Chapter 3- love and quest
The man then smiled and said 'you were always like me; we had some much in common but you always thought that I loved Roslyn'. I was confused I never thought that Al liked me I've always believed that Roslyn and Al were made for each other. I asked Al why everyone was making a big deal out of the dress. At first, Al didn't want to tell me but after asking him loads of time he answered. I was told that the dress I was wearing was the dress that Al's grandma had chosen for Al's bride. I dropped my goblet. The whole room went silent I ran to the garden. Then Palmerio looked at his son in disappointment and started running to me, father and Al joined him only Al could stop me He found me on the moon dance stage of the garden. Mother had told me of this place I was born here. I was petrified I had come to the kingdom to help my father not get married. Especially to my best friend's lover.
I was crying so had that all the salve in my mouth was draining out of my eyes. The tears were falling like snowflakes that were disappearing once they touched the warm ground. Al sat next to me I moved up on the bench. He seemed confused and devastated. Without making any contact he started talking," My mother has always preferred you more than Roslyn. I personally asked mother to let you wear the dress, you saved my life and I ..." His voice drowned of because father and Palmerio had found us. Palmerio said that he was the person had asked for me to assemble in the kingdom but didn't expect his son that injured. The reason was that I had come of an age of knowing the truth.
My real father is lord Gwain. Gwain had loved my mother they day she first saw him. They both loved each other and planned to spend to rest of their life together but Lord's father was a racist old man he wouldn't accept any black or brown in their family. Little did Gwain know that his heir to his ancestral grounds had started to take form in Alisana womb.The lovers fled but Gwain was found and own her own Alisana fled for a better life. In a village, Newbor, a young man around Gawain's age took Alisana as she was extremely weak. The man was no other than my 'dad'. Callidus, had slowly started developing feelings for Alisana but in her mind she still had Gwain in her heart. When she gave birth to me she was taken when she saw Callidus' reaction to wards me so caring and sweet a month after Callidus built his courage and asked to marry my mum and the answer was a yes.
Years after she meet Gwain again everything was different know good old friends. Callidus knew the truth but trusted Alisana. I moved towards the chair and sat down facing the other way of everyone. I didn't cry. Not a single drop fell. I don't cry easily unless someone has hit me hard. All the pieces of the puzzle made sense that's why he gave me the ring. Al put a hand on my shoulder I knew this was his sign hinting that he was there for me. I didn't know what came across me I held him and cried. The ground walls were toppling down like dominos. I was confused what the hell was happening to me. The king said that my birth right name is Tulika. All of Gawain's ancestral property was under my name.
AT THAT SHARP MOMENT AL WENT ON HIS KNEES AND PROPOSED I WANTED TO SAY NO BUT WITH THE ENTIRE CROWD WATCHING, I SAID YES.
He went in for a kiss but I gave him a hug, inside I could feel spikes on my throat the guilty feeling was unbearable. Though I was good at hiding it. That night my clothes and equipment was moved in with Al's room I wanted to rip his head form his ugly body. I knew I was weak but such advantage shouldn't be taken of a person at a moment like that.
