Second chance at happiness No happiness is worth my family’s tears.
Mira and Jack went into the costume shop as Martin and Oden were distracted with the shop selling garden tools. Mira got a wig with shoulder length hair and sideburns. She also bought thick eyebrows and a pair of glasses for Jack to wear. They returned discreetly and stood behind Oden and Martin. “Fancy anything?” Jack asked with a chuckle as he saw them standing pensively. “No… we were just waiting for you.” Martin shrugged. He wanted to buy something for Mira and Jack, but he didn’t know what and soon gave up the idea. They wandered through the streets chatting and munching on snacks they bought from street vendors. Mira bought 2 brown, 2 dark grey, 1 wide brimmed dark green and 1 grey hat when they reached the hat shop. Oden and Martin looked curiously at Mira who had gone crazy buying hats. Jack stood back with a doting smile; he knew who the hats were for as he saw the colors. Next, they wandered into a shop with hair accessories, and she bought 4-pointed petal hair bun metal
Second chance at happiness How can you be so boring?
Old master Slegh was furious when he saw his useless men who came back injured without achieving their goal. It would be a lie to say he that was not scared by the knowledge that Dame Killion’s men were escorting them. He summoned his sons. “Look at this bunch of useless scum you have nurtured.” He didn’t forget to throw a tantrum at them when they arrived. No one of them responded. They stood with their heads lowered. “Did you hear?” Old master narrowed his eyes “Dame Killion’s men were escorting the bastards.” “Um” Cain nodded “I just heard.” “How come you didn’t tell me about it before?” Old master threw a vase at Cain in a rage. “Father, I only came to know about it now.” Cain dodged the vase and shook his head helplessly “Previously, we didn’t know whose men it was… they just jumped out from nowhere….and didn’t have any coat of arms… just a black cloak.” “Do you think she will win?” Old master hooked his eyebrows in annoyance. “She is very good at embroidery.” Cain continu

He didn’t stay long. He got the dresses and came straight back. He saw a suspicious looking woman sneaking around their manor when he returned. “Who are you?” Jack knitted his brows in annoyance. “I… I …” Muriel stuttered “Is this Mira’s house?” “Who wants to know?” Jack wasn’t polite. He didn’t like the woman. “I …I…. I am… I am ….” Muriel hesitated a few times before blurting “I am her friend’s mother.” “Mira doesn’t want to see anyone.” Jack pursed his lips in annoyance as he figured out who the person in front of his was. “Please… please… I beg you.” Muriel fell to her knees. “Please let me see her. I won’t cause you any trouble.” Jack hesitated without opening the door. “Please… son, I beg you.” Muriel bowed to the ground in front of Jack’s feet “Just tell her that I want to see her desperately. If she refuses, I will go back without making things difficult for you.” “My wife is sleeping. You will have to wait till she wakes up.” Jack informed rudely as he opened the door
Second chance at happiness I am truly at peace.
Mira and Jack reached the dungeon where Alina was held towards late afternoon. “Mira, you came??” Alina ran to the bars in excitement as she saw Mira. “What do you want?” Mira put on a rude front even though she was shocked by Alina’s state. “Nothing.” Alina shook her head helplessly before whispering “Just your forgiveness but if you can’t, I will understand. I won’t forgive myself if I were you.” “There is nothing I can do to help, now that things have come to this.” Mira narrowed her eyes thinking if this was an act. “I know.” Alina’s eyes were clear unlike other times when they were full of schemes. “I have only got what I deserve.” Alina started talking “I have had enough time to reflect. Even if what my mother said was true and we were sisters, my actions were not justifiable. You were innocent.” “I could have asked your father openly instead of trying to vent my anger on you two.” “All things aside” Alina raised her head to stare into Mira’s eyes “I had truly fallen in l
Second chance at happiness When did you become wise?
“This is so pretty.” Joan fawned blinking with feigned innocence. “Your parents might also be coming.” Caster paused “Do you want to ….” “No need.” Joan interrupted and feigned a regretful expression “They won’t accept me anymore.” The real reason was she wanted to enjoy the glory Caster’s reservation would bring. She knew that her poor parents would be seated somewhere in the outskirts of the room if they ever made it to the event. She also knew she couldn’t sit with Caster, but she could still sit in the best seat for commoners. The seating arrangement was divided into classes, the prominent seats for grand dukes, grand dames, dames and dukes along with their families. The next seats would be reserved for nobility and the rest for commoners. Among commoners, there was no distinction between servants and freemen, except who ever registered first would get a better seat. There was a box which was close to nobility reserved for families of the contestants, but again it was a first co
Second chance at happiness Wife, what about me?
“OH MY GOD … OH MY GOD….” Anne-Marie started shrieking as she saw the pretty sky-blue dress... she was the first to open the parcel. “My dear child…” Beth sighed helplessly as she opened hers. She didn’t know what was wrong with this girl… although her heart felt sweet when she thought that Mira care for her as much as her folks… no she considered them as her own… “This…. Good Lord!” Beth shrieked as she saw the gown that was meant for her. It was a beautiful…. Prettier than any she ever owned…. It was probably even prettier than the silk gowns of those madams even though it was only fine linen. “Aunt, the material….” Mira lowered her head with a pout and muttered “Not long… I promise I will make you a silk gown. “Child, what are you talking about??? This is so pretty…” Beth caressed her dress fondly. Matthew and Harry’s reaction was probably the calmest… John, Martin and even Oden’s eyes were misted…. On one side, their own sister was making things difficult for them… and here wa
Second chance at happiness My wife can only ride with me.
“My husband still looks handsome!” Mira sighed with a dreamy look leading to another bout of laughter. “Since everyone’s ready, let’s go.” Jack chuckled to hide his embarrassment. “I am afraid my looks won’t match the cart outside.” Harry straightened his back and lifted his chin arrogantly. “Ha… ha…. ha…” Everyone laughed while Agnes chided “What are you making a fuss for old man? You are not half as handsome as my son-in-law.” “Ha…. ha…. ha….” “We were thinking of walking to the carriage ride stop and getting a ride to the city.” Mira spoke once the laughter died down. “No… no….” Beth shook her head “That will cost a lot of silver.” “Mom, I will pay for everyone.” Martin tapped his chest proudly as he remembered the coins he had in his pocket. Jack was about to refuse when Mira nudged his hand and shook her head. She didn’t want to hurt his self-esteem. “Alright.” Beth nodded happily; She was worried about burdening Jack… she also felt proud that her son could afford a ride

“Excuse me.” Mira smiled politely as she got hold of the attendant. “Madam” He bowed respectfully. “Can you only charge 1 gold coin for our room and hand the rest of the charge to my husband on the sly?” “Madam, is your husband the handsome lord?” “The one you spoke to when you led us to the room.” A pink shade crept up Mira’s cheeks as she heard the man describing Jack. “Sure” The man smiled brightly and bowed “Anything for a pretty lady.” Mira slipped back into the room with a happy smile. It was so rewarding to see everyone’s happy face. “Little Mira, what are we celebrating?” Harry asked with a boisterous smile as the attendant filled his wine goblet. “Just family.” Mira smiled with a shrug. “To family” Harry raised his goblet. “To family” Everyone raised their goblets and drank in one gulp. “Your best dishes.” Jack ordered as the attendant came to take their order. He was confident that he would be able to pay. He had the 5 gold sheets Mira had given him earlier in the
