My Husband is a King
Photo from the Queen Mother's Room
"But I feel like it's not me" replied Eliana.
"If not who are you then?" The King still believes it was Eliana.
"Maybe ... mother .." he answered after a long time looking at the portrait.
"You mean?" King Gerald is closing in on Eliana.
"My mom, because she used to be .. My mom used to wear dresses with a lot of accents like in the photo" Eliana replied, pointing to the accents in the dress the girl in the photo wore.
It was a typical royal Noirland dress, always designed with striking details and eye-catching colors.
The ladies-in-waiting were watching King Gerald and Eliana talking about their daughter.
The ladies wanted to interrupt to tell them what they knew about the girl in the photo, but they were disinclined.
In the end they were just whispering and it disturbed King Gerald.
"Darling, do you know anything?" King Gerald glanced at the two maids who were whispering while standing by the door.
The two ladies looked at each other, they seemed to hesitate to open their mouths or not.
"Je .. re .. my ...." The delirious voice cut through their seriousness in discussing the girl in the photo.
Everyone looked back at the Queen mother.
"Your Majesty, are you conscious?" The lady-in-waiting approached the queen mother, who looked about to open her eyes.
"Don't wake up yet, Your Majesty," said another lady-in-waiting to keep the queen from waking up first.
"Why is the doctor so long?" lament King Gerald.
The ladies shook their heads because they didn't know.
"Drink first, Your Majesty," Eliana bargained with the queen mother.
Eliana received the glass back after the queen mother after sipping it and then stored it on the nightstand.
Tok tok tok tok
"Maybe it's the doctor, let me open it" said Eliana who rushed towards the door.
"Good morning, doctor," said Eliana to the man in the white cellar who entered the room.
"Good morning," replied the doctor who immediately went closer to the queen mother's bed.
But his steps stopped because seeing King Gerald, the doctor paid his respects.
"Hamba really did not expect to see His Majesty the King of Raisilian now" the doctor said. "Hamba salutes His Majesty the King." The doctor looks like he is bending his body.
"Honorably received. Thank you for coming to fulfill the call. Can you immediately check on His Majesty the queen mother, she has just regained consciousness" King Gerald said.
The doctor nodded and immediately took out his equipment. "Okay, Your Majesty."
It was seen that the doctor used his stethoscope, then occasionally tapped on the mother's stomach.
Before long, the doctor seemed to find the cause of the mother's stings.
"It seems, the queen mother went into shock, Your Majesty. He also seems to be suffering from depression due to the departure of His Majesty King Jeremy. It causes the mother's appetite to decrease, and has an impact on her endurance. As now, his endurance was weakened, in the end he was unconscious" the doctor replied, explaining to everyone there.
"Then, will the queen mother be given medicine?" ask King Gerald.
"Of course!" The doctor nodded with a reassuring sangay.
"But .. the remedy is not the tablet as it usually is."
The ladies are watching carefully.
"What's the cure then?" ask King Gerald impatiently.
