Chapter 5.

In a corner stood the king and queen witnessing what was happening to her.

Queen Halsey : oh my, I can feel her pain deep inside of me.

King Stanley : Looks like we have to make her sober. 'Cause she's still broken by her parents death.

Queen Halsey : But how.

King Stanley : Just let Lucas handle it for now. Let's go back now.

Queen Halsey : Okay.

Lucas : Would you like to pick flowers with me, you know just to cheer you up.

Sabrina : I'd love that.

They both walked around picking up the colorful blossoms and to her it was like a missing part of her life returned. The moment they spent together was worth cherishing.

* In the throne room *

King Stanley : Any news?

Guard : No, your Majesty.

King Stanley : What do mean? I want you to search the whole house and report to me if her and her husband are buried in that house. Don't come back if you haven't found it out.

Guard : Yes, your Majesty.

King Stanley : One more thing, no one must know about this, it has to stay between us.

Guard : Of course.

He woke up and left in a haist while the king looked out the window speaking to himself.

King Stanley : * I wouldn't want my people to suffer from my mistakes. I need to make it right, somehow *

Later that day, at night time. They both burst out laughing at themselves and they got to know one another for the better, till a maid came running into the garden.

Lucas : Whoa! Slow down, what's the matter?

* Breathless *

Maid servant : General, Miss Sabrina. The king requests for your presence in the Dining room.

Lucas : Thank you, you may go now.

Sabrina : Lucas, let's go before I die of starvation.

Lucas : Fine, fine.

He held her by the hand and headed to the Dining room and saw them the table then they quietly sat down beside each other.

Sabrina : * This is a very awkward moment. Especially with the look on their faces, I wonder why they keep staring at us like that*

King Stanley : Tell me, how did your parents die?

Sabrina : Uh... My mother died when she was giving birth to me and my father died from the shock of her death.

Queen Halsey : Poor thing.

King Stanley : Do you miss them?

Sabrina : Yes, I miss them so much.

She stood up and said to the others.

Sabrina : I'm sorry, I have to go.

Lucas : Sa....

He stood up and started following her till the queen called out to him.

Queen Halsey : Lucas?

Lucas : Don't worry, i'll take care of it.

* In her room*

She sat at the corner of her room covering her head into her knees sobbing uncontrollably then knocks was heard coming from behind the door.

Lucas : Sabrina? It's me Lucas could you please open the door?

No answer. He stood there waiting for the door to be opened but it didn't budge.

Lucas : Okay, i'm coming in.

He entered the room and saw her beside her bedside cuddling her face with her knees.

* Speaks softly*

Lucas : Sabrina. I know what they said hurt you. It aches my seeing you so broken.

Sabrina : What can I do? There's nothing much I can do to stop being lie this. I just miss them so much.

Lucas : Hey, hey. I know how hard it is for you and I just want to be there for you.

But the emotions mixed up inside of her and she burst out crying with heavy sobs and tears flowed down cheeks.

Lucas : Don't cry anymore.

He lifted her head and pressed his lips on hers.

Sabrina : Erm... Lucas...

Lucas :...
