Chapter- 4

Aric hid and stared listening the words from inside. That was Elina, who was talking to herself.

Elina - " Thank God. No one heard my shout just now. This body has a incurable disease. Even in 21st century, no one can cure this. After all it's blood cancer in last stage. But the original owner of the body, the queen wanted to hide this disease, when she knew this, it was some months after Dicky's birth. That's why she was acting rude. So that everyone thinks that she is an evil person and no one thought good for her, because she gave them the right to do so. So that even if she dies, no one have to be sad for her and the kingdom will be happy forever. She heard that his son will be murdered too and after that she died. So she begged me for help and I foolishly agreed. How can I prove that the 2nd wife of the king, Soury, killed the queen and is trying to kill Dicky too with her terrible reputation? No one will believe me. How can I prove that the two most trusted servents of the queen were wrongly accused and planned to be murdered by that bitch concubine Soury. She even gave her most trusted servents to the queen to gather informations about her daily life and murder her without leaving any proof. What a bitch! No one is gonna believe me. Not even the king. Because he loves that bitch so much. He will think that I am saying this out of jealousy. But I have to prove this, otherwise, Dicky will be killed by that evil concubine Soury, who lives like her name, totally sour, yak. What a headache! I can only live for 40 days starting from tomorrow. Then I will die out of disease. Sigh! Actually I pity the queen. She is such a loving and caring person. Sigh! I can't be like her. But how can I gather all solid proof before dying. Uff! I can't work now. This body is too weak. Let's start working from tomorrow. I will rest today. Otherwise with this body's physical condition, I won't last long. What a trouble! Sigh! Anyways, fighting Elina, you can do it. You are a genius after all. "

Aric was shocked. He went to the imperial doctor to confirm.

Aric - " What happened to the queen? "

Imperial doctor ( Id ) - " Nothing, my lord. My lady is totally fine. "

Aric - " Tell me the truth. "

Id - " ( With hesitation ) It's the truth, my lord. "

Aric - " I want to know the truth, not lies. "

Id - " ( With fear ) Nothing happened, my lord, really. "

Aric - " ( Angrily ) I'm giving you one last chance. I will kill you right away, if you lie again. "

Id - " My lady has an incurable disease, we don't even know what kind of disease is that. No one cure it. Not even a miracle doctor. She has only 40 days starting from tomorrow, to live. "

Aric broke down and finally realized his mistake. He returned to his residence and cried so much. At the same time he was very angry with his 2nd wife, Soury, whom he loved the most in the past. He started to hate Soury, and gather evidence against her. At the same time he was counting the upcoming 40 days of life of the time traveled loving soul, Elina.

( 1st Day )

It was the prince Dicky's 6th birthday. In the morning Dicky went to the Queen's Residence. Elina was still sleeping. Dicky was going to wake her up. But Aric came in time and stopped him.

Aric - " Happy birthday, my son. May God fulfill your all wishes. We will celebrate your birthday with a party tonight. What do you say? And in this party your mom will also come. "

Dicky - " Wow, dad. It's amazing. Thank you so much. But now I am going to collect wishes from mom. May be she forgot my birthday. "

Aric - " Wait. How can she forget your birthday? She is such a loving and caring person. It's just that she is I'll, so that she is resting. Are you gonna wake her up for this matter? "

Dicky - " No, not at all. "

But because of the noise, Elina woke up.

Elina - " Good morning, Dicky. And Happy birthday my dear son. Many many happy returns of the day. "

Dicky - " Thanks a lot, mom. "

Elina - " Good morning, king Aric. "

Aric - " Good morning. But you don't have to call me King Aric. Just call me Aric. "

Elina - " Well, okay. BTW, I have a gift for you, my son. "

Dicky - " What is it, mom? "

Elina - " It's a surprise. I can't tell you now. "

Dicky - " Then give it to me, mom. "

Elina - " All right. But first you have to promise that you will keep it a secret. Only you, dad, and I will know about the gift. "

Dicky - " Okay, mom. I promise. But I can't wait now. Give it to me first. "
