THE WASTED QUEEN
Chapter 78 - You'll Be All Right

A cloudy morning in Tibelia, in a modest house, a woman seemed happy about the birth of her two twin sons, though the faces of the two were very similar to Aaron's, there was no reason for Freya to hate her own child.

The older brother, Lidra, was also happy about the birth of his nephew, but when he saw Freya who was swinging his two sons, made Lidra's face turned pity.

He could not close his eyes, how the villagers ridiculed the younger sister as a bad woman.

‘Women who just returned after knowing pregnant from men not clear’

‘Women don't know themselves.'

‘Women are shameless.'

'He only humiliated Tibelia.'

'After 10 years she's just come back here, it's clear she's a bad woman.'

At first Lidra also thought the same as the villagers, but after hearing Freya's explanation he felt guilty, Lidra initially also did not believe if the sister of a queen in the neighboring kingdom. But Violet and her explanation became real evidence.

“You okay with all this Freya?”

Freya nodded, “Lantas wants what else, at least I have you, Lidra.”

“Freya I did not expect if your life is like that in Axios.”

“I only hear the words of father and mother if you become a servant there, because in your letter it also says so.”

“Yes, even though we know, we who are small people can not do anything for you.”

Freya smiled, “Color I don't want dad and mom to worry about me. But it turns out it ended up like this.”

“I'm sorry, never there for them in the last seconds. But I'm grateful big brother is there to take care of them.”

“Actually I also did not fully become a good child, I just returned after being aware of being fooled by that crazy man.”

“That too they still want to receive me, from the actual gift of the dowry, we used it to open a bakery, and as you can see now, became the most successful store in Tibelia.”

“Freya what will you do next with your children? Are you going to raise her in Tibelia?”

“Yes, I raised them here brother, it doesn't matter the villagers jeered me, anyway the next few years they will forget.”

Lidra looked towards Freya's two sons. “May you both grow up to be good children, and unlike your father.”

“Freya, have you set a name for them?”

“Not yet, I'm still thinking of a good name for both of them.”

Before long Violet came while carrying a tray of tea for her sister and brother.

“Thanks Violet.”

“Sama-sama Miss Lidra.”

“Why call me Miss? Just call Lidra I'm not a nobleman.”

“Violet, do you still want to come with me? I have nothing left now, even for the next few months can't pay you anymore.”

“No problem Your Majesty, I will continue to be with you, even if you do not pay me even once.”

“Then what about your sisters?”

“No need to worry they live well in Axios, they also know if I am in Tibelia.”

“Ya, I want.”

“Then, happy working at the Hilis bakery. From now on call me Lidra and her Freya, got it?”

Violet nodded back.

“Freya you do not have to think about the cost problem, we can both work on the bread of father and mother.”

“Thank you brother.”

...****************...

In Lezarde, at the Duke Kedrick Mansion. Leonardo was visiting his father-in-law, who was ill.

“I've told you many times not to have to come and trouble yourself.”

While coughing Kedrick tried to sit down and Leonardo helped him.

“Be careful dad.”

“I'm fine, don't trouble yourself to always come see me.”

“No papa, I don't feel hard at all.”

Unlike before, now Kedrick wants to accept the presence of Leonardo. Almost every day the man visited him, yes, since two months ago Kedrick's health began to deteriorate.

Since then Leonardo always came to see the state of Kedrick, although at first the old man really did not expect the presence of Leonardo in his home, but over time he finally got used to the arrival of Leonardo.

“Daddy what doctors say about your condition?”

“Same as before. I also do not know until when continue this.”

“I'm sure you'll recover Dad, remember that you still have Calista and Theodore.”

Kedrick was silent, and afterwards the old man seemed to smile.

“If not ... there are still you who will take care of my daughter and Theodore.”

“For so long I am filled with anger, and closing my eyes will be your regrets. I forget that every human being must have a mistake, just how he responds, wants to change or continue to make the same mistake."

Kedrick grabbed Leonardo's hand and gave him his ring.

“I'm giving this to you. The previous emperor gave it to me, now it may be time for this ring to return to its owner”

“I don't feel my age will be long. Even to get out of bed it feels so hard.”

“Dad don't say that, I'm sure you'll be cured.”

“Don't encourage me like that, I'm so old.”

“Can you replace me write a letter to Calista? Tell her that I'm fine, and there's no need to worry about me.”

“Dad I can write a letter to you, but will convey the facts in his letter not a lie, Calista herself will definitely not like Daddy lying to her.”

Kedrick smiled again, “Alright, you can write his letter in my place, and just give it to the butler, he will send it to Calista."

Leonardo nodded.
