Chapter Six

The cave was well crafted that the entrance couldn't be seen .

Standing right in front of it ,it looked like a straight wall with no bends or curves .

Lydia could not find it on the map either .

The place was silent as it began drizzling all of a sudden .

If there's nothing here ,why would a cave like this be kept in such thick bushes ? ,Sara said shivering because of the cold weather .

Her cloak was not enough to soak the drizzles from the rain and Alexa had triple cloaks on since the cold weather was not good for her unborn child .

Since Krystal loved rains ,she didn't find any problem with the weather .

There was no palanquin for Queen Romina and Queen Marga to settle in at that moment so they had to bear with the cold weather .

Rubbing their palms against each other , they obtained heat ,and they beared with the weather .

"If there's nothing here in this wall or cave whatsoever ,why don't we create a tent and stay under for a while .

Maybe ,this cave might miraculously open for us ,Laura added rubbing her hands against each other and smearing it on her face ."

"I'm hungry ,Lydia growled. Even after chewing five apples during the journey ,she still complained of extreme hunger .

Much food was not taken along as well as tents and other staffs because Myel promised to wait for her sister right at the outskirts of Ulka Kingdom but she wasn't here when they got there .

This left Krystal worried and she kept pacing back and forth ."

The birds chirped and twittered all while long and Wales and his men were on guard in case of anything .

They wandered about for the entrance but found nothing .

They kept rounding the whole cave but still ended up looking at it's straight face .

A splint of fear splashed on them like ices but Krystal kept her instincts high .

"Where are you, Myel ? ,she thought twisting her fingers and pacing around the place .

Just when she thought of giving up on her instincts ,she firmed her toes hard to the ground .

"Where are you Elmy ? ,your Talsy is waiting for you .

I know you are here ,show up ,she twisted her pendant nervously as goose bumps spread all over her body .

Please show up ,she shut her eyes tightly still hanging on to the pendant and muttered ."

Suddenly ,to their outermost shock ,a door opened .

Krystal turned around and looked at the direction of the opened door from the cave ; they thought it was a wall with no entrances but now ,it had opened up in the most shocking and stunning way they could think of .

"Krystal ...Krystal...Krystal .....the voice echoed as a sweet thin and melodious voice said from behind .

Krystal had to run over her soft hands on her face in order to clean the rain water from her face .

Once she did that ,she could now see clearly the reflection in front of her as well as Laura's lookalike ."

"M -Myel , the unbidden tears which had welled up in her eyes due to the frustration of not seeing her sister again all crashed down into unstoppable tears and they began to flow freely down her cheeks .

Krystal !

Myel called out running towards her sister hastily .

She wasn't going to miss this chance of being with her sister at all .

They hugged each other in all sorts of emotions .Their golden ecstatic hairs and bright almond eyes shone like morning stars .

I can't believe this ,Krystal held Myel's soft cheeks in her hands and embraced her tightly .

They were interrupted when Alexa ran towards her Yelly and hugged her not leaving Lauren who had her long lost sister ; Laura , in her arms .

Composed of emotions ,everyone joined in embraces as they moved into the cave .

.... ....

Is this where you guys have been all this while ? , Krystal asked Myel holding her hands happily .

She couldn't hide her bunch smiles and happiness after seeing her long lost sister again .

The last time they spoke to each other face to face was when they were eight years .

Myel told her sister to come and rescue her with her prince charming with a host of fireflies and she came years later .

"Myel ,why did you keep us waiting for long ?

I almost lost hope in finding you ,I thought my plans of running away from that old decayed teeth man of a husband has failed .

Hey ,why did you do that ,huh ? ,Krystal shrieked at Myel but then ,her smile was just amazing .

Sniffs ...you know you scared me Myel ,I thought it was over ,Krystal said and Myel just had to keep her in her embrace .

Between the two of them ,Myel was the strongest ,she could keep her emotions in check but then ,Krystal couldn't do that .

Knowing her sister very well ,Myel didn't want to bother her much so she had to change the conversation to something else so that her sister feels better .

It's been about eight years of separation and she wasn't going to let the chance of seeing her sister's smile always slid away .

Erm ...Krystal , don't you think I'm lacking something here ? ,Myel wriggled her slender body and held her long golden ecstatic hair into a ponytail .

What are you lacking here sissy ? , Krystal said throwing her eyes about .

She could see nothing except for Wales who was busily wringing his hair .

Queen Marga and Queen Romina had changed into new sets of clothes provided by Myel .

Alexa was busy learning lullabies which she would sing for her baby .

Lydia and Sara were busying themselves with the ornaments in the cave ; they were even crafting some new ornaments for the cave .

Laura and Lauren were sharing past memories of what they had been through out all these years of separation .

The cave was a palace on its own containing several rooms and everything that was needed to make a home so it was easy to change into new pairs of clothes . Myel had them arranged already .
