Silent & Broken The Little Princess

Just like that, the night passed and the day broke. Luciano moved the quilt, after wearing his slippers he stood up, stretched his back, left a big yawn and went to the bathroom. He was still feeling sleepy, but he just had to get up as his alarm rang. He brushed his teeth, he thought about his dream, which he had last night, about his childhood. He will be lying if he said, that he didn't miss them, he did. He missed those two brothers he met, and their little brother. He misses all his friends which he made in the Orphanage. He still remembered their names. Especially his, Donomie. He wondered why his name was that. It was unique, beautiful but a little weird too. But later he got to know, it means Lord.

What a beautiful, and strong meaning. His parents must have given a lot of thoughts in choosing his name. He spits out the paste, into the basin. Feeling all cool and minty in his mouth. He gurgled and threw the water in the basin, repeated that and then he washed his whole face. He came out of the bathroom, he folded the quilt and placed it neatly at the edge of the bed, he neatly placed all the pillows in its original places and straightened the bedsheet. He left a breath. He moved the curtains, letting the morning sun in. He closed his eyes and smiled as he felt warm on his face. It was as if, his mother was holding him, giving all her love, making him feel warm.

Even if it has been so many years, he still misses them so much. Every time he does, he can only cry, and do nothing but stare at the stars in the night sky.

Luciano Solace (MC)

*If only you all were still here.*

Donomie just woke up, when the maid knocked on the door. He annoyingly clicked his tongue, when he felt a scorching headache. He held his head, slapped on hoping the ache would go away. He walked inside the bathroom, wearing nothing but his pajamas, he was top naked. As the bathroom door clicked shut, a maid quickly came in, made his bed, opened the curtains and took all his dirty laundry with her. Well, he is a young master.

He washed his face in the basin multiple times with cold water. But still the headache didn't go away. He groaned in pain and closed his eyes. He held his head with his palms and mumbled to himself,

Donomie Luther (ML)

Fuck, I shouldn't have drank so much.

He finally brushed his teeth. He wore a shirt to hide his naked body, and then he went downstairs. When he walked inside the dining room, he saw everyone was already there.

Amara Luther

Good morning, uncle Mic.

The cheerful voice of his little niece made him forget the headache for a moment, he smiled and said,

Donomie Luther (ML)

Good morning, Princess.

Amara giggled as she ran to her mother, and sat on her lap. While Donomie also took his seat.

Damen Luther (ML's father)

It seems my bratty son is getting a headache after drinking so much.

Donomie sighed.

Donomie Luther (ML)

Good morning, father.

Damen just rolled his eyes and scoffed as he went back to reading his newspaper. While Donomie kept his head low, and closed his eyes. Maybe, he did act childishly last night. Of course his parents won't force him to get married. Stupid him.

Saija Luther (ML's sister-in-law)

Seth told me, you finished a whole bottle.

Donomie mumbled,

Donomie Luther (ML)

I guess I did.

While Saija laughed. She took a spoon full of rice and vegetables and fed it to Amara who was sitting on her lap, while swinging her legs.

Amara Luther

Is uncle sick?

Saija wiped Amara's mouth with a tissue as there were rice grains stuck on her cheek and lips.

Saija Luther (ML's sister-in-law)

You shouldn't talk while eating, baby.

Amara pouted her lips.

Amara Luther

Okay, mommy.

Saija smiled and pecked Amara's cheeks. In a sweet voice, she said,

Saija Luther (ML's sister-in-law)

My sweet baby.

The double door was again opened, this time, by Seth. He was wearing a simple shirt with gray pants. He took his seat beside his wife, Saija. He kissed on her lips and wished her morning and then kissed his daughter's cheeks and wished her a good morning too. Such a sweet father. Amara turned her head away, and pouted her lips. She puffed her cheeks and crossed her arms around her chest. Seth chuckled. He looked at Saija who was smiling and said,

Seth Luther (ML's brother)

Why is my baby looking angry?

Saija chuckled.

Saija Luther (ML's sister-in-law)

Because you came home late last night.

Damen placed the newspaper on the table, and looked at his family with a smile. Seth picked his daughter up, and made her sit on his lap. He kissed her cheek and said,

Seth Luther (ML's brother)

Blame your uncle, Mic. He is the reason why I came home late.

Donomie immediately sat straight on the chair and looked at Amara. Amara whined and said,

Amara Luther

Uncle, you shouldn’t do that! Do you know I waited, for this-

He pointed at Seth.

Amara Luther

man for so long, I sacrificed my beauty sleep!

Donomie pinched his ears and bowed his head.

Donomie Luther (ML)

I am sorry you had to wait for that man, for me my sweet darling.

Amara giggled. Hearing her giggles, Donomie placed his hands on his lap and smiled as he looked at her. She is the happy-pill of this family.

Amara Luther

It's okay.

While Seth sighed. He tickled Amara and said,

Seth Luther (ML's brother)

This man, huh! Who am I? Hmm.

While Amara just laughed and wiggled on her father's lap.

Amara Luther

Daddy, stop! I am too ticklish!

Seth laughed softly and stopped punishing his daughter with tickles.

Seth Luther (ML's brother)

Fine.

Damen Luther (ML's father)

*My lovely family.*

Damen was looking at them all this time, silently with a smile adorning his lips. This is what he always dreamt of. A happy family.

Just then, a lady wearing a white cream top, with a matching shirt walked in, with maids following her inside.

Narcissa Luther (ML's mother)

Now-now, time to have breakfast!

Everyone quiets down, as the food is served. The lady of the house took her seat beside her husband, Damen and everyone ate in silence.
