DESTINY GIRL

Axel Not Satisfied

Some traders who leave early in the morning to the market take carts or are pushed. They looked at Mariana in wonder. Why is the girl crawling witnessed by so many people ? They did not recognize the Queen and the soldiers because the day was not yet light.

At a distance of 100 steps from the palace gate, a rooster crowed in the distance. Mariana hastened the crawl. He no matter if there are citizens who see or not, his eyes are fixed towards the palace.

The soldiers gave him a round of applause.

" Come lady...... A little more until "

" Don't give up.... ! "

" We are with you..... "

Mariana chuckled despite panting. It's getting excited. He crawled up while looking at the palace gate full of hope.50 steps more.

The sun in the eastern horizon looks like it's peering at Mariana. Mrs Marco kept walking while crying. The flying queen ordered the bodyguards to open the palace gates. Mariana's punishment would have been resolved by itself if she had entered the palace grounds.

Mariana crawled happily closer to the Queen. He took a deep breath because it was done. The soldiers and Marco's men cheered happily.

" Miss succeeded..... "

" Great lady..... "

Madam Marco was crying hugging Mariana.

" Mom.. I did it.... ! "

Her father stroked Mariana's head.

" Dad... I succeeded, my mouth no longer stinks.... ! "

The queen smiled at them. He approached Mariana and extended his hand. Mariana greeted. His eyes instantly closed when a warm stream entered his body. He fell asleep soon. His body rests on Mr. Marco.

" Lord Marco, Mariana has exceeded the limits of her own body's strength. I've treated him. But he needs to rest for 3 full days. Take him home. Be well-educated so as not to repeat the same mistake "

" Thank you, Queen. The servant promised to educate him even better "mister Marco's promise.

Due to Mariana's exhausted condition, Mr. Marco told the guards to take the train home. They returned to the residence by car.

While the merchants in the market started talking about a girl who crawled on the road to the palace early in the morning.

The women of the capital shopping were some who witnessed the events of the match on the city grounds. They were disappointed not to see Mariana serve her sentence.

The conversation was also heard at Rey's inn. They heard the servants talking about it.

" Miss.... Mariana has already carried out her sentence. He said the Queen and the soldiers were with him ", said Zigaz.

" It's okay, I'm sure he has realised his mistake and will change better.... "

" Ssh.

" I don't think you're the only one who's disappointed, but the girls who don't like Mariana" Rey said.

At the palace the soldiers who accompanied Mariana last night also told her about it at breakfast so the waiter also heard it.

Axel who heard the news decided to have breakfast with his father and mother.

" Mother....... I heard you can help remove Mariana's curse ? Why can't you remove the curse that has befallen me ?! " ask Axel annoyed.

" Mom didn't help him, son....... Mother only accompanied him to serve his punishment until he entered the palace gate. I can't erase the curse anyway. Mariana literally crawled from the city square to the palace "

" Improbable.... ! The spoiled girl princess of nobility where might have such power ! " Axel's inflamed.

" Mariana's determination enabled her to complete her sentence. It starts from midnight to morning. Rest and drink repeatedly. Mother only helped heal the abrasions in her knees and hands" explained the Queen.

" Then what about me ? Don't you have a way to handle it. Should I suffer like this forever ?! " appoint Axel on her swollen red cheek.

" You can ask Princess Rey the terms. Better meet him and apologize..... "

" ttd..... ! Hhhhh......... ! "

Axel got up leaving the dining table with a bad face. The Queen glanced at the helpless King. The King only sighed while stroking the Queen's back.

Axel darted out of the palace. Today he has to meet Rey. He will force Rey to lift the curse that sticks her magic slap. If necessary, he would threaten by taking hostages or injuring one of the youths who had always been nearby.

Rey and Zigaz walked leisurely towards the town square. They just had breakfast at Trezzy's restaurant. Asgar curled casually around Zigaz's neck. He spoke the language of the serpent.

" oom...... Missy. Can I just turn into a squirrel ? "

" What's your excuse.... ? " reye replied in a whisper.

" I can help Zigaz hit an opponent during a fight "

" No.... ! Axel is too strong. You can't be physical with him, just mess with his concentration "

" jsyshh.......... " Asgar stuck out his tongue in disappointment. Zigaz just smiled a little.

" Miss. The white witch " whispered Zigaz to Rey.

Asgar looked back. He peeked out from among the collar of Zigaz's robe.

" That's Prince Axel. She's with Miss Thalia. Looks like they're fighting ? " report Asgar.

" It's common.... Miss Thalia likes Axel's character. But Axel doesn't like it " replied Zigaz.

" I'm sorry to see that girl wasting her time chasing that guy. They're not a match "Rey grumbled softly. It was as if she felt a sense of Thalia that Prince Axel had never noticed.

While they continued to pass through some small taverns on the edge of the city square, Prince Axel still grumbled and said words that hurt Thalia. His gaze continued towards Rey in the distance.

Rey and Zigaz stopped by one of the taverns. They are waiting for Axel to arrive. Sure enough, Axel came with Thalia. He sat down with an angry face. While Thalia was dumbfounded looking at Rey.

His forefinger pointed straight at Rey, preparing to cuss.

" You..... ! "

" Silence.... ! " Axel brushed his hand off violently. Thalia stunned.

" Why are you defending him. Looky.... He doesn't even think of you as a lover..... Even sitting with another young man...... "

" Be quiet and shut up... ! I don't need your opinion.... ! " reprove Axel upset.

" Are you blind Axel..... ? " ask Thalia. His voice began to rise.

" You're the blind lady. What makes you like it.... ? " tanya Zigaz quipped back.

" You..... ! It's none of your business.... ! I like him because he's my Prince, mine..... ! " Thalia looked down at Zigaz.

" Take it home, then... ! I don't want it " said Rey casually.

" Braaaka..... !! " Axel kicked the table in anger. He looked at Rey and Thalia in turn. These two girls made him dizzy.

" Come home.... ! I've got a need with him "Axel's trying to get Thalia out.

" Lied..... ! You just want to be alone with her "Thalia looked at Axel suspiciously.

" Heiii....... Don't forget me...... " Zigaz waved his hand in front of Thalia. Thalia brushed it off in annoyance. (Asgar chuckles silently ).

" You're useless, just a butterfly (conversationist) "Thalia scoffs at Zigaz.

" AH...ha...ha....ha............ Then you what ? Goat bolsters ?! " snake Zigaz back.
