Chapter 05
■...At William Palace...■
They sit and have some snacks.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Thanks for the food.
Even though you don't like me. You still cared about me. I'm really grateful.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
I'm really grateful.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
I... I didn't mean that.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
That I hate you.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Don't you?
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
No, I don't.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Really! Why are you being so generous?
You can hate me, I don't mind.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Bella might have told you that why I hate my birthday. So, that day, I seriously was furious and I was really mean to you.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Trust me, I didn't know about that before. Why would I hurt, tell me?
If I knew, I would have never done that.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
You also lost your mom but I was so rude about her as well.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
She never told me that she was a princess. All she said was that her family lives very far away. So, we can't meet them.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
I was so young, so I believed her. My family also hid it from me, I don't know why.
But look at me, in the whole world I got stuck in this palace.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Do you hate us?
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
I would have if I wouldn't meet you.
But the way you guys hate my mom, I don't love you guys as well.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Fair enough. [Smile]
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
But yes, except Rose, Jake and sister Bella.
You know I've only an elder brother. So, they fulfilled the place of siblings and elder sister in my life.
Raféal, was Mili my mom's horse?
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Yes, I heard when your mom left. Mili became so aggressive that nobody could handle her.
But when you came, she became polite for the 1st time, maybe she recognised you.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
I want to ask you something.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
What?
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Why do you hate my mom?
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
She hurt my family's feelings, especially my grandparents. She harmed the image of Ivanná.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
She was my grandparents' only daughter. When she left, grandpa started having health issues.
I don't like her, that's true. But I don't hate her.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
But I don't think that she did something wrong.
Your grandparents rejected my father because he was an ordinary citizen from Spain.
Separating 2 people who love each other only on the basis of this is ridiculous as well.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Well, everything has their own opinion.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Fair enough. [Smile]
Raféal laughs and they stay there until midnight watching the stars.
■...In Renée's Bedroom...■
Renée is alone in her room. She is talking to her mom while lying on the bed.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Happy birthday, mom.
But this time, I'm at your childhood home. But see, nobody cares here.
Suddenly, someone knocks on the door. Renée hides the picture. David has come to see Renée.
David William
How are you, sweetie?
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Much better, grandpa.
David William
It must be really painful, right?
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Now, the pain is almost gone.
David William
Well, I have something for you.
David puts out a necklace from his pocket and puts it on Renée.
David William
It's a gift for you.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
A gift for saving grandma?
David William
No, sweetheart. Today is my daughter's birthday.
She is not here with me. So, I gave you her gift.
David William
Because when I see you, I remember her.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Today is my mom's birthday as well.
Grandpa. [With teary eyes]
David can't act anymore. He starts crying and hugs Renée.
David William
I'm sorry, baby. Grandpa couldn't do anything.
Look at me, how unfortunate father I am that I couldn't even know that my daughter is not in this world anymore.
Forgive me, Renée. Forgive your grandpa, please.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Don't cry, grandpa. It's mom's birthday. You should be happy today.
David William
You are right.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
So, it's a reunion day.
Raféal has been standing in the door frame and hearing their conversation but nobody noticed him.
David William
Raféal, we are just...
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
I know, Grandpa. You don't have to lie.
And don't worry, I'll take care of your granddaughter.
David William
Thank you, Raféal.
David leaves from the room.
Raféal takes out the picture from under the pillow.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Happy birthday to you, aunt Kate.
They both look at each other and smile.
■...In Raféal's Bedroom...■
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
📞 Hello.
Noah Urrea
📞 I saw the CCTV. It was just an accident. The chandelier was old. So, it fell off.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
📞 Okay. Thanks.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
This stubborn girl. Why did she endanger herself.?
Was I ever right about you? You don't seem like anything as I thought about you.
Raféal's thoughts about Renée are changing but Raféal himself can't understand why.
As time passes Renée and Raféal get comfortable with each other.
Raféal checks on Renée every night and morning. They spend their most time with each other, when they are in the palace.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Raféal, I want to see Mili, can you...
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Well, now I've officially become your vehicle, so why ask.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
[Laugh]
They go to the garden and sit there. Renée sits there and Raféal takes out Mili and goes to Renée.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Hey, cutie. How are you?
Mom missed you so much. I'm glad I met you.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Wanna ride?
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
How can I?
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Let me show you.
Raféal picks Renée and puts her on Mili. Then he takes her in the forest.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Comfortable?
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Yes. [Blush]
Thanks for bringing me here.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Who taught you horse riding?
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
From my mom.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
You are good. I thought you would be hurt that day.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
It's feels good to hear compliments from Prince Raféal.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Tell me something, why are you so stubborn?
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
What do you mean?
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
You never listen to me. If I say right, you say left.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
So what, it was me who saved you.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Well, then you are a furiously stubborn girl.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Don't call me that. [Angry]
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Ok, ok. Calm down. I won't.
They take a round of the forest and go back.
Today Renée is able to walk. Doctor is checking her. Raféal is there standing in a corner and looking at them.
Doctor of MGH
Now you can walk. So, don't push much pressure.
Just 1 week of nutrition supplements, then you will be good to run around.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Thank you, doctor.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Congratulations, doctor.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Congratulations.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Why me?
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
You don't have to pick me up here and there anymore.
And I can leave soon. Just endure me for 1 week.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Are you still upset with me about what happened on my birthday?
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
I'm not upset. But you were right. When everybody will know my truth, they will hate me.
And I don't want that. So, I better leave soon.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
You can...
Abella William
Congratulations, I heard you can walk now.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Thank you.
They go inside the palace.
■...In The Dining Room...■
Everyone is having dinner with Renée after a long time. Suddenly, butler comes to the dining area.
Jonathan (Butler)
Your Majesty, Mili is severely sick. She might... she might die any time.
Renée stands up and without saying anything, she runs outside.
David William
Renée.
Raféal, go after her.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Ok, Grandpa.
Raféal goes behind Renée.
Raféal runs after her and hugs her from behind.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Renée.
Please calm down. You are not fully recovered.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Leave me, I wanna go.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Okay, we will. But walk, don't run.
Renée immediately hugs Mili.
A vat comes and checks Mili. The vat says she is really old now. She is very weak. She might not make it long.
Hearing this, Renée starts crying.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Please don't leave. Please don't leave me. You can't leave me like mom. I don't want to be alone.
Mili, please. [Crying]
Mili is really weak and Renée hugs her. Mili breathes her last breath in Renée's arm.
Raféal holds Renée and consoles her.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Renée, be strong. Don't cry.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Wake her up. Tell her to look at me.
Raféal, call her. Please.
Renée cries and Raféal hugs her for the whole time to comforts her.
■...In Renée's Bedroom...■
Raféal takes Renée to her room and lies her on the bed.
As Raféal is about to leave, Renée holds Raféal's hand in sleep.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Mom, please. Mom, don't leave. Mom.
Don't leave me, please.
Raféal holds her hand and sits beside her.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
I'm here. I'm not going anywhere.
You just sleep.
He sits beside her until she completely falls asleep.
Renée wakes up and sees Raféal is sleeping beside her. When she sits up, Raféal wakes up.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
What are you doing here?
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
You were having nightmares last night, so I didn't understand what to do. And I don't realise when I slept.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Where is Mili?
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
She is buried in the forest.
She was 40. She was rare. She had a very smooth life.
You have to accept it. So, be strong.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
You are right.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Now, freshen up and come for breakfast.
Renée is sitting on a bench. David comes and sits beside her.
David William
Mili was Kate's childhood friend. It was the first horse that I gifted her on her birthday.
She always liked to spend time with Mili, she used to talk to her.
David William
When Kate left, Mili didn't let anyone touch her. When you tried, she became gentle with you.
She loved you. So, don't be sad.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Grandpa, do you also hate my mom like others?
Since, the day I have come here nobody, absolutely nobody even mentioned her name.
You guys didn't even try to meet her once.
David William
That's not true. How can I hate her? She was my only daughter, my baby girl.
It's just that when she left us, it hurt my fatherhood. I felt betrayed.
David William
But when she came back with Edward, I just couldn't be mad with her.
I even went to see you in the hospital, after that I just contacted with her by phone calls.
David William
But your grandma is still angry, she is a mother, after all. And everyone is just scared of your grandma. It's not like we hate her.
I hope you will be better, sweetie. Let's go inside.
Everyone noticed that Renée is upset after Mili's death. So, to cheer her up they take her to the terrace.
Raféal, Renée, Rose, Jake, Bella and Noah everyone is there.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
I'm thinking that I will leave for Spain tomorrow.
Abella William
What happened?
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Now, that I am fully recovered, I think I should go.
Jackson William
But didn't you come here to treat grandpa?
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
He is better now. And I think you should hire someone better for him.
Abella William
You are the best, so why should we find someone else?
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
I guess it will be best for everyone.
Noah Urrea
So, when are you leaving?
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Tomorrow.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
You can't leave.
Everyone looks at Raféal.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
I mean, you can postpone it, right?
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Why should I?
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
I'm planning a trip for us to Venice. So, you can leave after the trip.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Suddenly?
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
It's not sudden. Noah has planned everyone.
Noah is confused but when he sees Raféal is giving him a death stare, he understands.
Noah Urrea
Oh yeah, it's done. We can go tomorrow.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
You guys carry on, I'll go back home.
Abella William
I know that we failed to feel you like home but take it as our last trip. Maybe we can never have this chance again.
Roselie William
Yes, sister Renée, please.
Jackson William
Please let's go.
Renée feels emotional and looks at Raféal.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Ok. For the last time.
■...In Raféal's Bedroom...■
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
What?
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
You don't have to worry. Just prepare rooms in my villa. They will stay there.
Noah Urrea
Is it all to stop Renée?
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Why would I do that?
Noah Urrea
Then why this sudden plan?
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Just do what I said.
Noah Urrea
I know it's for her, you can't even deny it.
Saying this, Noah goes out of the room.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
When I was the one who wanted her to leave this palace, then why did I stop her?
These days, I just can't control my thoughts.
But it's the last time, after this I will not stop her.
Raféal, Renée, Rose, Jake, Bella and Noah leave for Venice in Raféal's private jet.
They take some rest in Féal.Villa. In the afternoon, they all go to the beach.
They enjoy their time by playing around and enjoying the sunset.
After playing, everyone takes rest. But Raféal and Renée are still sitting on the shore.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
It's beautiful, right?
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Yeah.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
What do you like most? Mountain or beach?
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Mountain.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
But I like beach more.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Why?
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Because it is peaceful and dangerous both at the same time.
When you close your eyes, you can feel the peace. But when you go too close, it can take your life as well.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
You are right.
"Everything is beautiful from a certain distance."
Like you.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Pardon.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Leave it. You won't understand.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
You are so annoying. You always play with words.
Saying this Renée throws water on Raféal and they start water fight.
After so many years, Raféal smiles so brightly. Everyone is looking at them and being happy.
Everyone comes back and eats dinner in the evening and watches a movie. After that, they go to take rest as they are very tired.
Everyone is sleeping. Raféal comes downstairs and sees Renée is sitting alone in the yard.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
What are you doing here?
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Can't sleep.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Why?
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
New place, maybe.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
I am really sorry for whatever I said or did to you that hurt you.
Please forgive me.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
If you really like to apologize, you have to cook a dish for me and sing a song as an apology.
Are you okay with that?
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Are you serious?
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
If you can't, then...
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Okay, I will.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
I didn't think you would agree so fast.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
What would you like to eat?
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Pizza.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Let's go.
Raféal and Renée start preparation for pizza. Renée starts cutting the vegetables. She tries to do it but she can't. Raféal takes the knife from her hands and starts cutting.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Let me show you how to do it.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
You look professional.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
And it looks like you never even entered in the kitchen.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
My grandma never let me.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Then let me teach you.
Raféal takes Renée near the stove.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Let me show you something interesting.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
I don't think it's a good idea.
Raféal puts something on the pen and the fire starts to blow.
Renée starts stepping back.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
No, no. Please.
Aaaaa. [Screaming]
Renée starts panicking and Raféal holds her hands.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
What happened?
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Please distinguish the fire.
Raféal turns off the stove and hugs Renée.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
It's okay, I turned it off.
Calm down, I'm here.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
[Crying]
Renée calms down and becomes normal.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
You go outside, I will bring your food outside.
Renée goes to the poolside and prepares the plates and drinks.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
I told you to take rest. Why did you do all that?
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
You cooked for me. So, I can at least do this for you. Thank you.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Just soft drink?
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
I don't drink alcohol. But I brought wine for you.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
I will also have soft drink today. Let's start.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
You know what, this pizza is awesome.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
[Smile]
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
How did you learn cooking?
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
I was fed up with the maid and chef's cooking, I wanted to try something new. So, I learned.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Raféal, I'm sorry for what happened earlier in the kitchen.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
It's okay. If you don't mind, can you tell me what happened?
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
I have pyrophobia, fear of fire. When I see fire blowing, I get panic attacks.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Surprisingly, I'm the total opposite of you.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
I have ombrophobia.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Fear of rain?
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Yes.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
We both are actually different.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Yeah, you are different.
I always had trust issues with women after my mo... I mean, my father's 1st wife left.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
I can't trust any woman except grandma. So, when I met you, I thought you came to claim your mother's belongings and hurt my family.
But slowly, when I get to know about you. I understood that the bad guy was me. I hurt you and insulted your mother.
I want to say sorry again.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
So you are saying you trust me?
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Yes.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
You hate me?
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
No. [Smiles]
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Do you hate my mom?
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Absolutely not.
Will you forgive me now?
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
I said food and song.
You have done food but the song is still not done.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Were you serious?
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
100 percent.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Which song?
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
As you wish.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Not support
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Once more, once more.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
That's enough.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Did you learn singing?
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
No, I used to sing with my friends in my college days. I enjoy singing.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Then why did you not sing on the picnic day in front of everyone?
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Maybe I was uncomfortable.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Then why did you sing in front of me?
Raféal looks at Renée for a moment.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
I don't know.
You sing well, too.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
Well, I'm just a person who can sing in any gathering for fun. I also just enjoy singing.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Now, I have done food and song. What else?
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
I forgive you, Prince Raféal.
And I also want to thank you. You helped me a lot when I was injured.
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Oh yeah, I became your personal vehicle.
Renée Wilson ● [𝗙𝗟]
So, can we become friends, Prince Raféal?
Raféal William ● [𝗠𝗟]
Friends.
