Palm's Point Of View
"Final decision. She's going home. After what happened on your mission? I don't want this to come from me but you always expect everything from Zenith then how did you treat her before? Even Zenith not only says how she feels but she also had feelings," I explained cheerless to Warrior's Ten.
I just remember what happened and she went through failing I finished it yet. She's just a child.
"We are really sorry, Ms. Palm. We don't like what happened and even some of us were injured," Manuever replied lazily.
I looked at their leader Uno who was now still bent over. I know he also feel miserable because of the fact that he can't do anything. If this goes on, Zenith will be even more hurt in the end.
"You may have small wounds or scratches but all of that has nothing to compare with the injuries that Zenith have. If Reme wasn't here it would be even harder for us to think of a way for her to get back to normal," I remarked being a little bit harsh to them.
I have become only once like this. I used to be an admiring thoughtful Ms. Palm of them before but all of that changed when I met Zenith.
I can no longer contain the guilt I feel so I pour out on them. "I hope you also think about how she will feel. Don't judge easily in just one glance, observation is a must."
Then I left them and then went to Zenith’s house where she is now healed and resting. It was also two hours before Reme could heal her completely so even she had to rest to regain her strength.
When I entered her house it was still the same as before. It has the gloomy looks of the super quiet place and its simplicity. Zenith didn't even move the other equipment, I peeked into her room first and she's still unconscious. I need to stay here for a while to observe the change in her then to make sure that she’s fine when she wakes up.
Even if I am not her mother, the one who gave birth to her and brought her into this world I still consider her a child.
I will clean the house for a while and cook for her so that when she regains consciousness she will have food ready in case she seeks it.
While I was cooking, my phone suddenly rang on the table, I immediately picked it up and answered.
"Hello?"
"Palm … can we both talk?" I was stunned that Queen Genesis was probably on the phone.
What I did earlier to give her disrespect is a great sin. I also didn't have the chance to talk to her properly before because I brought Zenith here right away.
"Palm? Are you still there?" I heard her question so I realized.
"I'm all ears, Queen Genesis. What do you want to talk about?"
"Can you come here to my office? Let's talk personally," she replied to my silence.
I knew Zenith was the one we were going to talk about. Isn't that a great chance to be really clear to them, my decision is complete. I will bring Zenith back to them to be the Most High Develop Assassin.
"Okay, Queen Genesis. I'll be there," I said then turned off your call.
Soon after I cook, the case is there will be no one to watch over Zenith during my absence. I
heard the door open so I peeked at who you entered then I saw Vior, the rank 1 warrior. What is he doing here?
"Uno?" He rolled his eyes at me, not expecting to see me.
He immediately rang and turned slightly away. "Ahm, s-sorry, Ms. Palm. I don't know that you're here. I just want to visit Zenith so I'm here."
"She's still in bed taking some rest," I promised, informing him.
"Is that so? All right, I'll just come back mom—"
"Wait!" I stopped him.
After all, he is here again and somehow I still trust him when it comes to Zenith. He's the perfect one to stay here while I talk to the queen. I also noticed that these past few days they have always been together with Zenith.
He stopped then turned to me with his head down. "Why Ms. Palm?" he asked.
"I'm leaving to talk to the dear queen so can you stay here for the meantime while I'm gone? There's no one to watch over and feed Zenith when she wakes up and I'm gone. Stay here for a while, please …" I replied.
"But your-"
I didn’t finish him. "I know you blamed yourself for what happened, well.. you should also really blame because you couldn't stop her especially since you two are together. But still, I trust you that you will change her. That's why, You don't have to bow your head at me because it's too bad to look at a man. Okay? "
At this point, he looked at me. I just smiled to ease the tension around. He's also just like Zenith before he came here.
"Alright. I'm done cooking again so I have to go. Take care of Zenith until I get back huh? You'll take care of her, Uno." Then I turned off the gas and took off the apron.
I approached him and patted his shoulder. Before I leave, I check Zenith once again. "Be careful, Ms. Palm." I waved first before getting into the car.
