Fake Princess
DCIII Chapter
“They're really going,” I said slowly by looking at the door that had closed again.
“Sachi!”
I turned towards Zeki who suddenly made a sound, “actually what happened to you? Hearing Haruki's words, makes me feel stupid,” continued by lowering my gaze.
“Although I know, I will not be confused like this,” I replied, I slightly retreated by leaning my back on the head of the bed.
“Zeki, sorry .. If I haven't been a good wife to you-”
“What do you mean? I myself, in a hurry to tie you up. I also want to apologize, for not being a good husband to you. But, as long as you know .. I always try to learn all this time, slowly by slowly,” he said that moves his body up from the bed.
“Where do you want to go?”
He stopped his steps by turning to look at me, “I want to clean my body. You, don't like the smell of my body, do you?”
“Zeki, it looks like I'm pregnant,” I said slowly with my head down.
“What do you mean?”
“I'm not too sure, because I myself was often late to arrive months before, and after we did, I always drank every potion given by the Physician Palace, after I think back-”
“After me, remembering all the symptoms I experienced .. It looks like I am pregnant,” I continued in a slower voice.
“You sure? You're not trying to play me, are you?”
I raised my hand, trying to stop him who was about to get close with a face sumringah, “don't get too close to me. I, really can't smell your body,” I said, throwing a sideways glance.
“I understand. What if we check it out? What if we make sure? Does this palace have a Physician? Wait, you don't get out of there! I'll find you a healer. You heard what I said, didn't you? Don't get out of your bed!” He said it with a sigh, before finally running out of the room.
If what I think is true. Should I be happy or sad? I, have done all that my brother commanded. Shouldn't be, this isn't happening, is it?
I took a strong bite of the lips followed by a raised hand rubbing slowly my stomach, “I don't want you now. I, I still have to gather allies. Why-”
“Sa-chan,” my head was raised again when Haruki's voice followed by a squeak from the door sounded in the ears.
“You've noticed it?”
“Nii-chan,” my tears involuntarily came out upon seeing her, “what should I do? I don't want to have a child this fast. Me, I still have a promise to Father to gather a lot of allies for him,” my tears as he stepped up and sat down near me.
“Help me to get rid of nii-chan. I, still want to come with you on an adventure. Nii-chan please! Please, get rid of this one in my stomach before Zeki returns.”
“I can't do it. In that belly of yours, my nephew also ... Did you forget?”
“But-”
“Do you remember? The baby girl you brought back to Il. What did you feel back then to the point that you insisted on saving her?”
My cry broke even more, when the memory of that time returned, “listen to this brother of yours, Sa-chan,” she said, she raised my face followed by her fingers moving hand rubbing my eyes.
“Do you know? At that moment, I cursed myself. I was angry because I couldn't save my own son. I was angry because I couldn't give him a chance to see the world. Tell Sa-chan, can you guess? Can you guess your son will become a beautiful Princess or a handsome Prince?”
Haruki smiled back by rubbing my eyes as I shook my head slowly returning his gaze, “if you just can't guess it, then you have no right to take his life. Did you forget? Every human being, has his own destiny, we do not know .. What destiny will your son bring later.”
“And also, he won't be forever in your stomach, will he? We can postpone the journey, because without you .. Perhaps, we will not meet with these amazing creatures again without you. And I won't like it-”
“Are you not angry, nii-chan?”
“I think, he'll be a strong boy. Because he is very tough in the stomach of his mother who can not stay still,” Haruki chuckles with his hand moving rubbed my stomach, “Uncle is waiting for your presence, be a good sister for your brother later, be a good sister for your sister,” Haruki continued, she smiled again as she moved her hand rubbing my head.
“You will destroy the happiness of a future father, if he sees you like this. Quickly remove your tears, before he comes,” Haruki said by moving and walking away from me.
I did what he asked, my body leaning more and more on the bed still looking at him standing beside the door. “You need not worry, I ordered Izumi to pull away Vartan so as not to have a chance to approach you.”
“I don't care about him-”
“I know, but it would be a little troublesome if Zeki was jealous of her. His wife seduced other men, not knowing what she would do. I'm really curious, do I have to tell her?”
“Nii-chan!”
“I know. He came, pretending to be weak in front of him. You, you want to make sure he's real about being a father, don't you? After you confirm it, then I will do as you ordered earlier.”
My body was stunned as Haruki smiled towards me, “my wife is lying there. Tell me, is he-” right
“Zeki!” tukas Haruki stopped his words.
The old man who was beside her, walked over to me. I glanced at Zeki who was looking at me anxiously. “What are you, not eating well lately?” I nodded my head, answering the man's question as he let go of the grip of his hand on my arm.
“The pulse on her wrist feels weak, great luck she did not lose her baby. Make sure well what he eats, I will write down a potion that you can buy later for him,” said the middle-aged man who became the Physician, he moved by stepping his feet near the door.
“I'll take you back, Great Physician,” Haruki said, waving his hand before smiling by closing the door again.
“Zeki?” my mouth turned its gaze towards him, as the sound of sobbing sounded softly from the direction it stood.
“I'm sorry, I .. Can't control myself,” he said, he threw away his gaze with the occasional flick of his hands wiping his eyes.
“I feel like a dream, so I hope I don't have to wake up again. Several times I repeated life, this time life .. It felt so perfect for me. So perfect, that I felt so scared to lose everything.”
“Actually what are you talking about this, Zeki!” by slapping his own cheek using both hands.
I bit my lips firmly followed by my hand that moved tightly grasping the pillow beside me. I took a breath by lifting back the gaze staring at him, “I'm hungry. I want to eat grilled fish and drink coconut water. So Dad, remove your tears, and give me the food I want to grow big fast.”
Zeki took a breath before his footsteps moved closer, “is that all you want?” tanyanya while kneeling beside the bed by grabbing and then tightly grasping my hand.
“Are you sure you want to grant all my wishes?”
Zeki nodded her head back at my gaze, “if it is like that, stay away a little from me! I told you, didn't I? Your body smell is poking my nose. For some reason, every time I see your face, I'm always upset. I'm so upset with myself .. I hate you, but I don't want you to stay away.”
“So like this that Kabhir said first. A husband will be tested for his patience when his wife is pregnant. All right, ten grilled fish and a barrel of coconut water, right?” the one who stood back up.
“Where do you want to go?”
“I want to prepare everything you want.”
“You want to buy all that?”
“Sure, what do you think I would do at night like this.”
“Do you have money to buy it?”
Zeki stopped his steps without answering my question, “you went here with no money at all, right?
“Already expected,” connect me by back lying down, “no need to force yourself. Eating the air in the room, is more than enough for me to feel full,” I said slowly while lying sideways with slowly closing my eyes.
