"Isn't she the most cutest baby in the world?" Fayra asked, Touching the new born baby with her weak body yet gentle touch.

"If you don't have any name's yet milady i actually have! I have so many names in my head!" The other maid said.

"It's Atarah... Atarah ixchel demos bobeveron" She answer.
.

"Woah! That's so beautiful!" The maid start complementing the baby's name. Fayra just start admiring her baby.
.
.
Soon after. The sun goes down.
.
.
"You came..." A gentle voice. Asking the man who just appeared from the balcony of the room.
.
.
"Yeah..." he answer
.
Baby atarah start to cry again...
.
.
"What's up with that thing? What a bother..." He said while standing and just watching fayra calming the baby.
.
.
"This is my angel... Atarah..."
.
.
"Why do you want that thing to live? You choose that thing over your life?" He start to yell but fayra didn't bother about it. She just give him a sweet smile before looking away.
.
.
"This child is my life... I love her that's why i choose her... I already experience to live but this small child not... That's why i give her a chance..."
.
.
"In short you don't want to live anymore?"
.
Fayra didn't answer, she just playing the hand of her baby. She can hear him sigh and found guilty.
.
.
"What about the emperor? Did he know about the child?" his voice become more calm
.
"Of course! After all she's his majesty one and only daughter! I'm sure he will love this child with all his heart"
.
.
The man didn't feel at ease when fayra answer.
.
.
"By the way... can i request you something?" Her voice start to get serious.
.
.
"What is it?"
.
"Can you take care of this child?"
.
"What!? What do you mean!?"
.
"I just want you to look after this child... While I'm not here anymore, can you take care her for me?"
.
.
A big sigh came out before he answer
"Sure..."
.
.
Fayra smile start to bright again. When she hear him.
.
"Thank you"
.
.
"By the way, does the emperor visit you?"
.
"No."
.
"What the! Why!? He's a father! how could that shit leave you alone in the dark?!"
.
.
"It's okay... Maybe he's just busy today that's why he didn't came..." A hope in her voice.
.
.
"Jeez... Seriously! This is giving me a headache..."
.
.
"Haha you can rest now... i know you're tired."

"Fine... Be safe, good night" He said before vanishing.
.
.
'You too... good night... forever"
.
"It's just the two of us now... atarah... my baby... i hope i can live more to be with you"
.
.
"Your father is going to love you... He looks scary but he's actually kind... I promised that. "
.

"You innocent little thing..." Playing with her little hands and a sweet smile in her face. The baby's laugh was the best thing fayra heard.
.
.
"Should mama sing a song for you? Yes? Yes...Haha okay"
.
.
"I can hear the flowers bloom~

A sweet romance, no poison~
Making me feel no pain~
Two of a kind, you and me~
My sweet baby~
You are everyday of my life~
Sweet, sweet little honey child~
Got a little bit of honey child~...."

"So this is where've you been?" Eziprix appeared out of no where.
.
.
The book from my face fall. I just realized that i have fallen asleep in the library.
.
"Why are you here?" i asked
.
Ah my head hurt's. What's up with that dream i can't even remember.
.
I saw eziprix pick up the book that just fallen from my face.
.
.
"How to control your magic?" He looks at me. Angry jerk.
.
"Why? what's wrong about reading how to control a magic?" irritate
.
.
"I've already explained to you. You can control your magic if you're not young anymore..."
.
"I'm just reading it okay no need to be so serious about that...And what's wrong being advance?"
.
.
"I don't trust you... and i know what is running inside that little head of yours..."
.
.
Booo!!! Fine he gets me.
.
He sat down next to me and stared at me.
.
"What are you looking at?" I asked
.
He didn't answer but he just flicked my forehead.
.
"Hey! That was really hurt!" i shouted
.
"Your magic and mana are overflowing...stop what are you thinking, that's dangerous for your life. Do you what to end your life again?"
.
.
I look at him with a confused look on my face.
.
Again? What does he mean by that?
.
.
"No." my only answer.
.
.
I grab eziprix hair and brush it with my hand.He don't mind me touching his hair. I thought he's going to bark again if i touch his hair but no. His attention was on the book. Until i think about my dream. What was that all about? The only thing I've remember is a lady. I don't know the rest.
.
.
I'm trying to remember my dream when eziprix suddenly grab my cheeks facing me with his shook expression.
.
.
"What?" I asked
.
"What do you think your doing? I told you not to think about that!" He said
.
"What?! What do you mean? I'm just trying to recall my dream? what's up with you?"
.
.
"Even it's a dream stop thinking about it."
.
"Why?"
.
"If you continued to recall that dream, your mana and magic are going to overflow until it's reach your limit and face your death!" he explained.
.
I felt shiver down to my spine.
.
Why does i feel like everything i do, the death is always on my door.
.
I stood up ang walk out.
.
"Huh? Where are you going?" Eziprix asked. He came down and walk towards to me.
.
.
"To papa...I'm going to see papa why?"
.
"Again? But i want you to play with me instead of going to the emperor just to waste your time staring to his face" He yelled.
.
What is this dude talking about? Do you want me to play hide and seek with you?
.
.
I give him a disgust look before answering.
.
"The heck are you talking about? we're not even playing...We're just reading and reading all over." I answered.
.
.
"Don't you have a task?" I asked
.
I start to walk again and this guys just grab my hair while walking. Dude stop.
.
.
"I do...that's why i came here to rest.. yet your just going to leave me then" He said.
.
"Why don't you rest the tower?"
.
"Nah~ I don't wanna...those people are so loud"
.
.
I didn't answer after that, We're just keep walking and walking.
.
.
"Why don't we met the dog?"
.
"Huh? Who's dog?"
.
"Azriel the brat... You don't wanna?"
.
Is he teasing me!?
.
"W..Wait!! No--"
.
But before i refuse he already flicked his fingers and transported out of no where.
.
I open my eyes finding that we're hiding somewhere.
.
"Where are we-" I asked yet eziprix cover my mouth.
.
.
"Shh..."
.
I look to what eziprix looking, and it's azriel and eileen sleeping together in the sofa.
.
.
"Ahh..Jeez what a bad timing to visit the dog house"
.
You don't really hate them don't you? To call them dog...is a bit...umm...
.
.
He flick his fingers again.
.
.
"Now now, I'm going back to the tower" he said and disappear.
.
I didn't even have a chance to say bye.
I look around and found myself in front of papa's work room. Nice one ezi..
.
I knock but i also open the door.
.
.
"Papa?" I peek through the door.
.
.
He didn't answer but already saw him.
So i run to his direction and hug him.
.
.
"Greeting to princess atarah from duke visqor, your highness"
.
.
Why i didn't notice him? I just give him a look.
.
.
"You're dismissed Duke visqor" Papa said.
.
"Yes your majesty" then he begun to walk out.
.
.
Avius lift me up and put me down to his leg.
.
.
"Daddy~" I said and kiss him to the cheeks.
.
.
"What's wrong with you today?" He asked
.
.
"Hmm~Nothing i just miss you already" I said with a sweet voice.
.
This is the first time i see eileen's face..I feel really down seeing her even though she's just sleeping. She sure a lovely child.
.
.
"If you said so... I'll asked the maid's to bring us our dinner" he said
.
.
"Thank you papa!" and tightly hug him, he just pat my head.
.
.
I'm going to be selfish for the first time. And wishing that avius didn't like eileen if duke visqor has a plan to introduce her to avius... My life is already in the edge of the cliff and one more push I'm down. I don't have anything to wish but just this one. I'd never been so selfish in my entire life. So let this wish work out!
.
.
And Several Year's Later.
