Marianne pov contd..
Have you ever thought that you are going to have the best days of your life but end up getting the worst nightmares co true!
That was my case here. No one was taking seriously. All I was getting was ultimatums. And at the end of the day, they were all family to retaliate.
"Mari, Mari, Marianne.. Are you even listening?" Jamie jerked back to reality.
"Huh, why, what happened?" I asked as I looked both, Jas and Killian were standing in front of with worried expressions.
"Is there so problem, Mari? Why are you so lost?" asked Jamie again, tilting his head.
"I was thinking about arranging tomorrow's event. It's been days since we spent ti together and it's Killian's first ti here." although I knew that the excuse was la, I did not have much to say.
'Could i say that my own mother was trying to threaten ! Why did I always need to be the target! Why can't anyone threaten Cassius to put more effort into this broken relationship.'
He was sleeping there comfortably like a log, as if nothing happened and here I was worried as hell.
"What is there so much to think about it, we will just sit and chatter. Plans would be ford automatically according to the mood of everyone at that ti" said Jamie as he sat down and started sipping his tea.
"Killian, would you like to see the estate? It is your first ti here." i asked, as we have not talked at all. He was busy with mother all the ti, for a mont i even felt that he was ignoring .
He looked at and nodded, "only if it did not trouble you, mother."
Once again his reply surprised , since when has he been this formal with ! It was like old days have returned..
"Oh why would i be.. I am sure you would love to take a walk around. I will show you the best horses and the orchard, there I will have a picnic with mother and brother when father goes out on a trip like these.`` I suddenly felt the mories that had turned distant in my mind. How much I used to love sitting there and basking in the sunshine when mother used to sing a song for and Jamie used to monopolise her lap.
I smiled unconsciously and Jamie patted my shoulder.
"I miss that too," he said as he looked at .
"Then why don't we organise a picnic like before. Since your father is not here, we can spend all day in the orchard like before and make new mories." said mother looking at our dazed faces and the shine in them returned.
"Really," Jamie asked again, as he looked at us and we both nodded and chuckled. Who would believe that such a strong bolts man, whom people fear is a sensitive and family loving person.
"Then, shall i order the staff to do preparations for tomorrow." I asked and she shook her head.
"I have already sent the letter of invitation for tomorrow. Wait a day more, we will go on the weekend." she replied, making both of us pout and Killian chuckled.
"Well, for now why don't you show Cassius and Killian inner palace. In case they need sothing or want to go sowhere, they should be familiar with the place they are living in. in the anwhile Jamie and I will enjoy the tea" she said and i nodded.
Since Cassius was already sleeping, this was the good ti to go and show Kilian everything. Later I will ask Jamie to go with Cassius since they need to develop brotherhood too.
But didn't i say, all my nightmares were becoming true. The mont I stood up and turned, Cassius was already standing there. When did he even co! Like a phantom, he stood there all this while. Now i have no other choice but to go with them.
"Well, I will have tea. You both go on" he said and I nodded, better go before he changes his decision.
"Oh, I understand, your highness. But it will be better if you take a tour with Mari, there are many parts which are interesting here" she emphasised and Cassius could only nod as she was the mistress of the palace and the elderly one.
She smirked looking at when I gave her a stunned look. She had even denied his son of law to drink tea or beverages when he just woke up. Tch.. I rolled my eyes at her stubbornness. If love could be developed this way, it would have been developed in academy days, we would not have been here like this!
We started walking while he still looked at confused.
"I wonder if there is anything different here than the duke palace?" he asked, bewildered and even Killian looked at with curiosity. But I still wonder why he was so silent.
"Killian, you are too silent today, is sothing the matter?" I asked as we started climbing the stairs.
But he just shook his head, my brows furrowed and I looked at Cassius but he just shrugged his shoulders.
"Killian, how have you been these days?" I asked starting the conversation, since he was not taking the initiative.
"I have been good, mother. There was nothing noteworthy to tell" he replied, ending the topic.
Was he angry with that I ca here alone?
"This is a beautiful place, mother, '' he said before I could ask further.
I looked in front of , it was the music room where we were standing. There was a huge piano in front of us.
"Ah, it is. You want to hear sothing. I can play whatever you like." I offered as I walked towards the piano and sat down on the chair.
"I would love to, mother. Play any symphony you like."
I nodded and road my hand on the black and white keys that made us realise it was so easy to be together peacefully even when you have huge contrariety.
