21| The Kingly Thing to Do

Cloud

I stood frozen as I stared at the man in front of me. How could I have been such a fool to not notice the very man who I had hugged every week, sat on his lap weeks ago and had now kissed twice was the KING!

I knew I was an idiot but this took the cup. I deserved to be labeled as the world's dumbest man alive because my stupidity was uncapped. I was somehow stuck between wanting to faint, run away and get the first plane ticket to Brazil where I would disappear for all of eternity or just stand there and wait for the consequences I would have to face.

Maybe the person I had kissed last week was not the King. Maybe we had just gotten confused on who we were talking to and somehow the King at that moment had confused me for someone else. He was surely going to fire me now. I should have resigned when I had the chance. I was going to get fired for kissing the King.
