I am here in the room prepared just for me.
Just across from my room, Clover and Dimple's room.
Many things bother my mind, it my mother, the woman in the picture? or is it just my imagination?
But my mind whispers something else. So I didn't think twice, I needed an answer to my questions.
I know only queen Maria can answer this.
I arranged myself first before I left my room. I knew that at these times they were asleep.
Clover and Dimple and the other palace staff, besides the guards.
I used my ability to search, to find where the room of queen Maria was.
And when I found it, I wasted no time and disappeared towards it.
I teleported to the front door of the queen, I took a deep breath first before knocking.
But before My clenched palm touched the queen's door, it opened on its own.
"I know you have a lot of questions, that's why you came here, I know whatever it is. We'll talk in depth, in my room, so come in hija." The queen spoke, so I slowly stepped into her room.
As soon as I stepped into her room.
I immediately felt a sad and heavy aura.
How does it make me feel? Why is my chest tightening again? Why goddess of the sky?
the queen went to her veranda and gazed at the bright moon in the sky.
"What is your questions, hija?" Its a calm question. She swallowed first, before answering the queen.
"I just wanted to know who the woman in the picture, down there earlier." My polite answer her.
The queen took a deep breath before speaking.
"She's my older sister, she's Celestial Minerva Hedalgo." The queen answered her.
She almost lost her balance, because of what she heard from the queen.
Celestial Minerva Hedalgo is also the name of her loving mother.
The queen suddenly confronted her, full of astonishment that could be seen in her eyes.
I couldn't believe it. She can't be wrong! Celestial Minerva is also her mother's name. It can't be accidental?
Even she was nervous about the answer, she had the courage to ask it again.
"W..where is she now?" She asked somewhat stammeringly, the queen smiling bitterly at her before it answered her.
"It's a long story, but one day she had a creature she loved and because of her love for that creature. She left me here, role as queen. And joined that creature." I saw the queen's tears dripping as she told the story.
"But even so, I'm still hoping. I'm still hoping she'll come back here. Because....she's the only one I have. she's the only one." And she cried in her palm, so I came to her and comfort her.
"Sometimes, I just want to ask the goddess of the sky, to just take me. Because I'm so tired, I'm tired of being sad and alone." she continues her story. So I hugged her, even tighter.
"You know, Ilumina. When I first saw you, I thought you were my sister, because every time I look at you I seem to see her." She said while crying so I comforted her even more.
"Calm down, dear queen." I said.
"I hope she comes back here, and when she comes back. I know, I already have nephew and niece with her. And when she comes back, I will wholeheartedly accept her along with her offspring." Her breathtaking words.
why am I hurting?
Yet I secretly used my magic on her.
So I could see, the slow closing of her eyes, due to the effect of my power.
I laid her down neatly on her bed with the help of my magic and I stroked her.
I gently caressed her soft hair.
"How can I tell you, that I am one of your niece? Will you be happy?" I asked my sleepy aunt Maria.
"Do you know? I'm so happy now. Because of this place, I found you here. I'm so happy that I have a relative here. Mother is also very lucky with you, because she has a very kind and very loving sister" I unaware that my tears, were already dripping. I caressed her smooth face and spoke again.
"I promise Aunt Maria, that I will introduce you formally with my brother, and together we will visit mother in the tower." I said tearfully and kissed her on her forehead before leaving her room.
I went to the roof of the palace and sat watching the bright moon.
Dear goddess, why am I hurting for my aunt Maria? Why does she need to be hurt? My chest hurts when I see her sad.
How can I tell her that my mother is gone? Because of me, her loving sister is gone.
Because of me!
I cried in my palms and looked up at the sky again.
Goddess of heaven I want to ask you to remove from my aunt's the sadness and pain.
just give it to me, I won't complain.
Dear goddess of the sky
CLOVER (POV)
I saw her just coming out of the queen's room, but she suddenly disappeared. So I looked for her outside the palace but she was not there.
There is only one I know she will go to, whenever she wants to be alone.
I transform like a bird, to go to the top of the palace and I wasn't wrong because I saw her crying.
I suddenly felt a pain in my chest as I watched Ilumina weep silently on top of the tower under the bright moon.
Why always her, goddess of the heaven? Why always my best friend?
SOMEONE (POV)
Where you're happy Clover, I'm happy too. Even this is the most painful, I will be numb for you.
Seeing you hurt for her, it’s like I’m being crushed.
But I am always here, even its hurt. I am fine, cause I am strong.
I silently crying here as I watch my mate hug the woman he loves so much.
It must be me, not her. I don't need to fell regret or sad at all, cause I am still his mate.
And that's what I'm going to hold on...
A/N: I cried at the moment with Ilumina and Maria 😭 by the way guiz, more revelation and also more drama too come.
