Folktown, a small but forgotten town with not less then four hundred population, the residents are actually the reason it was forgotten in the outside world. They rear animals, they plant crops, they plant trees, they have builders, they have a school, they have a very big church, they have a clinic, they have a library that holds all history, they have traders and so they have everything life could offer but little money, not that they care since one is ready to accept a basket of vegetables or a livestock, or four stacks of hay, or a portion of farmland or as little money as possible as payment when they work for you.Having all life could offer, they have no reason to go to the outside world except for the clinic who gets their resources from outside town and a few farmers who has customers that buys their hays in a town not bigger than theirs called Countryside, which is about four days with their rickety old trucks which is all they could find and be able to buy. Four days j

As the day came to an end, Elaine closed the library and prepared to go to the diner where she works at night. She passed a lot of people on her way and greeted every single one of them. She finally got to the diner "good evening Mrs. Parker" she greeted as she dropped her bag on the counter."Good evening Elaine, how are you today?" Asked a black haired woman, who walked out of the kitchen carrying a tray filled with foods "mind help me serving this?"Elaine nodded "of course, where is it going to?""Oh, to Mrs Tucker and her family.""Mrs. Tucker is here?""You didn't see her on your way in?""I didn't look around. I will take these to her table then" she said and walked off with the tray."Elaine!" A beautiful blonde woman called to her when she saw her. She waved when Elaine looked at her and she walked over."Good evening Mrs. Tucker, Mr. Tucker, Van and Dan" she nodded to them before serving the dishes."How are you my dear?" Mrs. Tucker asked

"I need to return back to my family. You should go home too Elaine, he will be okay, Dr. Paige said so himself, you need the rest" James Tucker said to her."Don't worry Mr. Tucker, I'm fine here" Elaine smiled."Well, if you say so. I can't force you to leave can I?" He chuckled, he looked through the glass at the man lying in the bed breathing slowly but steadily "where did he come from? I have not seen him around here before."Elaine stood up from her chair and looked at the man too "maybe he came from Countryside?""I don't think so. Look at all his wounds, all the scratches on his body, those things can only be done by tree branches. Whoever he is, I think he came running from the woods. Look at that ghastly hole in his tummy, I wonder what did that. It's great Dr. Paige said he can treat him, if not, he has to go to Countryside to receive the best treatment, that's if he could survive till he gets there."Elaine stared at the man and sighed "I hope it doesn't co

I mean...we don't know him and if he is going to stay here till he recovers his memory, where is he going to stay?"Paige looked thoughtful "that's indeed true Elaine. I would have offered him to stay here at the clinic but as you know, we don't have enough beds here for one to be occupied for months.""Months? Isn't that too long?""Well, you never can tell. Although his memories will return but one doesn't know when so, it's better I leave it to that. Now, we need to find where he will stay till he does that. Do you know of anyone who will let him stay with them till he recovers his memories?""This is Folktown Paige, no one

Closing the library later in the evening and walking to the diner, Elaine was surprised to find out that it was already everywhere in town that there is a new stranger who doesn't remember where he comes from and she was the one that saved him and took him to the clinic. When she walked into the diner, a lot of mother's clustered around her, asking all sort of questions.

"Finally" Carlos said when he saw her entering the room "I was beginning to forget the taste of the food" he smiled.Elaine returned the smile and walked over to the table, she picked up the plate of hamburger again before she sat beside him on his bed, she resumed feeding him "I'm sorry for taking too long. Doctor Paige and I just have something important to talk about.""It's okay. I was just kidding with what I said anyway.""Mm" Elaine replied absentmindedly. Carlos watched her as she fed him, he knew something was different about her now and he wondered what it could be that doctor Paige said to her that will make her lost in thoughts. After feeding him the last of the hamburger, she returned the plate on the table still lost in thoughts.Carlos' gaze followed her "Elaine?" He called softly but loud enough for her to hear him.Elaine looked at him then "yes?""What is it?""What is what?""Why are you so lost in thoughts?""Oh" she looked at the table

Elaine asked."To see Lucy and Ben."Sh made an 'oh' sound as he picked his sister up and they left.On getting to Ben's home, they saw Lucy sitting out in the verandah, she was surprised to see them and immediately stood up, "Tom, what happened? Hilary was here looking for you. He said the Mayor asked him to come call you and that there are people in the square who came with big cars and wants to see you" she explai

Carlos picked up her hands in his, "I wanted to gain your forgiveness and after that I will," he stood up and pulled her up with him before going down on his knees whilst still holding her hands, their eyes locked, "tell you how much I really, really love you and how I can't live without you. I might be a prince already but I want to be your prince charming. To look you in the eyes and ask the one question I never thought I would ask a woman in my life. The ability to make you mine forever and to rule by my side as my queen. Elaine, I know this is not a better setting and I don't have one of the important things with me at the moment but they said it's what that it's in the heart that counts.To my people, a prince never kneels for a woman, talk more of a crowned prince" he licked his lips nervously, "but to me, you are worth more than a royal pride. I know you deserve to be asked this question in my palace with dignitaries, prestigious families and socialites surrendering us, bu

The Queen's words brought everyone around to a certain realization. It's true, Carlos will marry Elaine won't he?The unmarried ladies were brought to a certain jealousy, why is it that Elaine gets the best?The mayor's son have been after her and now she has a prince at her feet. Why does she have all the important men following her around?Carlos paid no mind to the eyes that followed him as he left. He knew Elaine won't go back home neither did she leave in the direction of the library. He remembered Carol's words of her love to go to the lake when sad and so, he went directly to the lake.When he got there, he saw her squatting with her gaze locked on the lake, he need no one to tell him that she wasn't really looking at the lake. He gently approached her so as not to startle her.He paused, watching her before heaving a deep sigh, "I know I will find you here" he saw her flinch and knew he has her attention now, "Elaine" he paused, "I'm sorry. I know I shouldn't

Carlos looked at his father's chief advisor and nodded once at his greetings.No one could believe what they just heard, Prince Carlos?They thought his name is Tom?"A-a-are you saying he is your son?" Tobias asked shocked. First of all, he doesn't want to believe that the man he is looking at is the King of England. He had known two months ago that the Prince is missing but he never, never stop to think that the nobody Thomas in his town could be the missing Prince. Why is fate playing this joke on him?William looked at him and nodded, "yes, he is my son.""B-b-but his name is Thomas!""Apparently, it looks like he had lied to all of you about his identity and name" he looked around at the faces of the spectators "my son has never been the type to throw his identity around nor use it to order people around. Sometimes even though he thought I didn't know, he always wish he can go to a desolate town where he is unknown and live just like a nobody. I guess, he foun

The Mayor don't know why but this man gives him the willies, "actually, there is a stranger here but his name is not Carlos.""What's his name?""Em, I think...""Thomas" Jasper filled in."Yes that's it" the Mayor nodded."Thomas who?""That's the thing, no one knows. You see, he arrived here in a very sorry state and had lost his memories. He doesn't remember anything but his name.""I see" the man nodded once, "how long has this Thomas been with you?""It should be five months now right?" Tobias looked at the sheriff."Yes, it's five months now" he nodded.The man offered a rare smile, "what a coincidence. My son Carlos has been missing for five months too."Everyone gasped, this is more than a coincidence right?Elaine has arrived at the venue then, Mary pulled her to herself immediately, "where is Tom?" She whispered."At farmer Ben's farm, why?""This people are looking for their son named Carlos, they think he is here. Have you seen a

what's good for her. Elaine tried to explain things to her mother but Amelia didn't want to listen, then she dropped the statement to them, "I will never approve of your marriage should you want to get married because no daughter of mine will marry a complete nobody."She stormed out of the house then in a fit of anger. Well, let's just say Amelia was not the only one that thought like that. Almost the whole town did and the older ones blamed Tom for misleading their little Elaine. And they went back to seeing him as an outsider, a stranger amongst them.Elaine was affected by that but Tom wasn't. He doesn't have much long to stay there anywhere. Lucy and Ben supported their love and gave no shit about what the town says. Ben still goes everywhere with Tom and Lucy still sees him like her son. The two couples weren't at the birthday/engagement party and they were glad they weren't, if not, they feared what they might have said when Jasper was proposing.Carlos birthda

At those four words, Elaine thought she has gone deaf, her eyes scanned the room to her mother's who was mouthing 'yes' to her and nodding and then to Jasper's mother, Mira, who was smiling and nodding to her. It wasn't long, everyone was chanting "say Yes Elaine" some "you are meant to be from the start" her eyes then met the ones she wants to see, a pair of midnight blue eyes, at that moment, a series of feelings flashed in them and then, the owner blinked and walked out of the room. No one noticed him leaving but she did because at that moment, a tear dropped from her eyes.She is hesitating to say no, she is hesitating to turn him down, Carlos told himself as he walked away. It was all his fault, he shouldn't have forced her to come to the party. No, not that, it was his fault because he has been lying to her, because he has been keeping his identity a secret. Everyone sees him as a stranger, as a nobody here and of course, they won't allow their daughter to be with him, afte
