it can't be said.
While walking, they stop in front of a 2 way road.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Let's go to right.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
I know the roads, let's go to left.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
No, I don't wanna go left. I'm going right, if you want, you can go left.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Why are you being so stubborn?
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
I'm going.
Renée leaves Raféal and goes to the right way. But Raféal goes to the left way. After waking for a while Raféal hears a loud roar. It's a tiger roar.
And after a second, a gunshot sound comes to Raféal. Raféal starts panicking and shouting.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
DOCTOR. DOCTOR.
A tiger is pointing on Raféal but he couldn't see it because he is searching for Renée.
The tiger starts running toward Raféal but before Raféal could realise, someone shot the tiger. And it was Renée.
Raféal is so shocked to say anything. Renée runs towards Raféal and checks if he is hurt.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Are you okay? Are you hurt? What happened? Say something.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Why are you so stubborn? Can't you just listen to me?
Raféal starts shouting out of his mixed feelings. He himself is not sure if he is scared, panicked, worried or angry.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Why are you screaming at me, I just saved your life.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
If you had listened to me, this wouldn't happen in the first place.
Renée runs toward the tiger and checks its wound.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Now, what are you doing? Move back.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
I'm not heartless like you. I can't let the tiger die.
Renée takes the bullet with hand and finds some herbs to put on the wound.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
It will be healed soon. The wound is not deep.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
I just don't understand how someone can treat their own prey.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
You don't even have to.
Saying this Renée starts walking away, Raféal starts walking after her.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Doctor. Doctor.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Doctor, I am talking to you.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
I don't want to talk to you, so shut up.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Listen to me, I just...
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Ouch. [In Pain]
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
What happened?
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
I don't know.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
It is what you will get if you act stubborn.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Will you shut up, It's hurting.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Okay, I will. But now stay still.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
What are you doing?
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Can't you see.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
I mean...
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
I mean, what? Can you walk.
Raféal picks Renée and starts walking. But suddenly it starts raining so they take shelter under a tree.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
What we will do now?
Raféal starts to sweating, his breaths are being heavy. Suddenly, his eyes fall on Renée.
Raféal is just... mesmerized.
He forgets everything. Slowly, he is calming down. His breath gets normal.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
●Are you really this beautiful and pure? Or you are just acting up!
But I shouldn't have shouted at her.●
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Thank god.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Renée, I...
Raféal is trying to talk but a jeep comes to pick them up. They go back but they remain silent on the way.
Abella William
Are you guys, okay?
Jackson William
Where have you been?
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Take her inside. She hurt her feet.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
While hunting a tiger.
Roselie William
Oh my god!
Abella William
That was awesome. I should have been with you instead of Raféal.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
I wish.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Enough, guys. Take her inside, she needs rest.
They take some rest and get together for dinner at night.
David William
I heard you hunted a tiger, Renée.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
It was going to attack us. So, I had to.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
She saved my life. She fired to save me.
Thank you, doctor.
Lisa William
How is your feet?
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
It's better.
Lisa William
Have rest, sweetie.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
●What the hell is sweetie.●
[Fuming in Anger]
Everybody sits under the sky and enjoys music.
David William
Don't you guys have any good song?
Roselie William
These songs are latest and trendy, grandpa.
David William
You guys should play some old song from our generation.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Why don't we sing then?
Jackson William
You start, sister Renée.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Let me remember.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
It's an excuse for not...
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Not support
David William
How do you know this song?
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
I listen and sing with my grandparents.
Elizabeth William
You have a good voice.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Thank you, Your Majesty. Now, it's your turn, grandpa.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Now, everyone will try. let's start.
Everyone sings and it's Raféal's turn.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
It's your turn, Mr. Raféal.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
I can't sing.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
We won't judge you.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
I said, I can't.
Saying this, Raféal gets up and leaves from there but others continue singing.
Raféal comes back at the cottage. He sees that everyone is inside, but Renée is sleeping outside on the sheets.
Raféal sits beside her. He looks at her and automatically, his head goes on her face.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Why? I should be the one who hurt you. [Slowly]
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Then why I be the one who becomes anxious when you are hurt. [Slowly]
Suddenly, Renée starts waking up and Raféal sits straight.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Did I sleep here?
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
It seemed like that.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
What are you doing here?
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Enjoying the night view.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
It's quite cold here, I should go inside.
While Renée starts to stand up, her pain starts again.
Raféal holds her and makes her sit. He opens his jacket and puts it on Renée.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Sit down, I will take you when I go inside.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
I can manage.
Raféal holds her hand and pulls her closer.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
You don't have to be stubborn every time I am around you.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
I'm not stubborn. It's just you who...
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
I'm sorry.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
What did you say?
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
You heard me.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
No, I didn't. Really.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
I said, I'M SORRY.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Sorry for what?
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Do I have to describe?
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Well, the way you yelled at me, you should.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
I'm sorry for shouting at you. And I'm really thankful for how bravely saved me from the tiger.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
It's okay. [Smile]
I wonder how the tiger is doing?
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
And I'm wondering how a hunter is worried because his prey is hurt.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
It was not my prey. I shot him because it was about to harm you.
And more over that, the tiger didn't come to my home. I went to his home with a rifle. It was natural for the tiger to attack on us.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
How can you use a gun while having this kind of thought?
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
You need to have balance. You should treat people how they deserve.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Well said. I agree. But does that mean you can have revenge?
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
If you can get back what you lost, but sometimes forgiveness can bring you something better than what you lost.
Renée is talking but Raféal is just looking at her.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Should we go inside?
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
5 more minutes.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
What will we do here if you can't even sing?
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Don't underestimate me, I can sing.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Well, I saw how good you sang.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Not support
Renée is mesmerized by Raféal's voice and starts clapping.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Why didn't you sing earlier?
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
I don't know.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
I thought you were shy because your voice might be pathetic. But you are actually good.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Okay, let's go now.
Raféal picks her in his arms and takes her to her cabin.
■...In Raféal's Cabin...■
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
It was not even love. She was just an infant. Then what is that thing, which is stopping me from hating her.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
The position that she holds in my life, I should, I should hate her. Then why can't I. Why does it bother me if she is in danger?
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
And why the hell did she face a tiger for me? Aaghh, she is confusing as hell. [Sigh]
Raféal is being confused while his phone rings.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
📞 Why did you call me?
Noah Urrea
📞 How could you be so rude to me. The way you left everything I did overtime for 2 days.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
📞 For god’s sake, come to the point. My mood is already ruined.
Noah Urrea
📞 As I have done all my work here, I will be there by tomorrow.
I actually called you to ask, did you meet her? How is she?
Raféal starts having flashbacks of Renée.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
📞 Bellissima. {Beautiful}
Noah Urrea
📞 What did you say?
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
📞 I mean, she is fine.
Noah Urrea
📞 Just fine? Is it quite fine or fine like wine.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
📞 Come and see her yourself. I'm sleepy now.
Saying this Raféal cuts the call. Raféal takes a shower and goes to sleep.
It's raining terribly. Nothing can be seen outside. A woman is walking out of William Palace.
Megan Francis
You have to grow up, Raféal.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Mom. [10 years old]
A little boy is running after the woman crying 'Mom'.
Megan Francis
Don't come after me.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Mom, please don't leave me. [10 years old]
The boy is crying in the rain alone.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Mom, please.
[10 years old]
Suddenly, with a sound of thunder, Raféal wakes up shouting.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
MOM. [Loudly]
Raféal was having a nightmare. It's a frequent event of Raféal's life. Every night he takes sleeping pills but these nightmares haunt Raféal every night and snatch his sleep, especially on rainy days.
Raféal is huffing badly. He searches for water in his room but couldn't find anything. So, he comes out for water and sees Renée is already there.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
You didn't sleep?
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
I came out for water.
You are sweating a lot. Are you okay?
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Yeah, I am okay.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Were you having a nightmare?
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
I said I'm okay. And why are you walking?
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
I checked my leg, it's not a fracture, it's just muscle pull. I had medicines, don't worry.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Why will I worry? Goodnight.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Wait a second.
If you can't fall asleep, then think about something, which makes you happy or calm.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Thanks for your advice but I don't need it, goodnight.
Raféal comes back to his room and lies down on his bed. He starts thinking about what happened today.
What he could remember is about Renée and only Renée.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
I must be out of my mind. Why am I only thinking about her?
Let's think about yesterday.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Is she the only thing that made me happy for the last two days or...
She is the only one in my mind right now.
Suddenly Raféal remembers Renée's smiling face after she sang the song in the garden.
He closes his eyes and slowly recalls Renée's voice and the song she sang.
Gradually, his mind calms down and he drifts to sleep after a long time.
Williams and Renee come back to William palace in the morning. They take some rest.
■...At William Palace...■
■...At The Living Room...■
Jackson William
Last night you sang really beautifully. Give me some tips.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Stop kidding, I am not a professional.
Renée and Raféal are sitting side by side. She leans towards him and says...
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Why don't you give him some tips? Is your singing ability a secret? [Whisper]
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
If you liked it so much, why don't you tell everyone and praise me. [Whisper]
While everyone is talking, a man enters from the main door.
Noah Urrea
Hello, everyone.
Noah notices Renée and walks towards her.
Noah Urrea
Are you Dr.Renée?
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Yeah, but how do you know me?
Noah Urrea
You don't know but you are quite famous.
Nice to meet you. I'm Noah Urrea. I'm the personal assistant of Raféal and his friend.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Nice to meet you, too.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
You can rest now, we will start tomorrow.
Noah Urrea
Goodnight everyone.
